PSA. One of the best alternatives to Adobe CC, called Affinity, is on sale through 1/24. Only 100$ one time payment for all three apps (Designer, Photo, Publisher) for Win, Mac, and iOS. It's a steal! #design #UXdesign #Affinity affinity.serif.com/en-us/

Did you know that the Persian scholar of medicine, Ibn Sina (980-1037) suspected some diseases were spread by microorganisms. To prevent human-to-human contamination, he came up with a method of isolating people for 40 days. A thread on Ibn Sina & his impact on modern science…

Bye, Twitter. 🥺 The tipping point was having to pay for verification, when we feel we add a lot of value. We also feel solidarity with NPR, and share concerns about Twitter’s direction. You can find us on the blog and TikTok. If we join another platform, we’ll send word here. 🫡
@1eclecticmind @Imposter_Edits You say "we should let people price housing with the market" but then we also push a lot of policies like single family zoning, Sq ft minimums, lot size minimums, parking minimums, etc that inherently prevent lower cost competition from entering th market. Can't have it both ways
Nice gift from 🇰🇬. Keeping my head warm in Nashville! @sandjar many thanks
*Storytime* My daughter (20) has been playing football for 15 years. She joined a team of good friends - 6 v 6 - for the indoor season. Her entire team is Black and Brown Muslim women. All of them played competitive soccer. Some wear hijab some don't. They are a VERY good team.
Face ID is the dumbest, worst supposed upgrade ever. I hate it.
It’s perfectly fine to lament that Élongue is firing ppl who know how to keep Twitter running and so forth, but also maybe consider that software services are not elegant “algorithms” carrying out clear goals but hot messes of tar and duct tape which barely work.

@ibogost I've seen nobody suggesting it isn't clunky. But I've seen massive amounts of people grossly overstating the difficulty, and right now the only person whose interests that serves is EM.
@ibogost It does have a lot of friction, just like the early internet. That friction keeps impatient people away, and that’s fine.
