College grads and career-changers, be warned. When you search around for a job at your favorite startup (perhaps even on Mashable’s job board?), you’ll start seeing the buzziest of job descriptions: “Growth Hacker.” The name sounds simple enough, but it’s easy to be confused about what a growth hacker is meant to do around the office, and how it differs from other, more traditional positions.

Here’s a breakdown of what companies mean by “growth hacker” and when and how you can become one yourself.

Growth Hacking is Marketing

Despite what you may think upon seeing the term, a growth hacker isn’t the same as a traditional technical hacker. So don’t expect that you need to be some kind of Internet wizard or high-level developer to be one. In fact, growth hacking is specifically geared toward marketing. Read more…

The “Les Misérables” star looked cute in a sleeveless short red-and-black dress with strappy black heels, while the hunky Irishman posed in a black sweater, white dress shirt, and gray trousers. Nearby, the “Parks & Recreation” funny man smiled in a dark suit and red plaid shirt.

In the animated film, a teenager finds herself transported to a deep forest setting where a battle between the forces of good and the forces of evil is taking place. She bands together with a rag-tag group characters in order to save their world — and ours.

Hitting theaters on May 24th, “Epic” also stars the vocal talents of Jason Sudeikis, Steven Tyler, Pittbull, Beyoncé, and Josh Hutcherson.

Ubuntu tablets may not be particularly new, but thanks to its liberal build, things can get a bit more interesting when another OS is added to the mix. Ekoore’s Python S3 tablet goes a little further, nestling Ubuntu, Android and Windows 8 behind its 11.6-inch screen. Specifications can be customized on the order page, but there’s an Intel Celeron processor, 8GB of RAM and a 128GB SSD for storage, while the 1,366 x 768 resolution was chosen to suit all three operating systems: Windows 8, Android 4.2 and Ubuntu 13.04. There’s connectivity through both WiFi and an optional 3G module — the Win 8 license itself is also a purchasable extra. The device is priced at $770 for the US, while you’ll be able to pick up a dockable keyboard add-on (with built-in battery) for around $179. For those of you who still can’t decide your favorite tablet OS, you can hedge your bets and place an order at the source.

Most approaches to capturing 3D models of real-world objects involve multiple cameras that are rarely cheap, and are sometimes tricky to calibrate. The University of Glasgow has developed a method that ditches those cameras altogether. Its system has four single-pixel sensors stitching together a 3D image based on the reflected intensity of light patterns cast by a projector. Reducing the pixel count lowers the cost per sensor to just a few dollars, and extends the sensitivity as far as terahertz wavelengths. Real-world products are still a long way off, but the university sees its invention as useful for cancer detection and other noble pursuits. Us? We’d probably just waste it on creating uncanny facsimiles of ourselves.

As with the versions for all the other platforms, Angry Birds Rio for Symbian has a story that’s a bit different to what fans of the franchise have seen so far. The original Angry Birds are kidnapped and taken to Rio de Janeiro, where they manage to escape their captors and subsequently set out to save their friends, Blu and Jewel — two macaws that incidentally are also the stars of the movie Rio. The gameplay is mostly unchanged though, and you get two episodes right now, with more episodic updates promised, for free, in May, July, October, and November.

Angry Birds Rio is only available for devices running the ‘new Symbian’, also known as Symbian^3. At the moment, these are the Nokia N8, E7, C7, and C6-01.

Though Mozilla has long been a proponent of WebRTC for plugin-free video and voice chat, it hasn’t been ready to enable the full protocol in Firefox as a matter of course. It’s more confident as of this week: the newly available Firefox 22 beta turns on complete WebRTC use by default, allowing for both live web conversations and peer-to-peer file swaps. There’s more to the release as well, depending on the platform. Windows users receive support for HiDPI displays, like that of the Kirabook; every desktop user also gets gaming-friendly OdinMonkey JavaScript tuning, a web notification API and a font inspector. Android users won’t have WebRTC and other upgrades for now, but everyone can experiment with the latest Firefox beta at the source links.
