My piece with The HTML Review just came out, on a digital and physical walk I'm planning across the Korean Peninsula. It is about a personal project a few years in the making. Thank you to Max & Shelby for being wonderful, patient editors:

Always funny watching the internet bros think Nietzsche wanted young men to be ruthless, rules-exempt individualists who dominate others, when he actually just wanted them to be dancers

one of the great pleasures of using discogs to catalog records is the stunning regularity with which you acquire something that is not already part of the database. Tens of millions of releases cataloged, and still human musical production is so great that there are constant gaps

DOOM fully rendered in CSS. Every surface is a <div> that has a background image, with a clipping path with 3D transforms applied. Of course CSS does not have a movable camera, so we rotate and translate the scene around the user.

Project Gutenberg is one of those places that exemplifies what the internet was initially all about: studying, preserving, and celebrating the arts, especially the written word, and Greg Newby was a huge part of that. Thank you, Greg, and rest well.

I made a little toy for exploring and mixing mathematically possible backbeat rhythms! In a 2-beat 16th-note grid with kick/snare/hat, there are 1,458 combinations. And in combination, there are 2,125,764 ways to fill in a 4/4. Enjoy playing ALL of them here:
