Filip R. Zahariev Under Review:Groundless Noir: Ontology and Latin American Crime Fiction. Erik Larson. Bucknell University Press, May 2026. RNoir is defined by cynicism, insecurity, vulnerability, and what Vivian Gornick once described as âthe inability to feel the reality of your own life, or anyone elseâsâ. An...
You never forget and of course, how can anyone ever forget the times of their lives? And of course, I agree, the times of our life have changed and altered from their original state. But this is a normal thing. This is a thing that comes with age. Time moves and the glory days are more glorious and the memories...
Adam Wunn: FileMaker could be a simple database, with a friendly user interface, for someoneâs recipe collection and similar needs (I used it for my CD collection at the time). [Yet another recipe collection trope â they used to advertise that as a feature to the everyday buyer â so funny!] FileMaker could also...
D. Griffin Jones: Now, Liquid Glass includes a new effect that blurs the content beneath it very heavily, but makes that blur mostly transparent.

Itâs 2012. Iâm late for my 8am marketing class. Iâm running out the door of my tiny apartment, scrambling along the the sidewalk to campus. Iâm 10 minutes away. Can I grab a coffee before class? Surely I can make it. I pull out my shiny new iPhone 5. Pull up YouTube. The wired headphones slowly untangle as I saunter...
The problem with making an edge case of yourself (in any respect) is that it becomes painfully obvious when people lapse into framing specific "You" as a generalized "Them." People very often are not interacting with a specific you. You dissolve for them into a category. This is perfectly normal, and usually...
For the last few years, weâve been using Apple Music for streaming. Itâs great to have access to a gigantic catalog of songs, but it come with its downsides. Kevin Kelly is a big proponent of Access over Ownership. We tend to agree that access to transportation, access to healthcare, access to education and access...
