This 5 part series covers how to create a simple gas solver in dynamics from scratch in Houdini 9. You will start by creating a visualization tool to understand how volumetric gas and smoke works, then each lesson will build on that until you are creating gas solvers (a type of fluid) in Houdini 9.
Erno Rubik had no idea his three-dimensional, mechanical puzzle cube would be so popular when he designed it, but he did know it would perplex problem-solvers all over the world. In order to solve the Rubik's Cube, you need to know a little bit about math, specifically algorithms. In this video tutorial, learn how to solve the 4x4 Rubik's Cube Revenge the easy way. If you can solve the Classic Rubiks Cube, this 4x4 Rubik's Cube Revenge should make things a little more difficult.
Does your child want to learn how to solve the Rubik's Cube? What better way is there than learning how to solve the Rubiks Cube for kids than by kids? This video four-part video tutorial will show your children what they need to know.
Robotic Rubik's Cube solvers are nothing new. We've seen ones that are run on Android, made of LEGO Mindstorms, and faster than the world record holder. The most recent Rubik's Cube robot making the news was made by high school student James Watson as a school project, but it's ended up getting a lot more attention than that.
Well, only if you also happen to have an ARM powered LEGO Speedcuber device. Promotional video by maker David Gilday for ARM Ltd. With the help of the Android, the machine cracks the Rubik's Cube in 25 seconds (compare to LEGO Mindstorms solvers' 4 seconds.... or the human record of 7 seconds).

MultiCuber achieves another world's first: the timed relay solve of 2x2x2, 3x3x3, 4x4x4 and 5x5x5 Rubik's cubes.
First off, don't be frustrated. YOU CAN DO IT! Contrary to the message in the image above, it's NOT over. It's just beginning. And when it comes to solving the New York Times crossword puzzle, the old cliche does apply: practice makes perfect.
Solving puzzles can be hard, especially when it comes to Rubik's Cube. Erno Rubik's puzzles are extremely difficult, three-dimensional mechanical cubes, unless you're determined and can handle a few mathematical algorithms, then they're easy, or at least not impossible.
This chess tutorial from Grandmaster Alexandra Kosteniuk is a perfect example of Retrograde Analysis.
There are many hacks for increasing productivity, but so many depend on tricking your own mind or behavior. When it comes to motivation in the workplace, though, sometimes the space within which you work dictates how you behave and the work you produce. So if you want to increase your ability to get more done in a single workday while doing a better job, consider changing your surroundings in the following ways.
I'll admit it: I've spent many eight-hour workdays stuck at my desk, staring at my computer as my breaks slip past unnoticed. I frequently tell myself I'll take one in a few more minutes—but somehow, the entire day will pass and I won't have taken a single break.
The app getting the most significant update on iOS 17.5 is, by far, Apple News. While there are a few changes in Books and Settings, as well as minor changes in apps like Podcasts, Apple News has at least 11 new features and changes you should know, some of which are worth getting excited about.
Apple released iOS 17.4 on March 5 with over 30 new features, but now it's iOS 17.5's turn for the spotlight. The update, currently in beta, gives us a few interesting updates and changes for iPhone, including a new word game, and there's even a sneak peek at what could be coming in the stable build.
SCRABBLE. I miss it.
