is going through a heatwave.

I find these images to be a fantastic illustration of how visual communication can drastically vary depending on your point of origin/point of reference even when you deal with the same data.

This summer temperature in Reykjavik was above 13-15°C most of the time, and last few days it was around scorching 20°C! Unheard of.

My advice to all Icelanders is to stay hydrated, and to all folks dealing with -- be aware of your personal biases

Map of Iceland but from windy.com. Windy.com uses gradient from -20C (blue) to +40 (red-brownish). The entire Iceland is in cold greenish hues

You gotta use the right tool for the job, and sometimes the right tool is Comic Sans.

Does anybody know the name of this typeface which was prevalent in the 1950s and 60s? People often say it's Stymie Bold Italic, but it isn't. Stymie letters such as 'O' and 'U' are more rounded and the top of the 'A' has serif lines left and right, whereas my examples don't.

Hey, prog fan(s). Did you know that the rocks on the LP covers of Topographic Oceans and Relayer by Yes join up?
I've owned the albums for 40+ years and never noticed that before. I only spotted it by accident.

TYPOGRAPHY + CODING. A new superfamily of mono typefaces has been released for free. They are ostensibly for coding but have lots of features for graphic design, such as a feature called “texture healing” that adjusts letter shapes to have better rhythm but occupies the same space. And it has five styles.

I've long felt that 'Potato Jesus'/'Monkey Christ' has not received the respect he rightly deserves, so I have immortalised him in a medieval stained-glass window...

Hello! I'm a looking to for my first corporate job since graduating from college in December 2020.

My job preferences are already stated in my profile, but I'll expand upon them here.

I'm mainly considering any part-time positions related to , , , , , etc.

I've always been interested in technology & design ever since my teen years, so having the opportunity to work for a company in that field would be an honor.

Since I have an official autism diagnosis under my belt, I'm willing to work through obtaining any necessary accommodations with future bosses & managers to ensure that I can be a highly productive employee.

NOTE: My resume is currently a bit out of date, but I will make it available for anyone to read as soon as it's fully updated.

If anyone has any questions and/or would like to offer me an interview, my DMs are always open for recruiters.

P.S. Any boosts on this toot are greatly appreciated! 💜

@inkscape has quickly become one of my favourite design tools. The "Power stroke" live path effect allows you to turn a simple curvy stroke into a dynamic, sweeping form.

  1. Draw a curvy line using the pencil or the pen tool
  2. Open the "Path effects" panel
  3. Search for the path effect "Power stroke"
  4. Using the Node Tool (A), drag the purple handles to adjust the tapering

Video walking through the steps written to use the "Power stroke" live path effect in Inkscape. At the end of the walkthrough, I scroll through several example of swooping black lines with varying stroke thicknesses. No audio.

I've never been interested in stamps... but then I saw this new Swiss CHF 1.10 stamp.
It's not just a photographic reproduction: "To give the concrete wall depicted in the design a tactile dimension, cement pigments were added to the ultra-matt finish."
I think I'll pop out later and buy a few.
Switzerland continues to have a history of great !
