Broken
Toolspace
https://letterror.com/articles/toolspace.html

Very interesting article about the idea that designer should make (hone) their own tools. Some quotes:

It is precisely the task of designers (graphic, industrial or whatever) to discover new possibilities.

Limitations and demands imposed by a client are easier to accept than the arbitrary limitations of your digital tools.

After all, programming graphic programs is much too important to leave to programmers.

Explorers, and that is what they are, do not want to do the same thing twice.

Contra Ptacek's Terrible Article On AI — Ludicity
https://ludic.mataroa.blog/blog/contra-ptaceks-terrible-article-on-ai/?1

A few extra arguments against LLMs. Mostly a personal answer/rant to an earlier article, and mostly pointing out flaws in the argumentation. For instance, that something was bad 6 months ago doesn't mean it’s good now. The same argument was used 6 months ago by the same people. Comparing people to large organisations when it comes to copyright Anonymous examples The fact that something gets attention doesn’t mean it’s as good as stated: see apps, crypto, etc. The fact that CEOs want us to use it, same thing, and even worse, because CEOs etc

Why and How to Write Minimal and Valid HTML, a Link Guide · Jens Oliver Meiert
https://meiert.com/blog/minimal-and-valid-html/

A list of resources about minimal(ist) HTML. As with all minimalism, in a way it continues removing stuff until it is broken, and then it stops, which is one step too late. It should stop before it is broken. In this case: keep HTML readable for humans when viewing source.

Observations about shrinking time, the idea that the computer didn’t give us more time, as promised, but instead filled our lives with micro tasks. We should leave the clock at the door in many situations, like the art/design classroom
