Wiggle wiggle! >> Finger cookies anyone? Muah-hahaha! Pass the fingers! >> Finally, even more candied apples to make! Double chocolate, candy dipped, minis, and more. As a bonus, the apples make these treats healthy, yay! Right? Let's make some more! >> Okay, enough with the Hallowe'en stuff already. Did you know the current state of computer graphics is due to an arbitrary decision made more than 50 years ago?Yep. In 1957, when scientist Russell Kirsch created the first digital image (a scanned image of his infant son) he and his colleagues settled on a grid of square picture elements (pixels) to create the image. Now he says that it was a "foolish" thing to do and is setting about fixing the issue. (Bonus info: He's now 81 and obviously still has mad skillz. Super bonus: He lives in Portland, OR.)
