A week ago I blogged about an app named Chrome Browser Default in the Mac App Store. This app is no longer available in the Mac App Store. I had deleted the app from the Applications folder on my Mac, and now I can’t download it again from the Purchased section of the App Store app. I have no idea why the Dutch name...
NIGHT HUNTER ROBIN BATMAN & ROBIN (KENNER) Okay, we’re gonna do this Batman & Robin thing. One. More. Time. For now, at least, because this effectively wraps up what remains of my childhood collection, such as it is in reviewing condition. Might change later, I guess, because who knows? So, let’s cap things off with...
The Journey is proud to present our newest staffer, Ms. Valerie McElroy, who recently became conductor of the San Diego Symphony Chorus. Not only is she shattering glass ceilings galore, but she also brings a discerning artistic eye, as you shall see with her first (but hopefully not last!) piece for this...
Finally the long awaited reissue of Drukqs has arrived with preorders (here and here) for various physical editions going live today at 3PM BST. The following editions are now available to purchase for release expected by the 30th of October this year apart from Vinyl Box Set which is due on the 4th of December....
For the heck of it, I decided to whip together a submission for the Killer Shorts one-page horror script competition. Since the actual text might not see the light of day unless it's a finalist or winning entry, I wanted to archive it here for anybody who might like to read it. Presenting, for your enjoyment......
I was at a party on Saturday night when someone came in and said that a van had driven into the Berlin Christopher Street Day parade, killed one person, injuring more. I’ve never been to CSD; go, instead, to the Internationalist Queer Pride demo that, since 2021, has been organised in contradistinction to the...
To Matt's question my only answer is "yes". Apple is all the company types he suggests but it's leaning heavily towards rent seeking while bringing very little to the table. I'm annoyed every month when I pay my Apple One family bundle. I'd cancel it for myself, but my wife and kids use Apple Music so I'm stuck...
From The Traveler: One Man’s Quest for Humanity from the South Seas to Revolutionary Paris, by Andrea Wulf (Knopf, 2026), Kindle pp. 229-231: By the end of 1776, less than four months after he had written the first word, the manuscript of A Voyage Round the World arrived at the printer. Publication was eagerly...
Street-Smart Coding Manifesto Crafting clean code alone won’t save you or make you stand out. That’s not the real edge. Why this book? When I started, I thought my only job was writing code. I obsessed over syntax and lines of code. I ignored meetings, calls, and emails. I only wanted to code, code, and code. But I...
To blog is to get dunked on. I accept this. I even sometimes wonder if I should be grateful, as I suspect my willingness to get dunked on may represent a kind of comparative advantage. (You can tell yourself that if you try to placate the haters, you’ll just ruin things for people who like you. But how do you feel...
