My colleague and really awesome guy Casey Newton does an excellent job of capturing what it's like to actually get into Hall H and see cool things, but can we talk about Hall H as an entity unto itself for a minute here?
Asana's group collaboration and task management app for iOS has been totally revamped in an impressive way. It still lets users work together on shared projects, monitor deadlines, assign tasks, and fling related files back and forth, but the experience has changed a fair bit.
There's now a home screen that gives you a quick, at-a-glance view of what tasks are on your plate for the day. Searching across all of your projects and team members is more readily accessible, and tasks can be easily reordered and prioritized by drag and drop.
The update isn't available just yet, but keep an eye out for it. How many of you guys work in a team that uses collaboration tools like this? Which tools do you use to keep on top of things at work?

Morgan Freeman can make anything sound legit no matter scientifically implausible. In Lucy for example, which premiered last Friday, his character cites the "fact" that humans only use about 10 percent of our brain's resources. This is very, very wrong! But why does it keep getting tossed around? And how much of our brains are we actually using?
Like Pixar before it, Marvel Studios has developed a brand that transcends any particular character or franchise. That red rectangle with the white letters has become a stamp of quality, a relative guarantee that the comic-book movie you’re about to see will be worth your time and money. But also like Pixar, Marvel now has to decide how best to extend and expand that brand. Make more sequels to the films we already enjoy? Or try to branch out and invest in new stories, which brings fresh...
Se suele decir que ningún plan sobrevive al contacto con el enemigo, y que la guerra saca lo mejor y lo peor de las personas.
En este libro los autores recogen un montón de historias que separan en dos grandes bloques, las de la Primera Guerra Mundial y las de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, cada uno de ellos dividido a su vez en apartados más pequeños que agrupan las historias por grandes áreas temáticas, como pueden ser la ciencia aplicada a la guerra, personajes singulares, estrategias curiosas, o simplemente historias de buena y mala suerte.
Lo cierto es que algunas de las historias recogidas en el libro parecen increÃbles, y hay que tener fe en que los autores hayan hecho su trabajo para corroborar que son ciertas, pero en general es un libro que se deja leer muy bien, en especial porque al ser historias independientes se puede coger a ratos sin necesidad de concentrarse demasiado en él.
Una lectura ideal para ratos libres en el verano.
Sharron Laverne Parrish Jr. of Tampa has been charged with scamming a total of $309,768 from a number of Apple's retail stores located in 16 states, according to recently revealed federal court documents.
The 24 year old Parrish Jr is accused of taking that massive amount from Apple, in the form of merchandise, via a rather complicated scheme. He took a debit card that he knew had no funds in its associated account to these targeted Apple stores in order to "buy" devices. When the debit card was declined, he protested that there was some mistake, which then lead to many of the Apple store employees to call the bank. If there are in fact funds in the account, the bank can send an override code that can be entered into a debit card reader manually to allow the transaction to take place.
However, in this case, Parrish pretended to chat with the bank after an Apple employee handed him the phone, and Parrish in turn allegedly gave the worker a false code to override the bank's decline order on the debit card. Here's the key to his scam; it didn't matter what the actual code is He gave the Apple store employees any number to type in, as long as its within a specific number of digits, and it can still override the machine.
The scam was discovered by the U.S. Secret Service and Parrish was arrested on July 17. An Apple spokesperson declined to say if the company plans to make any changes at its retail stores so that this kind of scam cannot happen again.

Just because the Spruce Goose never took off doesn't mean that aquatic planes in general are wholly useless; these aquatic turbo-props are still used for a variety of humanitarian efforts throughout the world.
