Alright, Zuck. 😂

Here’s what's included:

… e.g. your content (including audio), messages, metadata, location, device characteristics and device software, apps, “what you're doing on your device, such as whether our app is in the foreground”, identifiers that tell your device apart from other users’, device signals, information about the network that you connect your device to, including your IP address, and, of course, “information from cookies and similar technologies” – and so much more.

Sounds totally legitimate to me. 😂

Yes, yes, yes, yes, @jasonsantamaria! 👏

“For now, I’m planning on continuing to roll up my sleeves. I want to make things because I’m human and alive. I want to go on journeys and grow. I’m not always looking for an easy path, I want the friction. Because if I give up the journey, what am I really making? What do I actually learn?”

Just bought a lifetime license for Atmos because it is just sooo good for creating perceptually uniform color palettes – including a shade generator, a contrast checker, OKLCH support, CSS export, a Figma plugin, online sharing, and, and… 😍 👉 https://atmos.style

Every bit of The Cure’s album “Songs of a Lost World” is brilliant, but especially Endsong is a masterpiece:

Quick #CSS tip: If you unset all styles of a button with `all: unset`, don’t forget to re-add all the styles you need, like `box-sizing: border-box` or focus styles, which previously might have been coming from a rule with lower specificity (*) or the user agent stylesheet.

Someone – I blame my family, of course 😜 – used up all my mobile data for the month, so I’m now surfing like it’s 1999… 🐌 brb

Great that all “websites” are now basically 10 MB of JavaScript! 👏😂

Aesop Rock dropped ☺️

I‘m afraid I won’t be able to make it to this year’s #CSSDay. 😔 And, looking at the stellar lineup and all the lovely people who will be there, FOMO is already huge! 🥲

Watching the talks remotely might help a bit, but just can’t replace the onsite experience …

Damn. 🕺🪩

What are you using to manage the #design #tokens in your projects or organization?
Style Dictionary? Diez? Your own solution?

Doing a quick UX/UI audit of a website for a client. And what can I say…… 🤔

Ping … hello? …… is this … the internet? 😁

… the fibre internet?

(I don’t feel any difference 😂)

🥁 … Ich klicke jetzt mal auf
„Jetzt einrichten“

Glasfaser-News! ✨ Letzte Woche kamen doch tatsächlich (nach erneuten Telefonaten meinerseits) noch mal zwei Techniker bei uns vorbei um den Anschluss, der im Februar mit APL montiert wurde, endgültig zu aktivieren.

Sie stecken also ihr Modem an – es macht keinen Mucks. Auch nicht an einer anderen Steckdose, auch nicht mit einem anderen Netzteil.

„Wir kommen nächste Woche noch mal.”

🥹

Aber jetzt kommt’s: Heute waren sie dann tatsächlich noch mal da und … diesmal lief alles glatt. Der Glasfaser-Anschluss ist aktiviert! 🎉

Jetzt muss nur noch ich die Einrichtung mit meinem Modem abschließen. Das läuft sicher jetzt komplett problemlos durch … 🫣🤞

Seeing the DFB-Pokal final through the refcam is such an amazing perspective. Great stuff! 👏

In other news, I can’t concentrate because tomorrow ………… 😱🤍♥️ #VfB #dfbpokal #wirholendenpokal

Alright, so … websites.

Just gave @penpot a try for a project. It is much more mature than I had expected! But there are still quite a few bugs, quirks, and inconsistencies that make working with it very cumbersome. Still a way to go until this is a serious alternative to #Figma IMO.

Just to name just a few bugs: text is suddenly jumping to different positions, some gradients are flipped in the opposite direction while editing, I get sudden color changes for multiple elements although I was changing the color for just one element, and my collaborator can’t see images I added to the layout. Also, the color picker just stopped working completely in my project – whenever I want to pick a color, Penpot crashes.

And as the project has grown a little, zooming and panning is now starting to get really laggy… 😕

Hope the team fixes most of those issues quickly, because overall it definitely is an impressive open-source tool. 👏💚

As heard on @shoptalkshow 😘 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yetf8sTTUNE

“This is not mixing!”

@danworrall is back and reviews an over-marketed AI-powered channel strip audio plugin that claims to do the hard work for you so that “you’ll effortlessly get your mixes spot-on 100% of the time”…

How do you expect it to end? 😉
