This is fascinating. We might think that water is transparent. But rather, we evolved to be able to see through it because we started out in it.

This was a crazy journey for me. Four months ago I'd never touched Blender, RealityKit, or any 3D modeling software.

Just finished updating Reps & Sets for iPhone Duo, and it’s looking pretty nice! Will you be buying one?

Bob Mackie has died at 87. The Sultan of Sequins gave us Cher, Carol Burnett, Diana Ross, Tina Turner and generations of performers dressed in glamour, wit, feathers, rhinestones and glorious excess. His work wasn't just fashion. It was camp as high art. Thank you, Bob. #BobMackie #QueerHistory

Hair transplants surely aren’t. Hair loss is a male-associated trait. Its called male pattern baldness. Or am I missing something? I get that the jaw line surgery is gender affirming.

It’s not even true, as Google’s press release makes clear: “we update Google Maps to reflect name changes in official government sources” - it’s not automatic. It’s an editorial choice. www.reuters.com/world/us/goo...

reuters.com

Google Maps will show 'Lake America' in US, not 'Lake Ontario'

The president's order does not have ⁠any impact on Canadian naming conventions or how the rest of the world refers to the lake.

For over a decade, Adobe put "(Legacy)" after "Save for Web..." in Photoshop because they were trying to make "Export As..." happen. Now they've finally caved, and even given Save for Web a nice update.

One of the first "outrageous" claims I saw as Jason Arday's media hounding unfolded was that he ran 30 marathons in 35 days! Wow! What a thing to claim! And the newspapers all suggested there was no evidence he actually did it. Well, they clearly didn't look very hard 🙄 🧵 1/26

This stopped me in my tracks. An independent study by @qmul.bsky.social has found that after ULEZ was introduced, children’s lungs grew faster in Central London and have now caught up with children outside of the capital. Incredible.

People are weird about books. It’s a kind of quasi-intellectual fetish. Don’t get me wrong. I love them. But reading books is not an intrinsically smarter thing to do than social media. It’s just a class signifier.

Moaning about stuff like “the coffee they serve in this place” is a form of social bonding. They may have eliminated scarcity in the 24th century but humans still gonna human.

Very cool that Shopify’s CEO thinks the poor should have far less of a vote than the rich. Still worth that ad read money, folks?

Shopify CEO Tobi Lutke says “good system.” In response to the following proposal:

“Interesting... what about weighted voting proportional to the level of income tax you pay? (no income tax paid - O vote, $1-100k - 1 vote, $100-200k 2 votes and so on... cap it at 5 votes for $500k+. For those that constantly complain about the wealthy not paying tax/fair share they'd have nothing to worry about right? Why not reward representation of taxation and build a democracy around those that foot the bill?”

Watching Avatar: Fire And Ash on Vision Pro, I noticed there is a 3D error in the final action scene. One of the boats in the background appears closer to camera than another boat in front of it! A rare technical flub for a James Cameron movie.

I feel like you could win a bet by asking "by distance, what is the nearest NHL team to Sri Lanka" and then drop the answer "the Edmonton Oilers" (via r/hockey post, "Closest NHL franchise to every point on earth")

I love that LGBTQ Nation felt the need to say "who is gay" when referring to legendary homosexual John Waters. And then went on to helpfully translate Las Culturistas as The Culturists. www.lgbtqnation.com/2026/07/john...

lgbtqnation.com

John Waters thinks lesbians loved the gay hockey drama "Heated Rivalry" for this surprising reason - LGBTQ Nation

The "Pope of Trash" dished on his storied film career while speaking with Bowen Yang on the "Las Culturistas" podcast.

Hmm - the icons weren't square, except in the Dock, just like NeXTSTEP. However, app icons had their own unique backgrounds for when they appeared in the Dock. Mail got a cloudy background in its square. The toolbar icons had squircle jail!

Graham Bower @grahambower.bsky.social · 08/07/2026

I stand corrected! It came from the NeXTSTEP dock, which put all app icons in squares. So the idea of sticking icons in squares goes way back.
