I heard video killed the radio star.

Turns out reading speed and retention is better with dark text on a light background. I always use automatic switching when available… Light during the day and dark at night.

Unless it’s my code editor, if someone switches my code editor to light mode I’ll murder them.

That is what I’ve heard. Like digital painting and stuff.

Haven’t used Facebook in probably a decade, but as a photographer Instagram is still the most active platform I’ve tried. Vero is weird. PixelFed is pretty empty, mostly people’s snapshots. Others either cost money or aren’t really good on mobile.

DESCRIPTION Lavender is an AI system that produces lists of Palestinians to be targeted for assassination by the Israeli military “with little human oversight and a permissive policy for casualties”, according to +972 Magazine.

Big yikes.

What?! They have very unique squiggles and bright colors! No one else is doing that.

I really don’t get the logic of redesigns like this or The Verge. Was the design team just told, “traffic is down make it look new so we can post a blog about it”?

So, I see this comment a lot, but am always a little confused. Are other phone manufacturers not doing those same things? Is there solid evidence that Google, Samsung, or the 1,000s of random Chinese offerings are better in that regard? Why call out iPhones when all smartphones use essentially the same materials and will inevitably be e-waste in less than a decade?

I usually hear it from one of two camps (or both at the same time).

1. The world (read capitalist economy) can’t continue to grow without ever-growing population.
2. The (Christian) Bible says that sex is for making babies. Getting married implies having sex. So, if you’re getting married you’d better be making babies.

Man, 5 years. I know nothing about building a browser, but that seems… Long.

This is a welcome change, but took waaay too long. I switched to Bitwarden a long time ago and have no plans on changing now.
