I just saw an Ailanthus Webworm moth this morning in Michigan and was struck by how different it looked from most insects I see here. They're native to the south but have apparentl…

I like iterators in JavaScript well enough. I understand the syntax of this just fine, it doesn't seem that ridiculous. It's definitely a little less simple than Go usually tends t…

I really really like Affinity. I'm not a pro but they offer all of the tools I would possibly need in a much better designed package compared to open source alternatives like gimp.…

If the "unburning" could be done using zero-emission renewable energy it seems like that would the best or only way to effectively remove excess CO2. I'm skeptical that there will …

I have been wanting a simple CMS which is effectively just a layer on top of GitHub for a while, I took a stab at it a couple years ago but bounced off so I'm very excited to see t…

Yes, downtown Detroit is a wasteland of parking lots. Some incredibly beautiful old buildings have been demolished and turned into vacant lots, it's a real shame. Downtown really n…

30% of the entire penguin population is a massive number though. That's tens, maybe hundreds of thousands of penguins affected. If we wait for a problem to have to affect more than…

When a forest burns down and regrows, it does so in a much more natural way than if humans just slap down some trees and nothing else and call it a day.

Well, JavaScript has no simple way to react to an assignment like count = count + 1 without introducing some magic between the code you write and the final code that runs in the br…

Cloudflare has an example project where you can write a worker in python and have it transpiled to JavaScript, but that feels a little funky. https://github.com/cloudflare/python-w…

I was just looking at the documentation site for VSCode extensions and it was absolutely C R A W L I N G. As much as I love to clown on VSCode being slow, it definitely feels like …

One of the biggest things I'm interested in is encode times. I have a static site where I automatically optimize and create a webp version of every image at build time and it's alw…
