Back in the spring, I got to travel around Italy for a bit. This is what it looked like. thetzar.exposure.co/tuscany-cinque…

Every generation tells the previous one, “You idiots, that was never going to work.”

AI-driven conversational spam bots on Reddit posts to farm karma. AI-driven reposting bots to farm karma. AI-driven marketing bots to spend karma on spam. Are there any people left out there?

Rumor has it that Meta/Facebook is working to create a Twitter competitor. So if working with These Assholes disturbs you, you can work with Those Assholes instead.

Aricebo, where ya goin’?

How angry could I make people by calling the island of Ireland “Lesser Britain?”

The internet is dying, and with it, old websites and cool projects. And now Adobe Illustrator has no way of doing flat oblique projections. Does anyone geeky enough have a copy of opo-ai19.dmg?

Having construction work done on your house is like having roommates again. There’s always someone in your space. They make a lot of noise, and randomly move your furniture around. There are rooms in your house you can’t go into. And every now and then they ask you for a check.

How did I get here? I just wanted to make WinAMP skins.

Would I be wrong to assume that Apple does not currently have a software design philosophy? They went full "whatever works at the moment" and no one important seems to care.

This is web design 101. I appreciate the reinforcement that my job is, in fact, important.

I'm tickled that billions of dollars of value are being lost in days at @twitter in what is, essentially, UX problems. The tech works. And while you could call them product decisions, what's happening is a business guy isn't understanding the user impacts of icon understanding.

@dastillman No means no, Daniel.

"No" doesn't have to end the conversation. It can be the beginning of a fresh one.

Be kind. Everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle. Against you.

People used to call TV “the idiot box.” They had no idea what kind of boxes the future held.

Do kids today understand that mini-maps in the corner of the screen of video games pre-date mini-maps in the corner of your vision in cars/walking/real life?

Kids today won’t believe this, but the internet used to be where we’d go to get away from the idiots.

There’s an old saying about leaving money on the table. “Don’t.”

The internet is made of mistakes.

@WhereandBack Saag paneer is a salad, and I will die on that hill.

I know you're supposed to give your kids healthy food like leafy greens, but I wanted Indian last night so I'm going to count spinach naan.
