Something tells me that it being promoted into a way of assessing “profile quality” by recruiters who have no design knowledge or time to talk to candidates has certainly not helped.— Ana (@dingbats__) September 18, 2022

The new project I designed arrives today - the Dynamic Island.

One thing I love about Abbott Elementary that I haven’t seen mentioned yet is the ethical, kind use of child performers on the show. I am an outlier who thinks kids should not act professionally, and on AE they barely do - they pretty much just act like regular kids— 1/5— Eliza Skinner (@elizaskinner) September 15, 2022

Oklahoma authorities found multiple human remains on a compound w/links to a violent white supremacist gang.

“The great @verge review of iPhone 14 Pro took a (literal) close look at the animations on a pixel level. Incredible. They also reveal that Apple uses special hardware-based subpixel antialiasing to make them extra smooth. Which other company does this? https://t.co/70c2SACDAj”

“I talked to a super smart 20 year old this week. All the potential in the world, but had a major major flaw in his thinking. This flaw is becoming the most common mistake I am seeing young people make early in their career. Let's break it down:”
