Based in Cambridge and would consider travelling down for the occasional meetup - but would really appreciate some of the events being virtual if possible?

Highly recommend ’Touch the Sound’ on Netflix on this topic. Evelyn Glennie is a spectacularly talented concert percussionist - she’s unable to hear at all in any conventional sense yet experiences music in ways that blew my mind…

There was a rumour some years ago (based on a tweet from a member of staff there) that Panic were working on an email app for mobile devices. Even now I still hope that rumour is true - a genuinely well designed email app made the usual hig

What’s worse is that you can’t say ‘end my subscription when the current billing period expires’ - you can only cancel when you’re in a magic 1 month window when your plan is about to renew. I was 15 years + user of Illustrator and Photosho

This would be entirely acceptable if Google Accounts and Workspace weren't inseparably linked. I've got 15 years of purchases made using my Google account - now I'm forced to pay monthly if I want to retain the things I'

Also in that very same boat. I'm prepared to go through the pain of migrating email, calendars etc. - but I've not been able to find out if there's any way to retain the app / video purchases made under the Google accoun

Yeah - there’s some really lovely touches to Paprika - like: - easily scale the recipe to make different quantities - convert units used to one you’re more familiar with. - wherever the recipe says ‘do x for 10 minutes’ you can tap on the t

I've not used it yet - but planning to give Nextra ( https://nextra.vercel.app/ ) a go next time around. The 'docs' theme is intended as a quick way to produce a documentation website based on Next, which you c

The material had been transferred when I started working on it - but as I understand it, they had 2 x Nagra 1/4” machine running pretty much continuously. The cameras were filming sporadically and not all of the audio tapes had been re

I was one of the 2 audio engineers who worked on restoring this footage around 15 years ago - so very excited to see what the final docs look like. There’s definitely some interesting material in there - members of the band reflecting on wh

I’m not sure why you think this? We have finite resources, a heavily populated planet and a few nations consuming the vast majority of the resources. Do you honestly think that’s maintainable in perpetuity? I’d suggest your viewpoint is hig

Around 15 years ago couch to 5k was what did it for me. For years I’d battled with the perception of sports I’d been give by school - that sports were for those who ‘had ability’. I didn’t have ability, never got picked for teams, and conse

Growing up we first had a Sinclair Cambridge calculator, then a ZX81 (complete with a 16K RAM expansion pack!), then a Spectrum that we upgraded to a Spectrum+ by sending off for the upgrade kit. We even had a Sinclair thermal printer... So
