I played twinkle twinkle little star

I just did it and it didn't jump out for me at all. Odd

I just shared this in the work Slack and everyone resoundingly agreed with the sentiment. Definitely going to pay more attention to this now, thanks for sharing!

I tried to learn dvorak, and colemak, and both ended up requiring too much investment to be worth it. This is very tempting, even though I promised myself I'd stop messing with key…

I'm currently implementing my favorite 2 player board game - Raptor - in Ruby, and this article is giving me great ideas for how to structure it better. Thanks so much to the autho…

Hi, I'm a software dev who was terrified of dance floors my whole life, and nearly gave up hope that my analytical brain could ever get comfortable with it. But I kept trying, look…

Haha love your take on the extreme opinions people have on this game. And yeah, the thought has occurred to me that, like most anticipated things, it probably wouldn't be as exciti…

Thanks :)
