Dr Alvy Ray Smith is the co-founder of Pixar, a computer scientist and pioneer in the field of computer graphics and to celebrate 39 years to the day that Pixar was officially founded, I wanted to release my interview with Alvy from Series 3.After starting his career in academia, Alvy had an epiphany following a serious skiing accident. He decided to move to California to combine his two passions - art and computers - in a place where he felt something good was about to happen. Alvy was always a pioneer. From creating his first computer graphic in 1965, Alvy became an original member of the Computer Graphics Lab at the New York Institute of Technology, he witnessed the birth of the personal computer at Xerox PARC, and he was the first director of computer graphics at George Lucas's Lucasfilm. It was there that Alvy gathered some of the smartest people he knew to develop computer graphics software, including early renderer technology. He and colleague Ed Catmull then spun out to co-found the famous Pixar, soon followed by the hiring of Lucasfilm colleague John Lasseter, and Steve Jobs as an investor. It was at Pixar that Toy Story would be made - the very first, entirely computer-animated, feature film. In 2006, Pixar was sold to Disney for $7.4 billion.In this interview, Alvy recounts his career from the early days at Xerox PARC to how Pixar got started. We discuss the Pixar journey in detail, as well as his latest book – A Biography of the Pixel (you can buy here)- including how innovation is born from three strands: An idea, chaos and a tyrant. And how Steve jobs was both the saviour and the tyrant in the incredible Pixar story.A true pioneer, this is one of my favourite conversations.Enjoy!-----NB This episode was first released in Series 3.Let us know what you think of this episode and please rate, review and share - it means the world to me and helps others to find it too.Danielle Twitter / Instagram / Substack Newsletter / YouTubeAll my podcast episodes are edited with Descript - try it for FREE hereAlvy Ray Smith on Twitter @alvyray / website Buy Alvy Ray Smith's book A Biography of the Pixel here. -----This episode was hosted by me - Danielle Newnham, a recovering founder, author and writer who has been interviewing tech founders and innovators for ten years - and produced by Jolin Cheng.

The Rising Tide Against Deep Sea Mining The ocean's seabed is filled with minerals like copper, nickel, and cobalt—the very raw materials that tech companies use to make electronics and batteries. Some view it as fertile ground to mine and exploit, launching an underwater mining rush. Last month, world leaders gathered in Kingston, Jamaica to hash out the future of deep sea mining. For years, the International Seabed Authority—the organization in charge of authorizing and controlling mineral operations on the seafloor—has been trying and failing to put together a set of guidelines for deep sea mining. Ira talks with Dr. Diva Amon, marine biologist at the Benioff Ocean Science Laboratory at the University of California Santa Barbara and director of the non-profit SpeSeas, based in Trinidad and Tobago. They talk through the science of deep sea mining, the policies being debated, and what the world risks losing. Then, Ira talks with Solomon Pili Kahoʻohalahala, Chairperson of the non-profit Maui Nui Makai Network and Native Hawaiian Elder of the Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument Advisory Council. August Skies Set To Dazzle August is shaping up to be a great month for stargazing, with or without a telescope. Celestial wonders such as a Perseid meteor shower and a Super Blue Moon will take place soon. Saturn will also be lit up for the remainder of August, and should be visible to the naked eye on a clear night. Joining Ira to talk about what we can see this month in the night sky is astronomer, author, and podcaster Dean Regas. Regas also talks about recently leaving his long tenure at the Cincinnati Observatory, and what's next for his love for astronomy.

