No? You need to look at some examples in their image gallery! The graphics engine is by-far the best I have seen since a long time, even without using 3D shutter glasses.Besides, the release has not only an improved look-and-feel, but also (as usual) a lot of high-level algorithm improvements.

I recently was able to overcome my procrastination tendencies on a long back-burnered scooter club card project, and produced something that feels real. Result: I’m feeling productive! Second result: by writing about it, I can see some of the patterns that helped get me through the project. Bonus: lots of pictures. My buddy Sid started a local scooter club a while ago, and we really haven't done very much with it. However, that doesn't stop me from telling people about it when I come across another scooter rider. Problem: we don't have cards to hand out. I finally got off my butt and made an illustration for the front of the card, motivated in part by the insights I had in the Brutal Simplicity post. It ended up b...

Based on the popular Rider-Waite deck that's in widespread use, Kelleigh's deck is faithfully illustrated using an 8-bit retro computer graphic style. If you grew up with computer games in the 80s and 90s, you know what I'm talking about. Before we had millions of colors and photographic imagery on the desktop, computer artists basically had to work with what amounted to a digital Lite-Brite, hand-picking each pixel and color to create cartoony imagery. It is not unlike creating a mosaic out of tiles, with a very limited color set. People of my generation, however, remember this era of computer gaming fondly because quality games had to rely on good game play and story--or so we game snobs like to believe. Anyway, Kell...

This one allows you to scroll through every U. S. presidential inaugural address since George Washington and see the most-used words in that speech.This view of these speeches gives me the same feeling I get when I "slice" up a patient with CT or MR, and take a real-time stroll through their body from different angles. This Times chart gives a fascinating overview of the events of the times faced by each president, as echoed in their address. It also lets one to instantly dive down into the context of a given speech to see how a particular word was used.For example, the word "women" was used more than twice in only 4 of the inaugural addresses in the past 100 years: by presidents Wilson, FDR, Bush-1 a...

An ex-smoker myself, I know how very, very difficult it is to give it up. But I also know the up side of giving up the smokes and I’d encourage anyone who has been thinking about giving up cigarrettes to stop thinking and act.  You’ll thank yourself in the end.

The theme: core Mac/iPhone applications for doctors / healthcare professionals. DrCris’s post is here. symtym’s is here. Walter’s is here. Theresa’s is here. I was a bit apprehensive about posting after Tim’s masterpiece of Mac-geekery. But I decided to go ahead and post a list similar to the ones posted by Cris, Walter and Theresa. I’ll start with a short introduction about me and the kind of work that I do. I am a radiologist practising in a small city in India.

I had been putting off dealing with my medication refills due to an upcoming appointment since my insurance company makes me mailorder 3 months worth of prescriptions at a time. I didn't need that much, so I waited to see if my doctor was going to change it, so then I'd be able to fill it at my local pharmacy and I wouldn't have to go through the hassle of the mailorder process. But he wanted to refer me to another physician, so then I ran out of my medications before the referral appointment. Fortunately, my doctor agreed to write prescriptions for reduced dosages so that they would be different enough for the insurance company to pay for a local pharmacy prescription, which is fine since I ha...
