"Learning a new language opens a wealth of opportunities. But there's one language family that provides benefits like no other: the languages of computer programming. Now widely taught in schools -- even in elementary schools -- programming is an eminently learnable skill that gives you unrivaled problem-solving power you can apply in all areas of life. Programming is also a fun, creative activity that imparts deep insights into how we control the...

In the high-tech gold rush of modern Silicon Valley, the people most qualified to succeed are the least capable of handling success. A comedy partially inspired by Mike Judge's own experiences as a Silicon Valley engineer in the late 1980s.

The sixth and final season of Mike Judge and Alex Berg's hilarious, Emmy-nominated HBO comedy finds Pied Piper more successful than ever. After years of false starts, the company has become a legitimate presence in Silicon Valley, rising above the competition with its pledge not to mine user data. But the Pied Piper guys soon come to learn that staying true to their values comes at a price in this cutthroat business.

"Quantum mechanics gives us a picture of the world that is so radically counterintuitive that it has changed our perspective on reality itself, raising profound questions about concepts such as cause and effect, measurement, and information. Despite its seemingly mysterious nature, quantum mechanics has a broad range of applications in fields such as chemistry, computer science, and cryptography. Quantum Mechanics gives you the logical tools to grasp...

Join Sid on his biggest adventure yet; learning how to fly like a bird! While at home, Sid creates cardboard wings hoping that once he wears them he can soar in the sky like birds do! Unfortunately, his flight plans don't work out. This calls for an investigation! Once at school, teacher Susie announces that the class is going on a special field trip to learn all about flight at the Science Center!

Sid in motion: Sid is trying out his new dance on his hardwood floors when he discovers that friction prevents him from sliding. When he plays ball, he quickly learns that if a ball doesn't have enough elasticity, it won't bounce. This calls for some investigating; after pretending to be 'Super Sid' by kicking the ball with all his might, Sid and his friends take a trip to the Science Center to investigate how using lots of force makes things move...

Linear algebra may be the most accessible of all routes into higher mathematics. It requires little more than a foundation in algebra and geometry, yet it supplies powerful tools for solving problems in subjects as diverse as computer science and chemistry, business and biology, engineering and education, and physics and psychology, to name just a few. It is also the gateway to almost any advanced math course, such as calculus, abstract algebra, and...

At the Dawn of Man, a group of hominids encounters a mysterious black monolith that is alien to their surroundings. A hominid discovers the first weapon, using a bone to kill prey. The bone is tossed in the air and it's a 21st century spacecraft hovering over the Earth, skipping ahead millions of years in technological development only to imply that man hasn't advanced very far at all psychologically. U.S. scientist Dr. Heywood Floyd travels to the...
