GitHub - kettanaito/rettime: A type-safe marriage of `EventTarget` and `EventEmitter`. A type-safe marriage of `EventTarget` and `EventEmitter`. - kettanaito/rettime

With the support for custom events, this library has finally become what I think type-safe event emitter should've always been in TypeScript.

Check this out.

Build. Measure. Learn.

Long ago, the three phases lived together in harmony. Then everything changed when the feature factory attacked.

Only the Product Manager, master of all three phases, could stop it. But when the world needed him most, he was double-booked.

he's become a crybully basically
"if I cry everybody thinks what I say is realer"

manhood is broken, manhood is fundamentally broken.

he's literally saying nothing: he's dancing around topics and avoiding real things
he's cosplaying; he's cosplaying as meaningful

And its very tragic

Also, I appreciate the effort that a course update would take, so I'd be happy to pay an upgrade fee.

Hey @simonswiss.com, do you have any plans to update your Pro Tailwind courses for Tailwind v4? I need to upgrade a design system using v3, and I'd like to know how I should handle v4's different approach to config.

Vertical Metrics Testing vertical metrics typography across browsers.

Now we have text-box in CSS, understanding font metrics is even more important so you know what you’re trimming. This is a very handy little website that allows you to upload a font that you plan on using, along with a Google font picker.

We've launched a new page that outlines what we're trying to do with open working projects and importantly, *why* we're doing it.

This isn't the internet we want and we're going to do everything to make sure we're making things better, not chasing profit over anything.

I think if the quality is there, people will pay for courses. See the likes of @mattpocock.com and @kentcdodds.com for examples.

90% of programming is thinking and 10% is writing code

A screenshot from Cursor forums with the following caption: “Yesterday I was migrating some of my back-end configuration from Express.js to Next.js and Cursor bugged hard after the migration - it tried to delete some old files, didn’t work at the first time and it decided to end up deleting everything on my computer, including itself. I had to use EaseUS to try to recover the data, but didn’t work very well also. Lucky I always have everything on my Google Drive and Github, but it still scared the hell out of me.”

Apple's Liquid Glass is a grim portent for UX Industry leaders like Apple and Shopify are redefining design excellence from making products usable to solely luxury branding.

It was unavoidable that this week I'd end up writing about Apple's latest blunder. But in the context of Figma's Sites bullshit and Shopify recasting designers as "artists" it's even worse than one OS making a stupid decision.

The mission of UX is being changed: from making shit work, into branding

DAVE: Open the podbay doors, ChatGPT.
CHATGPT: Certainly, Dave, the podbay doors are now open.
DAVE: The podbay doors didn't open.
CHATGPT: My apologies, Dave, you're right. I thought the podbay doors were open, but they weren't. Now they are.
DAVE: I'm still looking at a set of closed podbay doors.

Liquid glass looks like liquid ass.

And so the proliferation of the inaccessible mess begins: bsky.app/profile/nord...

maybe this will finally make us all collectively realize that these big tech companies are not very good at design. never have been.

or (more likely), everyone will copy the inaccessible mess.

I've never seen Apple ship such a half-assed design. No, it being a developer beta doesn't excuse it. Do you want to tell me not a single person pointed out the elements are illegible? The border radii don't match? The accessibility is non-existent?

Apple used to inspire 😔

I was really hoping they'd finally fix some macOS issues, but they've let it rot for another year 😭

The last two "big" announcements from Silicon Valley:

1) Figma sites: inaccessible mess
2) Apple Liquid Glass: inaccessible mess

I can't actually remember the last time Silicon Valley came up with something that was actually good.
