I loved “The Joy of Fortnite”, especially Jason’s comment about his kids: “I am a firm believer that every parent should experience, as early as they can, the sensation of your kids doing something much better, like an order of magnitude better, than you can.”

The Knitting Clock

One of the links of the year so far, The Knitting Clock:

Time is manifested in physical objects; in things that grow, develop or extinguish. Time is an ever forward-moving force and I wanted to make a clock based on times true nature, more than the numbers we have attached to it.

just texted a friend “Please read three years of Ohtani fangraphs archive in advance of our next fortnite session.” and I meant it.

I played an hour of hi-fi rush this morning, it’s fun, but probably a little harder than I am comfortable with! It’s a rhythm game platformer (think: Guitar Hero meets Viewtiful Joe) and the protagonist is like Ted (of Bill and Ted) crossed with Iron Man, but with an iPod instead of an arc reactor in his heart, and a cyborg cat assistant instead of Jarvis.
