Don’t doom scroll. Be informed with one daily dose.

https://sharethetruths.org is a daily update on the war in Ukraïna with verified information prepared by NGO representatives.

Do you know of a good JavaScript library for turning an array of arrays into nicely formatted fixed width table of columns and rows?

Bonus points for being able to specify max width and alignment within columns.

“Finch” was an even more boring version of “Cast Away”. I appreciate San Francisco was a land of salvation.

Watching “Finch” on Apple TV+ and I flinch every time an imperial unit is mentioned in this distant future dystopia.
