Hoy mis tíos estaban recordando su infancia y cómo podían salir a la calle y hacer lo que quisieran. En otro momento de la conversación recordaron que antes había menos carros, pero no hicieron la conexión.

Benjamin franklin named them “bifocals” in honor of bisexuality, which he also invented

Many yearn for the "good old days" of the web. We could have those good old days back — or something even better — and if anything, it would be easier now than it ever was.

A few days ago I suddenly had a desire to port Super Mario 64 to the Gameboy Advance.

I quickly realised that a straight port was going to be impossible given that the GBA:

- Is about an order of magnitude slower than the N64
- Lacks a GPU or any sort of hardware parallelism (you get about 10 cycles per pixel, per frame to rasterise everything in software, and *that's it*)
- Has no hardware support for floating point maths

So, I guess I'm rewriting the whole thing from scratch.

That Stephen Jay Gould quote where he says "I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops" is obviously true but also it really hits home when you remember that Philip Glass was driving a taxi while he wrote Einstein on the Beach. What Uber driver has the spare time to write an opera today? Capitalism remains the greatest impediment to unleashing human creativity

idk who needs to hear this but sleep doesnt function like a debt system where you can just catch up on sleep one day of the week and be fine. if you are consistently failing to get quality sleep, the damage is still being done and a day (or a weekend) of good sleep wont make up for it.

A semi-playable Doom demo I built for #FrontEndConf using CSS scroll timeline, a handful of checkboxes and has() selectors + a nice assist from image-rendering: pixelated.

Oh and no JS, as god intended.
