It can't be emphasized enough that @FreyaHolmer@twitter.com is an utterly world class designer-educator, and her beautifully animated new explainer, "The Continuity of Splines"—after more than a year's work—sets a new standard for visual math education. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvPPXbo87ds

Off to Manchester today for a kind of joint NO2ID / ORG Christmas social. Feel free to come and say hello in the Peer Hat from 1.30pm onwards #privacy #manchester

A moment of silence for all the single board computers, with more power than a CRAY who are spending this holiday season blinking Christmas lights, or monitoring a door bell button for the chance to play a festive mp3.

Listen, little ones, we know you can do more, this too shall pass.

@todbot @mingusdude @Raspberry_Pi the thing is, it’s so easy to fix. “Hi folks! We didn’t do a great job introducing X today. We understand that members of our community have legitimate concerns about surveillance tech and policing, and we’re sorry that we dismissed them. Still, X is a talented guy with tons of experience in the Raspberry Pi ecosystem. We’re stoked for the great stuff he’s going to build here, and we hope that y’all give him (and us!) a second chance.” There. With room to spare.

This is a terrific blogpost about #Brexit by @davidallengreen. It discusses three bills currently before parliament that each shows different flaws in #Brexit. "Each in their way, and when taken together, also telling us all we need to know about Brexit: that the exit was rushed and botched, that the exit has provided no practical benefits, and that that the exit will never be enough for many of those who supported it."
