I’ve been working on this for a while, but let’s make it official: I started a little Tumblr-like microblog about software craft and quality!
You can sign up via RSS or a weekly newsletter digest. There’s already almost two months of content in there, if you just want to check it out.
Hope you like it!
I will occasionally link to a post from the blog that I feel really good about, if you don’t mind!
From this morning, a review of the documentary Koolhaas Houselife, ostensibly having nothing to do with UX design:

A post about the pretty inspiring and strange software that is Strudel, sort of a command line/text editor for music. I want my CSS authoring to feel this way.

An appreciation of one tool that does screenshotting in a really interesting way, plus the history of how ⌘⇧3 and ⌘⇧4 ended up where they are.

@doekman @mwichary That is also the case with German layouts and perhaps a few others.
And then you'll have the French AZERTY layout that even moved the M from the bottom row to the right of L!
Hungarian QWERTZ is kind of annoying, I guess we inherited the base layout from being part of the Habsburg Austria-Hungary and all, but we have a bunch of letters (ty, gy, sz, zs) that feel ever so slightly more fun to roll out on a QWERTY layout. It is also absolutely garbage for programming.
