Gamasutra: Tynan Sylvester's Blog - The Simulation Dream
Some interesting advice on balancing simulation realism with playability in games. (Honours students will probably want to read it and either cite it or argue against it, as appropriate.)

I largely agree with the "Turing-complete user" article, which argues that thinking in terms of the user (rather than a "user experience", or similar) is sensible in the context of general-purpose tools.

1976 guidelines on data processing ethics. Interesting to revisit.
OpenSCAD - The Programmers Solid 3D CAD Modeller
Programmatically generate and manipulate 3D models. This is useful for 3D fabrication -- generating gears, and things like that.
John Graham-Cumming: Babbage's Debugger
How Charles Babbage came very close to inventing UML.

Compiler from a C#-like language to C with GObject. Perhaps worth looking at for Potamus in the future?

Includes an online book that's an *incredibly* detailed commentary on the C99 spec (1600-odd pages). Fascinating stuff.
History of Haskell - HaskellWiki
Detailed paper on the development of Haskell -- very interesting reading. The other papers in the same conference will probably be worth checking out too.
