    I love it conceptually, but I can't get past the abject failure of the right edges of boxes to be properly aligned. Because of a mishmash of non-fixed-width characters (emoji, etc.…

    For me, the best kind of "moat" (tbh I hate that word, since it specifically implies needing to design (...scheme...) and engineer some kind of user lock-in, which is inherently us…

    The Mint website is quite lovely! Props for making something so nice and pleasant and clean and easily navigable and informative.

    This is beautiful! I love this so much, as it makes it so simple and intuitive to drop into a sense of curiosity, exploration, serendipity, scanning around, seeing what catches the…

    I hate everything about this. We've done such a disservice to the next generations by giving them the most dumbed down interfaces to grow up with that they never develop an intuiti…

    This is what always frustrates me: why do companies need to bother with "pathological late stage optimisations" at all, if not for perverse incentives in the fundamental economic a…

    I've been to different types of (quite excellent!) fusion restaurants in both Peru and Colombia, not to mention multiple cities in Mexico. Good, creative cuisine that draws from mu…
