Back in 2007 I started freelancing under the name Made by Elephant. Was doing some domain cleanup and was curious what the logo would look like if I did it today. Fun little Wednesday warmup exercise. (Old on the left, new on the right)

Hmmm, so Affinity is all one app now and they made it free? Guessing that means they expect people to shell out for the AI tools enough that it'll pay for maintaining the rest, which.. seems far from assured? Kinda neat in the near term tho I suppose

In the '70s, Hayao Miyazaki tried to revive the cartoons of his youth. And he kept mentioning Fleischer's Mr. Bug Goes to Town.

He loved its animation and use of "space," and the physical way its characters navigate its world. We look into the story:

This video never names it, but it nails the “woozle effect”: when something seems true bc sources cite each other instead of an original. The term’s from Winnie the Pooh, where Pooh and Piglet follow their own tracks in circles looking for "woozles." Perfect metaphor for AI ouroboros poisoning info.

Congrats @kurtjmac.bsky.social! Wasn't there live but have tuned in often over the years. Over 500k$ raised in charity, including ongoing relief for Palestine. A feat of pure decency and unceasing wholesomeness. Neat!
