Tom Cruise Vs TV Motion Smoothing

#136
Thank you Tom Cruise! For years I've preached to whomever would listen how that stupid setting on HDTVs make things look crap! Finally, Tom Cruise and his Hollywood mates have come to my rescue to tell the world that motion smoothing is wrong, even if it is on by default on most HDTVs. Take back your quality HDTV viewing experience and turn off motion smoothing, because Tom Cruise asked you to! :-p

1961 Cork

#134
The BBC Archive Twitter account posted a fascinating video of writer Frank Connor talking about his native Cork in 1961. While his nostalgic meanderings about Cork are somewhat interesting, the real gem here is the footage of inner city Cork from 1961 and its inhabitants going about their daily lives.

Overcoming Failure

#134
Taylor Pearson has a great post on overcoming failure, which he terms the Bucky Method after Buckminster Fuller. I won't spoil the article for you, it's worth reading to see how Taylor does a fine job of combining theories and thoughts from multiple sources into a structured methodology of advice and a practical framework to repeatedly work on projects while building constructive failure into the mix.
