Very happy to learn #ForAllMankind has been renewed for another season — even tho I was hoping it would get the funding for at least one additional season to bring its alt-history inline with our current decade
New data from Statistics Canada shows 27% of people in Canada self-identify as having at least one disability — that represents nearly 8 million individuals
If you ever get asked why accessible, and inclusive design, should be core to your product, try asking them to if they are okay with limiting the total user base to only 73% of its potential
If you've watched #TheBear's season 2, this #commercial may seem a bit to familiar to you — and if you haven't watched The Bear and are curious what it's like, this commercial gives you a good taste off it
Honestly, as someone who has lived as in #Toronto as a home owner for the past decade-and-a-half, a tax hike on property owners is waaaay overdue
Also: As a downtown-resident, knowing the city paid for driveway clearing, but not sidewalks is always stunning (even factoring in suburban vs urban pop politics)
If you work on building, maintaining , or creating #DesignSystems, this database is a great reference tool — and it's searchable by component, concept, and of course, #DesignSystem
Such a great example of how truly innovative design benefits from deep evolutionary transformation not simply radical revolution
By keeping the #typewriter's #UX the same while also improving the usability and delivering more stable and more valuable features for the user, #EliotNoyes designed a product that was better for everyone involved — including #IBM which could now sell a new, custom experience exclusively to its customers
@saila My dad had one of those! I loved those type balls as a kid, especially the one with Greek lettering; this was the pre-Macintosh era, so being able to type in multiple typefaces was amazing.
If you asked me 15 or so years ago how many of the top websites would have valid #HTML, my answer would not have been "Zero"
I'm sure there's lots of reasons to blame for the state of invalid affairs (machine-generated code, sloppy use of frameworks, more forgiving rendering engines, the failure of #FrontEnd development to evolve as a respected practice), but it still seems like such a missed opportunity to do better
Happy 87th birthday to one of the most important institutions in #Canada!
#CBC / #RadioCanada formerly came into existence today after taking over, and building out, the country's first #radio network, which was created by another Canadian institution, #CNRail
@saila If you're focused on facial-recognition, you're missing the point. The DNA/mismatching is an allegory for the lengths humanity will go through in order to 'fit in' with whatever social mobility model happens to work. Just as parents fight to put their kids in 'the right preschool,' or Ivy Leaguers fight to get hired by the right companies, there's a structure to our civilization and people are willing to game that structure in order to succeed. Still an enjoyable, thoughtful piece of scifi.
