Excellent thread on this.

Holy shit, just learned about the typewriter art of Montserrat Alberich Escardívol, a Catalan typist. Using an extra wide typewriter and 180 color ribbons, she built up elaborate images from simple characters like 'm' and '.' and ';'. Here is her typewritten painting of the Cathedral of Barcelona.

Better designed streets, complemented by better alternatives to driving, are absolutely a better way to reduce speeding and dangerous driving, but the thing is that *we have to actually build them.*
Speed cameras are the relatively cheap response to realizing we already screwed up.

New Abacus Data polling finds Ontarians prefer traffic calming infrastructure over automated speed cameras.
Half say measures like speed bumps, roundabouts and police enforcement are more effective.

I really do hate the term 'metroidbrania'. I think so do many of you. Let's nip it in the bud before it becomes something people are financially invested in.

Against 'Metroidbrania': a Landscape of Knowledge Games
What are knowledge games? How do we relate them to each other? What sub-genres exist – and which ones might be implied?

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

We NEED to find the self-respect (and curiosity about the rest of the world) to stop reporting on tech news in terms of whether we are shamefully backward or acceptably modern.
We don't stand for this simplistic approach in sports journalism - can we hold business journalism to the same standard?
