Chess thoughts
Aug 06, '21If you know me, you probably know I’m a big chess fan. I’ve been playing it almost all my life, having learned it from my friend Chucky’s grampa and being fascinated by every aspect of it ever since. I definitely play too much–the internet makes it so easy to grab a quick game on a […]

Dec 26, '20
Over the past COVID afflicted year, I’ve spent countless hours learning 3D design and printing. I find that the best way to both teach and learn new skills is to take on a project with a tangible outcome––in an area the student is passionate about. For me, this was the perfect chess set.

Context Queries in CSS
Nov 18, '20Media queries are firmly established methods for serving custom experiences based on the media being used to access content. However, there’s no way to an experience based on the context being used. How crazy would it be would it be if this were possible? Imagine some code that went like: @context (currently-traveling:yes AND role:driver) { […]
Phone as mobile’s days are numbered
Oct 07, '20The portrait-oriented, single column design approach that’s become so dominant since the advent of smart phones can only last for so long.

We used to play this all the time growing up. I don’t see kids playing it anymore. Other sports are easy to get pickup going. You can play one-on-one hoops. 2-hand-touch only really needs 4 players.

Feb 26, '20A theme for artists
Feb 05, '20WordPress is great place for writers. But what about for artists? Are your needs fulfilled by the built in tools WP provides, or do you rely on plugins to present your images the way you want them to look?

Pizza is all about context
Jan 07, '20People who debate about whether or not this or that pizza is the best in the world are missing the point. Pizza is all about context. It’s different in different places because it needs to be. It reflects the unique lifestyle of a particular area. Here’s how I see the two styles I’m most familiar […]
