Ziglings. Learn Zig by fixing small bugs in small programs. (Inspired by rustlings, though those exercises seem to be broader than just fixing errors.) A good way to learn a programming language, I think.

Maggie Appleton on bi-directional links. Doing this locally is one of the (many) changes I want to make down the road when I rebuild this site’s backend.

Vasilis van Gemert on where web page navigation should be. I’m convinced: nav at the bottom of the source file, and on mobile at the bottom visually as well. Planning to make the change here soon.

Blender 2.92 dropped recently. Geometry nodes look promising, and it’s crazy to see how all the grease pencil work has turned Blender into a viable 2D animation studio as well.

PEP 636. Pattern matching! In Python! Very much looking forward to this — I’ve loved using it in Rust.

• The Handmade Network manifesto — I like this a lot (and would love to do more of this kind of coding)
• The Future of Coding weekly newsletter — fascinating posts and conversations, really digging this
• Ivan Reese’s Hest project — visual programming of sorts but with fascinating space/time travel aspects
• Logseq — an intriguing notebook system ala Roam (in the vein of digital gardens)
• Zig — still need more time to go through the overview here in depth, but I like what I’ve seen so far
