I'm clearly in an Instacart test group for removing the "many in stock" indicator from products, and I feel like I won the bad UX lottery. Please, I just don't want to have a conversation about oranges and their many replacements.

Has anyone gotten in to the early access for Figma slots? Is it as good as I’m hoping?

I like that the same day a guy was like “this place will never be Twitter” this thread gave us the most 2015 Twitter experience (complimentary) imaginable.

One of the most horrific codebases I've ever seen is one in which all the styling was done using Tailwind's @apply. No utility classes in markup, just CSS files full of selectors and @apply. They had inexplicably reinvented CSS in Tailwind, and it struck fear into my very heart. #Tailwind #CSS

tailwind discourse spinning up now is so funny. i didn't previously know that the main tailwind guy actively hates CSS as a technology, but it makes complete sense if you have ever had the displeasure of reading tailwind based fe code, which feels like it has total disdain for you as the reader

Thank goodness every port is usb c now so we can live in a world where cables are inscrutable and we have to write on them whether they can do data or charging. It’s like HDMI only even worse and I love that for us.

I finished watching a YouTube video and the autoplay was a full movie and the max resolution is 480p. I feel like I’ve gone back in time please let me live here in 2009 forever.

A real news outlet publishing the phrase "Grok apologized" should result in like a week-long timeout. Think about what you've done.

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans. 🧵 1 of 9

They’re about to call me Cuban Pete.

They're selling you the same pasta in different shapes and you're falling for it

Every state in the United States has a disgusting soda that only they know about and that’s kind of beautiful

Every CBS show looks like a parody of a CBS show

So love wobbegongs. Everything is good about the wobbegong. Its name. Its flattened Oscar the Grouch face. Its frondy bits. Its lazy life as a hungry rug. And it’s a shark. Outstanding animal 10/10

Happy ice cold sink water season to all who celebrate

What if ponies had wings? What if dinosaurs walked around smoking giant doobies? What if fish had bicycles and we all wore them on our heads like little hats

There's an easy way to check whether news are trustworthy: are you getting them from a propaganda rag (WaPo, NYT), or from the paper of record (Teen Vogue)?

Miley was right, it’s a party in the USA because I’m uncomfortable and I just want to go home and hug my dog for a while

In short: bet on yourself over a technology that continues to underwhelm, continues to cause huge problems and will eventually pop. Be ready for when it does, for the $$$

One of the neat* things about adding +companyName every time you sign up for something, is that you can tell when @adobe.com sells your info to recruiters.

You should read the whole piece from @edzitron.com but if you only read one paragraph, make it this one: OpenAI has burned so much money that there is no more money. Read that again: it's not just OpenAI that's broke. All of VC is broke. www.wheresyoured.at/the-case-aga...

Ah man we’re screwed

New: the world of Ruby has gone completely off the rails over the past few weeks. Developers suddenly locked out, corporate pressure, and claims of a "hostile takeover" of one of the most critical pieces of infrastructure for the internet we all rely on everyday www.404media.co/how-ruby-wen...

As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read. They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

Wow this scene is so suspenseful! When will something happen? Ok maybe too suspenseful? Oh I sat on the remote and paused it and I’ve been watching a still frame for two straight minutes.

"This tech isn't going away!" "This is inevitable!" "Adapt or get left in the dust!" are all things we're being told by the same people who were telling us you're going to need a blockchain dingus to unlock your front door two years ago.

Oh, to be a tiny harvest mouse in a bundle of flowers right now 🐭🌼 #art #cuteart #mouse #mice

I don’t use genai because I lie to computers, they shouldn’t lie to me. That’s my job. The fool.

UNLIMITED VELOCITY

My boss: Can't you get Copilot to validate the info in the spreadsheet? Me: Well, do we want it to be accurate or not? Because either I check it myself or I ask Copilot and then check its output *and* the spreadsheet, so... Boss: What's the point of Copilot then? Me: Exactly.

Hot take: fish are weird and I’m glad they don’t live on land. They don’t have arms or legs, they do everything face first, they hug weird

Bad news, everyone

Everyone gathering around their TV screens at 2pm like it's Groundhogs day to see if we have 6 more weeks of fascism

It's time. Amazon is pulling the plug on shared Prime accounts. I've been on my wife's for, I don't know, 15 years? Signal of dominance (because they can) or signal of fear (because they're about to get hit hard because of Trump tariffs/depression)? "Thank you for being a valued customer!" lol

Talking to myself in my office: WHY DO I HAVE SO MANY OLD LAPTOPS I guess I can pull the drives out and then recycle them But ... what if I wanted to install Linux on them or take the screens off for a project *Heaps them back into the laptop pile* Repeat every year. Never install Linux.

when it happens... I will be online ALL day. cancel my appointments. hold my calls. "what were you doing when you found out?" my grandchildren will ask. "the posts, children, I was reading the posts!!" I'll say, and we'll all crowd around my scrapbook containing the best ones

If you’re curious how much power genAI models take to run, I invite you to try running one locally. On your best gaming PC. It’s not going to go well.

ME: [existing] DOCTOR: [getting ready to spin the wheel that says "Lose Weight," "Have a Baby" & "It's Just Anxiety"] ME: I think my toe is broken DOCTOR: Have you been feeling anxious lately?

let’s watch as folks ask why the non-deterministic tools don’t return deterministic outputs over and over again — this is fun — we’re having fun and being productive
