In 1993 I had my 11th birthday party at a bowling alley and they had a Ridge Racer cabinet. Seeing those graphics completely rearranged my molecules. I had no idea that a video game could look so realistic.

I know this is getting downvoted, but I think there's a few croutons of truth in this snarky soup.

Start a newsletter for the audience you’d like to one day serve. I run a small but growing business (£0.5m) that I started in 2017. But for the first 3 years I had a job. For most of that time it was largely an email newsletter - completely

This is why we stick with ConvertKit. Other email providers make you jump through hoops to send an email newsletter that looks like it came from a person.

I researched these a while ago and the way these “titles” work is simple: you change your name by deed poll to “Lord Appleseed” or whatever you fancy. Although amusingly while they say deed poll, there’s no such concept in law. In actuality

Touché, I have zero experience of goats. Thanks for putting me right!

>There's no real reason to call the fox knowingly malicious and the goat not. I think we imagine foxes to have a level of cunning that a placid goat lacks.

It's similar, but not quite equivalent. The fox is malicious. It knows it will destroy the property, whereas the goat is happily oblivious to the destruction it brings.

I run a community for agencies (Agency Hackers). I wonder if a flat fee would have been the way to go here? Was that something you looked at? Also, this was an interesting post, and I would love to have you talk to our community about it so

There's a good Darknet Diaries episode about a social engineer who makes money from these SEC bounties: https://darknetdiaries.com/episode/80/

I run a community for people who run marketing services agencies. We didn't have an online forum, and things like Slack just didn't seem conducive to long-form, quality discussion. I was very close to using some vBulletin type sof

I'm always surprised and intrigued when people recall discovering music through Napster. All I remember is using it as a pirate search engine for songs that I already knew I wanted. How did Napster work as a music discovery tool? Obvio

It's quite strange (and nice) to see a hint of nostalgia creeping back in to Apple's communications. For a long time, celebrating its history seemed verboten at Apple? There's that story of Jobs getting rid of the Apple Museu

In September 2004, I went to the World Wide Newton Conference in Paris. A chap called Adam Tow gave a talk where he showed us an email he got from Steve Jobs about the future of the Newton. Basically, one day in 1997 or 1998 Adam was walkin

I’ve never quite grasped, what does the term “condition” mean in this context?

Can anybody explain why the rouble is at a five-year high? Or is there something in the intricacies of currency pairings that means this high isn't quite like other "highs"?

I worry that not enough people are aware of these little touches, and that one day they'll disappear.

Love Preview, but the markup features are seriously confusing. It isn’t clear how the shapes and the colours relate to one another, so even after 12 years drawing a filled box is much harder than it needs to be.

Some kid is going to stand up and say: “You can throw me in jail or cancel my degree but I’m not paying my student debt… who’s with me?” And then the whole house of cards that is higher education collapses.

I also use Vimeo as a B2B solution and the “indie YouTube” side really frustrates me. Every time I search my own videos to find something, Vimeo defaults to scouring all its public videos and throwing up all kinds of twee college projects a

Yes - I also recall reading this in 2002 when Google took over the Deja News archive. It’s odd to reflect that it’s been longer since I first read this nostalgic post… than the time it was actually looking back on. I’m sure I could word tha
