I wish there was an option in iOS to see folders of apps in a two by two grid as an initial default over the three by three grid. It would be easier to see apps on the screen, and would let people make more focused app folders.
Watching the Paisley GC juniors playing in the Scottish Junior Team Championship at Kilmarnock Barassie today.
They have excellent course conditions today, but playing off the longer white tees has been challenging.
Yip, e-sport stadiums are now a thing
Philadelphia Fusion, the city’s Overwatch League team, are having an e-sports complex built that will become the team’s home ground. Effectively, their home stadium.
But an arguably even more important milestone happened earlier in the week — and it took place across the street. On Wednesday, the Philadelphia Fusion — the city’s OWL team — held a groundbreaking ceremony for Fusion Arena, a $50 million e-sports complex that will eventually become the team’s home ground.

Who would have thought e-sports would reach the heights where team’s are having statiums built?
Not a fan of the new programming font from Microsoft. It’s really wide. Wider than anything I’ve ever used. I’ll stick with Iosevka.
The vacuum of leadership
It’s not very often that I link to Twitter, but this tweet about teen leaders and how they’re making themselves heard is spot on.
Apparently I need to state the obvious: teen leaders have emerged because of a total vacuum of courage or actual leadership amongst “adults” in power. It’s not because they’re good at social media 🙄
Finally! A release date for the The Last of Us Part 2. I guess that’s my birthday sorted then!

The greatest unsigned quarterback in the NFL?
Another NFL season, another time to wonder why teams aren’t signing up Colin Kaepernick to replace their injured star quarterbacks. Well, we know why teams aren’t signing up Kaepernick. His protest’s against racism and police violence are well known.
With each star quarterback that falls by the wayside, one question looms ever larger: Will Colin Kaepernick, after over two years in exile, finally be signed by an NFL team? Kaepernick, still only 31 years old, is, according to people I’ve spoken with who know him well, “in the best shape of his life,” waking up at 5 am for daily workouts. His agent has reportedly reached out to several of these teams in need of quarterbacks to see about getting a tryout. By signing Kaepernick, the NFL could close the book on a true instance of “cancel culture,” of denying Kaepernick his livelihood, because he dared stand up to racist police violence.
— NFL Teams Are Desperate for Quarterbacks—but Colin Kaepernick Remains Unsigned
What can be done then?
Very little in fact. The NFL has the chance to make a difference here, but the league remains very aligned to ensuring that they make a profit and not a difference. It looks like Kaepernick will remain the greatest quarterback to be unsigned and ignored by the NFL.
