For years I've been doing this manually for each logo project. Start with an Illustrator file with all my favourite fonts ready to be replaced with the brand name. Or taking a screenshot of the logomark and scrolling through google fonts with the screenshot placed next to the type... Now, @joshpuckett has saved me, and every other designer, hours on each project by creating a tool called Locale. Insane work

As someone who worked at Reality Labs: the Metaverse had real legs but was obliterated by middle management completely out of touch with how young people actually use technology. I built a V1 tool that game developers genuinely needed, and the moment it was done, it got shipped to a team in London (to die), and I was reassigned to a "higher-priority project" that zero developers asked for. Multiply that by every team, and you'll understand why this never took off yet cost 80 billion.

JUST IN: Meta announces they'll be shutting down the Metaverse, after pouring $80,000,000,000.00 into the project.

@usgraphics I like how they said the top right was pink and then it got a pass from the design team to use those two colors everywhere

Interactive research published by Anthropic is truly outstanding. There is this resounding Tuft x Bostock aesthetic that appears everywhere and there is a high degree of density + consistency across the board. Only a product of people caring.

We invited Claude users to share how they use AI, what they dream it could make possible, and what they fear it might do. Nearly 81,000 people responded in one week—the largest qualitative study of its kind. Read more: anthropic.com/features/81k-i…

You ever notice how selecting an item from the macOS right-click menu delays its exit? Yeah, turns out our brains sometimes need that additional 200-400ms moment of pause to register what just happened on screen. Here's another good example I was just working on:

Cool use case of AlphaFold, this is just the beginning of digital biology!
vittorio@IterIntellectus

this is actually insane > be tech guy in australia > adopt cancer riddled rescue dog, months to live > not_going_to_give_you_up.mp4 > pay $3,000 to sequence her tumor DNA > feed it to ChatGPT and AlphaFold > zero background in biology > identify mutated proteins, match them to drug targets > design a custom mRNA cancer vaccine from scratch > genomics professor is “gobsmacked” that some puppy lover did this on his own > need ethics approval to administer it > red tape takes longer than designing the vaccine > 3 months, finally approved > drive 10 hours to get rosie her first injection > tumor halves > coat gets glossy again > dog is alive and happy > professor: “if we can do this for a dog, why aren’t we rolling this out to humans?” one man with a chatbot, and $3,000 just outperformed the entire pharmaceutical discovery pipeline. we are going to cure so many diseases. I dont think people realize how good things are going to get

I found that instead of having different paddings depending on having an icon or not (which is annoying to set up) if you put some padding on the actual text inside the button, you get the same result. If your button has an icon on the left, then the padding is just 12px. But when the padding is compounded with the padding of the text, you get 16px. This way you don't have to juggle conditional paddings, and this just works

This is why. Cheap crap plastic value laptops with good specs recommended by people that have never used them are the worst. The hinges break, parts fall off, repairability is impossible. They are awful. These are my laptops from 2008, 2013, and 2018.

I have to make a video later showing off three of my great value laptops. I had in high school and elementary school. Great specs with plastic cheap frame. You’ll see why I can never recommend them

contrast-color() is landing in Chrome 147, making it Baseline Newly Available in all modern browsers. This feature takes any color value and returns either black or white—whichever provides the highest contrast against the input color. i.e. color: contrast-color(purple) returns white ⬇️

Sam Altman is very silly and whimsical. In a recent interview he proposed the idea of AI usage being metered, similar to electricity usage or water usage.

When you "hit a wall" in something you are trying to learn, it's typically just a massive debt of unlearned prerequisites that are finally being called due.
