Mundane I know, but to this day I get a thrill from the casual brilliance of hypertext. Reading a restaurant review: fancy a look at the full menu? Curious about that Victor Hugo story? Off you pop.

This is a masterpiece of the tweeting arts. Two of the founders of AirBnB went to RISD (a prestigious American design school), while the third was a Harvard grad. The conceit that 'rich kid' refers to one's account balance, rather than social class, makes me drop my monocle 🧐

I’m disappointed with the accessibility options in Days Gone following the great stuff in Sony’s other games like God of War and Spiderman.

Tiny UI text and subtitles, no controller remapping, button mashing QTEs, no aim toggle.

Interesting to see Swift's justification for adding isEven and isOdd to the language (because it would help people) in contrast to old school attitude attitudes (people who don't know everything or make mistakes deserve punishment).

Oh no. Technology aside, @[email protected] was a warm, generous, funny, relentlessly curious person — one of the greats. Goodbye Joe.

I’m definitely not clever enough to build something like this with jQuery, and probably not clever enough to do it with class components in React, but with hooks I can do it pretty easily. A true bicycle for the mind.

One of the key figures in today’s #blackhole story is scientist, #KatieBouman.

Take a look at this photo of her & her stack of hard drives containing the image data for the @[email protected], next to the photograph of Margaret Hamilton and her Apollo Guidance Computer source code.
