1 month ago | blog.persistent.info | Andy Baio

tl;dr: Infinite Mac can now run early Mac OS X, with 10.1 and 10.3 being the best supported versions.

Loading... putting that space to good useThat’s 240 browser tabs in a tight 8x30 grid. And they’re running pong! The ball and paddles are able to cleanly move between the canvas in the foregrounded window and all of the tabs above. You can see the (awful) code here. But how does this work?

Note: This post gets into the last few weeks of American politics. If that’s not your cup of tea, or if that’s a stressful topic for you, please feel free to skip this one. (Also, it’s a bit long. Sorry about that.)Last week, I finished my tenure as a designer at 18F. I want to state up front: I’m not leaving under a “deferred resignation”. I also wasn’t laid off.
