Have you ever wondered how a touch screen knows you are touching it? Well, it has these layers of transparent metal electrodes embedded in the display. When your finger gets close to the screen it causes a disturbance in the magnetic field that the electrodes sense. FIG_ 002 Because the electrodes are laid out on a grid, they can report back the x and y co-ordinates of the disturbance to the operating system. Pretty neat. Or maybe you’ve wondered why we call it a Gaussian blur? When we blur a

Figma slapped Swedish AI coding startup Loveable with a cease-and-desist warning for naming one of its new product features “Dev Mode.” It turns out Figma successfully trademarked the term Dev Mode in November last year, according to the US Patent and Trademark office, having introduced its own Dev Mode feature in 2023. “We’re flattered that you agree ‘Dev Mode’ is the ideal name for a software tool that helps bridge the gap between design and development,” Figma said in the letter shared by Lo

Typographic Portrait of Jean Sibelius Composed Entirely of Brass Rule In the dimly lit “printing cellar” of Media Museum and Archives Merkki is a remarkable and curious object. It’s a mosaic of tightly arranged brass rule and spacing material, made by a Finnish typographer Valto Malmiola in 1937. Note, it’s not a single piece of metal, and it’s neither engraved nor etched… it’s thousands of individual metal bits, pieced together by hand, and locked tightly into a frame for printing. Figure 1.

I’ve found a way to configure private, custom domains for web-apps I have running on my computer. So instead of having to remember and type “localhost:4333”, I can simply navigate to “appname.localhost”. I love it! Here’s how the system works: Each app is set up as a launchd daemon listening on a unique port. Here’s an example plist. I configure /etc/hosts to redirect traffic to these domains to 127.0.0.1 instead. I then run and configure Caddy to redirect traffic from 127.0.0.1 to the rig
