Hypercard / Flash / Dreams... all thriving creative scenes within a closed ecosystem. All kneecapped by business decisions.

Review of Lily Allen's new album: it's like a tv series of a messy failing open marriage. It's cool to turn an album into a coherent story. People that do creative stuff should keep coming back to it.

Considering making a boot-to #Picotron system, it is so cozy.
This one-button gravity flow game introduced me to Tiki Pona, a cozy constructed language.

This map shows Helsinki's shadiest / sunniest places. New tool? #GRASSGIS solar modelling.

After experimenting with Urban Müller’s minimal programming language, “Brainfuck”, we created our own version, “bff” – a soup of thousands of randomly interacting 64-byte tapes initially filled with random noise.

Server Charms are tiny, portable microcontroller setups made with recycled vape batteries. They create their own Wi-Fi network, inviting curious people to connect with their devices where a captive portal opens, leading to small webpages.

💥 did a small drawing explaining the JS execution model including the event loop. I hope it’s helpful to folks. Debugging is always easier when the underlying implementations are understood.

I got my first PHP job by showing code that I'd written to make a Livejournal tag cloud. The template language wasn't PHP but I could explain it. So thanks Brad.
