    People don't change



    Peter Gasston / Front End London (YouTube)
    Fundamentally, people haven't changed much in tens of thousands of years. If ancient Egyptians had smartphones, you know full well that they'd have been posting cat pictures too. What can we learn from this and how should we look at our role when developing front-end Web experiences?

    What's The Longest Word You Can Write With Seven-Segment Displays?

    From now on, when I try to engage junior programmers with the notion that they should make use of their general-purpose computers to answer questions for them... no matter how silly the question?...

    Geohashing near Winchester (2018-08-23 50 -1)


    My original plan to divert to the 2018-08-23 51 -1 hashpoint during my planned journey North-to-South along almost the entire length of the 51 -1 graticule was ruined somewhat by the hashpoint turning out be farther North than my starting point!

    This checkin to geohash 2018-08-23 50 -1 reflects a geohashing expedition. See more of Dan's hash logs. Location
    Hyden Wood, near Chidden. The woods look to be criss-crossed with footpaths, so this might be pretty achievable.

    Underappreciated video presentation on how only a few small changes to the timeline of the Internet and early Web results in a completely different set of technologies and companies becoming dominant today. Thought-provoking.

    Fabulous explanation of the Strong Equivalence Principle coupled with a nice bit of recent research to prove that it holds true even in extreme gravitational fields (and therefore disproving a few interesting fringe theories). It's hard science made to enjoy like pop science: yay! Plus a Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy reference, โ€ฆ
