sunburned knees are ostensibly Not The One™

@DavidDarnes for real we do this in strongman to get tacky (helps atlas stones stick to you so you can lift them) off our skin and genuinely the sight of huge topless lads helping each other bathe in wd40 is one to behold.

this site would be better if everyone shut the fuck up about twitter ngl

Right now, a lot of fedi advocates are asking authors and artists to leave the social media sites that have allowed them to get by, but without doing much/anything to support those newcomers once they arrive here—even leaving aside the old-guard pushback against “self promotion.”

And idk, “staying on twitter for your work makes you the object of my disgust,” is maybe not the persuasive tool a lot of people here seem to believe it is. 🤷🏻

sometimes (aka this one time just now) you (aka me) just need an iframe that renders a colour when you pass in a hex code and i couldn't find it so i built it.

`https://anycolor.vercel.app/?c=[hex-code]` (add `s=true) to show the hex code.

e.g.: https://anycolor.vercel.app/?c=ffa9c8&s=true

spending a sunday in a hotel room building drag and drop from scratch cause i miss my dog cool sure do love normal brain

Just over a month to go until All Day Hey! 2023, a conference for digital creators 🎉

I'm really proud of the line-up for this one. On Thursday, 4th May, we'll welcome an international line-up of speakers to Leeds for the seventh year of the single-track conference.

With talks about building effective teams, accessibility, reducing complexity and turning rubbish into art, there's bound to be something for you. Help us promote the event across the region to make this the best yet!

just spent a solid 40 seconds semi-convinced (by myself) that rabbits lay eggs. absolute cabbage brain today.

one of the main reason 'answer my fucking question' AI feels so innovative is because our industry's pool of content is saturated with bad docs and grifters who churn out awful articles incessantly for clout and to cling to relevance. having something that sifts through all the wrong/disorganised shit for you feels revolutionary now. but then, so will good docs. and shutting the fuck up.

the last few days have been the absolute worst days of post-lockdown times but the sun is finally bothering to say hiya and now i feel like i can move? madness.

if it navigates you away from the current context it's a link. if it performs an action within the current context it's a button. it's never a div. stop it.

i think i've tweeted about this a thousand times already but fucking hell converge + chelsea wolfe is just the perfect combo. this album is fucking legendary. an all-time masterpiece. just outrageous.

Remember me tooting that Lighthouse 10 would remove the `Chrome-Lighthouse` User-Agent string?

In a not-so-surprising turn of events, people are starting to report that Lighthouse/PageSpeed Insights is now 'wrong' or 'broken', but it isn't…

They've used the User-Agent header to detect Lighthouse and altered pages in order to get a higher Lighthouse Performance Score 🙃

Now the scores aren't as high and people want answers!

@Chris @michelle @DavidDarnes you can also access all your library components from Figma inside FigJam. Which is so good for wireframing (especially if you have icon components, etc.).

FigJam is the best design tool ever made. Simping hard for it. Perfect lil fucker. It's a better Miro made for cute people. Love it.

You’re not a prompt engineer you’re just a cunt.

There exists no capitalist system within which large-scale, generative AI is anything but morally reprehensible. You cannot reconcile wage theft and automation. It’s just another stop for the worker-erasure circus that tech libertarians are fucking obsessed with.

wild how music peaked with the kung fu panda soundtrack tbh

I feel like something getting overlooked in AI discourse right now is that proliferation does not necessarily mean advancement.

ahhh yes this is the weekend-ruining liverpool team i've gotten used to this season.
