This article is worth a read, if anything for being honest about facts and history.

Depressing.

Awesome demo. Extremely fluid on iPhone X but would be interesting to see on other phones.

Oops

Awesome.

Ok, now I have to go buy me a slinky.
As an interesting observation: all the tricks use plastic slinkys, not the original metallic ones.

This changes the economics of ultrasounds... if it works.

Oddly addicting game.

This is a Pixar movie set in Mexico. When Mexico or Latin culture in general gets depicted in Hollywood, it's usually a sad caricature of the real thing. Two recent high-profile shows come to mind:

1. Breaking Bad, one of the best TV shows ever, does a terrible job of this. The main bad guy is supposed to be from Chile (???) and his Spanish was beyond terrible. Everything else was about the same.

2. Narcos, a TV show filmed in Colombia about a Colombian drug lord, chose a Brazilian to play Pablo Escobar. You can tell he tried, but his Spanish is off in an Uncanny Valley kind of way. There are other questionable casting choices.

In a refreshing contrast, Pixar seems to have done it's homework. The clips look and feel like Mexico. And whenever a character says something in Spanish, it sounds like a native Mexican Spanish speaker. Looks great and at the same time very respectful to the culture. How refreshing!

I am not holding my breath.

Best in the business.

Legitimately interesting article about charging speed for the new iPhones. Hadn’t seen a comparison like this before.

I would have promoted the guy!
