Ludde's FPGA NES: Ludde's FPGA NES: "I was a bit bored during Christmas, so I decided to construct a whole Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in an FPGA. An FPGA is a programmable integrated circuit, generally programmed using a hardware description language.

The fact that a major part of the app runs inside a single web page makes it very interesting and appealing, and the accelerated growth of browser capabilities pushes us closer to the day, when all apps run entirely in the browser."

A bit more on writing bioinformatic research code | Byte Size Biology: "I am writing about the software you write to answer a biological question using the sequence data, structure data and/or metadata that you have. Those are the programs that your lab writes in Python, Perl, R or Matlab to classify, analyze, quantify and otherwise shake-and-bake the raw pink data you have until it is nicely and evenly cooked with a fine brown glaze of information coating."
