A 45 minute (give or take) sketch / painting of eggs done on the bus yesterday. My seat-mate put down his phone to watch me paint.

The most recent page in my 100 Doodles newsletter project, where I take a walk in the park.
At work, I’m having my team read “JavaScript Allongé” as a learning / training exercise.
I read something this morning which made functional scope and the new keyword (applied to a constructor function) make sense in a whole new way.

It’s really appealing that I can use the visual editor in Squarespace to visually design a blog post (if I’m feeling fancy) but for common case of writing or posting a picture, it’s painful. Easier to write in ByWord and copy/paste.
Squarespace is losing some of its polish for me. It’s a great platform generally speaking. But the lack of an API or any 3 party integrations (like IFTTT or Blogging tools) is pretty frustrating. Their iOS clients are clunky and the web interface is only good for design.

This is a recent issue of my 100 Doodles project. An art newsletter published maybe twice a week with small paintings and writing. In this issue I take the train. Again.
