The problems they're solving for are above design twitters paygrade. With this "refinement" and emphasis on the wordmark it seems like they want to become this generations visa/mastercard. The logo is fun but not iconic/ubiquitous so it takes a back seat and becomes a plaything
lol at people declaring the new PayPal logo a crime against design, as though the previous mark was a thing of true craft and beauty. People need to stop being obsessed with logo marks. It’s the context and broader visual language the logo sits in which makes the identity.

very cool that @cursor_ai can respond to downtime from one model provider by swapping it. There's a note but the user experience is completely seamless.

Writing code with @cursor_ai is incredible. It changes everything for me. At this phase of model capability, it feels like a perfect match for someone who wants to understand the code generated and can debug but is more concerned with outcomes.

My partner may leave me over my insistence that she stop saying "Slide Deck." Just say Slides or Deck. It's cleaner. We also argue over "Barbecue Grill"

hi hi @figma It would be a dream to be able to use absolute positioning for an element in a frame with autolayout. I keep finding myself trying to do cheeky shit with components but am limited by the model

As someone who's had Lyme disease and read extensively about it during my road to recovery, I'm aware of the concern related to communicable disease causing noncommunicable disease. It was a lightbulb moment for me. This article is packed with💡. Super interesting / terrifying
Jesus died for your sins and you will probably die one day from a chronic illness stemming from exposures to endemic pathogens that nobody ever warned you about. Happy Easter! My new essay: hardtowrite.com/pathogens/

“adult” ice cream, a relatively new category known for subdued sugar and noble flavors such as Earl Grey tea. nytimes.com/2021/08/13/busin… I’m in the store buying ice cream w no cream. It’s made of bananas. Come at me @hannahohearth ;)

The notion that weed is a problematic “drug” is rooted in racism. It’s insane that Team USA would disqualify one of this country’s most talented athletes over thinking that’s rooted in hatred. It’s something they should be ashamed of. Also if weed made you fast, I’d be FloJo.

At the beginning of what's expected to be a record-breaking wildfire season in California, a photo of a firefighter who has battled flames in Big Sur's Willow Fire is becoming a symbol of the foreboding 2021 wildfire season. sfgate.com/california-wildfi…

♥️ HN “Great resignation” wave coming for companies: news.ycombinator.com/item?id… > Real Translation: Covid has made people miserable in their jobs. The only way people can keep going is **idle fantasies about a nondescript future date where this suffering ends.** 👨‍🍳 idle fantasies
Satisfied by the tree node metaphor for descendant content / attributes. Feel like I'm seeing it more often in marketing and product design.
