> Logic Pro X’s improved interface is easier to use than its predecessor's, and makes it much easier for novice users to discover the program’s many complex features. It’s not so much that Logic Pro X has a lot of features that Logic Pro 9 didn’t, but that it exposes those features more consistently and more logically.

*** Why Teach English? ***
<http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/books/2013/08/why-teach-english.html>
Adam Gopnik, New Yorker


> So why have English majors? Well, because many people like books. Most of those like to talk about them after they’ve read them, or while they’re in the middle. Some people like to talk about them so much that they want to spend their lives talking about them to other people who like to listen. Some of us do this all summer on the beach, and others all winter in a classroom. One might call this a natural or inevitable consequence of literacy. And it’s this living, irresistible, permanent interest in reading that supports English departments, and makes sense of English majors.

Jennifer Raff, Violent Metaphors


> I want to help people become more scientifically literate, so I wrote this guide for how a layperson can approach reading and understanding a scientific research paper. It’s appropriate for someone who has no background whatsoever in science or medicine, and based on the assumption that he or she is doing this for the purpose of getting a basic understanding of a paper and deciding whether or not it’s a reputable study.
