I am sorry, but I can’t force myself to love new Figma cursors. What are those half-pixel offsets in the arrow? Why is the finger broken?
I like the idea in general, but why people who aim at nostalgia always do half-assed job recreating it?
 It’s always source to destination, from -> to, before -> after. Also known as the most natural order, with timeline going to the right. In this picture it’s deliberately confusing because they call source “target”. Link that you create is a target. Don’t thank me

 @nikitonsky unfortunately in many assembly languages the Intel syntax (wrong order) is used. And it always makes me cry. @nikitonsky On Windows it is the opposite actually 😅 https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/windows-commands/mklink mklink link target where target is the source. TIL: turn off “Smart zoom” in Trackpad settings to make right click instant (by default it has ~500ms delay) IT IS SO MUCH BETTER via @tandav

  @nikitonsky @tandav Delay must be in certain apps only? I have smart zoom enabled and in all the things I tested, right click was instant. In which app do you experience the delay? So I was searching for “creative typography” the other day to prove a point in an argument, and thing I saw made me quite sad. Out of 30 results, at least 10 are clearly AI-generated. Can you spot which ones? My guess would be these ten. So we kind of already live in a world where you have to filter out machine-generated crap from real human work. And it’ll probably only get worse from here

 @nikitonsky Выпуск про дату-время-таймзоны вышел на Ютубе! Если вы еще не, как раз САМОЕ ВРЕМЯ посмотреть! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yd44P3DUrp8 So that’s why I was still seeing furry ads in Search! (joking, I don’t use Google Search, Chrome and use uBlock Origin, of course) https://www.npr.org/2024/04/01/1242019127/google-incognito-mode-settlement-search-history Monthly open-source/lifestyle report: March 2024 https://www.patreon.com/posts/transparency-101584602 If anyone wants to get commit rights to open-source repo and maintain it for two years before trying adding a backdoor, https://github.com/tonsky/rum is up for grabbing. Asking for a friend Thanks to a fried who challenged me, dark mode on tonsky.me now hides pictures properly. It also remembers state between pages and glows in the dark! Check it out:  @nikitonsky not to mention that the older one was much more secure as it clearly shows a padlock @nikitonsky nooo you must navigate at least 3 dozen menus located in random places scattered all across the site to do the same thing you used to do on the landing @nikitonsky  @nikitonsky I love the idea. 😍 I would much prefer if this was called `infix-math`. The sane/insane, normal/crazy framing is unnecessary and hurtful for people with actual mental disabilities. New post: Daylight Saving Time is a perfect test for UI designer https://tonsky.me/blog/dst/  Самсунговские микроволновки серии Solo: https://www.samsung.com/my/microwave-ovens/solo/microwave-oven-grill-ms23f300eek/ - один кружок время микроволнирования (запускается автоматически)  @nikitonsky That’s easy: press the left button three times, hold it for two more seconds, but no longer than four, press the right button without releasing the left, then after another two seconds, release the left b… wait, what?! 😅   @nikitonsky It seems they want to completely ruin the user experience. Same with YouTube, btw.  It is the second time I measure Zed typing latency and second time I find their claims to be the fastest completely unsubstantiated. Sad. People might believe it and get excited for the wrong reason  @nikitonsky I wonder who's ever felt the need for less typing latency in a local editor. The claim is not only unsubstantiated, but also useless, IMO. Typical marketing hype. Wow, Grumpy.Website just crossed 1500 posts mark. Thanks computers for never getting better and steadily providing material every day, I guess? |
