I think they show the clusters? Light/dark blue = H, gray = F, white = T or P. Not sure, seems like you’d want one color per cluster rather than two colors for one and one color for two.

It’s a fun idea but the system would probably be impenetrable to most riders. Wouldn’t it make more sense to base it on a map? A map of lines and stops already gives you a pretty good birds-eye view of where you can go from a particular sto

So how does palette.supply qualify? It’s a hard-to-navigate scrolljacking feast. But it’s certainly visually appealing.

On the other hand, if it replaces large parts of your workflow, that means your work is now very different. It will perhaps be more about making strategic decisions, less about implementing the details. So depending on what type of work you

It must be the combination of the complex, dynamic shape, and our high sensitivity to hands that look ‘off’. There are many other things that are hard to draw accurately but where we are completely convinced by very cartoonish representati

There’s something pleasant about software that feels light and simple and does one thing well. Most software tends to grow to become perhaps more useful, but also complex and inelegant. Not sure if that explains your observation or not, but

Some unstated things that I didn’t understand, if it helps make the game better: - You don’t have to use all letters. - You do have to start the word all the way to the left. - It has to be a valid scrabble word before you get any feedbac

You can’t make a conditional using < and ?: in CSS, can you? That’s why they are using a very sharp black/white gradient, which unfortunately creates a gray in some cases. Apparently the contrast is not sharp enough.

Matching up the template strings with the values is a little wonky because there’s always one more string than value. But it’s pretty rare that you’d write lots of different tagging functions, usually you write a generic one to use with man

Bluetooth is terrible (unreliable, slow to connect, extreme latency, bad sound quality), but wireless is great. Currently they are one and the same mediocre user experience, so I’m hoping UWB or something else can fix these problems sometim

They seemed to care about making it easy to make good websites, and they hired Rich Harris to work on Svelte. Overall I’ve gotten good vibes and values from them. But AMP was built on toxic values, and dishonesty. Hiring a CTO who was respo

Look, it’s the AMP guy. He’s CTO of Vercel now? Edit: I can’t overstate how much this changes my perception of Vercel. I thought they genuinely cared about the open web, but I guess that was just good branding.

It sounds like you are very concerned with making sure people know this. Were you concerned with that before you painted them? Before you decided to share them, and how to share them? Then clearly there is an artistic intent behind them.
