@FrankConniff Deep…. curling.

@World0fEcho It always blows my mind that Uncle Jim did a short stint in JFA.

@APMike Like just when you think it’s going to follow the most interesting thing, it drops it and takes you somewhere else. Love McCarthy for playing with the readers’ expectations. A great book.

@Quesly2 He lost me when he got all defensive about wearing skating shoes when he’s skating.

@michalmalewicz Heelflips are legit - well popped!

I always liked the Beach Boys, but was never more than a casual listener. I skipped straight from Pet Sounds to Dennis Wilson’s Pacific Ocean Blue, missing everything in between. Sitting down with their 70s albums now feels like stumbling onto an alternate timeline.

@cigarettetax I've been listening to this new song. By this band I never heard before. And they're saying there's no rules.

[Jeff Cardello @JCardello]

I love artists who aren’t afraid to pay homage to their influences. Sharon Van Etten and the Attachment Theory’s new album has a distinct voice all its own, sprinkled with hints of Stereolab, Nick Cave, and New Order. What a fantastic album.

One of the funniest/dumbest things about AI generated skateboarding videos is how obvious that they’re just modeling the physics from gameplay clips of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater.

When I built my portfolio website, I knew a bit about CSS. Now, looking at the CSS I wrote, it feels like the Finnegans Wake of style sheets. A sprawling stream of consciousness that even I’m having trouble making sense of.

Time to Tom Clancy the heck out of it.

I thought Midnight Hammer was a band who toured with Raven back in the 80s.

Web design in 2025 is about making people feel something. Whether it’s the calm of meditative design or the sugar-rush energy of brain rot, design is pushing boundaries. Read my newest blog and learn how the web is getting weird in good ways. #WebDesign

Yeah, those AI-generated videos are funny and impressive. But every camera movement and gesture feels flattened by the averages of its training data. Our brains crave something more than just a bland composite of what we've seen countless times.

RIP to Bill Atkinson, one of the greatest programmers who ever lived. At Apple he created MacPaint, QuickDraw, HyperCard and was a critical part of making the Macintosh magic. He co-founded General Magic - go watch that documentary.

@brandonadamson Yeah dude that thing has layers of contamination.

[Jeff Cardello @JCardello]

@brandonadamson I feel like that layer of cheese and the often undercooked dough right beneath it is just an incubator of nastiness.

[Jeff Cardello @JCardello]

@brandonadamson I got food poising from vegetable pizza that had clearly been there all day. I knew it was sketch, but ate it anyways 🤷‍♂️.
