đ What I Read
Wittgensteinâs Revenge
This post from Mike Ellis made me think: âTo establish a Fact, someone must decide what context is relevant to include, and what to exclude. The trouble is, there is no objective way to decide what context to omit. Context omission is inevitably subjective.â
Life Capital
Interesting ideas here from Erik Torenberg around ISAs and investing in people. Iâve heard this kicked around before, but this is a really thorough dive into what could be an important space in the future.
How to Make Dope Shit: Storytelling
Iâm a big fan of the data visualization and storytelling over at The Pudding. This is a cool look into how they create entertaining and informative data-driven essays.
The UX of Lego Interface Panels
âThese iconic, low-resolution designs are the perfect tool to learn the basics of physical interface design. Armed with 52 different bricks, letâs see what they can teach us about the design.â Enjoy.
đ„ What I Found Interesting
Relativty: An Open Source VR Headset
If youâre into VR, have plenty of spare time, and 200 bucks to throw, this might be worth checking out. Excited to see these things become more and more accessible.
Stock Market Art
Designer Gladys Orteza transforms stock market charts into beautiful landscapes. Who wouldâve thought stocks could look this good?
Sproute
Iâm a big fan of the idea here. Imagine if you could select a âpersonaâ for your algorithm based on your needs.
