Google Maps makes starting a collaborative list less confusing

Aamir Siddiqui / Android Authority TL;DR Google Maps is rolling out a tweaked sharing menu for places. When a place is selected, tapping on the Share chip will bring up a new Share sheet with options for: Share this place, Copy link, and Share as a collaborative list. In 2023, Google Maps introduced a feature to allow users to create collaborative lists with friends and family, consisting of places everyone wanted to visit. The process was as simple as selecting a place, tapping share, and fi

Substack Is Having a Moment—Again. But Time Is Running Out

Before June 8, the skilled and respected ABC News television journalist Terry Moran was neither a household name nor political lightning rod. That changed abruptly when Moran posted on X that Donald Trump’s deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller was “a world-class hater,” followed by an addendum that the president was a hater as well. (The post was later taken down.) While the statements were certainly defendable, they apparently violated ABC policy, and Moran was suspended, then dismissed. Moran,

RSS Server Side Reader

I like the idea of RSS, but none of the RSS readers stuck with me, until I implemented one of my own, using a somewhat unusual technique. There’s at least one other person using this approach now, so let’s write this down. Let me start with a quick rundown of RSS, as the topic can be somewhat confusing. I am by no means an expert; my perspective is amateur. The purpose of RSS is to allow blog authors to inform the readers when a new post comes out. It is, first and foremost, a notification mec

In this (long) part of the customizable select series, it’s all about gamification. In this article, I’d like to highlight one of my demos, where I aimed to recreate a piece of UI found in the Monster Hunter games. To re-create this behavior, I had to think in terms of keyboard navigation first. This demo requires quite a lot of CSS, as well as some scripting, and in the end, I do want to highlight some accessibility concerns. This is an experiment on how far we can take it when styling select e

Fundamental Problems of Lisp, the Cons Cell (2024)

Fundamental Problems of LISP, the Cons Cell (this essay is originally written around 2008) The Cons Business The other fundamental problem in the language is its cons cells as its list construction primitive.

From a mathematical, functional, API point of view, what this means is that lisp's “list” is limited to a max
