Dostoevsky understood the Devil like no one else

He captured his evil in one of the most chilling scenes in all literature

Here’s what he wrote, and what it reveals about Satan and the “unforgivable sin…”🧵

@pants Absolute master @pants - Can you do one of a guy trying to pull a perfect paper towel sheet off the roll, but piffing it? I can almost see it in your style.

Reminder: Tolkien hated Disney.

He called them "hopelessly corrupted" and knew they'd ruin any story they touched.

Why? Tolkien's storytelling philosophy was profoundly different… (thread) 🧵

Hope everyone has a very, very tight weekend. Please, if you can, try your best to be an Agent of Stoke. A Prince of Pump. Shit rules. Even if things may be feeling kinda lame. Get stoked. Chill. Let go of the BS if it comes for you and tries to lay claim upon your peace.

And because there’s nothing happiness abhors more than analysis, the very next moment it deserted him. He could feel that as well, the tiny dent it left in his soul. #knausgaard

a pm proposes moving a button 5px to the left.

the design team schedules a “design intent” meeting to review pixel spacing guidelines, which references a 96-slide internal deck titled “the philosophy of alignment.

afterward, accessibility raises concerns about button discoverability under different screen reader settings, flagging it for usability testing.

performance engineers jump in, warning that subtle css changes could trigger cascading reflows across entire design system, impacting core web vitals.

legal then demands a patent review, citing a lawsuit the company lost in 2012 over a similar button shift.

data privacy gets involved, worried that this minor change could somehow affect “user consent flows” under gdpr.

before moving forward, a product strategy sync is held with vp-level stakeholders to ensure “design language alignment” with future roadmaps.

finally, a cross-functional task force is created to oversee button movements company-wide, chaired by a design ops director. the task force’s first deliverable: a quarterly report on the risks of pixel misalignment.

the button doesn’t move.

Maybe my favorite scene ever from a TV show.

Major Briggs tells his son about his vision.
