The Apple and iOS community lost one of the truly good ones recently.

Alex Hay, the developer of Toolbox Pro for Shortcuts, passed away last Saturday after a battle with cancer. He was 36.

The news left me devastated. With his family's blessing, we've decided to dedicate @AutomationApril to his memory. We'll be making donations to two cancer charities in his name; we encourage those who were fans of his work to do the same.

Alex was pure talent. We'll miss you.

Today is the International Day of Forests. On this day we like to highlight "Sounds of the Forest" as an interesting project (we would love to see for gardens as well):

"We are collecting the #sounds of #woodlands and #forests from all around the world, creating a growing soundmap bringing together aural tones and textures from the world’s woodlands.

The sounds form an #OpenSource library, to be used by anyone to listen to and create from."

A couple folks asked why I share bios & links about women & underrepresented groups in science instead of “everyone.”

Well, we already hear a lot about famous men like Einstein & Darwin. But there are so many wonderful stories of other amazing individuals who have made significant contributions in #science #tech & beyond but haven’t been celebrated as widely.

And when we don’t see ourselves in the #history of STEM, we may not recognize we are capable of great achievements too. #HistoryRemix

VWORP! VWORP!
