Kicking off a new experiment in writing and sharing resources on Medium hitting one year older…

Hopefully over time some will find some use out of shared work on us design, accessibility, and other musings.

Buried under two passed out dogs on a couch

Spending the night buried in dogs

Ducky and Morty all snuggled up on the couch by the Christmas tree

All snuggled up for Christmas, counting down till unwrapped bones

Such a great game, and some of the game art and screenshots are in my wallpaper rotation since not only is it a great game, it’s gorgeous too

That’s a pretty sweet idea

Truck buried in snow with a now mostly cleared driveway

It’s travel ban season, the most wonderful time of year… at least Ducky is frolicking in the powder like it’s the best day ever

I just did a shared note in Apple Notes since both mine have iPhones and it’s a simple list with links that they can access without downloading or signing up for anything. A shared Google Doc would work cross platform for those not familiar with the Apple ecosystem.

Thawing out… #GoBills

I used to use Firefox, primarily Firefox Development Edition for years until Arc came along and completely switched to Arc once I got an invite, though now I’m kind of interested in switching to Zen. It has its pros and cons for sure. I still slightly prefer Arc more but Zen is closing the gap

Last time I logged in to check my Family’s group I saw more ads than posts / status updates. That and the debacle keeps me away aside from the occasional check-in with people that only use Facebook.

So tempting when I saw these come out, this one and the Starfield one caught my eye…

You can set up multiple “pages” of controls. The ones I have currently include:

- Media Controls for Music and YouTube
- Shortcuts, Pan, and Zoom for Figma
- Controls for Zoom / Teams Calls
- Dashboard with Clock, Pinned Apps, and Websites

Desk setup that includes a Stream Deck + for illustration purposes

As someone who got the Nomad E keyboard from Work Louder, I much more enjoy the Stream Deck + I have. The knobs and extra display you get is worth it over the standard deck for me.

They also have upgraded versions of the “+” now with audio hookups (such as xlr) too if you need them.

Nice! Great read, and also super curious on the comments integration as well. A bunch of stuff I’ve been seeing possible with the ATProtocol makes me want to start playing with development again.

Bye week vibes #GoBills

Why not both? I have my devices hooked up to an automation to switch at sunrise/sunset, best of both worlds.

#MACtion at its peak, reminds me of my first UB Bulls game before they were good when they beat Temple 9-3 and the student section stormed the field. I wondered if I made the right decision to join the marching band that day 🤣

So they went from Jaguar to JaGUar… interesting…

This looks gorgeous, are there plans for other platforms for the next release with the new engine?

This book was my introduction to Tintin… now I’m wondering if my hardcover is still buried somewhere in my parents’ attic

Too real 🤣

You can swap out the color values with variables, I’ve messed around with it on my personal site as a playground a while ago but it’s definitely out of date… but the focus outlines do change with depending on the situation. I’ve used that trick for context (error states) and light/dark modes

That presentation makes me jealous 😳… I’m in the middle of building out a system always enjoy some inspiration eye candy. I’m glad to see the focus on accessibility they’ve got going as well, it’s finally catching on more that accessible doesn’t mean ugly.

Great compilation of design, code, and reference examples. I’ve been a fan of the double, offset focus outlines for accessibility for a while and try to get them into projects whenever possible and situationally appropriate.

By boneless wings they mean chicken nuggets…

Constant practice and learning… at least that’s how it’s been with me and some of my team with a few of us taking courses on it to stay up to date on the capabilities and limitations of the various models.

There’s a few areas it speeds up some workflows but still a lot where it’s lacking.

A look at an office desk setup including a standing desk, speakers, NAS, laptop, monitor, and other devices

Finally had a chance to clean and tweak the setup with a rare instance of Ducky not being parked under my desk, and definitely digging the old school Mac UI wallpaper and screensaver #workspace

It’s part of my must have sauces in the house currently in addition to a select few

Game Days are Good Days #GoBills

Officially did a thing…
