Dan Finkel talks about his new TED-Ed riddle called “The Superconductor Lab”. How can you not love TED-Ed puzzles?
My new @TED_ED riddle seems really hard, but the solution is surprisingly simple. Make sure you pause it and solve it on your own!https://t.co/fxNcaKVilj

And finally, if you liked music from the 80’s then read Toto’s lyrics for “Africa” as written in the style of Ernest Hemingway. I loved this. Thank you Simon Kuestenmacher.
Toto’s “Africa” will never sound the same after reading the song lyrics in the style of Ernest Hemingway.
