For me, one of the gaming themes of 2020 was: stream, don’t own. Being surprised by Google Stadia’s performance and then subsequently seeing the evolutions in PS Now’s offering I was happy to try out a bunch of games, then stick to the ones I liked, streaming them to get to play quickly – instead […]

Het kabinet van Minister van Werk Dermagne (PS) beslist dat iedereen die meer dan 52 dagen technisch werkloos is geweest tussen maart en eind november geweest per dag een extra bedrag krijgt. Dit kost de belastingsbetaler 180 miljoen. (De Tijd, 11 december) Dit zijn dus voor alle duidelijkheid mensen die in een bedrijf zijn blijven […]

Bestaat dat nog, designhelden? Ik heb mijn boek van Sagmeister nog eens vastgepakt dit weekend. Ik was al in het begin van een creatieve fase, en dan zijn de adviesjes die hier in staan wonderlijk inspirerend. Lees even mee: IF I WANT TO EXPLORE A NEW DIRECTION PROFESSIONALLY, IT IS HELPFUL TO TRY IT OUT […]