On episode 169, we welcome Dean Rickles to discuss existential, death anxiety and its utility in helping us lead more meaningful lives; narcissism and the bulletproof vest; how our egos preclude us from taking important risks; Michael Shermer's conception of Alvy's Error; the importance of cultivating self-esteem according to mice experiments; the downside of being a child prodigy; creating a meaningful life though community engagement; whether narcissism is on the rise and how it's perpetuated by social media; narcissism as a fear of vulnerability and obsession with being limitless; why Stoicism should take death anxiety more seriously; and the mystical unity of reality. Dean Rickles is professor of history and philosophy of modern physics at the University of Sydney, Australia, where he is also a director of the Sydney Centre for Time. His many books include Covered with Deep Mist: The Development of Quantum Gravity and A Brief History of String Theory. His newest book, available now, is called Life Is Short: An Appropriately Brief Guide to Making It More Meaningful. | Dean Rickles | ► Website | https://bit.ly/3Kylu3m ► Life Is Short Book | https://amzn.to/43AuZaY Where you can find us: | Seize The Moment Podcast | ► Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/SeizeTheMoment ► Twitter | https://twitter.com/seize_podcast ► Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/seizethemoment ► TikTok | https://www.tiktok.com/@seizethemomentpodcast ► Patreon | https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32208666
We have calendars to mark time, communal spaces to bring us together, bells to signal hours of contemplation, official archives to record legacies, the wisdom of sages read aloud, weekly, to map out the right way to live ― in kindness, justice, morality. These rhythms and structures of society were all once set by religion. Now, for many, religion no longer runs the show. So how then to celebrate milestones? Find rules to guide us? Figure out which texts can focus our attention but still offer space for inquiry, communion, and the chance to dwell for a dazzling instant in what can't be said? Where, really, are truth and beauty? The answer, says historian and poet Jennifer Michael Hecht in her new book, The Wonder Paradox: Embracing the Weirdness of Existence and the Poetry of Our Lives, is in poetry. Shermer and Hecht discuss: awe and wonder • science and religion • the new atheists • humanism and atheism • secular Judaism • replacing religion, with what? • the original meaning of liturgy and why it's still important • rituals for atheists • how to cope with loss, death, and grief • what to say at weddings and funerals • Alvy's Error (the universe is expanding but Brooklyn is not) • what we do in the hear-and-now matters, whether or not there is a hereafter (which there probably isn't) • love. Jennifer Michael Hecht, a historian and poet, is the award-winning and bestselling author of the histories Doubt, Stay, The Happiness Myth, and The End of the Soul. Her poetry books include Who Said, The Next Ancient World, and Funny. She earned her PhD in history from Columbia University and teaches in New York City. Her new book is The Wonder Paradox: Embracing the Weirdness of Existence and the Poetry of Our Lives.

In the beginning there was a bit. And then the pixel: a particular packaging of those bits. With the coming of the pixel, the organizing principle of most all modern media. Nearly every picture in the world is now composed of pixels: cell phone photos and Mars Rover transmissions, book illustrations and video games. Pixels and digital images are now all but synonymous. Pixar cofounder Alvy Ray Smith offered in his new book, A Biography of the Pixel, simple but profound ideas that unify the dazzling varieties of digital image making. Pixel's development begins with Fourier waves, proceeds through Turing machines, and ends with the first digital movies from Pixar, DreamWorks, and Blue Sky. Don't know what a Fourier wave is? Don't have a clue what a Turing machine does? Smith makes hard-to-understand concepts accessible to the layperson. Every field has now been touched by the small and mighty pixel – from the arts to technology; from business to entertainment. Smith opens our eyes to show how pictures composed of invisible stuff become visible. Alvy Ray Smith co-founded Pixar and Altamira Software. He was the first Director of Computer Graphics at Lucasfilm and the first Graphics Fellow at Microsoft. He has received two technical Academy Awards for his contribution to digital moviemaking technology. Charles C. Mann is a correspondent for The Atlantic, Science, and Wired, has also written for Fortune, The New York Times, Smithsonian, and Vanity Fair, among others. He is the author of several books, including the New York Times bestseller 1493. He has also written for the TV network HBO and the series Law & Order.

