You know, sometimes simple is nice. I used Bootstrap Icons the other day in a simple Vanilla Javascript app w/ Bootstrap (and jQuery-free). Loved the simplicity and speed of being able to embed the SVG directly: https://icon

HBO Max was released on May 27, 2020, and yet only the watered down HBO[Go] app with limited content is available on Roku. I am extremely frustrated with Roku -- after nearly a decade of ownership of multiple Roku devices, I'm not sure

Great article. It's funny to me that, after decades of presumably a decently well-read academic life, I'm finally able to put into context the actual meaning of "St. Elmo's Fire." I had only been tangentially aware

Thanks for putting together this list -- I've been bookmarking VC sites and manually referring to them in my job search which obviously does not scale. Feedback: * Table mode vs card mode would allow one to digest more data * All

For a fun side project, I decided to use Google Sheets as a database that would be easily editable by the general public (non-developers). It is currently populating data for a crowdsourced map of San Francisco Bay Area third-wave coffee ro

I just saw a teddy bear make an appearance in a neighbor's window and I thought it was a one-off. No idea this is a larger-scale scavenger hunt. It's nice to see a positive story every and now then -- and the UI on the iOS app loo

I took a similar path to you. I did 2 years at CC and 1.5 years at UC. And oh man, IGETC is bringing back some memories. The resource I found useful for CC students in California was the https://assist.org tool to 1:1 map out yo

For those interested in a bit more about the Armenian diaspora in Los Angeles which is particularly unique, through a food/cooking lens, Chef Marcus Samuelsson just did an episode on his PBS show last week, "No Passport Required:
