While not the main point of the article, the introductory premise is a bit off IMO. When you choose simulation, you trade artistic control for painful negotiation via an (often overwhelming) amount of controls. For a key scene like the balr

Wow that looks crazy! Link: https://radicle.xyz But honestly, I also wouldn't write about this without a lot of usage experience. For sure it's different from github/-lab etc. exciting and new, as you say.

I use Vivaldi to detect the RSS and grab the URL, but actually have my RSS in Thunderbird. Back in the days of good Opera, I had mail, chat, RSS all inside the browser. But for some reason I couldn't get back to that when Vivaldi final

Ooh nice! Didn't think about checking that. 15kb or maybe 30kb sounds indeed very good.

.woff2 file sizes of >50kb each doesn't rock me off my chair though.

Sure, can give it a try. I can think of two usecases, research and creativity. In research (not scientific research necessarily), you can fight the "I don't know what I don't know" problem. For example, all the subcatego

At first I thought, this is a reboot of the carnegy mellon CMapTools app. I may have butchered some or all names here, sorry:) That tool had some downsides, but the UX when actually creating a concept map is unmatched, imo. You can do every

Yup, same here. Also spent quite some time on it. Very pleasant surprise how easy it is to stop. Had a similar experience recently with youtube, worked well too. Last week I clicked some link leading to reddit, I was surprised I am still lo

Nice overview about FontForge. I dabbled in it once too. Yes it is a bit clunky, but I have serious doubt that the (commercial) competitors are much better. Not that I know any, not even names. Also, awesome website! Very quirky, very disti