More recently, he authored the book, A Biography of the Pixel. In this episode… Have you seen the Toy Story series or The Incredibles? Pixar, the company behind these animated movie classics and many others, has been around for decades and is worth $7 billion today. What's more exciting is that a letter started it all as one of the co-founders, Alvy Ray Smith, said. How did Pixar start, and what's its connection to Disney? What are the inner workings of such a company, and what has Steve Jobs got to do with it? Alvy answers these questions and shares never-before-heard parts of the building of Pixar. He even reveals how he convinced a millionaire to fund the world's first 24-bit pixel. Want the full story? Listen to this episode of the Inspired Insider podcast with Dr. Jeremy Weisz, featuring Dr. Scot Gray of Top Minds as co-host, and Pixar co-founder, Alvy Ray Smith as a guest. They discuss the genesis of full animated movies in America, Pixar's contributions, Pixar becoming part of Disney, Steve Jobs's infamous role, and some business partnership lessons.
Computer graphics pioneer Alvy Ray Smith and befores & afters' Ian Failes discuss the invention of the alpha channel.
The pixel, the smallest element of a picture, has, with little fanfare, helped push forward the digital revolution to new heights over the past 2 decades. Today, nearly every picture in the world is composed of pixels—cell phone pictures, app interfaces, Mars Rover transmissions, book illustrations, video games—and these digital images drive our understanding of the world around us. But where did pixels come from, and why are they so important? Alvy Ray Smith, the co-founder of Pixar, has a some answers to these increasingly important questions. In his his timely book A Biography of the Pixel, Ray Smith notes that the pixel is the organizing principle of most modern media. Smith's story of the pixel's development—which touches upon technology, entertainment, business and history—begins with Fourier waves, proceeds through Turing machines and ends with the first digital movies from Pixar. For anyone who has watched a video on a cell phone, played a video game, or streamed a television show or movie at home, this important discussion with one of digital media's pioneers who made it all possible is not to be missed.

Alvy Ray Smith is an American computer scientist, a Co-founder of the Lucasfilm Computer Graphics Division, Pixar, and Altamira Software. Alvy was part of the 1980s and 1990s expansion of computer animation into feature films. He created his first computer graphic in 1965 at New Mexico State and by 1970, earned a PhD in computer science from Stanford University. Altamira Software was eventually purchased by Microsoft, where Alvy was the first Graphics Fellow. He was also the first Director of Computer Graphics at Lucasfilm. More recently, he is the Author of the book, A Biography of the Pixel. In this episode… Pixar is one of the largest animated film companies in the world, valued at over $7 billion. They've released 24 full-length animated feature films since Toy Story was released in 1995. Pixar is now a household name, with children and adults alike falling in love with their movies for the last half-century. But how did it get started? Alvy Ray Smith was there from the very beginning. Through a serendipitous turn of events, he met Ed Catmull and George Lucas and made the move for California to work at the Lucasfilms Computer Division as the Director of Computer Graphics. From there, he went on to work with the best talent in the world and turn the dream of fully animated feature films into reality. The result? Pixar Animation Studios. In this episode of Top Minds, Dr. Scot Gray and co-host Dr. Jeremy Weisz are joined by Pixar Co-founder, Alvy Ray Smith, to discuss the roots of one of the largest animated film companies in the world. Alvy talks about the milestones of Pixar's journey, how they became an independent company, his tumultuous relationship with the man who invested in the company's rise, and his business ventures after Pixar.

Listen to Maggie and Ian discuss 1977's Best Picture, Annie Hall. While they loved the editing and fresh style of the film, neither Ian nor Maggie could get past the characterization of Alvy.
Alvy Singer is not, he tells us, a depressive character. It’s just that as a child he always worried that the expanding universe would one day break apart; and as an adult that romantic relationships must always fall apart. With Annie Hall, he thought he had finally found something that would last, in part because she could -- like the audiences of Woody Allen -- endure and make sense of his fragmented neuroticism: by finding it, on occasion, funny, or endearing, or even informative. While Annie’s patient, quirky fatalism does not prevent her from outgrowing Alvy and leaving him behind, the nostalgic and wistful frame of Allen’s film does have something to say about what helps keep love alive, and people connected.

