Here’s where I’m at with the data gathering for the Type Atlas. Still a lot to fill in, but it already has more than 7000 typefaces. (Note: this is just a preview, the URL is likely to change)

Anyone have any recommendations of small dev tools they’d recommend? iOS or macOS oriented…

@sanguish Haven't tried it yet, but Brewer X, a GUI for Brew, seems really really nice: https://panini.house/brewer/

My assumption is that the main reason Microsoft's new Recall feature exists, is to collect massive amounts of extra training data for their LLM endeavours. That stuff is getting rare!

I haven’t formed my thoughts fully, but I think about this often: running a more ethical, less extractive and capitalist business.

I’ve spent years doing this and what surprised me was the lack of appreciation for “doing things right”. I thought there was a certain audience (often, the indie web one) who would. but mostly what I’ve seen was heavily entrenched capitalism.

@fox Do you have examples of the sort of things people wouldn't notice/appreciate?

Does "flexibleSpace" in for macOS not work correctly?

Anything besides a Spacer() that's required in the item?

Cykelero,
@Cykelero@mas.to avatar

@stroughtonsmith @ctietze In my experience, even with a sidebar tracker, flexible spaces won't do anything, when using the "everything on one row" style. You do have to use the older toolbar layout.

Just found these Apple Maps navigation screenshots from 2013. Delicious.

Same as the first screenshot, except the app is open, instead of being on the lock screen. There's a turn notification on top, which has texture and styles to look like an actual road sign, to some degree.

@phill I get the feeling that that's a real good first approximation. Like, don't make it more complex until you need to.

i’ve been a hobbyist photographer for years (mostly not taking it professional because i’ve been too tired from my tech jobs).

i just randomly got a paid job after i posted photos of a restaurant i visited one day on instagram. 😅 kind of chuffed!

@iandundas I hope that's the future of UI design. No more space taken up by pointlessly large toolbar buttons—just everything in a row, as colored stoplight buttons

@Cykelero @Retcon i'm shilling retcon over at twitter since that's where most of my social graph is (https://twitter.com/__justplaying/status/1788293496501055922) but seriously this app is the singlemost bull case for GUI apps. i just refactored a super messy branch into something much better with retcon + a bit of sourcetree + some CLI into a beautiful, mostly atomic set of commits, as it should be

Cykelero,
@Cykelero@mas.to avatar

@alice Thank youuuu 🙈 reading your Twitter thread is life-giving. Such such kind things you're saying. And, everyone should aspire to make their history fuckable honestly.

Cykelero,
@Cykelero@mas.to avatar

@alice I do have to ask: could you please describe what you went to Sourcetree/the CLI for?

Retcon will never do everything, that's part of what allows it to do things nicely, but I'm always looking for what should be added.

Cykelero,
@Cykelero@mas.to avatar

@alice Thanks for the details! That's good to hear, because, commit splitting is already planned (for a post-1.0 update). It'll be crazy easy—just unstage changes when in edit mode :)

As for performance, yyyikes. I recently made some important UI fixes that really impacted performance, which stinks. Do you remember if the slow commits had huge files, or rather many files?

Cykelero,
@Cykelero@mas.to avatar

@alice Alright, that's good data. Thanks!

Just came across a post "Count Visitors With Free API" and it includes the serverless fn powering my site's little stats counter.

I have no words.🤦‍♂️

Let's see if they accept the PR to remove my "public" API. 😅

@stefan >_< yeah, that's definitely not right
