In the coming year I fully intend to say, 'Well, hindsight is -' and then I'll gesture broadly around and I will do it all the time because you only get one year of that cleverness.

update: was not good

Does anyone else have creativity hangovers? Like when you write something late in the night and really enjoy the result, then the next day you feel mildly revolted and embarrassed, and then in a few more days it’s OK again.

Years ago I saw an interactive essay where you could control the level of detail in the prose. It was either through a slider controlling detail of all segments, or each sentence being backed by a paragraph and you could click to expand. I can’t find it now, anyone have a link?

Patterson’s new volley ball team name is “Hit me baby Yoda one more time” Past team names include my absolute favorite, “Net Neutrality”

That was absolutely a Star Wars movie.

Here’s to another decade of backside ollies and all the moments in between: 1980, 1990, 2000, 2010 (omitted for space) and [very recently, so almost] 2020. https://t.co/LtKfHMoYXh

I sometimes resist identifying as a JavaScript (or web, or React) developer, despite obviously being one, because I think there are many languages and domains I would enjoy just as much. What I like is building software.

I have some specific business goals for this year, but my resolution as a designer is to make weirder things — use odd fonts, unlikely type pairings, draw strange glyphs, monograms, and logos. Be willing to make stuff that might be misunderstood or conceptually take some effort.

January 1 marked not only the start of 2020, but also Public Domain Day! Now, a cache of 95-year-old paintings, sculptures, films, and works of literature can be freely reproduced for the first time: https://t.co/cuBDz4oE8Z https://t.co/uSaVR3WW3O

Everyone should be able to say stuff like: * Meet with Dan 2–3 times a month, don't care when * Book a meeting with these 10 people in the next two weeks * Find me 4+-hour work blocks with no interruptions And then you get a globally-optimal schedule for everyone's constraints.

Excited to be joining Publicis Sapient soon. Going to work with @johnmaeda and some other amazing folks to see how far we can push Computational Design forward.

@MattNavarra Hopefully there will be an option to stop statements appearing in your timeline. If someone is unwilling to have their views challenged or developed then I have no interest in hearing what they have to say.

Love these rugs by artist Alexandra Kehayoglou. A combination of sculpture and installation, art and craft, Kehayoglou’s pieces are both functional and environmentally conscious https://t.co/WqXh323xOU https://t.co/UM0pYxOkbH

@ExploreWellcome @EdCheverton @Mailchimp @markdicristina Oskar Stålberg and Richard Meredith work together as Plausible Concept - the creative minds behind the hit strategy sim @BadNorthGame.

how can this January already be longer than the whole of 2019

Want to use @polyfillio but don't know what JavaScript features and web APIs are being used in your website? Here's a tool which will do the work for you! `npx create-polyfill-service-url analyse --file bundle.js` https://t.co/6r8uazZDNs

someone tell me using a bad idea. because it seems like it'd introduce a blocking request just for old browsers.

@davatron5000 What you may prefer to do is use my https://t.co/29YaS03zrD url builder and give it a browserslist config to figure out the exact https://t.co/29YaS03zrD your website requires to work in the browsers you support -- https://t.co/bkOInBbafu

I want to see a significant shift in the tech industry where contributors (employed or contracted) are *allowed* and *encouraged* to share their work in their portfolios.

It's great to see Microsoft's leadership in this area. Avoiding the worst effects of climate change will require innovation and investment to get us to net zero carbon emissions across all sectors of the economy. https://t.co/plEjWeqdPg

A guy who I was meant to go on a date with has now cancelled on me three times. I just sent him a message saying ‘I swear I just saw you in a corner shop in Notting Hill’ and sent him this and he blocked me 😂 https://t.co/fz8iFWjJ0C