This Memorial Day, we salute all our service men and women who have paid the ultimate price in the line of duty, with the story of Marine demolition man, Alvy Ray Pittman. A Columbia, Mississippi native, Pittman volunteered to join the U.S. Marine Corp in November of 1942. After bootcamp, he went to demolition school for training in the use of high explosives and landmine removal. In this episode, Pittman explains the hazards of being on a demolition team and why their casualty rates were so high. During WWII, the campaign to take the Pacific Islands held by Japanese forces, resulted in thousands of casualties. Pittman recalls how so many of his friends died in combat. On February 19, 1945, U.S. Marine and Navy forces attacked the island of Iwo Jima. During five weeks of constant fighting, the Marines endured heavy artillery barrages from the entrenched and fortified positions of the Imperial Japanese Army. Pittman describes a phenomenon he calls “Combat Wisdom.”—a combination of battle experience and premonition that helped him and his team escape death on multiple occasions. Given the human cost, some have questioned the strategic value of taking certain Pacific Islands during WWII. Pittman discusses why the battle of Iwo Jima saved more lives than were lost.
Estamos en el cuarto programa de la tercera temporada de Los Crononautas. Haciendo un poquito de radio en su versión podcast para recordar que nosotros también estuvimos confinados… ¿o era confitados? Si estuviéramos ante la versión culinaria de Los Crononautas, no presentaría al gran Príncipe Paris de las Ondas, Ignacio Monzón. No. Presentaría a Nacho, Nacho con patatas. Muy malo, lo sé. Por eso, nuestro experto en Historia ha decidido no hablar hoy, coge vacaciones, así que tendremos que esperar a próximos capítulos para retomar a Floridablanca y el enfrentamiento que se vivía en Europa con el Reino Unido, Francia, España y Portugal sobre el tapete. Arrancamos pues con Filosofía en tiempo de crisis junto a Jorge Sánchez-Manjavacas. Lo introdujimos en anteriores capítulos. Vamos a abordar la Bioética. Razones éticas-sanitarias para salvar una vida y otras no. ¿Obramos bien ante esta discriminación?, ¿quién puede arrogarse el derecho a decidir?, ¿puede el ser humano llegar a regular esta situación? Y de la mano de la tecnología, no filosofamos pero casi. Los avances siempre nos hacen reflexionar. ¿Debemos limitar el progreso? ¿Todo avance tiene su aspecto negativo? Las nuevas tecnologías, ¿nos hacen más libres o nos coartan? Es lo que sucede con ese acuerdo entre Apple y Google que pretende ayudarnos a evitar que nos contagiemos con el coronavirus, permitiendo identificar mediante el móvil a quienes estén contagiados o hayan padecido la enfermedad. De todo ello nos hablará Álvaro Ibáñez, Alvy en Microsiervos.com. Y la mecha final, un postre sonoro, el de Raúl Shogún… Música y cómic, el combinado perfecto. ¡No os lo perdáis!
It had to be Annie Hall. It had to be Annie Hall. We wandered around and finally found Annie Hall. But what about Son of Sam? And that awful Phyllis Schlafly! One thing is for sure that the reference to WEB Dubois was a joke. Speaking of jokes, what joke did Alvy have for that black guy? Do actors use fake lips to gay kiss (no.). Plus, group victim blaming. Plus, don’t say that about Rob. By the way, Annie is no ditz and Harry Connick jr did not do that.
#AnnieHall #RetroAnatomyOfAMovie #AnatomyOfAMovie On this edition of Retro Anatomy of a Movie, Hosts Christian Bladt and Rachel Goodman cover Best Picture Winner Annie Hall. The premise is: The character Annie Hall is a aspiring nightclub singer and Alvy is a struggling writer and one day the two meet, hit it off together and eventually fall in love. The trial and tribulations of this modern romance highlights the comedy, emotion and sadness the two go through. This romantic comedy classic inspired comedians and writers for years following. @ChristianDMZ @RachelRadnorauthor Make sure to subscribe to Popcorn Talk! - http://youtube.com/popcorntalknetwork HELPFUL LINKS: Website - http://popcorntalk.com Follow us on Twitter - https://twitter.com/thepopcorntalk ABOUT POPCORN TALK: Popcorn Talk Network is the online broadcast network with programming dedicated exclusively to movie discussion, news, interviews and commentary.

