    🦍Thick and Thin🦒 Nickels are too thin! You know what you need? Thicker nickels, or thnickels. This is a cool thin ‘pencil tower’ in New York. It has no load-bearing interior columns, relying on its ‘concrete exoskeleton’. 🧠Illusion of Thinking for Yourself🧠 I find Apple’s Illusion of Thinking paper refreshing and I enjoy the term…

    As part of my Fizz & Buster series, I made a bunch of sketches during the process. Some were created before and some after as I planned on continuing the project into potentially a larger adventure game. But it didn’t really get off the ground for various reasons.

    In my travels I have been close to hypothermia, and I’ve also been close to heat stroke. The difference between the two is that people seem to know more about preparing for the cold than the heat. In both situations I try to be aware of the dangers and be prepared. I generally commute by…

    At one point, sparkling water was one of the most expensive and wasteful food products we were purchasing. Shipping the water from the canning facility is a major cost. The environmental cost of the trucks and fuel is in my opinion even worse. Then there are the aluminum cans: we were drinking a couple cans…

    Extra Ranty Edition! 🕹️ How Not To Fix Your Switch 2 The state of Washington is adding right to repair legislation. While most people may not be fixing their *own* phones, this allows things like repair shops to at least exist and hopefully flourish. If we want a culture of repairability, we need places that…

    Resistance The ‘bullshit’ continues with power grabs and lies with Harvard being told they can’t enroll international students. Harvard isn’t bending over and have received a temporary restraining order. Heather Cox Richardson highlights much of the bullshit in the current bill being passed by the house, including stratospheric budget increases to ICE, tax cuts for…

    I find phone typing exhausting and tedious. As technology evolves, there are always compromises. A physical keyboard takes up space, so we went ahead and got rid of them on phones. This is generally a good compromise, but I assumed that with all the permutations and experimentation we might have found a better option by…
