Not a product, per se, but a policy—biennial OS updates. Initial release carries all of the major new features. Subsequent minor updates carry refinements and improvements, including a "major-minor" release at the one year mark that could add sub-feature additions or upgrades on a larger scale.

3. everyone who can read this deserves unselfconscious joy through whatever means they can find it - it is a fundamental part of the human experience and whether that’s creating art or watching sports or driving a big, silly, loud, happy Corvette, I hope you find a way to unlock that part of you

To celebrate my first merged PR into Firefox core, I wrote a too-long article on Contextual Design for (Opinionated) Component Libraries. frehner.me/blog/context... And it concludes with my reasons for submitting patches to Firefox and WebKit. Lots of thanks to everyone who helped out, or

Recent rave mix from me! Played a fun one back in December and only recently got around to re-recording the history into a mix at home and uploading it. First one in a while! #ukgarage #speedgarage #rave soundcloud.com/konvurt/tigh...

Live @ The Tightmare Before Christmas 2025 [REDUX]
Back once again—been a while, eh? In December, I had the opportunity to play the 2025 edition—and 17th year!—of one of the best parties the New England rave scene has to offer: Tight Crew's Tightmare

I used to work there and was proud of that work. I'm quite frustrated with them now.

As if I needed any more justification for all I've spent supporting artists on Bandcamp. AI can be a truly amazing tool when used for the right reasons—but those reasons will never include supplanting artistic talent. Kudos for this in-no-unclear-terms decision.

At 12 years old I wanted the world to know how much I loved the coolest character ever—Boba Fett—so I learned how to make a (bad, ugly) website to showcase that. The means were so much more fun than the end and the rest is history.

Revisiting one of the best game scores of all time while coding this afternoon. @amontobin.com's Chaos Theory is an experimental ambient and breakbeat masterpiece that runs the gamut from darkly brooding to jazzy with a future sound decades ahead of its time. amontobin.bandcamp.com/album/chaos-...

@theracingline.app been waiting for a lovely native iOS app that does this so well, as someone who has been (poorly) managing motorsport viewing schedules in Calendar for years. Instant subscription to Pro, a no-brainer! #imsa #sebring #wec

Feels like 2009 all over again... history doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes!