Tal vez mirar a la cámara y contar una historia de amor sea como ir a un confesionario. El espectador sabe y el espectador entiende. Sin embargo, es lógico que el pobre Alvy no pueda sacarse de la cabeza a Annie. Quizá no supo vivir el momento o la complicidad que tuvo con ella. No quedan muchas mujeres como la mujer de tu vida. Eso está muy claro. Lo que pasa es que no te das cuenta hasta que la ausencia se apodera de tus días y lo que antes era divertido se ha convertido en algo sin gracia, sin espíritu, sin langosta. Sexo, jazz, psicoanálisis y muerte. Ése es el cóctel judío que le gusta a Alvy. Ir de mirón a una librería y comprar unos cuantos libros que no pegan ni con cola simplemente porque crees que a tu pareja le gustarían. Eso es el amor. O también levantarse a las tres de la mañana para matar a una araña del tamaño de un coche y que ella pueda dormir un poco más tranquila. Claro que ella es un poco nerviosa y Alvy un poco neurótico. Pero eso son sensaciones pasajeras que siguen su camino si hay amor alrededor. Un amor parlanchín y analista. Un amor que solo se da una vez en la vida. Sí, ése es el peligro. ¿Cómo se reconoce el amor de tu vida? Es imposible. Es como una apuesta en la ruleta. Si pones los sentimientos en rojo y resulta que sale negro, estás arruinado. Si, por el contrario, aciertas, eres millonario…pero ¿cómo saberlo? La respuesta está en la ausencia. Porque ella no está y sabes que te falta algo ¿verdad, Alvy? Falta lo más importante. Es aquello que te ponía la sonrisa en la boca y la ilusión en el corazón. ¡Qué pocas veces escuchamos a nuestro corazón! ES un mentiroso compulsivo, y cuando dice la verdad, no le creemos. Es como un niño que no quiere comer nunca más y, de repente, salta con que quiere ponerse hasta las cachas. Maldito corazón, ya podrías crecer y ser más responsable. Película clave en la filmografía de Woody Allen, donde comienza a mover intensamente piezas que luego serían claves a lo largo de su filmografía. Brecht en Nueva York, perdido en la gran ciudad mientras los sentimientos saltan y se empeñan en no aparecer, y cuando aparecen, en no llamar la atención; y cuando llaman la atención, en no hacerse costumbre; y cuando se hacen costumbre, en resultar indispensables. No hay quien les entienda. Con la fácil que sería llevar un cartel luminoso anunciando: “Soy el amor de tu vida”. Así, al menos, sabríamos cuándo dar la vuelta y decir que no y, claro, también cuándo decir que sí. Y es que el caso es que Annie, a lo mejor, no sintió lo mismo. Se fugó al oropel y se refugió entre las luces de neón y el fulgor de las fiestas y el brillo de las copas y la charla intrascendente, vacía y pedante de los intelectuales que pretenden que todo sea lo más importante y que todo sobre lo que opinan está bien pensado y más que pensado. Hay que adorar mucho Nueva York para aguantar las colas. Pero Alvy, creo, solo las puede aguantar con Annie. César Bardés Esta noche invitamos a Diane Keaton a cenar langostas en Radiopolis...

