I switch to working 3 days a week at my regular gig from Jan 1. Looking forward to trying out stuff I've wanted to for a while and spending more time with the family. Mostly excited about cutting back on the "waste" generated in "going" to

Publishers, I'm guessing, want to avoid SPAM without inconveniencing their customers. This idea seems to be pitching the latter (making it easy for the customer) but says nothing about the former (SPAM!). Apart from the other issue of showi

You've summed up neatly what I've tried to do miserably in another comment. While I was fascinated when I first saw the video, the questions that kept bugging me were: What was this design optimized for? What were the design goals behind it
