Today’s Atari company is not the same Atari from the 70s. They just own the brand which has passed hands over and over and over. But I must say it’s pretty cool that they are making a game cartridge for the 2600.

I love this list. It’s not “the best restaurants” but rather the “most legendary”. Places that are an institution. I’ve been to a bunch of them.

#5 Pizzeria Da Michele in Napoli (1996) was unforgettable.

#26 Salt Lick made the list. It is in my opinion a mediocre BBQ but a great tourist destination. I used to think it was good – either their quality declined or I learned better.

#84 El Rey del Cabrito from my hometown is super famous. I don’t like cabrito and their’s is not even the best cabrito. But the places (there’s several) are great destinations with excellent service and totally worth a visit.

The article is a nightmare though. The list of restaurants themselves are listed in un-searchable images. What a shame. Maybe I’ll do something about it.

Every Pixar film tackles a different technical problem.

1. "Toy Story" (1995): realistic lighting surfaces like plastic and metal toys
2. "Finding Nemo" (2003): underwater scenes
3. "The Incredibles" (2004): realistic human characters and fabric simulation.
4. "Cars" (2006): large-scale environments.
5. "Wall-E" (2008): realistic dust
6. "Brave" (2012): hair and fur simulation
   …

It’s super interesting that for this movie the challenge was to animate the fire characters realistically (as fire) but also recognizable (as characters). Using AI is a very neat approach.