Vamos a por el sumario del programa de hoy que comenzará como siempre con nuestro joven pétreo, capaz de permanecer impasible ante el peor de los temporales, de manos frías y corazón caliente. El príncipe Paris de las Ondas, nuestro historiador Ignacio Monzón que atentos, hoy nos espera en la Prehistoria. ¿Qué es la prehistoria? ¿Qué otro término define mejor esa época de la que no tenemos constancia de escritura pero sí de homínidos? ¿En qué momento podemos situar la prehistoria? Muchas dudas que Nacho Monzón nos ayudará a resolver. Y del pasado muy pasado, al futuro muy futuro. A ese futuro que ya no existe. Que es inalcanzable, que es indescriptible porque para Marina Garcés el futuro forma ya parte del pasado. Debemos centrarnos en el presente porque el futuro se escapa a nuestro entendimiento. Esto puede ser entendido como una resignación ante lo que nos rodea, ante nuestro anhelos por mejorar o pensar y diseñar un mejor futuro. Hablaremos de Marina Garcés junto a nuestro filósofo Jorge Sánchez-Manjavacas. ¿Por qué nos llama idiotas Marina? Luego le preguntamos a Jorge. Muchas preguntas en el programa de hoy. Y Álvaro Ibáñez, de Microsiervos, no va a ser menos. Cuando hablamos de nuestros datos en Internet y de que a penas pueden tener interés para el común de los mortales (más allá de los cotillas o mentes perversas que sólo piensan en hacer daño)… por qué entonces, si a penas son valiosos,… ¿esos datos se roban? ¿Por qué invierten cada año más y más miles de euros las empresas para protegerlos de ataques de hackers? El caso Cambridge Analytica sigue dando que hablar. Ayer mismo nos enterábamos del comercio de datos de Facebook y diferentes empresas tecnológicas. ¿Debemos convivir con esta realidad? ¿Tienen valor esos datos? Porque tal vez, desdiciéndome, aunque haya interés por robar esos datos, tal vez esos datos y su tratamiento sea pobre e incorrecto. De todo ello hablaremos con Alvy. Y finalmente con Raúl Shogún… con Raúl Shogún… en cuanto reciba el guión del programa de hoy os aviso. De momento sólo puedo contaros que he recibido un sobre con tres rombos… para mí que nos espera algo picante en el cómic y no es chili precisamente. Luego que nos lo cuente Raúl Shogún que como sabéis lo podéis encontrar en a C/ Padilleros, 11 en Salamanca. Allí estuvimos la semana pasada y qué bien lo pasamos. Creo que dejamos buena constancia en el programa. Presentado por Martín Expósito.
Ignacio Monzón hoy no viene solo. Nos presentará al mismísmo Godoy, Manuel Godoy. Ensalzado por la Historia, hoy recorreremos sus luces y sus sombras. Porque en esta vida no todo es blanco o negro. Como la tecnología. Ni tecnófilos ni tecnófobos. Apuntemos a la objetividad y busquemos la ecuanimidad. Jorge Sánchez-Manjavacas nos propone abordar lo bueno y lo feo de la tecnología del siglo XXI. Y nos propondrá conceptos de otros maestros que hablan de los escenarios en los que nos movemos. El natural, el de la polis y el entorno a distancia, en el que nos encontramos inmersos cada vez más. Somos cada vez más autónomos, más digitales, más cibernéticos. La tecnología nos lo permite. Tanto es así que ya no es necesario una gran inversión para rodar, por ejemplo, un largometraje propio de Hollywood. Nos lo demostrará en el programa de hoy Álvaro Ibáñez. @Alvy de Microsiervos.com nos da las pista para que hagamos grabaciones digitales low-cost, ahora que está ya a la vuelta de la esquina Semana Santa y tendremos tiempo para disfrutar de escenarios en los que no nos movemos habitualmente. Veréis cómo con pocos recursos se puede conseguir un resultado excelente de grabación. Y como estáis a tiempo, para cuando os pongáis a hacer la maleta, atentos a las recomendaciones de Raúl Shogún. Esos cómics y aventuras gráficas que no os debéis perder estas próximas semanas. Si tenéis cualquier duda o queréis más detalles, a Raúl lo encontráis en Salamanca, en la calle Padilleros número 11. Decidle que vais de mi parte y pedidle que os haga una fotocopia… Lo que ocurrirá después, sólo lo podréis descubrir después de decírselo… Lo que ocurrirá en breves instantes, ya lo sabéis. Historia. Filosofía. Ciencia. Cómic. Presentado por Martín Expósito.
