To celebrate the new "border-shape" property being tested in @developer.chrome.com I made a nice little tool for helping you generate CSS shape functions. Try it here: ailab.nordcraft.site/pen-tool

😊

Working on an "Experience" section of my portfolio. Yes, it's going to be a platformer! 🍄

I’m working on the final part of Whimsical Animations, all about Canvas animation. There’s such fun examples in this part, from confetti geysers to fireworks displays. 😄 Here’s one of the smaller exercises leading up to the big stuff. 🚀

I don't know you @rbtnguyen.com — but you have a nice portfolio 👏 rbtnguyen.com

Silly. But amazing.

It is incredible hard to break the "this is how design should look like" mold in software development. Statistically (made up fact), I have most likely seen your product without having seen your product. Stay human.

insane that we really didn't realise that a lot of the people we grew up with watching movies about technology driven fascist dystopias were actually rooting for the bad guys on an aspirational level

What a lovely time to be alive! AI powered Department of War (yes, that's the actual name) lead by the American Oligarchy! Yay!

Good lawd! 😮 Just woke up to a @nordcraft.com user having created a 7-hour Nordcraft course! IN ONE VIDEO!

A Professional Enshittificator at work!

Yep, over-complicating and being snobbish about what a machine does better 😉

Well... 🫣 Today I learned there's a CSS `zoom` property that scales an element's visual appearance and (!) layout. I can't be the only one hearing about this for the first time, right? www.stefanjudis.com/today-i-lear...

Let's play: "Name the band" 🎊 💽 1st album: "HOLY FUCK! THIS IS THE BEST MUSIC EVER!" 💽 2nd album: "Wow, good stuff." 💽 3rd album: "Okay, I guess..." 💽 4th album: "No... don't do that..." 💽 5th album: "No." 💽 6th album: "Ah, maybe there something to it..." 💽 7th album: "STAPH! Please, stop!"

Cute 😻

Are you a designer scratching your eyes out over the weird border-radii in macOS Tahoe? Then do what I did: try the hyped Linux distro "Omarchy." Read on to see why Omarchy might be the Linux distro for designers with OCD. Come for the macOS rage — stay for the interactive Linux "simulation."

It never stops not being funny 🙂

✨ I just published a new blog post about a nifty lil’ animation technique: sprites! Sprites are used all the time in video games, but they’re less common on the web. We do have the tools to manage it in CSS, but there’s a gotcha. In this post, I share some of the cool use cases I’ve found:

There is a very simple rule when using LLM to write. Is it intended for you to read? Use an LLM (if you want) Is it intended for others to read? Don’t use an LLM.

Andreas is smart. Be like Andreas.

Or maybe float that AI slop ship back home to a place that doesn't have free healthcare and taste.

This is deeply antihuman, and it's unfortunately how a lot of tech bros and oligarchs see the world and humanity under capitalism.

We’re into this one from @svenning.io. Check it out in the gallery 👀 → https://headers.social

If AI does take our jobs, our ability to type on strange keyboards will be all that separate us from regular people.

NEW WEBSITE! 🥳 svenning.io Remember to try the theme switcher!

Have I committed a crime buy buying laptop stickers online instead of getting them at a conference?

Pretty happy with the new hero graphics on nordcraft.com ✌️

Dagens ord er..

So this guy one-shot a C compiler in less than 30s in @nordcraft.com

I wish did this more often: instead of ranting about something that annoys me — give tribute to something that's nice. Well done mate 👏

11 years ago I created LEGO cities for commercials for a living.

What a performance! 👏

I'm creating a selection of cool websites! Share your very coolest!

I don't really understand what is happening in CSS land? I love that the CSS working group is so active and we are getting things like Anchor position, CSS Color Module 3 and animation-timelines. Things that are making CSS so much more powerful.❤️ But not all new features make as much sense to me

We have to stop looking at AI as a good-vs-bad. Is it good copying other peoples work for profit? 🛑 No! Is it nice not having to do repeated non-value-adding work? ✅ Yes! Don't use AI for creative output, use AI for the grunt work. It's really that simple.

This is the best trade-off between fashion and ergonomics. 👠 Fashion: 10/10 fashion 🖐 Ergonomics: who cares, it's so beautiful 😻 And I haven't even tried it yet. It's and external keyboard btw. So f****** cool!

Oh boy! These people go hard! 😮

This guy has a fantastic concept: each day he paints a random mini-dungeon by rolling dice! 🙂

this designer built his portfolio as a working phone interface. click around and you'll find easter eggs everywhere. insanely creative. → raffi.zip by @raffichill

You have to force senior+ engineers to talk to customers. Senior+ engineers are good at finding problems and then they’ll want to fix them. You want those problems to be stuff customers care about not frameworks and refactoring bullshit

Fun! Pull the lever! Or don't! neal.fun/absurd-troll...

Will I bite? Yes. Will I regret it? Also, yes.

Custom cursors are never not funny! 😃 Look at me paint the text! Hah!

The Sharp 902 from 2005 had a screen could swivel 180 degrees and lay flat on the keypad, making it feel more like a point-and-shoot camera for taking photos. Back when people carried around their phone and camera, this phone tried to combine them into one.

What is this shitshow of a nested border-radius! 🫠 I'm late to the party, I know, but oh my!

Just finished some "external link buttons" for my new website ✌️

Would buy..

Nice.
