To my eye, it is like the patina that your favorite tools get.

I’m looking at you, 40 year old tape measure.

If I use the 3-prong, which is usually tied to a long cable, I don’t feel the buzz.

I assumed that the additional grounding helped.

So they’re the same thing but from two frames of reference?

I’m not sure this metaphor holds.

Recently I've had mulitple problems where drafts disappear, sometimes even after I send them. My partner's seen this as well on a completely unrelated workspace enterprise account.

On top of that,I've noticed that my "Drafts" are conspicuously missing entries since mid-November. I've got a pretty good rate of leaving drafts and ideas half formed in email.

(I'm not looking for advice, guidance, or berating for this behavior – I've already gotten an earful from my team.)

Has anyone else seen this? Perhaps take a look in drafts and see what's missing!

They get a little diffused and look really cool.

For bonus points, get pics of your kids' faces lit by only that light.

Boom: next year's card.
