This morning, my wife ate the plums I was saving in the ice box that I was planning to serve for breakfast.

She told me they were cold and delicious.

Proximity Principle in Visual Design The principle of proximity states that we perceive objects which are close to one another as a group. This is true even if the color, size…

Rudimentary drawings in a notebook, laid out in a grid with washi tape that has vintage style ray guns on it. Title: Technologies I was excited about. Panel 1: text: Listening to music without my speaker spying on me. Drawing: an iPod and a Discman Panel 2: text: sharing pictures with my friends just for fun. Drawing: the old Flickr interface with a picture of a cat titled “caturdays with Clem” Panel 3: accurate and trustworthy internet search. Drawing: the old Google logo except it says “Goodle.” Beneath it says “don’t be evil.” The buttons say “search” and “get lucky.” Panel 4: reliable weather forecasts in my pocket. Drawing: the old Dark Sky app, which was killed by Apple.

My contribution to the “technologies the left is excited about” discourse.
