@palmerj3 Nothing like advice from an out-of-touch rich dude. Will be great to see other bros follow this trend now that he's announced it to a hoard of double-digit IQ listeners

@jsngr Time is a flat circle. This man is currently living a calm existence in 2001

@DegesVojta @usgraphics Based on his phrasing of "his" color grade, that is the creative tool he created. My point is, rather than exploring settings/tools/methods, so many people just want the answer. Much more understanding and appreciation comes from experimenting and actually creating

@ben_issen @lucchaissac If this platform only rewarded quality, it'd be a very different place

@OrdinaryInds It's a great feature. I also like how the only navbar element that consistently shows a notification bubble is Grok - almost like they need to justify their decision to make that product.

After 1.5 years of daily posts, I'm going to post a little less frequently.

It's been a nice challenge that I posed for myself, but isn't as fulfilling as of late.

Here's a very small segment (256 images) of the 547 consecutive days of content.

@beatinic @figma FWIW, thumbnail is likely a rendered image asset (JPG or PNG) as opposed to the live environment that is creating the shader effect in real-time

Some closeup details of an AI workflows wireframe from a few years back - long before everyone was pitching their new AI agent.

A later version was designed to accommodate multiple layers of steps, and be able to fit within marketing materials and pitch decks.

It got a bit messy so it was subsequently reined back in.

On today's episode of drawing vectors, we got a bit noisy.

Hi @Apple, could you please recognize that the video experience for live sports is different than TV/movies?

Each time I mute #FridayNightBaseball, I'd like to not have to also turn off subtitles. Just keep the setting enabled, it's quite simple.

@AnaArsonist Yep, also there can be random visual bugs when using Google Fonts version

In iOS 26, if you have both a timer and stopwatch running, only the timer is shown in the Dynamic Island.

I wish I could change the priority to show the Stopwatch instead - whether through settings or swiping between the functions.

Anyone know if iOS 27 allows this?

Software is a small portion of my design interests.

In addition to decreasing the file size significantly vs a standard SVG image asset, creating the background with repeating shapes makes it possible to randomize per row animations.

Still tweaking it. This effect will only be called on hover or similar intentional user action.
