Let's call out trickle down economics for what it is: the Conservatives doling out hand outs to the super rich, while ordinary people struggle. It didn't work in the past, it won’t work now. #minibudget

Still rounding things up from the fundraiser but this might have happened @TheBootRoomBar1 today. A very proud moment to now have it in place in such an intergal part of the city for activity enthusiasts and sports fans. ❤️ 2 more purchased. ❤️❤️ #defibtrentbridge #nffc

\1 Figma.com is – hands down – the most impressive web app I've ever used. Having the image editor in the browser makes everything easier, but an underrated killer feature, which I think is going to change how we build apps, is their REST API.

The privacy paranoid among us have long worried that all of our online photos would be scraped to create a universal face recognition app. My friends, it happened and it’s here: nytimes.com/2020/01/18/techn…

The Secretive Company That Might End Privacy as We Know It (Published 2020)

A little-known start-up helps law enforcement match photos of unknown people to their online images — and “might lead to a dystopian future or something,” a backer says.

The biggest story in the UK should not be about Brexit (or even the election) but about life expectancy. What is happening to the public's health in the UK will have very long term effects and implications - for decades to come. It goes mostly unreported - thecorrespondent.com/177/the…

The biggest story in the UK is not Brexit. It’s life expectancy

🚨PSA🚨 A private equity company just bought the rights to the entire .ORG domain registry. Oh, and @ICANN removed price caps, too. If your nonprofit owns a .org domain, go extend your registration out to the maximum 10 years before prices skyrocket. theregister.co.uk/2019/11/20…

Internet world despairs as non-profit .org sold for $$$$ to private equity firm, price caps axed

Sale comes within months of DNS overseer pushing through controversial contract change

This story, of a designer working on Google+, is fascinating. Couldn't put it down

Now that Google+ has been shuttered, I should air my dirty laundry on how awful the project and exec team was. I'm still pissed about the bait and switch they pulled by telling me I'd be working on Chrome, then putting me on this god forsaken piece of shit on day one.
