When I was a kid, I learned SO MANY math and computing concepts from Logo on the Commodore 64. Recursion was a big one. As a seasoned technologist, I'm still blown away by how much they packed into a single 170kb floppy to give a simple 8-bit computer so... show more

daniel bravo hernández discusses how observing kit connor's performance as romeo on broadway influenced his own portrayal of the character: “well, funny enough, i think watching kit connor do it every day, and i regard him as one of the best romeos that i've seen. i think there was a lot in his performance that aided me in rehearsal. the only thing that hindered me was his accent. i kept saying a lot of the words in his accent, and i was like, ‘oh man, i've got to get him out of my head.’ but so much of his choices and so much that he brought out, i didn't necessarily copy, but i was inspired by it. so, being romeo now, i'm like, ‘okay, how do i bring in some of kit, and how do i bring in a whole lot of me as well?’” 🎥:

Back in the late 1980s, a friend gave me a single floppy disk as a birthday present. He told me it was something you could put games on and actually play, and I remember staring at it all day, wondering if something that magical could really be possible. I followed him to a computer academy, and that was the first time I had ever seen a computer in my life. As a reward for bringing me in, he even got a whole box of floppy disks. That was the moment I first stepped into a completely new world. And when I saw, just like in the video, games being copied onto a disk, inserted into a computer, and actually running… the shock I felt easily ranks in my top five moments of my life.

I was listening to a sermon recently from one of my favorite teachers, Tim Keller, who sadly passed from this earth earlier this year. He was talking about the power and meaning of the words “Peace On Earth”. I was deeply encouraged and challenged to consider the significance of those words, particularly what they meant when announced by the angels 2000 years ago, and what they mean to us in 2023. As I was reflecting on all of that in light of what’s happening in my life personally with family and friends as well as in the world as a whole, I started thinking about a song I wrote a few years ago with my friend Tom Douglas called “A Desperate Benediction (Peace on Earth)” and suddenly found myself rewriting some of the words of this song, specifically related to right now...Christmas 2023. I’m not even sure as a songwriter what the rules are on this kind of a thing, but I felt strongly that I wanted to share it with you…So here you go. Peace on Earth, Christmas 2023.

One of the COOLEST things DBZ ever did was do a scene where Trunks was reminising on the fight with 17 and 18 in the present and they presented it in FIRST PERSON VIEW! I LOVED this so much as a kid and as an adult, it STILL brings me joy! And yes, Mind Power Ki.

Elon Musk: I taught myself to code from a book, then sold my own games to buy better computers. “When I was about 10, I walked into a computer store in South Africa and saw an actual computer. I previously had some early sort of precursors to the Atari system, and then I got the Atari system, which I'm sure a lot of people here have played. But then I saw you could actually have a computer where you could make your own games, and it was a Commodore VIC-20. So that was the first computer I bought. And then I got some books on how to teach yourself programming. And this was like the coolest thing I'd ever seen. So I was just like, this is super awesome. And so I started programming games and then selling games in order to actually buy more games. So a bit of a circular thing. And more games and better computers and that kind of thing. Basically I'd spend money on better computers and Dungeons and Dragons modules and things like that.” Source: Computer History Museum, Revolutionaries, January 22, 2013.

Proudest accomplishment of 2023, I’ll go first. In the world of ultra running- this is not all that special. But in my world it was the full circle of the journey from boy to man. It’s the kind of thing that even as you commit to doing it, even as I laced up my shoes I didn’t know if I was ready. It just seemed so massive and daunting. When I first took up running I was a skinny kid with stick legs that couldn’t run for more than half a mile before I had to stop and walk. But I was so damn inspired to change my life. You can do pretty much anything if you’re too stubborn to stop. 2023 was the biggest year of my life so far in a lot of ways. But these 33 hours will be some of the best of my life til the day I die. No test. No testimony baby. Bring on 2024 🎉🎉🎉

Elon Musk Elon Musk : Engineering is the closest thing to being a wizard in the real world “I guess I think of myself as a technologist or engineer. And I seem to have some skill in developing new technologies of various kinds. And when I was a kid, my favorite book was The Lord of the Rings. And I loved Gandalf. And it's like, well, what's the closest thing to being a wizard in the real world? And I think that engineering is kind of like that. It's like you make new technologies that didn't exist before. So, engineering technology that is magic. As Arthur C. Clarke would say, 'Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.'”

