    Going to go through all the people I follow on Twitter and unfollow them here as I find them on 🦋 to use it like a checklist. If I unfollow you it's because I've found you over there. For those that haven't moved yet, you're missing out

    Tech salaries are not inflated, they are middle class. This is just the actual cost of living, but you’ve accepted/ignored that other careers have been pushed out of the middle class

    All my disrespect to these Tesla engineers. I’d love to see their last 30 days of code printed out so I could absolutely tear through it. Because any engineer who thinks they can make this call in this way, knows nothing of their craft and shame on them nytimes.com/2022/11/11/tec…

    This unintentionally perfectly captures why UI design is no longer a distinguishing factor in product choice, no longer a way to attract new users It’s become a rigid set of rules and good design is now judged solely on how well you follow these rules

    Performance tip: Make your website smaller by replacing every <div> tag with <i> tags You’ll just have to reset the italics with “body { transform: rotate(-15deg) }”

    I love when designers artificially restrict themselves into a corner in the name of “consistency” and make it so all their designs can only be terrible See: Every time a big company decides to redesign all their product logos

    Do yourself a favor and split your “User” type into: - “Identity” for authenticating - “Actor” for performing actions - “Role” for managing permissions So tired of services that clearly hacked on features to an all powerful user type
