10 tips for better slide decks Aaron created this slide deck for a recent presentation on how TED’s tech team avoids problems by preparing well for all the possible pitfalls. He picked this stunning image—of a container ship about to tip—to begin it. View the whole slidedeck from this presentation. Aaron Weyenberg is the master of slide decks. We asked Aaron to bottle his Keynote mojo so that others could benefit from it. The big picture… Think about your slides last. And now some tactical tips… Go easy on the effects and transitions. Lastly, I’d love to leave you with a couple book recommendations. Happy slide-making.

7 Things Healthy People Do Before Bed By Jessica Migala To sleep well, pick up these nighttime habits. They Snack -- Smarter Photography by ZhangXun via Getty Images If you’re going to have a bedtime snack, make it a kiwi. Eating two of these fruits one hour before bed for a month helped adults fall asleep 35 percent faster and sleep 13 percent longer, found a 2011 study from Taiwanese researchers. It might be the high concentration of antioxidant vitamins C and E, which help regulate neurotransmitters in the brain (linked to healthy sleep cycles), or the fruit’s rich amount of another sleep-promoting neurotransmitter, serotonin.

Reverse Engineering a NAND Flash Device Management Algorithm | Joshua Wise's domain Around June of 2012, I had gotten myself into a very bad habit. Instead of carrying my SD card in my camera, I left it sticking out of the side of my laptop, presumably intending to do something with the photos on it eventually. On my flight home from Boston, the predictable thing happened: as I got up out of my seat, the machine fell out of my lap, and as the machine hit the ground, the SD card hit first, and was destroyed. I was otherwise ready to write off the data stored on that device, but something inside me just wasn't happy with that outcome. The following is a description of how I went about reverse-engineering the on-flash format, and of the conclusions that I came to. If you're just looking for the resources that go with this project, here are the pictures of the hardware, and here is the source code. You can discuss this article on Hacker News. Introduction I begin with a brief history of the field. This was okay, though, and we learned to work around these issues. Unwhitening

El grafeno: un material revolucionario y biodegradable Email 15.4K 64+ 127Email El grafeno, descubierto en el año 2004, se trata de una sustancia derivada del carbono, capaz de revolucionar la industria global por su resistencia, flexibilidad y capacidad de conducir electricidad. Este ha sido objeto de múltiples investigaciones, y como indican los expertos, este supermaterial tiene aplicaciones prácticamente ilimitadas. Dos profesores de la Universidad de California (UCLA), Ric Kaner y Maher El-Kady, trabajaban con este propósito cuando encontraron accidentalmente una nueva aplicación del grafeno que podría revolucionar las futuras baterías. Imagen: Focus Forward/ Captura de video Debido a sus increíbles particularidades, muchos científicos en el mundo buscan optimizar los procesos de obtención de esta sustancia. Con la batería de grafeno sería posible cargar un iPhone en tan sólo treinta segundos o un coche eléctrico en pocos minutos. Fuente:
12 Best Bootable USB Creation Tools / Software As flash memory devices are getting cheaper and are easier to handle, the circular old optical disks are becoming rare. Using flash memory devices like USB pen drive or portable hard disk as bootable media for your computer have dual advantage. The USB drive is more portable, easy to handle and you can easily erase them and then use it for other purpose. Also, you can easily use the same memory stick to test multiple operating systems and preparing them a bootable disk takes very less time as compared to the traditional compact disks. Having a Live USB key is better than just using a Live CD because you can even save your data and install software on USB key itself. Use the options of operating systems are increasing, you can't control yourself to test various versions and platforms such as Windows 7, Windows 8, Android Live OS, various flavors of Linux like Ubuntu, Mint, Mandriva and many more. 1. 2.

ACC97: How to Run Macros in Other Office Programs You can use Automation to run a Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications Sub procedure that exists in a document of another Microsoft Office program. This article shows you how to run Sub procedures from four of the Microsoft Office programs that support Visual Basic (Microsoft Access, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint, and Microsoft Word). Although some of these programs previously had their own macro languages (Excel 4.0 Macro Language, Access Basic, WordBasic), this article only discusses running Visual Basic Sub procedures. NOTE: A Sub procedure that does not accept any arguments is also known as a macro in Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint, and Microsoft Word.

ATM Machine Hacked In Malaysia With New Methods 2644Share2Share0Share0 23 A cybercrime expert said all you need is a RM100 chip, some technical knowledge and free malware obtained over the Internet to hack Automated Teller Machines (ATMs).Speaking exclusively to FMT in regard to the recent hacking of 17 ATMs, he said, “What you need is a mastermind, a RM100 computer chip and possibly a bank ‘insider’ to execute the attacks.” Explaining the intricacies of the hacking, he said, “He (the hacker) will know where the locks and connections are, the model of the machine, the level of security and the version of the operating system.”He added that the mastermind would then employ someone else to do the work.He pointed out, “The guys caught on the CCTV are not the actual criminals.
Reverse Engineering Many of the members here at Instructables ask about datasheets or pin outs of a device or display in answers, unfortunately you cant always get a datasheet and schematics, in these cases you only have one choice reverse engineering. Reverse engineering is a skill that is not taught in college or university electronics courses and yet it is a valuable tool in an engineer’s tool belt. Many people working on electronic equipment search to no end for schematics for a device when if they knew how it in all probability it would take less time to make their own schematics and parts lists. Take the flash circuit in this Polaroid Camera, if you wanted to model a capacitor charger after the flash circuit in this camera, unless you worked for Polaroid your chances of getting a schematic are next to impossible. I am going to show you some of the things you need to know to reverse engineer.
5 pasos para hacer el curriculum perfecto Crear un curriculum puede parecer una tarea sencilla, pues a primera vista parecería que sólo tienes que vaciar tus estudios, experiencia y logros en una página, incluyendo una foto profesional. Pero así estarías sólo transmitiendo información, y no una verdadera imagen de tu personalidad profesional que va mas allá de los simples datos de tu historial. Tu curriculum es una tarjeta de presentación que además sirve de primera impresión para las personas que decidirán si entrevistarte o no entre muchos candidatos igual o más capaces que tú. Para asegurarte de que tu resumen está estructurado de manera perfecta y proyecta tu mensaje e imagen correctamente, asegúrate de los siguientes puntos… #1. - Resiste a la tentación de corregir errores ortográficos y de estilo en la primera revisión; primero debes ver tu primera versión de tu curriculum como si fueses alguien que no te conoce. Tip: revisa tu curriculum impreso, y no en una pantalla. #2. #3. #4. #5.
