This year I taught a class on Doom and it was one of the best teaching experiences I’ve ever had. Here’s the syllabus: patrick-lemieux.com/pedagogy/17F… t.co/6dhUvZJdkb

I’m excited to announce the project that I’ve been working on: SIGIL, an unofficial spiritual successor to The Ultimate DOOM’s 4th episode! Read about it here: romerogames.ie/sigil/ #johnromero #romerogames #sigil #doom

If I could impart any wisdom on designers, it’s that cleverness and subtly are highly overrated – making a design that appears “obvious” is the really hard part of design.

📝 New Post: #​Edge​Goes​Chromium daverupert.com/2018/12/edge-goes…

Imagine if Microsoft adopted Firefox’s rendering engine and collaborated on making web apps on desktop a first class citizen. How awesome would that be. I’ve wanted that since I saw fluidapp.com/ in 2008 or 2009. Still a ways to go…

“Microsoft, in their abandonment of Edge and their own rendering engine, could have done the right thing. Which is to collaborate with Mozilla. It would make for a powerful alliance against Chromium/Chrome dominance.” – ferdychristant.com/the-state-of-…

Well @fchristant sums it up nicely

“They seem fine in it slugging along, in it being buggy. To invest just enough to not let it bleed to death, yet not enough to actually make it a powerful app platform.”

@kingkool68 Yeah, and a lot of the system browsers on GNU/Linux are using WebKit too. And all of the browsers on iOS are WebKit.

In all this talk about Microsoft Edge switching to Chromium’s rendering engine people seem to forget about Safari. They’re using WebKit while Chromium/Chrome are using Blink.

If you’re a WordPress developer and don’t get MasterWP.co – then a) why not? And b) @photomatt is guest editing next week. Oh – and @AlexDenning is at #WCUS this weekend and co-hosting a party with @wpshout and @wpmudev
