I wonder if they could theoretically rest on top of the notch, not fully locked into either position and flip accidentally. No idea how the switches behave when not all the way up or down, but the notch looks pretty long and flat so it coul

I think the new Apple design tries to do this too much and it will cause some issues. They're trying to make many things modal, split and merge on scroll, show and hide contextually. The intentions might be good, an intelligent interfa

I’ve been starting my prompts more and more with the phrase „Let’s brainstorm“. Really powerful seeing different options, especially based on your codebase. > I wouldn't give them a big feature again. I'll do very small things

I know it's only anecdotal, but my mom doesn't get it. She's not super interested in her iPad and basically only uses it when she has to or for FaceTime. She'd be the perfect test subject for stress testing UIs and more

At this point only the power users are left anyways, so I wonder if a paid, or at least freemium, browser for power users might actually work. Kind of sounds like Arc. But nowadays we rarely get new features and when they do come out, they’

Well that’s more or less exactly what the comment was talking about. Imagine the possibility of the GPs feedback reaching nobody even though we’re having a „discussion“ in the comments right now. Might as well talk to a support chatbot to s

Same here when the Raising the Bar reprint releases. I never managed to get the first edition, so I'm beyond excited they decided to make a second one after all this time. And as a fan, I need to have it.

At least for me it’s less about the individual article, in that case I agree with you, but more about the case where you have 25 articles. Now you can’t possibly get through all of them and have to decide which of those could be worth your

That’s pretty nice and intuitive. The panning is heavy as expected, the emoji picker surprisingly quiet. But something is seriously wrong with the context menus.

Yeah, the part where he’s talking about „his startup“ not being all in, because he wants to do consulting as a fallback. Turns out that’s a little dishonest since he has a whole agency where benched employees work on „his startups“. In the

Found a recent screenshot of it on Reddit. Looks good, I hope it has similar nesting like Tree Style Tab though. In my opinion that is still the best implementation of this idea across all browsers. Firefox' UI has kinda stagnated. It&

Yeah, definitely a way to end up with a Siri like mess if you do this long enough. The use case is there and it’s going to be very useful, but the magic is wearing off.

No, you're most certainly not alone. Very few icons are intuitively understandable, although even the folks at Nielsen Norman have trouble backing that up with data (as linked below). What immediately came to my mind was Autodesk Maya,

Funny, the first ~15 are easy simply by spamming h1-h6, i, u, em, etc… but then it gets hard. Probably the only time I’ll ever use menu, dfn or del/ins.

I wanted to say my Figma plugins that I made for myself, but I published them so it doesn't count. When I was around 15 I wanted to try out Win Forms. I also used to play a lot of Dota 2 so I created this app to calculate how many Tech

That headline almost made me spill my coffee. But in all seriousness, it’s amazing that something like this still happens today. And I can only imagine massive amounts of hubris from the founder‘s side is to blame. Around launch I wondered

Noticed that as well. At first I wondered for how long they would be driving left, but then I remembered that highway crossings are often mirrored. An overview of the whole intersection would clear things up a lot.

Great article, probably confirming something a lot of people on here have already suspected. But I am honestly shocked at how dire this situation seems. > Reddit isn't the only winner after Google's recent algorithm updates. SE

Great news. FFs UI has been falling behind the other browsers lately and vertical tabs is something I really like. Good that they also want to include tab groups so there’s hope this will work like Tree Style Tabs. That extension is probabl

Wow, the headline is so large, I'm having trouble reading it. Then there's the sticky header, on my screen it takes up 1/5th of the available space. Or the headings, subheadings and tabs that float away (proximity principle f

Yeah, fully agree. Tried to get into Sketch (multiple) times actually via their 30 day trial. But I've repeatedly run out of time testing details and special cases next to the job, so Figma it is. For note taking tools it's also h

Have to admit I'm slightly disappointed that the FF version only shows two users still and one of them is me.

That’s a very cool project and I wish something like this would exist for all websites. A few years ago I did a university project where we looked into (internet) research and how information discovery and gathering could be improved. ( htt

Tailwind is more a way to easily apply styles in websites built using one of the popular app and/or component frameworks. If you have many different buttons you’d create a Button component and the framework would do the work of „copyin

I’d have liked a bit more on the visual (and subjective part, this is probably also there the issues lies, apart from bugs) alignment aspect. The first apple example seems pretty well centered to me for example. I’d like to use system fonts

Do you have any recommendations? I assume this is the one you’re talking about https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/ I was curious, went to the end (page 699!) and it’s pretty interesting. But obviously it’s hard

Seems like it. The about page also screams ChatGPT. I had a quick look and a lot of posts have the same GPT-like style.
