@GuardianBooks This book by @cgseife about the history of Fusion and the constant hype around it is really great goodreads.com/en/book/show/3… I always check with his view when a new “breakthrough” appears: theatlantic.com/technology/arc…

The big idea: will fusion power save us from the climate crisis? theguardian.com/books/2023/apr…

Our epidemic preparedness team is hiring a senior person to lead our efforts to work with countries on their preparations to respond to the next outbreak. You'd have a large area of responsability and a lot of autonomy to lead important life-saving work: resolvetosavelives.bamboohr.com/careers/95

And the next Queens Jubilee Medal I was honoured to present with her Honour Antoinette Perry was to Peter Rukavina. His tireless work towards equity in housing, programs, services in general, etc... knows no limits and is very much appreciated.

Hey Canadians. Want to design with an excellent, supportive team... on wonderful projects? The team at @silverorangeinc is looking for 2 remote full-time designers to join the team. actsofvolition.com/2023/02/come-d…

Rare chance to join a startup that's solving a real world problem and that's founded by a designer. I'm a proud investor.

Weird vibe around here 😒. If you're looking for us, we'll be over at blog.silverorange.com where you can find a great post by Maureen Holland on her Git workflow.

With #ContinuityCamera coming to MacOS, I needed an iPhone mount for my LG 5k monitor. Came up with a nice and simple #lego solution for it! 😃 Works great so far, and holds the phone pretty securely.

@mRB0 @keithburgoyne LOLz 😂

150-day steak, baby. (I used allllll my gems to buy streak freezes during Fiona because my dang internet was out and the lessons wouldn't load.) invite.duolingo.com/BDHTZTB5CWWKTM…

@keithburgoyne Steak 🥩!!!? And you’re a vegetarian 🥕 🥬

@agoodbeerblog @dburka It's hosted by the government of Canada - we had a grant back in the day to build it, I think by the NRC. Now it looks like it's hosted by Libraries and Archives Canada.

@nickburka @dburka Those are some amazing images. Where does the server sit?

Wild! I just discovered that the first website I worked on is still online: a collection of WWI photos by Jack Turner, a soldier from the Canadian island I grew up on. The world wide web is a remarkable place. Check out that sweet Team page! epe.lac-bac.gc.ca/100/205/301/ic…

@dburka Wow - I guess they are supported. Does anyone use them anymore? developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web…

@dburka I can’t believe the image-map links still work on the homepage collage. If you click on the photos it takes you to their full versions. Browsers still support image maps?

@warrenwilansky That's great news Warren! 🎉🎉 Congrats to your whole team!
