Pusheen the cat making some chemistry.

That cat is not wearing safety goggles, he hasn’t even bothered to clean up that spilled solvent, and he is holding that Erlenmeyer flask way too close to his face.

Pusheen the Cat, more like Pusheen the limits of lab safety

My cat brought us a present today. I have never seen a rabbit SO angry.

****He was set free 10 minutes after being caught, photographed, and driven to a nearby field :)

If this single screencap doesn’t describe everything I’ve seen of Ben Wyatt, I don’t know what does.

Slack for couples. Slack for hobbies. Slack for dating. Who needs Gchat, anyway?

Sarah Kessler on the rise of Slack in the home:

Every day, 750,000 workers log into enterprise chat software Slack to communicate with colleagues. Todd Kennedy, a 37-year-old CTO at a software startup, also uses the service—to talk with his wife, Julie.

The couple created a fake company name, “TheKennedys,” to sign up for the two-member Slack chat that has replaced iMessage for them as the way they discuss everything, from coordinating childcare to potential Ikea purchases. “Fifty percent of my Slack communication is work, and 50% of my slack communication is nonwork at this point,” says Todd, who also uses Slack to keep in touch with a group of Brooklyn-based programmers. “It’s on my phone. It’s on my iPad. It’s on my computer. And it’s always open.”

This is a very odd way for someone to talk about enterprise software. Occasionally a consumer-facing product like Dropbox expands into the workplace, but rarely do people bring tools designed for their companies into their personal lives. But now it seems Slack is becoming an exception. Users have appropriated the platform for extracurricular use cases like staying in touch with groups of friends, backchanneling at events, and creating chat rooms around interests like books or entrepreneurship—or dating. In addition to being a place to work, Slack is becoming a virtual hangout spot.

While not the intent or focus of the product, it speaks to how well done it is that it can naturally cross this chasm. I know it has in my household as well. Megan and I just it for all sorts of things.
