A reprint of a G<em>ame Developer<\/em> article, I&#8217;m glad to see it online &#8211; it&#8217;s pretty amusing in places. The hack at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gamasutra.com\/view\/feature\/4111\/dirty_coding_tricks.php?page=2\">the top of page 2<\/a> is my favorite.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tomsguide.com\/us\/iphone-3gs-games-carmack-doom,news-4157.html\">Carmack on the iPhone 3GS<\/a>. Now the iPhone begins to face the same problem PC developers have to deal with: different levels of GPU support. At least there will be only one line of Apple phones, vs. multiple IHVs with a wide range of offerings at different price points, etc.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mendeley.com\/how-it-works\/\">Mendeley Bibliographic Database<\/a>. Manny Ko mentioned this one to me, and it looks interesting: a number of tools to pull in PDFs, get their references, let you annotate them, etc.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/oreilly.com\/oreilly\/author\/index.html\">O&#8217;Reilly&#8217;s author guide<\/a>. A surprisingly open and honest guide to how you as an author deal with publishers, specifically O&#8217;Reilly. Many publishers consider their contracts and royalty terms to be trade secrets, so it&#8217;s refreshing to see this information given in a straightforward manner.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/lab.andre-michelle.com\/tonematrix\">aM Laboratory ToneMatrix<\/a>. Pretty fun, and it reminds me of an experimental device seen at SIGGRAPH a few years ago. To see the most elaborate (and beautiful) web app ever, click on the AudioTool link, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hobnox.com\/index.1056.en.html\">Start AudioTool<\/a>, then pick DrumNBass. Scroll around. Click the menu in the lower left corner. Amazing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RapidMind is now a part of Intel.
