The First 45 Years Of Star Trek I feel almost childishly uneducated when it comes to Star Trek, and the culture that surrounds this quite amazing series of movies and TV shows. There is no doubt Star Trek has had a huge impact on society, and I think the cast members should feel proud that they have been a part of a world-changing concept that will only grow stronger with time. There are gadgets, technologies and styles all derived from Star Trek, and I am sure no one could disagree with me when I say that Star Trek has had as much of an impact on the world as Star Wars, if not more. It’s with fascination that I begin to read and look through this information packed Star Trek infographic which replays 45 years of pure sci-fi history.

Traffic is brought to you by: Ruby on Rails Tutorial: Learn Rails by Example book and screencasts by Michael Hartl Michael Hartl Contents Foreword My former company (CD Baby) was one of the first to loudly switch to Ruby on Rails, and then even more loudly switch back to PHP (Google me to read about the drama). This book by Michael Hartl came so highly recommended that I had to try it, and the Ruby on Rails Tutorial is what I used to switch back to Rails again. Though I’ve worked my way through many Rails books, this is the one that finally made me “get” it. The linear narrative is such a great format. Enjoy! Derek Sivers (sivers.org) Founder, CD Baby Acknowledgments The Ruby on Rails Tutorial owes a lot to my previous Rails book, RailsSpace, and hence to my coauthor Aurelius Prochazka. I’d like to acknowledge a long list of Rubyists who have taught and inspired me over the years: David Heinemeier Hansson, Yehuda Katz, Carl Lerche, Jeremy Kemper, Xavier Noria, Ryan Bates, Geoffrey Grosenbach, Peter Cooper, Matt Aimonetti, Gregg Pollack, Wayne E.

Random Acts - Non-profit dedicated to acts of kindness worldwide Ruby Kickstart Tumblr Infographic Creation Made Easy with Visual.ly Create Today marks an important milestone for Visual.ly: the release of our tools for automatic infographic creation. Our team has made hundreds of infographics, so we know how hard it can be to find the data, do the necessary research, and make sure you are following the principles of good data visualization, while still coming up with a design that people will want to hang on their wall and spread through the interwebs. That’s why we’ve built data feeds into a number of infographic designs, created for you by our team of expert designers. Making an infographic, based on your own data, couldn’t be easier. Simply connect and click to produce a professional-looking infographic. If you don’t like the first design you try, click though the themes until you find one that you do like. We are social creatures, so we thought it only natural to start with Twitter and Facebook. Another reason was our launch at the SXSW Festival, a place where many new stories are being told.

Fireflies in a Jar This is a simple project that uses NE-2 neon bulbs in a group of 'relaxation oscillators.' In essence, an RC circuit charges a capacitor at a rate determined by a resistor and discharges the cap though a neon bulb to start the process over. The effect is a blinking lamp. I made this project using junk parts and so I don't have part numbers or retail sources to offer. You will need: 10 1uf capacitors 150v 10 1 meg ohm resistors 1/4 watt 10 NE-2 neon lamps 2 Diodes (300v) Solder Wire Shrink Tubing (1/8 in) Power cord and male wall plug Tools: Wire cutters Soldering Iron Hot Glue Gun (Epoxy OK too) Rotary Tool (optional) Thinking Cap* * You will be dealing with AC line voltages, so think before you touch anything.
Setup a DIY Network ‘DropBox’ (aka PirateBox) PirateBox allows you to quickly setup a mobile wireless file sharing network. Basically, it’s a P2P file-sharing device that can turn any space into a temporary, but secure wireless file sharing network. Multiple users within range of the device can connect to the network without any log-in and immediately start downloading or uploading files via their computers or mobile devices. As it is not connected to the internet, the system is secure from outside attacks. The PirateBox is made up of a wireless router and light-weight Linux server connected to a USB hard drive.
