We have some interesting stories for today. First, from The National Museum of Computing, we get the “Lorenz” story. It is a bit of historical computing that many people tend to forget about. At Overtone Recipes, we get a way to recreate Daft Punk’s Da Funk. I know it is a bit different than my normal shares, but it is still cool. The Next Web reports on Google considering Swift as an option for Android. Swift seems to be gaining some mindshare in major companies like Google and Facebook, so this will be an interesting development to watch.
As always, enjoy today’s items, and please participate in the discussions on these sites.
