A year-long search for a lost video game pioneer comes to a happy conclusion today. It is our honor and privilege to introduce you to Van Mai, the innovator who brought female representation to home video games 40 years ago. gamehistory.org/wabbit/

2 narratives in higher education are emerging for a post-pandemic world. 1st insists we will go back to normal. The argument rests on risk reduction and believes discomforts are caused by COVID. The 2nd (rarer) insists we must change & that risk reduction requires innovation 1/6

Javascript and Swift apparently disagree about when January 1, 1 AD was. (Both numbers in milliseconds-since-1970) JS: -62135596800000 Swift: -62135769600000 These two numbers are exactly 48 hours apart. Can anyone explain what’s going on here?

Today we reflect on the one year anniversary of the WHO declaring the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic. We are thankful for how @AcadiaU & NS have fared through the crisis but we mourn for those who have died or lost loved ones, & those who have been badly impacted by the virus. – at Wolfville, Nova Scotia
