Roblox Return to Service 10/28-10/31 2021: Roblox posted a long, detailed postmortem of their multi-day outage back in October. I could quibble with the timing (some info earlier is better than waiting until all of this was clear), this is a great explanation of the underlying issue and the factors that exacerbated the outage into a multi-day issue. Having been in a few all-night-outage situations myself, the clarity this transparency brings is worth it.
Lego’s Vintage Typewriter: Lego released a vintage typewriter that has working keys and can load paper (it doesn’t actually type, though). Includes a fabric piece, which is apparently a first for Lego. (via @assaf)
CBS’ RomoVision Technology, in Collaboration With Next Gen Stats and Second Spectrum, Is the Future of TV Sports—Starting Right Now: While I prefer ESPN’s rendering of this data (which was built by one of my former teams - I may be biased), this is an interesting and simple way to use this data. Needs some better storytelling tooling, but I like it. Also, weird sharing sports stuff here and not into Slack… :) Speaking of which…
Some personal news: I’m taking a little mini-sabbatical and have left Disney. Details at the link. Hit me up if you want to build anything fun while I’m on my break.
