    <description>What's in the lab right now, from a 1987 game reborn to a new series of essays.</description>
    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A quick look at what's in the lab right now:</p>
<ul><li><strong><a href="https://pragmaphilia.com/notable-releases/kansai-ben-of-the-day/">Kansai-ben of the Day</a>:</strong> one Osaka and Kansai phrase a day, from the polite to the downright rude, in beta testing.</li><li><strong><a href="https://pragmaphilia.com/notable-releases/space-flees-2100/">Space Flees 2100</a>:</strong> the remake of John's 1987 DOS game, in beta testing.</li><li><strong><a href="https://pragmaphilia.com/lab-notes/">Lab Notes</a>:</strong> a new numbered series of essays; No. 2 is out.</li><li><strong>The Slack division:</strong> things we made while slacking, for others to use while slacking. The first idea on the bench is a generator of funky nonsense words (see <a href="https://pragmaphilia.com/coffee-break/word-salad-surgery/">Word Salad Surgery</a>).</li></ul>
<p>More as it comes out of the oven.</p>]]></content:encoded>
