In Parliament today I proposed optional Joint filing of Income Tax Returns for married couples. Family A Both spouses earn ₹10 lakh each. Total household income is ₹20 lakh. Tax: zero Family B One spouse earns ₹20 lakh. The other stays home to raise their child. Total household income is ₹20 lakh. Tax: ₹1.92 lakh The only difference is how the salary is split between the two spouses. One roof. One kitchen. One household budget. But when tax time comes, the family disappears. The tax system sees two individuals. A husband and wife become strangers. No clubbing of income or rebates. In Parliament today I proposed optional joint filing of Income Tax Returns for married couples, so families with uneven incomes are not unfairly penalised. If implemented, then Family A and Family B both will pay Zero Tax.

Nowhere were the promises and hypocrisies of AI clearer than in India this week. @cathythorbecke explains from New Delhi 🎥

- 28 year old - witnessed many accident on NH 66 - Complaint ignored from past 5 years - took matters into his own hands - walked 490Km straight on the Highway - identified 59 broken patch on Highway - reports sent to Nitin Gadkari Life of common people in India 😭

I think the role of the Software Engineer is evolving into a Product Engineer. LLM tools have made writing code easier than ever. The real bottleneck isn't implementation anymore - it's deciding what to build and how the UX should work. That's why I've been spending more of my time learning design and product skills. The most impactful engineers will be the ones who can shape products, not just ship features.

@alloyapp is it possible to combined multiple snapshots (page captures) in one prototype?

@pwnies @disco_lu @figma All the plugins I have used Requires layers selection followed by some interaction on plugin panel. Is it not possible to point and click on Figma canvas/frame and perform anything with the help of plugins, similar to Figma native comment feature?

I hate yellow that is all

@snehasanks @hahahaharshita But that line height 🙈

perfect. just immaculate

@jamiegraydesign Combobox with tags

what do y'all call this input interface element?

@blvdmitry Can neutral-foreground be used in place of all "on background" except warning?

Most likely all the color tokens you need for your design system. In some cases - even less

@GabbbarSingh @amazonIN Happened with me few months back, delivered broken, old and different brand monitor. Took me more than a month to get refund.

Waah @amazonIN delivered a Fake iPhone 15. Seller is Appario. Tagged with “Amazon choice” No cable in the box. Total Dabba. Has anyone faced similar issue?

@oliver_artwork @disco_lu @blvdmitry @AdhamDannaway @NateBaldwinArt Thanks for pointing this out, I can clearly see a big problem with using numbers (500, 600)

@AmanRathi @disco_lu @blvdmitry @AdhamDannaway @NateBaldwinArt There's a few reasons you might want to consider another route. This naming suggests you would always need your brand range to tie in with the primitive range. So bg.brand.500 would need to match with blue.500 or whatever your brand colour is...

👋 @disco_lu @blvdmitry @AdhamDannaway @NateBaldwinArt For semantic tokens do you see any benefit of one approach over other 1: bg-brand-default bg-brand-weak bg-brand-strong 2: bg-brand-600 bg-brand-400 bg-brand-700 Assuming there can be many (~6 or 7) BG colors for one hue

Finally mustering the courage to write this: My 4 month old Iphone 13 got pickpocketed from Varanasi Nai Sarak Chowk (near Kashi Vishwanath & Dashashwamedh Ghat) I have it on CCTV, I have the location of it, we filed an FIR, but UP Police is unable to help me (A thread🧵)

I thought of creating a token under text folder directly but then it will look like this to my consumers

👋 @disco_lu @figma For my default token I do not want to use word "default", I just want to call it "text-neutral" is there a way around for this in Figma tokens?

So often, design system documentation provides "no shit" definitions and descriptions for components. "A text field is an input field that users can type into." No shit?!

I had sent many direct messages to @BajajAllianz because I try not to put things in the public domain. But we have been constantly harassed; through sms-es, whatsapp messages, emails and particularly through bot driven calls. I asked, as politely as I could, if this bombardment could stop. I was promised it would but it hasn't . So, @BajajAllianz we have told our insurance agent, an old family connection, that we will use any health insurance except #BajajAllianz. I wish I didn't have to put it in the public domain but many DMs have failed to get them to understand. I wish you well but I will never have anything to do with you again.

@ersadwork @alignui For charts do you pick colors with minimum 3:1 contrast ratio against white?

@zeroheight Folks what can I do about this issue, ZH is always like this, takes me 2 hours to do a 5 mins job.
