Of Maps and Men: is Apple relying on us to fix the iPhone 5? September 27th, 2012 by Ville Miettinen. As a long-time Apple Fanboy, I’ve done my fair share of preaching from the book of Jobs.

Page 43 of 43. My Wife, the Computer. December 5th, 2009 by Ville Miettinen.

Naturally, tricky math problems must predate the invention of sophisticated machines. So what did you do when faced with a task that required a myriad of component calculations and painstaking attention to detail, not to mention showing your work? Game over. The d...

Will 3D printing and crowdsourcing bring the industrial revolution home? November 9th, 2012 by Ville Miettinen. In Europe and the US right now, almost no issue commands more air time than persistently high unemployment rates (other than what Kate Middleton is wearing, of course). But beyond the depressing jobless figures, new trends may be changing labor markets, and the economy as a whole. The factory moves out, and then comes home again. We are going to see a rebalancing a considered move away from the...