Tecnología , inteligencia artificial, era victoriana. Casi todo en esta vida admite claros y oscuros como veremos en el programa de hoy. Comenzando por la era victoriana. Se dice que esa época fue la cúspide de la Revolución Industrial en Reino Unido. Cumbre Reino Unido, cumbre! Que diría Juan Antonio Cebrián. Sin embargo, esa época cumbre no lo fue para todos, de hecho lo fue para muy poquitos como nos contará nuestro historiador de cabecera, Ignacio Monzón. Nuestro Príncipe Paris de las Ondas viajará al siglo XIX para detallarnos cómo se vivió esa época, pero desde la calle, desde los adoquines de un país que crecía a un ritmo tal que nos recordaría al de la China actual con una población empobrecida, que migraba del campo a la ciudad, donde las condiciones no eran todo lo salubres ni espléndidas que hoy tenemos en mente al pensar en esa … época victoriana. Además hablaremos de la reina, de Victoria, de su papel y el de su marido, que pasó desapercibido pero que la Historia lo ha situado en su lugar. Recordado por ser el artífice de las Expo mundiales… y de hacer negocio con ellas. Parece que va con el cargo… Además contaremos con otro consorte de lujo. Raúl Shogún, que este sí hace negocios lícitos en Salamanca gracias a su tienda de cómics Shogún Salamanca. Pozo de sabiduría, libros y figuritas que cada semana nos invita a recorrer en la Calle Padilleros, 11. De camino a la plaza mayor salmantina. No os lo perdáis. Allí encontraréis, además de a Raúl y a Sole, algunos de los protagonistas de hoy. Juegos para los más peques de la casa. Con la Semana Santa a la vuelta de la esquina, nos hará un ranking de juegos para pasar muchos ratos entretenidos con los más jóvenes de la casa. No todo son vídeojuegos… Señor! Señorita! Señora! Señorito! Ay señor, ya no sabe uno cómo quedar bien con todo el mundo, munda. Es absurdo, absurda, verdad? Pues eso, esa. Los robots son robots, ea. Neutro. Ni para ti ni para mí. Ahora la duda que nos embarga es si son buenos, si son malos, si la evolución intrínseca del ser humano hace que aumente su presencia entre nosotros… Le preguntaremos a Jorge Sánchez-Manjavacas, que parece que hoy venía compinchado con Álvaro Ibáñez para hablarnos de tecnología. @Alvy de Microsiervos.com nos propone hablar de inteligencia artificial a raíz de la mesa redonda del Memorial Isaac Asimov moderada por el mismísimo Neil deGrasse Tyson.

The tenth episode of our showcase for emerging and established creative talent, featuring comedy from Edwin Sammon, poetry from Alvy Carragher and a chat with Ash frontman Tim Wheeler. www.theweeklygm.com
Ray Pittman of Hattiesburg joined the Marines in 1942 as a demolition man. In this episode, he describes a typical demolition team and the dangerous jobs they performed. Pittman’s team suffered heavy casualties during some of the worst battles in the Pacific theater. He recalls how a spare pistol saved his life on the island of Iwo Jima. Pittman also remembers the day his friend Maxwell was killed while they were on a recon mission and how their actions prevented an ambush by the Japanese. This D-Day, as we pause to remember our soldiers who fought so valiantly on the beaches at Normandy, let us also consider those brave men who were fighting on the other side of the world with this--our 400th episode of Mississippi Moments. (the picture is of a Marshall Island enemy block house blown up by Ray's team)
Little known fact: when he was in grad school, Dr. Ian Malcolm was friends with Tony LaceyRC-2013-109: Annie Hall (1977) Your browser does not support this audioRecently, Turner Classic Movies aired Annie Hall, and I was reminded of just how extraordinary a picture it is—a romantic comedy that's exceedingly romantic and funny. This commentary was inevitable. As you watch Alvy's hangups doom his love life, you'll hear me marvel at the film's wildness, the way it breaks every rule.
