The hardest working font in Manhattan A story of a 150-year-old font you have never heard of – and one you probably saw earlier today.

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?

I recently upgraded all my home network gear and cameras to Ubiquiti stuff that largely uses PoE

Something I hadn't considered with PoE is I can just have the fan-out switch on a UPS and everything else stays powered during an outage without needing UPSes in the attic and other random places
