Being Interdisciplinary feels like practicing non-attachment. Different disciplines come in & out of focus in waves, each a whole world. Engaging with philosophy gives access to different ontologies than engaging in neuroscience or AI. This helps us evaluate each field from within & outside itself.

Bret Victor has really figured out the best way to learn and teach via his communal computing project

His lab dynamicland has been working on a way of doing everything that you can do with a computer, outside the screen, on a table, on the walls.

Frame of preference A story of early Mac settings told by 10 emulators.

I wrote something new! It’s a UI design history essay about Mac’s Control Panel, and it uses emulation in some… maybe new and maybe interesting ways?

Swift.org Swift is a general-purpose programming language built using a modern approach to safety, performance, and software design patterns.

Swift SDKs for WebAssembly are now available on swift.org for 6.2 and `main` development snapshots!

Huge announcement for me personally, this is something I could only dream of when almost 7 years ago I joined a few volunteers maintaining a patchset for Wasm support

The image shows the NAMES Project AIDS Memorial Quilt on display on the National Mall in Washington D.C. in October 1996. This particular display, from October 11-13, 1996, was the last time the entire quilt was shown in its entirety, covering the vast expanse of the National Mall from the Washington Monument towards the U.S. Capitol. It featured over 40,000 panels and drew approximately 1.2 million visitors.

Cucumis metuliferus, the African horned cucumber, is an annual vine in the cucumber and melon family, Cucurbitaceae. Its fruit has horn-like spines, hence the name "horned melon". The ripe fruit has orange skin and lime-green, jelly-like flesh.

#Playground macro and "swift play" idea for code exploration in Swift Hi everyone, I’d like to share an idea to help provide a new way of exploring, exercising and playing with code in Swift. Inspired by the Playgrounds features in Xcode and the Swift Playground app – ...

Well this is a very neat proposal.

C++ creator Bjarne Stroustrup reimagines how coding is taught In his Thursday talk, Bjarne Stroustrup, creator of the C++ programming language, emphasized the need for three different types of introductory computer science classes.

I would not have guessed that I would agree so much with Bjarne Stroustrup on how to teach programming.
