John Gruber wrote a long article on the current state of Apple's software, graphical and user interface design. The most salient part, quoted from somewhere else:
If you put the Apple icons in reverse it looks like the portfolio of someone getting really really good at icon design.
Sick burn.
I saw some of this already happening with the iWork suite back in 2013...

A few months ago I discovered the game "Blood on the Clocktower". That's a "social deduction" game you play with between 5 and 20 people. The way it works has things in common with games like Werewolf and Mafia: there is a small and secret evil team that normally knows each other, and a bigger good team that tries to hunt down the evil team, especially its leader the "demon". When the good guys kill the demon, they win. If the demon survives until there are only two players left, the evil team wins.
It's a really fun game to play in person, and a lot of people also play it online. Another way to enjoy the game is to watch videos on Youtube (or Twitch I guess) and see other people play. That's what this blog post is about.
