I really am obsessed with the little melody that the Instant Pot plays when you open and close it.

We’re approaching the look and feel of elementary OS with a lot of intentionality, focusing on setting the stage for the next several years. Get a peek of what we’ve been up to in this behind-the-scenes blog post. https://blog.elementary.io/look-and-feel-changes-elementary-os-6/

I’d even go so far as to say I enjoy saying these things b/c of what they mean for me:
“I don’t know.” -> I get to go try to find out!
“I was wrong.” -> I’ve improved myself or formed a more robust position! Yay!
“I just learned that.” -> I’m STILL learning! Also Yay!

Normalize saying "I don't know."
Normalize saying "I was wrong."
Normalize saying "I just learned that."
It's not that hard, folks.

"Streams – The definitive guide" by @tomayac https://web.dev/streams/
Great overview of the new streams APIs. I really feel like once these APIs land, we'll have a more sensible way of dealing with things like web sockets, XHRs, text decoding, etc. It seems like these APIs borrowed a lot from Node's neverending saga of streams APIs (and hopefully they benefit from some hard-earned lessons!).

They were charged with rocketeering.

"The web is something different" by @davatron5000 https://daverupert.com/2021/02/the-web-is-something-different/
"I’ve come to accept that if there are bugs on the web or if there’s a massive quality dip on a site you’re visiting… that is a sign the web is working. It means some unqualified person was able to skip past the gatekeepers and put something online."
Nice, nuanced perspective in this post. I appreciate it.
Also! Destructoid has a fascinating post on the real hero from Brazil's history that inspired the game.
