Pill pockets are a miracle of modern science.

I’m increasingly impressed at Facebook’s initial move of defining GraphQL as a spec and not a technology. It has enabled lots of experimentation and possibilities for scaling. It was production-viable way quicker than it would have been otherwise.

I really wish the good calendar apps for iOS supported Google Calendar room booking.

Also helps that I’ve basically stopped buying furniture from anyone other than IKEA. With a destructive kid and cat, the cost benefit for anything else doesn’t seem worth it.

The IKEA VR app is mind blowing. First example of generally useful VR I’ve seen.
