  • While kids are now more likely to be diagnosed with ADHD due to increased awareness and better diagnostic methods, this can also lead to an interesting “reverse echo” effect where their parents have a sudden realization that they’re ADHD too.

    Hearing about the symptoms from a doctor talking about your child can be an eye-opener that stuff we called “laziness” and “being too sensitive” back in the 80s might have a better name.



  • The quick adjustments to tileable blueprints sound amazing. Such a great idea!

    Somehow I thought the pipette on water to get an offshore pump (like how you can pipette on an ore field for a miner) was already a thing. That and the quick access to landfill will save so much time when designing nuclear plants.

    The spidertron stuff sounds nice too, but they’re usually so late game that I haven’t minded the slightly clunky v1.1 status quo.

    The ASF has renamed their conferences from ApacheCon to Community over Code, so foundation leadership seems receptive to moving away from the Apache name.

    I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if the name is changed in the next couple of years.

    The name was originally just a silly joke, since it was “a patchy web server” (as it was an open source web server abandoned by the original author, but kept going by a community sharing patches to fix bugs and add features).
