Tucci Pan Review

Stanley Tucci has a set of cookware named after him that GreenPan sells. I’ve got these two pans: I forget where they came from exactly, some silent auction or something, but I unboxed and started using them about 8 months ago. I was so hyped the first few months! It’s my daily-driver pan. I’d say […]

You Get Good At What You Do (Or Do You?)

I used to feel really strongly about this. You get good at what you do. Like, if you build websites all the time, you get good at building websites. If you make burritos all the time, you get good at making burritos. It could extend to almost anything. Healthy places that fit into the logical […]

Miscalibrated

I’ve been gaining weight again. More than twenty pounds in the last ~4 months. I’ve been hitting the gym hard and getting measurably stronger, so: Food! See, your boy can eat. The amount I can eat before I feel full would astound most of you out there. Whatever you think of as a complete hearty […]

The Good & Not Good

I’ve spent more time with religious people in the last year than perhaps I have in my whole life. It’s got me thinking about religion with more curiosity than I ever have. So I’m having what are probably middle-school level thoughts. I’ve forever identified as agnostic, likely because that’s how most of my family rolled […]

Tubes

Me, Stacey, and Miriam kicking it talkabout about CSS Scope & Mixins: Daniel and I chattin’ about playing the long game

Just in case I haven’t made my feelings clear lately on the current United States of America administration, I shall blog. It’s the little things that make me think Donald Trump is a vindictive prick who, among his catalog of things he hates, is Black people. For instance, he’s chosen to change what days are […]

Worry Bird

I think the Worry Bird is a cute idea. You use it to, ya know, worry into, by rubbing your thumb into the satisfying little divot to do so. Of course, us web workers tend to turn our worry into superfluous personal website redesigns. [feels urge growing]

The Breakaway Moment

I know I’ve mentioned a ton of times: while I enjoy playing videos games sometimes, a little, I enjoy watching other people play them more. Even as a little kid. Like an awesome play date would be going over to a friends to watch them play. Perfect world, the friend would only play when I […]

Normally I like to work or read on planes, but on a return home flight yesterday I was exhausted to the point that movies sounded best. Four (!) movies on Netflix:

Jeremy: The common belief is that nobody uses RSS feeds these days. And while it’s true that I wish more people used feed readers—the perfect antidote to being fed from an algorithm—the truth is that millions of people use RSS feeds every time they listen to a podcast. That’s what a podcast is: an RSS […]

Quite a lovely essay from Henry: When those promises of exorbitant wealth and a life of decadence through per-click monetization ultimately dry up (or come with a steep moral or creative cost), creators and learners must look for new solutions for how educational content is shared on the Internet. The most self-evident, convivial answer is an old […]

Default Apps Early 2026

It’s a time of slow change for me when it comes to the apps I use most regularly. I also maintain my subscription to SetApp, because I use a handful of things it offers that makes it super worth it: TablePlus, Typeface, Paste, CleanMyMac, Bartender, etc.
