I find it odd that we don’t have more advanced shadows in interface design regarding falloff & blending methods

or physically based shadows I guess

the modern pursuit of minimalism is purely based on a misconception of what makes a great design great

an UNO card is incredibly minimal, hardly anyone ever describes it as that, bc that’s never what it’s been about, it’s about character, authenticity & integrity

windows is the only operating system that would manage to do something as stupid as randomly ask you unprompted whether you want to turn off notifications for their built in screenshot tool that works through notifications

what if imagination is just our brain emulating the signal it gets from our optic nerve

duckduckgo should just rename their company to Duck

duck has so much more aura

and they need a new logo

3D rendered duck, make it cuter, keep the lime bow tie, give it a magnifying glass

apparently the CEO already owns duck.com and it just redirects to duckduckgo so idk what they’re waiting for

the corner-shape spec is so sloppy

superellipse corner shapes have a very distinct squircle look and do not look like a neutral rounded rectangle with continuous corners at all, which I have to assume is what they were aiming for

I think AR is gonna have a much bigger impact on the future than AI

we just haven’t quite figured it out yet

it’s gonna go so much beyond movies and games

it’s an entirely new medium

it’s gonna take another 15 years but once it’s there it’s gonna quite literally be reality altering

god forbid you dual boot or else windows forgets what time it is unless you give them your address :)

at every waking moment you are completely surrounded by yourself

the world as you see it is not the real world but your very own reconstruction of the world based on your sensory input

it’s about as real as a video on a screen

there’s gotta be a better mechanism to charge individual airpods than these abysmal pins that don’t connect half of the time

humanity’s biggest loss is having percentages go from 0-100% instead of 120%

I’d be surprised if I make it past 50

we aren’t machines, machines are us

we made them in our image

car design peaked in the 50s everything looks like it’s made by novices now

it’s kind of wild that my body is dependent on temperature, I got like 5° of wiggle room or I drop dead

imagine a computer display that you can just walk up to and it slowly lights up & comes to life all while verifying it’s you through biometrics like a face scan

as soon as you’re there it’s there & ready

it’s crazy that computer infrastructure and the desktop interface basically hasn’t changed in the past 15 years

when did we start being okay with advertisements being any- and everywhere ?

in the digital AND physical world ?

why did we build our world to be popups, billboards and branding everywhere ?

I wish there were more products without logos on them

most of them are so tacky anyways

people afraid that "super AI will replace humans", I think if there does come a super AI into existence the much likelier case is it creating super humans to supersede us

gaussian blur is so 2010s

I need Apple to add lens blur to their UI so bad, our eyes don’t put a sheet of frosted glass in front of our eyes when something is out of focus, they defocus like a lens would (because we have lenses)
