Capon: Caring is what counts most. Any effort spent in caring for even a minor good is on the side of the angels. And it is contagious; the minor can spread to the major. I developed a time schedule for writing only after I successfully made time to practice the recorder. I acquired a working knowledge of what care felt like, and then transferred it to a field where I knew I should care more than I did.

Loved this answer from Dana Gioia on what he learned from Auden. "Auden gave me the permission to write libretti, to write song lyrics, to work with jazz musicians, to do translations, to do long poems ... to work in any style I wanted to." "He did not allow himself as a poet to become hyper specialized"

Pieper: ubi amor, ibi oculus— the eyes see better when guided by love; a new dimension of "see-ing" is opened up by love alone!

We are hosting an SF-edition of this dinner + study (with Pastor Clark) next Thursday, April 2nd with @philipcdavis & @georgiatdavis in Bayview! Topic will be “Creating and Imaging: Technology and the Image of God." Dinner will be provided, and it should be a warm evening of fellowship with people across all faith backgrounds. Space is limited, so please DM if you'd like to join :)

Hosting these monthly dinner & discussions in my tiny studio with Pastor Paul @PTMNYC has been one of the top highlights of this past year. We wanted to create a space where anyone, regardless of your faith background, can gather for honest conversations about faith and life over a warm meal. Some photos from last night's dinner on the topic "What if Jesus had never been born?" Grateful to have met everyone who's joined over these last few months. We hope you'll join us in the new year!

Conway on Bugatti: "He was not a qualified engineer; he had received no technical education and possessed no diplomas. He had learned as he went along, from experience which increased with the years, and a natural mechanical ability aided by a gift of observation."

A car reviewer describes his experience with Bugatti’s early cars, explaining what made driving them pleasant. Not just power and speed. A sense of liveliness!

A young Ettore Bugatti describes what it feels like to get pulled into a creative and technical profession. Constructing. Destroying. Beginning again.

Thrilled to share the project we’ve been working on for the past year! Liquid Glass is a flexible material that constantly adapts to its size and environment, and lays the foundation for a unified design language across all our platforms.

It was during this time that they designed the arrangement of pulldown menus across the top of the screen that is so familiar today. [They] achieved dramatic breakthroughs by generating their ideas every day and advancing them by a combination of prototyping and user evaluation.

Then they would brainstorm for ideas and decide what to try next, so that Bill could go off and spend the night programming. In the morning he would bring in a new prototype and then go home to bed. They used this method for several intense weeks until the specification was solid

Andy Hertzfeld on Bill Atkinson's working style: During the night Bill would make prototypes of user interface concepts, written in a robust enough code to support some form of testing, Then Larry would run user tests during the day.
