The power of programming. What most schools don’t teach. I’m experiencing this every night as we build product with skills we didn’t have the night before. It’s intoxicating.
I’m an advocate for anyone learning to code, whether it be simple HTML and CSS or more complex languages like Python or Ruby so this video totally excites me. It’s also interesting to learn that former Toronto Raptor Chris Bosh went to school for computer science! ~the more you know~
Code.org has a lot of helpful resources for those just starting out, but for those in Toronto, I highly recommend taking a class at Ladies Learning Code. I took a Beginner’s Python class with them last summer and though I’m not changing the world (yet), getting to hang out with the local coding community was a great experience.
The more programmers the merrier!

Model-Morphosis
NYFW is almost over but I thought this was quite awesome: Photographer Greg Kessler captured the ‘before-and-after’s of NYFW runway models for T Magazine’s Model-Morphosis as they got their makeup done before each show.
I like how T Magazine formatted his photos so that, as you move the orange slider back and forth, you can witness the magical transformation in front of your very eyes! Go see for yourself~
That’s some nice jQuery effects you see right there. This tickles both my nerdy and fashion-lovin’ self juuust right.
I imagine that this was likely a pain in the butt to do, as the photog had to essentially take two photos of the models in almost the exact same position.
SO COOL THO
