Digest for December 2017

Summary

This month, I mocked Ruth in comic form after she slipped on black ice, criticised the popular emoji representation of “juggler”, and received a Christmas present from Three Rings‘ long-time hosting provider, Bytemark.

I shared – among other things – a sarcastic dialogue about the state of Javascript frameworks and the landscape’s impenetrability to beginners, the start of a documentary series about nuclear proliferation, and a video showing the physiotherapy my friend Jen has to perform daily for her son, who suffers from cystic fibrosis.
