Then the hallucinated research is published in an article which is then cited by other AI research, continuing the push the false information until it’s hard to know where the lie …

We also have more staggered school breaks throughout the year. With two weeks off after every term, many more public holidays, and the ~2 month summer break there are a lot more op…

I wonder if this difference is always why Americans don't put butter on sandwiches or consider just bread and butter a completely normal snack. If it doesn't taste like anything I …

I believe it was saying that Qantas was the only Australian-owned airline operating long haul flights during the pandemic.

Australian public schools are funded by state and federal governments, not local. So all public schools tend to be pretty similar. On the flip side the government also partially fu…

In my experience, other countries don't view themselves that way, and it's mostly seen as an Americanism (I'm not American)

I think it was the sunsetting of Google Reader that triggered the downfall. I don’t think I ever cared about push notifications for feeds. When you have your morning coffee, open u…

The US is the only country that uses F. It has nothing to do with speaking English. Every other English speaking country uses celsius.

Weekly or fortnightly pay is common in Australia, so talking about it as weeks of pay made sense to me. I don't think they really even use the term "fortnight" in the US. Every tec…

Design systems alone don't really solve for this. Design would need to look at the experience across the entire app. A simplified example of how the UX can break down if frontend t…

Every design is meant to be used. The amount of space needed is relative to the problem.

I can imagine a world where this would be useful, being able to drop something in as easy as a element seems fine. It seems useful for UI primitives, like a dialog, tooltip etc, th…

I don’t understand the push to make userland component abstractions into native primitives. It’s perfectly fine for the browser to just implement low level primitives for framework…

They never said that all 1.0 use cases were covered now. They promised that eventually they will have use case parity and then they’ll deprecate 1.0.

How do you define "fluff"? If you think design (how the story is told) or quality (how easy it is to understand) doesn't matter, then I strongly disagree.

I feel like I need to point out that in my experience demographic personas like this aren't used by product designers. I've seen marketing use them. Not designers. Designers often …

I don't think it's trying to be a definitive reference. It seems more like those posters you put around the office to remind you of things you value or you think are important. Eve…

That's not really the point we were making and I'm not sure you have a correct understanding of UX, as you're conflating UX and visual design. There's no pressure in the market to …

The reaction on Hacker News compared to the reaction on Designer News is great. I think the problem people are struggling with is that it's a site created mostly for fun and deligh…

All it does it transform into a tree of objects, https://gist.github.com/anthonyshort/5e9112a9ded7c8fc0f20 , which is annoying to write out by hand and HTML is familiar. I hated it…

We're still using it on some of our projects, but we've found that no matter how simple we make data-binding it still leads to a mess of event bindings and state management. The or…

You could also just export from each of the requires in that manifest.js file you have there. Although there's no real benefit of doing that over using the manifest other than it's…

You'd use a component.json to lock it down for an app. The inline versioning is really just a way to quickly write code and get something up and running. Manifests are just a pain …

But if you're at that point you probably have your own private git hosting somewhere too (or just private repos somewhere else). When there is support added for different remotes y…