Jayson Tatum on his message of gratitude to the team yesterday: “It was one, just being vulnerable, showing my appreciation to the team, of how they have played this season, how they motivated me every single day. The joy and competitive nature that they displayed, I wanted to be a part of that. And I say it all the time, going through rehab and being injured is lonely. It's not intentional. I couldn't practice for a while, I couldn't be in the game. When they were on the court, I was in the weight room, having to do my own thing. So you feel isolated, in a sense. “But I just expressed that being around as much as possible, going to games, being on the plane, really made me feel like I was still very much a part of the team, and how thankful to the group for just being themselves. I was thankful to the coaches that extended their days a lot by helping me during rehab and on the court and pick-up games [for] my conditioning. So I really just kind of telling everybody in the room that they all played a part in essentially helping me get to this moment.”

It was Al Pacino's idea to remake the original 1932 version of Scarface. He saw the film and was so inspired by Paul Muni's performance, he wanted to recreate that iconic role in his own way. As he explains: "I had heard about Scarface for a long time because I was working on a play by Bertolt Brecht called Arturo Ui, which was very influenced by the American gangster picture. And I heard, even as a kid, I remember my relatives talking about Scarface and how George Raft flips the half dollar. And so I had heard a lot about it and never saw the picture. So I was one day walking along Sunset Boulevard of all places, and there was the — I believe it's the Tiffany Theatre now — and it was playing in a double bill with something else, I forget, was Scarface. And there was a few of us, so I said, well, why don't we just go and take a look at it? And we went in and it was, you know, an astounding movie, astounding. And the performance of Paul Muni was astounding and inspiring. And I thought after that, that I just wanted to imitate him. I wanted to do something. I was inspired by that performance. And I called Marty Bregman (Al's producer), who then put together some people and they started working on developing this as a film."

Steph Curry says Dorell Wright, Jarrett Jack, Draymond, and his rookie-year vets helped shape his voice and leadership style: “As crazy as it sounds, he’s younger than me, but it was Draymond. And that, my fourth year, could you imagine he was the loudest one in the room even in his first year in the locker room? And as me and his relationship grew, it kind of became important for me to make sure I elevated my voice so that he wasn’t the only one that you heard on a daily basis. It was kind of like a yin-yang kind of perspective that was necessary. Those guys that I mentioned before were more of the vets that I had that, oh Dorell Wright was another one as well who was a guy my second and third year that just had a charisma about him and connected with pretty much everybody in the locker room. So I kind of got to see how he navigated that space. And he was a champion in Miami when the time he came with us. And so, he had been around a successful veteran team so, he had seen how it’s done and even in that short time, I learned a lot from him. So yeah, between my rookie year vets, Dorell, Jarrett Jack, and Draymond, those are my guys that helped me elevate my presence, more than just the skill and the talent.” (via Fudd Around and Find Out)

.Chad Burchill on a suggestion he gave a Valve dev that was recently implemented on Inferno: "Back in Austin I was talking with one of the devs regarding Inferno and why the map is a bit uh, and obviously retakes one of the things which leads to a lot of saving, and I was saying something like Graveyard on the A site, which never used to exist back in 1.6, is an added issue, you don't even hold it as a CT, it's not a position that you use on the CT side, it's only one that you'd use on the T Side in the retake, so that was, you know, my suggestion."

The first time I started believing in black magic was when one man named Spartacus was attacked that was when I was living in Ajegunle. This man was so powerful and influential as at that time, he was called king of boys, he was so popular and powerful that, if a governor wants to enter into power, they must first consult him, I only heard of his name and fame and have never witnessed the power he carries even though I am this kind of person that never believes in black magic until this faithful day....

