I found this link to DeepZoomPix 'technology demonstration' that I thought was pretty cool:

From:

Rich Griffin sent me this link this morning... he's created a 3D Flip Action that can be applied to any UI Element... for now only on the Y axis, but hey... do you expect EVERYTHING:)

Mike Taulty digs into GPU acceleration and reports back on what he's learning... all good info!

Fons Sonnemans has a demo (with code) of a 3D rotation of the time. I can't think of a practical use, but it's pretty sweet! and uses some fun new concepts, so check out the code.

Jordan Knight has a cool demo up of what he's talking about here. Gotta admit I hadn't thought of animation on DataContext changes. Now I wonder can I use that on my music app I'm dorking around with:)

Stay in the 'Light!

  • Get the Size of a Directory in Linux the Easy Way

    du -sh for the quick answer, ncdu for the cleanup, df for the disk itself: every command for checking directory size in Linux, plus why du and df never agree.

  • Vim Search and Replace: The Ultimate Guide

    One :%s command replaces every match in a file before a find dialog would even open. The Vim substitute patterns worth the muscle memory: flags, ranges, capture groups, and multi-file edits.
