So I've got this barcode (which I will attach) and I don't know how to decode it, both zbar on my desktop and redlaser on my phone cannot read it. After a lot of googling, and reading on forums I can't find similar barcodes... Any suggestions?

Sorry I realised I needed a higher repuation to post an image, here is a dropbox link
After identifing the barcode, can anyone help with zbar decoding the barcode. I'd like do set this up so the software will decode similar barcodes...

It is a Code 39 barcode with a 3 bar widths char gap, which reads '1004876532'. Almost any standard bar code reader should be able to read this type. This online bar code decoder was able to read a cleaned up version of the image you originally posted.
*the yellow arrows represent the 3 bar width character gaps.

it seams to be Code_39 format, value: 1004876532

Does anyone know which API that Windows uses to draw the window title in Win 7(Aero theme) and Win 8?
I've tried to check with API Monitor tool, but don't see any API to draw the title.
Please advise.
Thanks.
It's been a long time since I did these things, but just googling it (three search phrase attempts) I ended up at DrawFrameControl.
Disclaimer: haven't tested.
Update: as noted in the comments DrawFrameControl won't do the job. And simple testing indicates that neither will DrawCaption. Apparently one has to use the theme functionlity, for which I found an example of drawing a window caption at (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/bb688195%28v=vs.85%29.aspx#appendixb). Essentially this code uses GetThemeSysFont to obtain the caption font and then DrawThemeTextEx to draw the caption.
New disclaimer: haven't tested the GetThemeSysFont plus DrawThemeTextEx combo, since this turned into quite a bit of work!

I have a set of images on a data set and I want to create an application(on android initially) so that the application would be able to take an image and match it with an image on my data set. I tried using image recognition algorithms but I had very poor recognition chances. Is there any way to unobtrusively embed data on the image itself such that when a printed version of the image is scanned by the application, it would be able to extract the embedded data? I need some direction in this regard because I seem to be punching in the dark since I haven't worked on anything like this before.
Thanks
You can try with OpenCV4Android, here is the introductory tutorial. Following SO will give you some more- Looking for OpenCV android tutorial

I am new to Textmate 2. I have seen few people using textmate with a reduced opacity of the background color. I am trying to find a way to achieve that, but could not get to anything closer.
I tried tweaking the bundle file for the default theme, but eventually ended up messing the look of the existing theme.
What am I missing here. Do I need any other bundle to achieve it? How do I get a transparency in the background?
Ah! yes I now get it!... I guess its different in Textmate2. All you need to do is to goto the bundle editor and change the value of background in settings.
For example if the value of background is #141414 then append the hex value of the desired transparency. For example you want the opacity to be 62.8% then you can change the value to be #141414A1.
0xA1 = 161
161/256 = 62.8%

I recently came across this image which seems like a normal GIF:
Even imgur stores it as a GIF when I uploaded it here.
But when I saw the link, it was a JPEG image, unlike a GIF than what I had expected!
Here's the link: https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/559307_325955130827518_630404691_n.jpg
This is actually a .gif - look at the headers of the HTTP response.
The MIME type is image/gif
So it doesn't matter what the URL says at the end - it's the MIME type that determines how your browser interprets it.
A lot of sites use this (I guess to throw off harvesters?) imgur.com often reports the wrong extension, for example. Try going to i.imgur.com/yourpic.txt - it should still show up as a proper gif.

How does Udacity.com (new learning website) create presentation where the text is in front the video is in back? Is there any specific software they use to prepare the presentations?
Udacity is using Wacom Cintiq tablet for producing those presentations.
Some extra information to add on Suhair's info about the Wacom Cintiq tablet being used.
Katy Reichelt is in charge of the video editing process and she explains how it has evolved and how it is done in her blog.
In that post you will find a link to professor's John Regehr recollection of how the class is recorded:
The recording process is this. You shut yourself into a dark, soundproofed room, put on a mic, and turn on a video camera and a program that records the tablet. Then, record written and spoken material. The editors can remove bad takes and pauses, which after years of lecturing to a live audience was hard for me to internalize. However, in the end it was very freeing since I could draw pictures, change colors, lookup details on Wikipedia, and attempt to write neatly (always a struggle for me) — all without boring anyone except the editors.The editors are 100% crucial to what Udacity is doing, and the difference between unedited material and the final output is striking. I can’t say enough about how good their work is.
My best guess is something like the following:
