If you type in incomplete sentences.

And write fragments on separate lines.

It doesn’t make your point any more impactful.

It just makes it sound weird in my head.

OS-level zoom! I’m always control + scrolling to see da pixels! And keyboard navigation, escape to close dialogs, expecting fields to be focused when a dialog or popover is shown so I can use them immediately and hit enter when done β€” accessibility is enablement for all users, even power users!

Another batch of freshly rebuilt iBook clamshell batteries, this time with Samsung 30Q. A little less capacity at around 4,000mAh, but much better fit for the β€œwire” variety of OEM battery.

A woman in a robe pouring milk into a bowl with a box of cereal behind it.

My wife pours the milk in the bowl before the cereal. Is this a cultural difference or is she a psychopath?

And yes she’s having cereal for dessert.

Three people in sky blue shirts and jeans climbing the steps of the US Capitol, including a young blonde girl wearing a red and white bandanna around her head and turning to look at the camera

Today is the 35th anniversary of the Capitol Crawl, in which disabled activists discarded their mobility aids at the foot of the Capitol steps to climb them in support of passage of the Americans with Disabilities Ac. Jennifer Keelan-Chaffins, 8, told reporters "I'll take all night if I have to!"

Legitimately had the same struggle this week trying to build an old repo and I’ve been consuming and publishing packages on npm for 12 years. This isn’t because you’re a designer, it’s because frontend dev environments are brutally complicated and hopelessly brittle.
