What You Should Do

This isn’t about grand heroic gestures. It’s about the daily choice to be fully present in your own moral reality.

America is Trapped in a Burning Tesla

Imagine how a private business would react if it hired a supposed efficiency expert who quickly fired crucial employees while making grandiose claims about the money he’s saving, but kept releasing progress reports that were full of ludicrous errors.

Why I Like Designing in the Browser

It can be surprising for new clients to see just how much of our design process happens in HTML, CSS and (light) JavaScript. While we do plenty of ideation exercises, sketching, wireframes, mockups and more, we like to get our hands dirty in the browser as soon as we can.

I hope that in the future, people can see red flags more clearly and that journalists identify them much earlier, without giving companies the benefit of the doubt. It’s better to be skeptical until proof is presented.

The PlayStation Network Outage Is Modern Gaming In A Nutshell

Nothing needs to work this way. Nobody benefits from not being able to access single-player games and features when servers go down. There is no upside to logging into multiple game services at once that outweighs the downsides.

The Art of Making Websites

Ultimately, a website isn’t just what you ship. It’s about who you are — and who you become — on the way to shipping.

Au Revoir Micro.blog

I've left Micro.blog after 7.5 years. I backed the Kickstarter, blogged furiously and frequently, and mostly had fun. But it was time to leave and seek other grounds.

David Lynch’s influence on video games goes far beyond Twin Peaks

Video games owe a lot to the influence of David Lynch, whether it be something as simple as being able to perceive that which sight cannot see or a snakeskin jacket that symbolizes one’s individuality and belief in personal freedom.

In the face of this, who do you want to be?

The question now is not a million miles away. Who will support? Who will collaborate? Who will decide that they are “not political” and look away as millions of people are harmed? Who will make excuses for it all?
