  • Mike McQuaid's appearance on Changelog and Friends to talk about Workbrew
  • Aaron's humble love-making blog post
  • Stripe's problematic pause button, which invokes this

  • iMessage's post-quantum cryptography
  • Execute Program by Gary Bernhardt, one of the

  • Arcade Paradise is a good game
  • The Killer is a movie
  • Also, "Team Bally Total Fitness Extreme Racing" doesn't turn up anything on Google. Just an FYI