This is John Arnold, the best trader you've probably never heard of Starting w/ just $8M, he grew his fund to ~$5B before retiring at 38 From 2002 - 2012, his fund compounded 100%+ a year 🤯 In 06 alone, they famously made 300%+ In 07, he became the youngest billionaire at age 32 Here's his story: "At the time when Enron went down, Enron was the largest natural gas trader. I was the head trader at Enron. And so I had a very big reputation in the business. New York Times wrote a story in early 2002, talking about the amount of money that my trading book had made in 2001, which was in excess of $600 million. And so all of a sudden, it kind of validated me externally. And so I started getting a lot of calls from people saying, Enron went down. There must be a lot of opportunity in this space. Can we invest with you? And second quarter of 2002, there starts to be a new scandal hitting the papers on Enron almost every week including on the power trading side. And so that was a very different operation than what I was doing, but it was close enough to where all the potential investors kind of stopped calling me back. Because they don't know what's going on. They don't know if my track record was real or not. They don't know if I'm going to be tied up in court proceedings for years.... When I got started in the summer of 2002, I had $8 million from 3 investors one of which was me... From 2002 to 2012, we compounded over 10 years 100%+ a year on average. We had some years that were 300%, had one year that was pretty much flat, but on average. 100% a year..."

“Because I think a lot of people are familiar with you know, pop stars have these alter egos on stage and then they're also a little bit potentially different behind the scenes. Can you talk about what the difference is between those two personas?” ROSÉ: I think, you know, like I started off as, my whole career started as Blackpink and I feel like it was so much fun creating this character on stage because I'm just from like Australia, like in my bedroom, but like it was so much fun creating this like pop star, like character. It was so much fun. And then I think creating my first solo album, it was my discover of like, you know, who am I? And like when I was naming the album, I really thought a lot about it. There was like options like, you know, number one girl. And then a lot of people did like, what about Rosie? And at first I was like, it seems a bit like narcissistic. I'm not sure. And then it slowly grew on me. And then, you know, just the idea of it being Rosie because Rosé has been such a big part of my life. And that's what we present ourselves as Blackpink, Blackpink Rosé. And I felt like this was very opposite. And so I noticed that it was closer to kind of introducing a different version of me, like because it combined all the stories I would talk about with my friends and family. And they call me Rosie at home. And of course, the online name that the company had made for me from at the beginning of Blackpink, I remember when it happened was like the day before they released my picture, profile picture, they were like, Rosé. And like the name got announced.

Zack Snyder on his dyslexia: "It was a challenge for me when I was, you know, young in school, and all I wanted to do was make movies because that was the thing that I got great pleasure from and reward from. I love books, and I'm an avid reader, but I just have a hard time because of the way that I perceive. "I've had a great sort of - one side of me anyways - was really satisfied by art and drawing and sculpture and sort of visual expression. And I think that that started to, you know, was the thing that kind of made me feel un-frustrated. And also the way the system was designed, sort of not to support me when I was in high school at that time. "It was very difficult, you know, there was a lot of, you know, just, difficulty. My English teacher in high school was worried about what my career would be, and I'm like. He would be happy to know that I'm in the Writers Guild of America now. "But, I think that that all those things are, they're all... you can transcend all those things with perseverance and with interest and with with help. And I think that that's an important part of it. "And I just think I've had to adapt, and sort of... I have my own style of the way I write, I write all, you know, but I'm pretty prolific. And I love- I listen to tons of audio books on tape, unabridged hours and hours and hours. That's all I do when I'm driving in the car or wherever I'm doing. And it's helped me a lot. "And yeah, I mean, I just hope that anyone who is- feels trapped or frustrated by the world in general. You know, they need to just, I think that we all have like a magic spark, and you need to just find the thing that makes you, you know, inspires you and, and gets you excited and pursue it as hard as you can find your passion in the world.

"But, I think that that all those things are, they're all... you can transcend all those things with perseverance and with interest and with with help. And I think that that's an important part of it. "And I just think I've had to adapt, and sort of... I have my own style of the way I write, I write all, you know, but I'm pretty prolific. And I love- I listen to tons of audio books on tape, unabridged hours and hours and hours. That's all I do when I'm driving in the car or wherever I'm doing. And it's helped me a lot. "And yeah, I mean, I just hope that anyone who is- feels trapped or frustrated by the world in general. You know, they need to just, I think that we all have like a magic spark, and you need to just find the thing that makes you, you know, inspires you and, and gets you excited and pursue it as hard as you can find your passion in the world. That's a, that's a great motivator."

