This is a battle for the future of civilization. If motion smoothing continues to be activated by default on new televisions, tyranny is all that lies ahead.

@usedarkroom Written text would be even better, but if you really can't do without video, at least keep them very short. 😬

Haven’t had the chance to comment on this yet, but I think this (like full self driving) represents an unfortunate technology trend where we ignore totally feasible “boring” solutions to problems in order to instead pursue wild and/or ahead-of-their-time risky solutions.🧵

Network Time Protocol (NTP) expresses time as 64 bit numbers. The first 32 bits are the number of seconds from January 1st 1900. The remaining 32 bits express the fraction of seconds. 32 bits = 4 billion seconds or about 136 years. On Februrary 7th 2036, at 6:28 it will overflow.

In 1951, Adelbert Ames created the mind-boggling ‘Ames Window’. It’s so effective that even when you know how it works you can’t break the illusion [video from The Curiosity Show: https://t.co/DF82ASFj1a]

I’m taking a quick break from filming to tell you the best way to watch Mission: Impossible Fallout (or any movie you love) at home.

Micromobility is not a moonshot. It is here today and it allows more people to do more with more joy and economy than ever before. We don't need 3000lb vehicles to move 200lb people, or to transport a bag of food a few miles. Most trips are short. Be a rider not a driver.

gab, the social media network for nazis, has started running ads on their platform. but who would pay to advertise their products & services on a website for white nationalists, antisemites, and aspiring mass shooters? well...
