AddBrrrr, date in javascript is even worse than I thought. Ridiculous.
Interesting case where a new feature is added to software because chatgpt tells people it exists while it doesn’t
Being lazy is a good idea, and I need to look into view transitions.
Bovendien is het moeilijk voor te stellen hoe radicale gelijkwaardigheid eruitziet, het is onbekend terrein. Ik weet ook niet hoe een wereld zonder uitbuiting eruit zou zien, maar de huidige wereldorde leidt tot oorlog en geweld, dus het is het onderzoeken waard.
Google AI feature in its search results is really bad.
Excellent lecture about resisting AI.
I want to conclude by emphasising that the proposition that the role of the university is to resist AI is not simply a defence of pedagogy, but an affirmation of the social importance of imagination.
Very, very long piece about stuff around the disability pride flag, some sort of weird conflict it seems to have with an earlier disability flag. Some interesting observations about what it really means to design with a community as well.
The author writes about junktime, which I think is an even higher step from kairos -> chronos -> junktime. Who was it again who said that Kairos is village life, Chronos is city life, controlled by the clock, and then Junktime might be online life, controlled by ever presence.

Depressing stats about using ridiculous amounts of energy
Liquid glass is bad.

Wow, an incredible "book" about how digital things work. Can’t wait to see more articles.
One of many people warning for a bubble
Another super relevant set of guidelines to work with
I don’t agree with this quote, as someone who uses code as a design tool, but …
But readable type, intuitive navigation, and smart color choices start in design, not in code. Developers build the product, but we set the foundation. It’s time to own that responsibility.
… but I really like the website and I think it is a great idea for a book.
Mooie kritische benadering van een krankzinnige status quo. Wegen moeten weg!

A well informed rant against rutger bregman and his school for moral ambition, a powerwashing school for the elite, for them to feel good, but not to solve the issues they cause irl.
