Returning to study after a long time and I’m astounded at how much better my recall is by summarizing instead of highlighting. I’m following the advice to rephrase the point (and series, as they append) in the margins.

somehow it's the 5 year anniversary of spreadthewordlist.com ! to celebrate, @enriqueha.bsky.social's added some amazing new tools: a grid visualizer, a database browser, and a version of the wordlist with spacing, capitalization, and punctuation. we can't wait to see what you make with it 💜

Things I learned solving www.theguardian.com/crosswords/q... 1. Jellied eels are a thing in London, which sounds absolutely frightening 2. Straiten, “to subject to distress” 3. Tract, a kind of leaflet distributed by religious groups 4. Homophones are impossible if you don’t know the soundalike

I’m now constantly surprised at how funny Dickens is in his prose: “The little narrow, crooked town of Dover hid itself away from the beach, and ran its head into the chalk cliffs, like a marine ostrich.” His humor did not come through when I was forced to read him in high school.

Big Walk is such an incredible co-op experience. Finally a game using proximity chat in a compelling way that isn’t mafia or horror related.

Watching The Prisoner for the first time and there's an episode where an omnipotent supercomputer self-destructs over the question, "Why?" It perfectly encapsulates the contrasting expectation of computational accuracy and the probabilistic reality of modern LLMs. Surprisingly prescient 1967 Sci-fi.

I’m amazed how easy it is to start editing Wikipedia articles. They have this whole gamified onboarding experience that makes the whole thing strangely addictive and hardly intimidating. Reading article talk pages is like playing Hypnospace Outlaw but in real life.
