I agree with the hit/miss ratio of the last two seasons, but The Late Philip J. Fry and A Clockwork Origin are as good as anything in the first five seasons.

I've noticed in several videos that the crew member appears sweaty or shiny. Is this due to the temperature/humidity in the ISS or because the moisture doesn't evaporate the same way? I'd be interested to know if anyone has an answer.

Cargo-Bot (http://twolivesleft.com/CargoBot/) on the iPad is also very similar in teaching programming.

My university had a rule that textbooks written by the instructor had to be provided at cost. The instructor had hard copies available from the local print shop.

In another case, our professor contacted the author of the book and got cheap locally printed and bound copies. Something like $15 vs. $180.

NASA's site says launch coverage will begin at 3:30am (http://www.nasa.gov/exploration/commercial/cargo/cots_tv_sch...)

I noticed this same thing when viewing YouTube on my daughter's laptop. Oddly spammy ads where there normally were no ads.

I guess the new model for adware/malware is to try to integrate so seamlessly that a normal person doesn't even realize they are seeing someone else's ads.

The article doesn't mention radio. Is Car Talk is going to harm my child or just make him laugh at his own jokes?

@textfiles Mark Pilgrim is alive/annoyed we called the police. Please stand down and give the man privacy and space, and thanks everyone for caring.

The competition closed today :-(

The post and FAQ only mentions mobile numbers. Any idea if this is available for land lines as well?

Note on side note: CNAs are not nurses.

If you're using Java, the MS JDBC driver works just fine.

I'll second chronolapse. I've used it for reviewing my productivity at the end of a day.

Writing an extension to do remote authentication between Zendesk and Joomla.

There could be notoriety for anyone who does this to Conan O'brien. He only follows one person AFAIK.

Edit: Looks like this probably already happened.

I work with open source technology in my job all the time, and I don't think there's any danger of someone freely implementing the custom systems we need to support our clients' needs. Just because everyone knows how a wrench works doesn't mean my mechanic is fixing my car for free.

Not hard to fake typing for an unconscious person. Check out the video.

It's called LEC billing. There are several companies that serve as clearinghouses for these charges.

I've found that the biggest problem with using an exercise ball is that everyone asks you why you are sitting on an exercise ball. That and it is fun to kick.

The point is not that it is a successor to Logo, but that it attempts to reach the same goals as Logo. In playing with it on the Xbox, the programming seems more like Scratch than Logo.

On a side note, does anyone have a link to the PC version? The Kodu site states that it runs on Xbox or PC, but I can only find the Xbox version.

I wish I could find the comic (I think it was on salon.com) which stated that the best things were made when you were 14. Most people feel this way about music. It is inevitable that people feel the same about video games.

It appears that is exactly what the author (Pinch Media, http://www.pinchmedia.com/) offers. At the end of the slides it mentions that they offer these analytics when you sign up for their service.

The creator is also responsible for PyCap, a Python wrapper for the PopCap Games Framework: http://www.farbs.org/pycap.html

The World of Goo creators used the PopCap framework when prototyping their game.

The article made me realize I was reading HN instead of doing something productive. Closing browser now! Getting things done.

Link spam. The actual artist's site is http://www.alltelleringet.com/

It took me more than one try to parse the meaning from that title.

I looked up the homeowner's calculus book and realized it was the one I used in college: http://www.amazon.com/Calculus-James-Stewart/dp/0534359493
