Quoting ourselves here, but it’s absolutely insane to us that anyone still uses Twitter. You don't have to. You can just stop. It was a *massive* part of our growth but you can just let it go. However important your business is to you, it's less important than this:
Elon Musk, "These lovely small towns in England, Scotland and Ireland, they've been living their lives quietly. They're like hobbits"

"And so one day, 1,000 people show up in your village of 500 and start raping the kids"

"This has now happened, God knows how many times in Britain"

This will dominate the papers for the next few days until Farage issues a full public apology and resigns.

Or it won't.
“Farage claimed last year to have “bought a house” in his constituency but the property is actually owned in the name of his partner, meaning he legally avoided higher-rate stamp duty on the purchase of an additional home – given he already owns other properties”

The little creatures and the game they are contained in are featured pretty heavily in this trailer.

I worked on them over a year ago. Been in this industry for far longer than I would like to admit, but still get excited by stuff like this.

I'm putting together a slide illustrating how generative AI is being forced on people even though they don't want it, and this is sort of funny.

Here's are Google's autocomplete suggestions for "google gemini how to", and Bing's autocomplete suggestions for for "microsoft copilot how to".

GIDDYUP! Who's ready for this year's Double Oregon Trilogy!?

We've brewed and packaged the beers and the cans and kegs are starting to head out to wholesale and trade (not got yours locked in yet? -> beer@elusivebrewing.com).

We'll be celebrating Double Oregon Day on 31st January. Stay tuned!

Overly excited by the prospect of Jason Mantzoukas on Taskmaster next series. Has the potential to be absolutely unmissable TV.

Very important for everyone in the British politics to understand what we are dealing with here, and the stakes involved. Not politics as normal.

@threebeansaladpod.bsky.social I'm only about 18 months late (just listened to the Teachers Episode). But I'm 99% certain this is the gossamer thin cereal being referenced (also 99% sure several hundred people will have already told you this...)

And so we move into the next phase of reality’s Squid Game: the end of fact-checking. From now on, what happened, what you think happened, and what you wanted to have happened, are all of equal value.

This is delightful.

It also reminded me of the proudest moment of my career so far; having one of my UI screens immortalised in Lego form.

The UX of LEGO Interface Panels
LEGO interface panels are beautiful, iconic, and great for learning interface design basics. I bought 52 of them from BrickLink to explore the design, layout and organisation of complex interfaces.
