Google Maps changed its URL from “https://maps [dot] google [dot] com” to “https://google [dot] com/maps”. Looks like it’s not a big deal, but when you grant the location permission in your browser you now grant it to the whole #google [dot] com domain. 🤨

Definitely not a fan of threads.

I almost never make it past two tweets, esp for threads that are longer than 3 tweets. Most folks who write long threads follow the same writing rules (start with the hook, etc etc etc) and so all threads end up sounding the same. https://twitter.com/adambsilver/status/1596397978603819008

A silver lining to the craziness in the past weeks is that you should realize that you are as capable, or more capable, than the heroes and leaders of the industries we are a part of.

Secondly, as someone who has been writing HTML/CSS/JS for more than 20 years, it’s obvious to me what has been proven over and over again: bet on the core foundations of the web, and don’t try to one-up them. Extend them (think PostCSS etc.) and get the most out of them, but ..

I’m sorry but “non-fungible” will always mean “impossible to turn into a mushroom” to me

I think designers underestimate just how good, usable, inclusive, & sometimes even refreshingly delightful “boring” design is.

• Visible labels & instructions.
• Link underlines!
• Good text contrast.
• Lists!
• Links! (to separate pages vs. modal dialogs)

Usable > aesthetic.

One year I went to Defcon and left an old laptop out with “Do your worst” written on it.

@simonw @mwseibel A big part of the problem is that social networks, with a big helping hand from Google itself, killed the Web. The closing of Google Reader was a signal of what was to come. There’s no way today to do something like PageRank, because nobody links to or curates content anymore.

I’m feeling very philosophical with all the social media changes lately. I feel like videos take up so much of our time and focus, and with all of the apps prioritizing them so much, I feel less and less interested in watching/participating to… “own my focus” more, in a way.

HTML/CSS Tips for <img> 🤳

– Use “onerror” to catch and set a fallback “src” ✨ – Set a “subtle” background-color so users know something is coming 💀 – Use CSS aspect-ratio to avoid layout shifts 🖼️

• Remember your “alt” attribute where necessary 🙏

The fact that is considered legal for a corporation to compile perfect records of your private life simply because you had to “click OK to continue” to make your phone work is a perfect expression of who holds the power in society and why they should be cast into the sea.

Privacy must be the default because you never know if what you’ve been talking about may suddenly become evidence
