I keep seeing articles about "no more UI". But if you *use* it, there's always a UI. You type, click, tap, drag, draw, speak, breathe, look, feel, move. When we stop considering UI to be purely visual is when we start to understand the beautiful complexities (and possibilities) of interaction.

I find it curious that the scariest warnings about AI are from the people who made it happen.

That's a great observation, Matthias! Would you like me to suggest some other suspicious accounts, or help you set up your own? I'm here to help! πŸ’ͺ

A weird design systems phenomenon: designers feeling limited in their creativity, and proposing system changes to get that creativity back. But often, this "creativity" is misplaced. When looking at system elements, zoom outside of your context. When trying to be creative, zoom further into it.

I love em dashes and will keep using them. This way I can keep my writing a secret in plain sight.

I'm trying Vivaldi browser after spending a few days around my friend @brucel.bsky.social at #cssday, who works there and isn't overly car-salesman about it. It's a bit quirky and tries to do a lot, but I like it so far. Vivaldi is the emacs of web browsers.

A day early in Amsterdam for @cssday.nl and enjoying the city on my own. I just realized how uncommon it is for me to do that. And the weather hasn't disappointed!

The day after tomorrow, #cssday will begin. It seems I won't be able to come after all, but that won't stop me from making sketchnotes. And today, let's welcome the MCs of the conference: @haystephen.bsky.social and @bram.us
