  • covering my disdain for dark patterns in the next open working article, going out later piccalil.li/projects/cou...

    A dark pattern is probably best thought of as a tactic to manipulate an individual — psychologically —  to con them to do what you want them to do on your page, rather than what they likely initially set out to do.

  • We've launched a new page that outlines what we're trying to do with open working projects and importantly, why we're doing it.

    This isn't the internet we want and we're going to do everything to make sure we're making things better, not chasing profit over anything.

  • Catching up on RSS and this makes me sad https://newsletters.feedbinusercontent.com/8dd/8dd3ee0c2fc1e54ba36991a1aac7a1c1b1be5a15.html.

    @codrops.bsky.social have been leading the charge with the collective for years so they deserve rest more than anyone.

  • I think you could sum up the recent media coverage of bluesky with “our boss’ revenue might be at risk if people actually care about stuff and articulate that at a large scale”

    A bit like the backlash to working from home.

    If you've got a couple of minutes spare, we'd really appreciate your thoughts.

  • framework twitter

    A logo that has the caption "Science based bodybuilding just dropped their new branding" 

It's an overhead view of 5 illustrated dudes (simple). Each of them is holding some sort of rod (?!) and that rod is the person on the left's. 

Basically, it looks like they're all tugging each other off.

  • The last two "big" announcements from Silicon Valley:

    1. Figma sites: inaccessible mess
    2. Apple Liquid Glass: inaccessible mess

    I can't actually remember the last time Silicon Valley came up with something that was actually good.
