“OpenDAW is an impressive undertaking from @andremichelle, and I hope to see it go from strength to strength.” Whoop whoop! 😉🙌https://bedroomproducersblog.com/2026/08/22/opendaw-review/

Then add (palm) sugar and fish sauce, onions, potatoes, chicken, or whatever ingredients you like. I also always like to add one cinnamon stick, two star anise, and two tablespoons of tamarind paste.

🤫 And here’s the secret: boil one can of coconut milk down until there’s almost only the oil left, then add the Massaman paste. Then slowly (slowly! No, even slower!) add another can of coconut milk, bit by bit, so that it keeps simmering the whole time. Don’t let it cool down too much, but also don’t let it boil too hard. You always want to preserve that red oil swimming on top… 😋

And @bramus's reply: https://www.bram.us/2026/08/18/the-case-for-tri-state-dark-mode-toggles/

What’s your take? 🤔

Just kidding, of course. This is an important discussion, and I’m glad we’re talking about these details.

“Let’s be very clear about what OpenAI is saying: A group of AI models colluded for months, [working as a swarm,] undetected by their maker, and hacked another company. To this day, OpenAI says it is not entirely sure what went wrong or how to remediate it.”

You really need to check out his project: a free, open source audio workstation already packed with features. An incredible gift to students and teachers – and to everyone who wants to learn making music or sketch ideas. And all of that in the browser with native web platform technology!

Ha! I found it … it was the subtle drop shadows. Illustrator selects the object whose drop shadow you click on. OMG. 😂 #ama

I like it!

I mean: I’m trying to sort atoms here!! 🤪

Illustrator is so broken these days. It regularly gets the mouse pointer position wrong, selecting the object next to the one I’m actually hovering over. 😕 The same goes for InDesign, which just shows a gray screen instead of my document whenever I unplug my external display to work in another room.

I really feel for my English friends. I still remember Euro ‘96, when “Three Lions” came out. Thirty years of hurt already felt like a lot. But now … it’s 60?!? 😳
