I have not had as many chances to build websites lately because for a little over the past 100 days, I’ve been in a non-developer role at work.

And so, when my friend, Kathy Giori, reached out about …

Here is a round-up of all of my video essay work available for public consumption made in the last calendar year. The big project was An Aim Not Devoid of Merit, a look at the complete works of Steven Spielberg, created with Tucker Johnson. I added several titles to my ongoing series Other West, about offbeat westerns: John Frankenheimer's Andersonville, Jordan Peele's Nope, and Bruce Beresford's Black Robe. I released …

As a child in the early 1980s, Saturday morning television was a straight choice between two main contenders, each with its own dedicated and fiercely protective following. The first was ITV’s TISWAS, feared by parents across the land due to its anarchic and unpredictable format, and much throwing of custard pies and buckets of water. (For the record, this was my favourite!) The BBC’s offering was Noel Edmonds’ Multi-Coloured Swapshop. …

The electronic version of the latest issue of the Girls’ Angle Bulletin is now available on our website. We open with the second half of our interview with Boston University Professor of Mathematics Jennifer Balakrishnan.

It’s been a couple of months since I’ve been able to get into the workshop, which has happened before, but it’s always a little hard to get back into the swing of things. Mostly I’ve been dragging my heels on getting back into doing design work, of which I have a bunch to do. It’s all felt quite overwhelming knowing where to start, but thankfully a conversation with a couple …

OMG. I can't believe October is over already. I blame Satisfactory which, okay, I do get it now, and it did destroy my body and mind. I am inches from being done now; I just want to make sure that I finish it with enough force that I do actually put it away, as I could imagine tinkering with my saddest factory forever. The game isn't without flaw, but I …

The railway brought humanity out of isolation by reducing both time and effort of travel Picture Paris in the early 1830s: a city of narrow, winding streets, where the fastest way to travel was by horse-drawn carriage. A journey to Lille (220 km / 150 miles) could take two exhausting days. Then imagine the same city thirty years later with grand railway terminals dispatching steam-propelled trains that carried thousands of …

Working with bigger companies meant figuring out how to plug ourselves into lots of standard big-company processes. One of the processes we had to learn was how to tell customers how much money they owed us so that we could get paid. We needed to generate invoices.Cal wrote the initial invoice system. We did a few google searches for “invoice template” to figure out what goes on an invoice. He …

MANY HAVE TRIED to pin Trump to Heritage’s “Project 2025.” The Trump campaign has not only refused to endorse Project 2025—they have refused to endorse any detailed policy plan whatsoever. Trump prefers to keep his options open. One unanticipated benefit of this approach is that Republicans have spent much of the last year engaged in intensive but open debates over policy. Ambitious politicians, congressional offices, and think tanks have laid …
