If my website starts to look more and more like Daring Fireball, well... I guess I am probably doing something right.
I am a graphic designer and web developer who loves to learn by taking on new challenges and solving problems.

I was thinking about how the show Severence lives in the shadow cast by David Lynch and Twin Peaks. I hope that the Severance show runners draw some wisdom from the past and choose not to give us all the answers. Let Lumon keep some mysteries. It’s what he would do.
Was reading about CSS text-box (from Friday Front-End) and I can see isolated cases where it would be useful. But my own framework is all about creating a useful baseline grid. Using text-box would seem to make that an impossible goal. I’m not a fan.
Some wisdom I am borrowing to share here: “We live in a society, not an economy.”
Does Storybook really require you to be building an app from some sort of framework? Is there no vanilla HTML/CSS implementation? What an immediate turn-off. I was considering replacing Fractal (which might no longer be maintained?) but hard pass on Storybook.
I am weeping into my black coffee and sobbing over my cherry pie.
I rode a stationary bike this morning for my workout instead of going outside to ride because of snow and salt and wind and sub-freezing temperatures so my hands and feet were nice and toasty but *damn* it sucked. I could use some warmer weather (just a little warmer) or a real solution to frozen toes.
What I want for Christmas is Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool reviewing the new Superman trailer.
Basic driving skills and common courtesy are severely lacking. No one can signal before turning, stay in their lane, park in a single space. No one obeys the speed limit, stop signs, red lights. It’s gotten really bad.
Google Gemini Deep Research and related tools are going to have a significant impact on academia. Hard o say right now if that will be a good or bad thing but our track record with technology is – to be kind – mixed.
Why is it that YouTube video reviews of cycling gear are mostly presented by people in the UK? Does no one in the US care as much? Is all the good cycling gear made for European consumers?
Nice win today at work using spaCy and Flask on macOS to build a quick web app for running named entity recognition.