Robert Englund on how he was influenced by the performances of Klaus Kinski & James Cagney for his role as Freddy Kruger in "A Nightmare on Elm Street" (1984): "I saw the Klaus Kinski version of "Nosferatu the Vampyre" (1979, Herzog) with Isabelle Adjani, and I was so blown away by his work and I'm a big fan of Klaus Kinski's and so his freedom, his physical freedom in that film also influenced me to be freer and not be afraid to dance a little bit; to dance to Freddy a little bit or, as we say in the theatre, to wear the scenery a little bit. And sort of find my composition because so much of the scenery that Freddy is involved with is larger than life, it's surreal, it's the boiler-room, it's exaggerated, the set is mutating for whatever reasons and so Freddy, to kind of fill that frame, that rectangle, that picture frame, I wanted Freddy to be able to do that and kind of wear that scenery as if he was almost manifesting it himself in the imagination of whichever victim was hallucinating or dreaming it or having a nightmare in that landscape, so to speak. Yeah and that influenced me a lot and I would also use the hat a lot. I liked to use the hat to reveal the bald head - I liked to use the hat as silhouette and shadow and I liked to use the hat to hide behind. I could like literally hide my eyes from the light under the brim, and then at other times I could just barely lift my head and let the light in under the brim to catch my own eyes. So that was really informed part of Freddy, and then I think there was a little bit of Jimmy Cagney in there. There was a kind of a plant your legs wide, almost a little bit of Jimmy Cagney gangster thing. These are all like images that actors used, almost like having a bulletin board with scraps on them and they kind of inform you in your imagination and then they kind of manifest. I don't think anybody watching me would say Klaus Kinski or say Jimmy Cagney or say Bob Fosse or any of those things. But they did inform me a little bit. Because Freddy knows you're dreaming him, so it's almost like he's on stage. Freddy knows you're dreaming him and you're experiencing him as a spectre so I thought he would exploit that a little bit and milk it a little bit, you know." (Robert Englund's interview with Kwenton Bellette, Screenanarchy, 2012) P.S: Happy 79th birthday, Robert Englund!

This Veteran was driving into town. He noticed a funeral procession and pulled over. He noticed on the back of the hearse there was a USMC sticker, so he got out and stood at attention and saluted. “And as I did that, cars behind me started to honk. And they weren’t happy. I kept that salute through the honking and people scooting by…. I don’t know what kind of world we live in anymore and I don’t know if I’m created for a world that doesn’t exist anymore….So the question is, did I do what was right? Or am I just an echo from a long bygone era?” I salute you brother! You were taught and raised well, raised with respect. People don’t even pull over anymore. Not sure if they were taught to do so or they are all just in a dang big hurry like the rest of the world is to get where they need to be. Much respect for the person in the hearse and much respect for you for honoring that Veteran. Kudos brother 🤝🫡

Q: “Because I think a lot of people are familiar with, you know, pop stars have these alter egos on stage and then they're also a little bit potentially different behind the scenes. Can you talk about what the difference is between those two personas?” ROSÉ: “I think, you know, like I started off as, my whole career started as Blackpink and I feel like it was so much fun creating this character on stage because I'm just from like Australia, like in my bedroom, but like it was so much fun creating this like pop star, like character. It was so much fun. And then I think creating my first solo album, it was my discover of like, you know, who am I? And like when I was naming the album, I really thought a lot about it. There was like options like, you know, number one girl. And then a lot of people did like, what about Rosie? And at first I was like, it seems a bit like narcissistic. ..I'm not sure. And then it slowly grew on me. And then, you know, just the idea of it being Rosie because Rosé has been such a big part of my life. And that's what we present ourselves as Blackpink, Blackpink Rosé. And I felt like this was very opposite. And so I noticed that it was closer to kind of introducing a different version of me, like because it combined all the stories I would talk about with my friends and family. And they call me Rosie at home. And of course, the online name that the company had made for me from at the beginning of Blackpink, I remember when it happened was like the day before they released my picture, profile picture, they were like, Rosé. And like the name got announced.”
