I was today years old when I learned that I’m about 1 year younger than Neal Patrick Harris (the guy who played “Doogie Howser” on the TV show named after the character).

Ada Lovelace
Take a little while and watch this YouTube video about Ada Lovelace. I had no idea she was the daughter of Lord Byron, and I didn’t know about her deep friendship with Charles Babbage. All I knew was that a computer language inherited her name.

Eureka Déjà Vu
I just had a “déjà vu moment”. I’ve been catching up on the TV series “Eureka“, and I just finished watching the last episode. Trevor Grant (played by James Callis) asked Henry Deacon (played by Joe Morton) if he wants to “change the world”.
My mind instantly went back to the line that Steve Jobs used on John Sculley (“Do you want to sell sugar water for the rest of your life or do you want to come with me and change the world?”).
