2021i22: Floating cats.
It's Friday. It's been a long week. So seriousness can go hang.

2021i21, Thursday: shinjirarenai hodo oishii.
Translation: delicious beyond belief. My favourite Japanese delivery place has gone national. And a smart and luminous way of adding randomness.
Newsletter
2021i18, Monday: Eight legs. Nine brains. All good.
Again, a quick hit because I'm in court later this morning. But this one's for lovers of octopuses everywhere.
Newsletter
2021i15, Friday: Thank God it wasn't me.
In court for a 10 day hearing at the moment. So again I'll be brief. A wrenching judgment, and a lovely bit of writing about a friendly neighbourhood hero.

2021i12, Tuesday: Portrait, for preference.
Why do most iPad cases only do landscape? And bookshelves to die for.
Newsletter
2021i11, Monday: reluctance? Or refusal?

Newsletter
2021i5, Tuesday: Lifting the shell.
Again, it's a busy week. So two quick hits: a potential AML game-changer, and catnip for Apple geeks.
Newsletter
2021i4, Monday: Does "any" really mean "any"?
These notes may be brief this week. I'm in a hearing Monday to Thursday, and daughter's (initially remote) school is restarting tomorrow. So I'll focus on SIROTI, with other things when I can.
