Interesting tool to see how music is linked. Works the same with all kinds of creativity and art of course, we could use more of these visualising tools

Taste at speed - by Carly Ayres and marc - Good Graf!
https://carly.substack.com/p/taste-at-speed

When anyone can produce something that looks good, the question becomes not “Can you make this?” but “Can you tell if it’s any good?” Or: “Can you make it better?”

E.W.Dijkstra Archive: On IPW's (EWD 867)
https://www.cs.utexas.edu/~EWD/transcriptions/EWD08xx/EWD867.html

The question is just as relevant and just as meaningful as the question whether submarines can swim.

In retrospect, this accident of history has been a disaster, since almost all the opinions pushed by the commercial propaganda were false, and, in addition, the propaganda has been so effective that for many those opinions have become dogmata that can no longer be challenged without committing heresy.

Opinie | De geesten worden klaargemaakt voor een permanente mobilisatie - NRC
https://archive.ph/LVZm3

Kritiek op westerse oorlogstaal wordt gezien als naïef, maar er is een blind vertrouwen op een industrie die geld verdient met het uiteenrijten van lichamen.

Laten we weigeren onze kinderen op te offeren in naam van een natiestaat

The rise of Whatever / fuzzy notepad
https://eev.ee/blog/2025/07/03/the-rise-of-whatever/

[AI hype companies are] selling the idea that doing things is worthless.

Long, but very good read about hype, that the author calls Whatever.

Beyond Bézier

Very interesting research into the effect of the common tools used in type design. Pretty much focused on type design, but should be translatable to web design as well.

Unraveling the Disability Pride Flag • Buttondown
https://buttondown.com/TYFYFL/archive/unraveling-the-disability-pride-flag/

Very, very long piece about stuff around the disability pride flag, some sort of weird conflict it seems to have with an earlier disability flag. Some interesting observations about what it really means to design with a community as well.

Wonderful, the old Japanese calendar was divided into 72 seasons, each of a few days. I wonder if something like this could be made for my backyard, for instance.

How to Become a Time Billionaire
https://archive.is/CBhrS

While the idea is nice: own your time, don’t let notifications and managers own it. There is one important flaw though: the word billionaire. Becoming a billionaire is not a good idea, it is a ridiculous american dream.
