Firefoxの新しいマスコットキャラクター「キットちゃん」がMozillaのガイドラインに登場。今更ですが「キツネでもレッサーパンダでもない、Firefox独自の生き物です」とのこと。これは、ただただかわいすぎるやつ.......。 Mascot - Visual Elements - Firefox Brand brand.mozilla.com/d/5UkPdpbtt8LS…

If you superimpose DUNE Part Three Instagram and YT trailer, you get an IMAX 1.43:1 frame 😍

@1000kilobytes Why the hell Apple is relying on PDF format for their vector formats. Instead of inventing their own, or using the standard SVG? Is there any performance considerations behind the logic, or are they just stuck with this format?

Thanks to Apple's Liquid Glass, a lot of the system app icons on iOS are PDF based, making them also SVG based, and that means you can actually mess with the layers of the icons themselves and its so fun

I was today’s years old when I got to know that Apple is using PDF as a format for displaying icons. Did you know?

@MarkFonts Thanks, Mark. Whoever buys will be the first. It's early days; no sales so far.

Type design is polishing a 500 KB turd for a year or two, then it's parked on a server farm somewhere. Rinse and repeat.

@guillaumebth id suggest reconsider the "missing vowel" name trope, its very 2010s app boom and feels like satire of a needless product. for anything but a design assistance tool it would be no big deal but taste is important here.

Coming from an engineering background - this is actually math proving itself here 😁 The two circles have less blue area than a full pill because you lose that connecting section when you split them. So 100 vs 100 is already uneven in actual mass. Dropping the pill to 92 brings it closer to the real area of the two circles. The visual balance and the math are saying the same thing here. Fun visual experiment 👍

@MarkFonts Hey, Mark. It was a semi-sarcastic take with a sprinkling of truth. I'm just tired, man. We're all just tired.

The aesthetic fingerprint of vibe-coded UIs is becoming its own genre — all glass morphism, floating pills, and these accordion tabs you're describing. Interesting that AI tends toward these patterns by default, probably because they're overrepresented in its training data from design showcases.

This feels like gibberish: The Processing Pipeline When you drop in a scan, FontCrafter runs a multi-stage image processing pipeline: adaptive thresholding to isolate ink from paper, connected-component blob detection to find individual characters, Suzuki-Abe contour tracing to extract outlines, Ramer-Douglas-Peucker (RDP) simplification to reduce point count, Chaikin corner-cutting for smooth curves, and cubic Bézier fitting to produce clean vector paths. The entire pipeline is tuned for handwriting — pen pressure variation, stroke overlap, and ink bleed are all accounted for.

It's extremely buggy and broken right now, but I actually got QuiverAI somewhat working for tracing background images in Runebender Xilem. If I can get this working, you just need a QuiverAI API key in ~/.config/runebender and hit Cmd+Shift+Y to trace a background image.
