Squirrel and Moose

Kyle and Dylan talk about their hopes and fears -- OK, nothing but fears -- about the upcoming shopping season. Also: All Dylan wants for Christmas is wool socks; Kyle admits he's not an early adopter of online shopping; still more about responsive images; a brief digression on Erlang; the acceptable evil of the multi-browser, multi-device world; and the death of Winamp.

Dylan and Kyle actually talk about the web -- the problems of AngluarJS's code base, the responsive images kerfuffle. Also, the pain of weight loss, the price of coolness, pale Crossfit brogrammers, gamma radiation, the problems of design and technical debt, and the rise of Mat Marquis.

Kyle and Dylan discuss Dylan's hatred of Halloween, then end up talking about young adult literature and screen size as a poor indicator of device type in responsive design. Also: Websites compared to Jennifer Lawrence, Kyle hates on Southern candy, swearing, and sexism.

Dylan and Kyle discuss Dylan's 23AndMe results with the aplomb of two guys who don't get genetics. Plus: Dylan's Neanderthal roots, Kyle's Exoplanet Of The Week, why Neil Degrasse Tyson will never be cool like Carl Sagan, the rise of tech conference events that do not revolve around alcohol, why designers are more than just consultants, the UX's world's overrating of good speakers, and the Henry Limit.

Kyle and Dylan talk about the strangely related nerddoms of exoplanets and flu vaccines. Plus: Is the flu vaccine really a saving throw; Bill Watterson's mysterious new interview; dinosaur erotica; geoducks; Homestar Runner; and Sherlock. It's just nothing but nerdery.

Dylan and Kyle talk about the missing Squoose episode a crashed computer ate. Also, why Dylan hates GarageBand, Larry Ellison as the missing piece for your evil organization, still more getting DRM in your HTML, another requiem for horse_ebooks, That Thing That We Will Not Talk About, the silliness of IE11's agent string, and what is that incessant clicking?

Dylan and Kyle deliver a full hour of inane ramblings, including: The closure of .Net magazine's electronic archives, iOS7 and the one UX issue that really, really drives Dylan nuts, and whether APIs continually updating is like the Library of Alexandria burning. Those topics, and Andy Rooney

Kyle and Dylan talk about Pax Dickinson and the crazy brogrammer world he lives in. Also: Five day party week, iPhones in colors, Scott Berkun pitches his no pants book while wearing pants, and probably a bad word or two.

Dylan and Kyle discuss the new Yahoo logo and Nishant Kothary's piece on The Merry Stormtrooper. Also: We make our pitch to Taiwan to sponsor us (and probably get banned by China), a fantasy league update about Giants, whether Microsoft can even win anymore, Kyle does too much overtime, and Dylan discusses losing weight one little goal at a time.

Kyle and Dylan discuss how fantasy football really is like D&D for jocks. Also: an actual Squirrelfest, the time Scoble cut in front of Dylan in line, the downfall of the FirefoxOS phone, the glories of Pok Pok, and our feelings about cancer are made known in a very explicit way.

Dylan and guest host Elaine Nelson talk about dogfooding the websites we build and how you know when a design is right. Also: Why you can't delete a podcast on 3rd Ave Radio, books to improve your writing, and the pretentious The in The Evergreen State College. Apologies for the bad sound.

Dylan and Kyle talk yet again about sexism, this time the recent spate of sexual violence threats on Twitter and the running question of whether anonymity is more harmful than good. Also: Squoose for Dogs, why summer colds are so horrible, lots of references to backpacks and pressure cookers, the return of Kathy Sierra, and perhaps the ultimate solution to the sexual threat plague.

Kyle and Dylan return with a long, Hobson-Threshold-blowing talk about AngularJS, the proliferation of web frameworks, and whether our love of them has gone too far. Also: MVP or MVC -- does anyone really know the difference? Is Atlanta the worst city in America to drive in? Can a developer get a job without polluting the world with yet another gimmicky library? Are we biased towards red-haired developers? And is Toronto a boring city, or the most boring city in the world?

Dylan and special guest Stephanie Hobson talk about the perils of CSS for programmers, international travel, and vacations. Also, Canadian stereotypes, American border crossings, and the surprising openness of the British.

Dylan and special guest Justin McDowell talk about the downfall of the home page carousel -- and why that's a very, very good thing. Also: The perils of a website redesign, Justin is clairvoyant, Dylan rambles on, yet another Ling's Cars reference, and ice cream trucks that play calliope grunge.
