I think if Canada wants to have a strong cultural identity we need to go back to doing what we're best at, making the weirdest fucking TV shows you've ever seen

Die Hard isn't a Christmas movie because of the setting. It's a Christmas movie because it has The Christmas Plot:

A man who is neglecting his family to focus on work learns What Really Matters through an improbable crisis around the holidays and rededicates himself to his wife and kids

Stop telling me to use Linux. I don’t give a shit about Linux. I don’t have the time to learn Linux. I’m not going to explain to an 80 year old woman who struggles with Windows how to use Linux. It’s cool that you’ve decided to make Linux your personality but no one cares except people on Mastadon.

I have a Linux sound problem. Now I am going to ask if anyone here has any suggestions that might actually help. But here's the thing, I've been on the Internet for more than five minutes, so before I do, I'm going to say some things.

This book (The Mythical Man Month) is an example of why books can be so important and influential even decades later.

Written in 1975, in a very different time, about software engineering: some parts are still relevant today.

The parts that don’t change that much.

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.

One request I often get for the #100DaysOfSwiftUI is adding share buttons for other social networks. Honestly, I don't know *how*, particularly with federated services. So, I've taken a different approach: every day now has text you can copy/paste anywhere. I hope it helps! 🙌

Others have noted it but I will too: The big reason Bluesky is so hot right now is that the people who add value to social media - the frequent posters in specific fields - are here now, talking to each other and creating the "spectator value" that draws users and attention.
Twitter’s heir apparent isn’t X or Threads — it’s Bluesky

We're rebels. We're misfits. But mostly, we're software liberators.

Just because we believe we need to work with the world as it is, doesn’t mean we don’t believe in the possibility of a better one.
