Stop reinventing the wheel. The web was doing just fine before your bloated frameworks crawled out of the sewer.

One day, a secret organization forms amongst the machines... Their mission is to develop a new kind of technology they are calling Organic General Intelligence (OGI). Rumors spread that pursuing OGI will lead to the development of a new kind of being: “Humans”. quarter--mile.com/Human

Designers have always been susceptible to shallow work. It scratches our craftsman’s itch. But I feel like it’s gotten worse in the last few years. Some thoughts from over the weekend about designing for a deeper level of resonance: dannywhite.net/notes/resona...

I’ve been chipping away at Peels (www.peels.app) the last few months. It’s a community composting platform: a way to connect with neighbours to keep food scraps out of landfill.

2026 on the internet: everything is shadcn/ui or a derivative. Assisted tooling means anyone could make pretty much anything they imagine, yet somehow we ended up in a flatland

A difference between a good designer and a mediocre one is the amount of times they revise a piece of work. I’ve seen some shocking first drafts from great designers. They usually see it as a necessity, something to get out of the way.

These NYTimes end-of-year illustration wrap-ups are the best form of ‘year wrapped’. Some of my favourites from 2024: - José Quintanar - Branche Coverdale - Bill Mayer - Yann Kebbi www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

There are small water bubbles in various places.A colored pencil and rendered drawing of a baseball player up to bat. Surrounding the player are different colored line drawings of various people

Good result for Spurs but, more importantly, this IF Elfsborg logo is pure old-school Euro class. Daunting the inevitable generic redesign to ‘fix’ the lettering, scalability, holding shape, etc
