How To Cure Cancer⇢
Patrick Rhone:
As a species, we have proven that there is nothing we can’t do if we set out to do so. We have cured the incurable countless times before. I fervently believe that, if we can send robots to Mars and fix elections with money, we can cure cancer. All it takes is the same thing it always has for every one of those challenges…
Care.

Memphis Ranked Second Most Charitable City⇢
Awesome. With companies like FedEx and AutoZone that back many public and private projects (like the one I’m employed on), this isn’t surprising. Couple with the fact that many great organizations like St. Jude call Memphis home, I’m proud of the Bluff City for making this list.

Welcome Back
Late last week, I announced that I had moved 512 Pixels to Squarespace’s platform. The move went smoothly; their import tool sucked in all my content and placed it with no trouble whatsoever. After the move, however, I started getting email about broken links on the site.
After several emails back and forth with Squarespace’s support team and some digging on my own, it was discovered that the issue was a result of my changing my permalink structure in WordPress several weeks ago. The resulting change made old links unreachable from inside or outside the Squarespace version of the site.

NASA can update its hardware faster than most Android OEMs.
On That Dock Placement Thing
Earlier today, I posted a rather tongue-in-cheek piece about where I prefer the Dock to be on my Mac.
Then the Internet exploded. All day, I’ve gotten a flood of tweets and emails explaining why I’m an idiot for putting my Dock where I have it. Many people have asked that I explain why my Dock on the right, pinned to the bottom, so I thought I would explain.
Before I do, however, it’s important to remember that Dock placement is all about personal preference. There’s no real right or wrong way to do it, no matter how strong your personal convictions may be.
