The part of "everyone becomes a manager" in AI that I didn't really think about until now was the mental fatigue of context switching and keeping many tasks going at once, which of course is one of the hardest parts of being a manager and now you all get to enjoy it too

Netflix’s new passwordless login feels like a deceptive pattern. At first glance, it looks like Netflix removed the option to log in with a password. Your only visible path is the email code flow, with a code that expires in 15 minutes.

Netflix login page, with a message saying Enter the code we sent to your email, and a 4 digit empty box. A Get Help small section is collapsed at the bottom of the screen

Same login page, with the 4 digits code input. The small Get Help section is expanded and reveals a first link that reads I can't access this email right now.

Amp’s decision to deprecate their VS Code extension is very questionable. Saying that CLI is a better way to use LLMs for coding is an opinion that many, myself included, don’t share. I’m tired of changing my workflow every week just because someone decided that this is better for me. It’s not.

It’s fun to watch how LLM is randomly changing values in TypeScript/ESLint/Vitest/etc config files for a full hour until it somehow starts to work. I usually do exactly the same.

This is probably not a revelation to everyone but with CSS nesting adding reduced motion support is as easy as wrapping your transition (or animation) declaration in a no-preference media query. div { /* css styles */ @media (prefers-reduced-motion: no-preference) { transition: …; } }

another good example of `tabular-nums` in action. must have for columns of right-aligned numbers (tables, invoices, dashboards). normal table's columns have ragged left edges as digits swap between narrow ("1") and wide ("0", "8") glyphs. where tabular stays perfectly flush ~

`tabular-nums` should be the default for any number that updates ( timers, counters, prices, percentages, scores, live data etc ). you can enable this tnum OpenType feature using the CSS property `font-variant-numeric`. .tabular-nums { font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums; }

Accessibility tip of the day: a tool that claims to generate AI alt text, but starts the alt text with "the image is", is not a tool you should use. Why? Because screen readers already announce images, so adding "image of" is annoying and useless.

An example of an image used to supplement other information. The image is a dog, the alt reads Off-duty guide dogs often wear a bell. Its ring helps the blind owner keep track of the dog’s location. The code for this alternative text is available with that example.

Monthly reminder that, while there's no "one size fits all" perfect font for accessibility, you still want to avoid anything thin: it makes it very hard to read. Also, the smaller & thinner the font, the more important contrast is. Let users comfortably read your content! #Accessibility #Typography
