Sixth Sense is a wearable device consisting of a camera, projector, and mirror coupled in a pendant. The camera tracks hand gestures to interact with projected information from a connected smartphone. It allows users to access digital information about objects, maps, time, and more through natural hand gestures by projecting this information onto surrounding surfaces. Some example applications include making calls, getting navigation directions, checking the time, and taking photos through hand gestures.

Ruby 2.0 introduced several new features including keyword arguments, the splat operator, and the ability to convert classes like Struct and ENV to hashes using the #to_h method. It improved gem installation from Gemfiles without needing Gemfile.lock and fixed odd behavior in inspect. Developers can now undefine methods using remove_method. Other enhancements were default UTF-8 support, %i for arrays of symbols, and more features were promised.
Brett Cranson held a financial seminar covering various topics to help attendees reduce debt, budget planning, and reach financial goals. The seminar discussed the differences between good and bad debt, how to pay down credit card debt and create a budget. It also covered saving strategies like RRSPs, TFSAs, RESPs and when to consider life and critical illness insurance. The overall seminar provided guidance on developing both short and long-term financial plans.

TWIST: Using HumanKind tools in my personal lifeHoward Laubscher
During our Friday morning chats called TWIST, we get to bring 10 minutes on any topic. I used our internal tools and approaches and applied them to my personal life. Doing thing allowed me to pressure test our approach into practical life and experience them first hand instead of for our clients.
The document discusses the first few steps for backend developers to work with frontend development. It recommends thinking about an API-driven architecture, building at least one API, and pushing data from the backend to the frontend in JSON format. A typical API-driven architecture involves a frontend that receives HTML and data through JSON objects from APIs, and a backend that connects to a database and provides data to the frontend through RESTful APIs using standard methods like GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE.
