I was reading through this article “The Man who killed Google Search” from Ed Zitron https://www.wheresyoured.at/the-men-who-killed-google/ I’m someone who has implemented search at a whole bunch of different companies (and got half way through writing a book on Search for O’Reilly before doing a startup put a crimp on that).

Brit Tooters - I’m trying to verify my account on the Government Gateway from abroad but it says that the information I supply doesn’t match their records either NI number or any last conceivable post code.

Anybody else experienced that?

Super excited by the launch of @mightymeld

It's a drag and drop dev tool for React that works seamlessly with your existing codebase. It's kind of looks like magic tbh.

A few months ago I saw a picture of this weird computer made of wood. I went to LA to meet the guy who made it, and found a new vision for how we build and use gadgets. And, of course, to play with the wood computer! https://www.theverge.com/23841276/mythic-computer-keegan-mcnamara-pc-builder

To live with a La Croix drinker is to spend a significant portion of your life collecting half drunk cans and disposing of them.

@sue I went to a greasy spoon this week that I used to go to but which is now on a bunch of “best breakfasts” lists. The way they’ve adapted their workflow to deal with both the increased volume, but also the increased number of tourists who aren’t au fait with Full English options, should be used as lessons for management, for manufacturing efficiency and for polite but firm customer service
