Exclusive | The Onion Brought Back Its Print Edition. The Gamble Is Paying Off. Publications turn to the old-style products to appeal to nostalgic readers and stand out in a crowded digital-media landscape.

Some incredibly good news:

One year ago this week, The Onion returned to print.

In that one year, we’ve grown to the 13th largest print newspaper in the United States, just ahead of the Boston Globe, and growing fast.

In short, it’s working.

So… thank you. Thank you for helping save this thing.

I’m depending on the need for this push back going forwards. As a software dev trainer I always encourage delegates to reason about the code they write. Pretty soon that will be the only skill left as the actual code writes itself.

I made a typeface, it's called Flexflex 🔠

I've been working on this project on-and-off for many months. Very happy to finally release it!

Flexflex is a typeface that responds to spatial requirements rather than imposing them.

JetBrains working on higher-abstraction programming language The as-yet-unnamed language in development would produce cross-platform applications and make AI code generation more controllable, transparent, and useful.

If anyone can do it, they can.

Back to the fog and phantom trees slowly emerging from the eerie atmosphere of Scottish weather.
Visually this kind of scene makes me feel like I am a stranger suddenly entering another land.

I don’t think Russell, Whitehead and Wittgenstein depended on publishing. They all had independent incomes and used to hang with each other. So in that sense maybe both Principia Mathematica and Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus were amateur works?

At the start of a renovation project that is 100% renewables powered, this is encouraging, and my weeping at the prices has partially subsided..

You may know that a new popover type recently landed. But what is it exactly? And why did we need it?

I wrote a post all about it!

Learn about popover=hint, how to use it today, and how it'll be even more handy with interest invokers in the future!
