Objectified (2009, 75 minutes) is a documentary film about our complex relationship with manufactured objects and, by extension, the people who design them. What can we learn about who we are, and who we want to be, from the objects with which we surround ourselves?

Either YouTube Music is really dumb. Or my listening history is too weird to model. It generates a playlist called “Asian music”, which is a basket of Japanese songs of vastly different genres, Mandarin pop from Taiwan and a few Uyghur songs.

This may sound weird but LeetCode is fun.

Why does everybody say they are speaking Portuguese, when they are actually speaking English in Shogun?

Every time i see a like button in an app i ask myself what is liking? 

(i know the UX teams at these companies have had this question too)

When you see a sad post on Twitter and like the post does that mean you like what happened?

Why don’t we go and get a bottle of wine?

Why does the standard social network timeline look like a new->old column? Twitter arguably invented this and opened their patent. Has anyone experimented other ways to represent a timeline on a social network?

T-shirt idea: Black text in Helvetica on white: “The quick brown fox jumps over the innocuous Helvetica.”

We are launching Posts in the app store tomorrow and as part of that we are sharing it on Product Hunt as well. We’d really appreciate an upvote while we catch some zzz’s before tomorrow’s announcement. Thank you so much!

Lovely folks, in case you have not yet watched the documentary "Objectified" or simply just want to watch it again (and again), there's a free online screening from 14 to 17 March over here for its 15th anniversary. Enjoy :)

Speaking of new AI tools, I'm not worried in the least. I remember once at a tech meetup in Stockholm. There was this guy who talked about how he had learned a new programming language by reading code generated by GitHub Copilot.

Badminton balls have a name!? And they are called shuttlecocks!?

Heavy wind in Gbg again. It’ll be a sunny day today.

My new favorite word is “unknown”.

Because TypeScript.

The past is a foreign country. Where you are from is also a foreign country.
