    I want to like and use Zed, but in my mind there was some odd commerce, or 3rd party share decision that was made which had me avoid it for security reasons. Like... Zed was endors…

    I worked for a decade in what I would consider the highest level of our kids' privacy ever designed, at PBS KIDS. This was coming off a startup that attempted to do the same for gr…

    I love this absolute example of old systems interfering with new systems, rewriting old systems. My old man started his tech work on hot rods, then mechanical typewriters, calculat…

    I want to add in, as I used a ton of JS back when for a GUI that would build prepress ready PDFs and ship em direct to giant xerox printers for a company called Copy General - the …

    The problem to solve is that these clubs exist already with low membership. Join a local Masonic lodge, or other local social org if you want to meet men you will learn from. Boy S…

    We’ve been using Lottie for years now for certain PBS KIDS brand animations and it has multiple benefits over other formats. As with any runtime rendering in a 2D plane, it takes p…

    The explore/exploit tradeoff immediately seems like a natural connection to some synaptic pruning and forking research that has been popping up around neurodiverse brain patterns. …

    I could not find the remote to my TV this morning and attempted to use my iPhone instead. By the time I arrived at the correct UI my 3 yr old had already found a PS4 controller and…

    I remember my excitement when CSS3 became reality in modern browsers. I was following this project closely, which attempted to use recreate Robert Bringhurst’s The Elements of Typo…

    This was my immediate thought also - as I embrace my ADHD as success, not failure. After 10 years of web design/dev work I found myself spending more time in SQL than design and le…

    I am a core Brackets user and have been since day 1, as a designer/animator that frequently needs to write code. I suspect that I'll continue to use it without support as it is, or…

    There will be more horror stories like this as Teslas are not maintainable by their owners, making them throw away vehicles. Last I read, Tesla service manuals are only provided as…

    Compared to what? I'd argue that the Flash security argument is just a regurgitation of headlines people are reading. Every prolific web technology has a large number of CVE's.
