@OomoriEs my daughter and I are big fan of Shiba Inu Rooms! The book is not only mega cute but also give us an excuse to discuss difficult topics about growing up. Thank you 🙏

My daughter also loves drawing Mayo, her favorite character from the book.

The Minnesota department of transportation ran a snowplow naming contest and the results are v good

Think about all the brands that through their checkmark load the Twitter brand. If that mark changes its meaning to "this sucker paid!" you completely invert that magnetism and make those brands look cheap and slightly desperate.

@JohnnyPea This lib was written specifically for an app & I found that outside of it, there were unresolved issues... I've heard good things about this svelte lib: https://t.co/j2YEOkZwav

Wrote a little thing about a svelte drag component I'm working on https://t.co/zX6Ivelxok

@JohnnyPea The code is on github, but I have stopped maintaining it for over a year now... Hope it's still helpful! https://t.co/hFAr2ZkTVc

I urge you to stop what you’re doing and feast your eyes on @simeydotme’s mesmerising “Pokemon Cards”

One of the most mind-blowing CSS effects I’ve ever seen

@cullend @TwitterSupport @TwitterBlue @mgsiegler @DotDotJames Better yet, I think QT should ONLY display the version of the tweet at the time it was quoted. If the tweet is then edited, it should indicate so.

@futurefabric I've been properly enjoying your newsletter, thank you for making it! Since you mentioned Knot Word in today's edition, I thought I'd share this wordle-like game I've been very addicted to: https://t.co/wZs1mP68sD

I renamed all icons to match V1, so you can use Figma's Swap Library to upgrade the icons.

I also added Vue / React import path to each. @steveschoger I would be happy to add the export path in the official file if you let me 😜!

[Derek Nguyen @DerekNguyen10]

For design folks who wants to upgrade their heroicons to v2, I made a v1-compatible Figma file here 🫠 https://t.co/6hnsMm0R9z

[Steve Schoger @steveschoger]

We just launched Heroicons v2.0! 🎉

🤩 All new look! 260 icons redrawn from scratch
🤏 Thinner 1.5px stoke
✨ New 24px solid set

Available as first-party React and Vue libraries and official Figma components.

Check 'em out 👉🏻

Dear people implementing dark/theme for their sites, please don't forget to make 'auto' an option as well!

[Derek Nguyen @DerekNguyen10]

@robbmcm @AirfoilStudio @friktion_labs Did you have a hand in this? Looks great!

[Derek Nguyen @DerekNguyen10]

@kevinrwhitley @SergiiKirianov Thanks so much for sharing @kevinrwhitley, best of luck if you decide to try again and / or do something else entirely! :)

[Derek Nguyen @DerekNguyen10]

@kevinrwhitley @SergiiKirianov oooo if possible would you share why you'd pass? What was the pros and cons you considered?

[Derek Nguyen @DerekNguyen10]

@kmelve @MozDevNet I like how the Twitter handle almost spelt it out

[Derek Nguyen @DerekNguyen10]

I hate this, no other services does this
