CPAC Anthem - fixed!!
As the creator says:
"This poor girl has been having a bad time lately so I decided to fix it. Shame I can't change her politics, but it's a start."
[EDIT: Despite the name of the creator, there are no cats involved - it's "just" a sound engineer type of chap who put this inglorious rendition into a single key]

New videos on EXP TV
There are some new videos up on the EXP TV website (1 hour each):

I previously posted direct links to all of the EXP TV videos on here -- I've now created a web page containing them, which I'll attempt to keep updated.
Edit: I've added a RSS feed to the page.
Edit2: another Underground USA episode added.

For everyone else it's a good insight into some of the mathematical methods used in Comp Sci.

This method is fun!
The MD software GROMACS has a similar method but uses a look-up tables to provide the initial guess. This allows computation of 1/sqrt(r) to 32 bit accuracy with a single Newton iteration.

I’ve stopped even attempting any puzzle that takes them more than 30 mins to solve.
Mark is a pain for solving through “feed-forward” though, which is tantamount to bifurcation in my book. One of my favourite solves though was one where he’d gone down that route and I’d bloody-mindedly refused to, spending another eight hours or so finding a logical solution.
