It's frustrating when young people are so conservative about techniques. The school system often pushes a certain kind of conformity and from the other side the job market often instills the idea that one needs to have "skills" that can be reduced to standardized techniques. For me that means that a lot of 19-year-olds think I'm a crazy heretic when I suggest that you can make a compelling image without using a particular product from the Adobe Corporation.

"Vice Magazine ... claimed a written agreement with a Mainland Chinese woman barring discussion of her sexual orientation and relationships was not “legally binding” so therefore could be ignored"
Holy shit, #vice.

Literally copied that idea from the @screenless office by @KnowPresent and "sold" it to Google.
Dear design and gamedev mastofriends: Do you know of any map/tile/level editor which supports vector graphics?
They seem like a great tool for grid-based designs, but all game map editors I found work with bitmaps, not vector/SVG.
Is there any such tool?

Assange in Court.
I was deeply shaken while witnessing yesterday’s events in Westminster Magistrates Court. Every decision was railroaded through over the scarcely heard arguments and objections of Assange’s legal team, by a magistrate who barely pretended to be listening.

The year is 2192. The British Prime Minister visits Brussels to ask for an extension of the Brexit deadline. No one remembers where this tradition originated, but every year it attracts many tourists from all over the world.

Wow, i think Im going to suggest to XR we design actions that comically fail because they make the front pages and get double spread features ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Dear fellow educators: Do you have any advice regarding self-hosting a server for students in a teaching context? Any no-nos or warnings from people who've been there?
We're now setting up a self-hosted tilde.club-like web server for teaching code and web design. We'd love any insight if you have it!

Openclipart.org has finally been [properly] replaced with http://freesvg.org
It's a site, based on Laravel, providing CC0 and public domain SVG files, including the 55,000+ we scraped from openclipart.org
You're all funny and all with your "how to exit vim" jokes, but please tell me how intuitive C-x C-c is supposed to be, emacs people
