Notes

This is a post that will most certainly betray my age in that I fondly remember the release of Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.

Mozilla has recently had a lot of blowback about several recent changes they’ve made to Firefox. There was a reaction recently from a member of the Thunderbird team.

In an effort to speed up TypeScript compilation, Microsoft has decided to rewrite the compiler to be a native application.

It’s almost been 20 years since I started my first blog. But what exactly defines a blog?

I somewhat recently ran into this screenshot of a rant that Linus Torvalds went on about C++ and why he thinks C is the better programming language.

I recently ran into a blog post on another blog titled “No Data Lasts Forever.” It inspired me to think more about my own data preservation.

This is why the Windows 95 setup team didn’t just use the limited GUI options that were availble in MS-DOS for the setup application instead of three separate operating systems.

I am generally a huge fan of Apple’s interfaces, but this is one of their dumbest design decisions to date.

A little while ago, I stumbled upon a collection of photos taken from Microsoft’s office in Albuquerque, New Mexico in 1979.

Have you ever wondered why the Windows 95 setup seems to consist of three different types of UI? As it turns out, that is due to the fact that setup actually runs on three different operating systems.

I recently came across an article on Ars Technica that talks about how Google appears to be losing the fight against SEO spam. This is certainly a phenomenon I have noticed.

Microsoft’s new version of Outlook for Windows has seen its fair share of criticism, but one omission is just shocking in 2024.
