Buried in a cabinet in our bedroom, we have this CD and Cassette Player.

We (almost) never use it.

And it has a giant "MP3" on it, announcing an important feature?

There is a parallel here for our moment as product people.

Don't know what it is, but there is a parallel.

@beflagrant.com on your new case study for Contributed Systems (nice work!), the Visit link isn't clickable on desktop widths (overlay on top, blocking?)

We were sold on the idea that learning is a solo thing.

Today I'm launching ReadWith, my pushback on that.

I had been yearning to read deeply with others, and the app allowed this with a new mechanism:

Others' notes appear as you add your own, free from spoilers.

Tell me if I'm wrong, but I think Nusii is probably the kind of software that's a quality of life improvement over duck-taping a process manually.

If true, then a before-and-after right at the top would make your pitch clear.

Like Intercom's OG page:

That's not quite how the spine of a hardcover book is supposed to be modelled

Any of you like this effect?

1. Hitting "Rearrange" on the book page
2. Enable MagLev 😂

I'm going to lead the next cohort of the rails.builders accountability group, taking over from Rich Steinmetz.

Starts this Thursday Feb 12, until May 7.
DM me if interested.

1. I consider myself in the camp Justin describes here in the screenshot.

2. I dont concretely know how else to use this edge than by creating products and sell them. I would not join an established company by offering this mix of skills. Why would I? Why would they hire me? I don’t understand.

More like it.

The original one was funky, this one is plain, clean, and obvious.

But... I like this one a little less, for some reason.

Not quite there...

Giving the biog some view transitions:

Just dug up an old design for a site a buddy of mine and I were working on in 2001

Ever wonder how in Star Trek, nobody’s on their PADD, doom scrolling?

It’s a loaded question, because it’s a show.

I wonder, because I think it might have something to do with the adventure they’re on, and the discipline and the hurry to make it happen.

You made it through the Academy!

Anybody have any idea what to do to fix bottom sticky elements in iOS Safari 26?

I'd like to either hide whatever comes after this bottom sticky bar (it doesn't scroll behind Safari's new liquid bar), or position it to the absolute bottom (below the new liquid bar)

safe-area-inset-bottom is no use

Putting the whole computer board in the bump, the antenna, everything...

...that must have been a fun set of eureka moments for the designers

You know, y'all who are trashing Safari...

How is it the hanging-punctuation is like this in 2025?

What's going on, Internet?

Fun!

You get a lot for free with Turbo Frames.

The Cancel link targets the right data-turbo-frame and boom.

RE: View Transitions and Turbo...

Anybody run into this problem?

In Chrome, the view transition gets skipped from a Turbo Frame render.

Works in Safari.
