There's also Little Big Details (http://littlebigdetails.com/) which does something similar.

A lot of great little tricks are included here, many that I never noticed until this pointed them out and now I can think of multiple places where specific things are in use. Bookmarking this for future design work.

It's teaching you how it's a good idea to have a 404 page which links to an article explaining more.

Is there something like this for the physical world?

This is a great guide/collection! It does a great job for those who know the basics to step up the game, thank you so much.

However, something notable that IMHO is missing is accessibility. This is clearly a DESIGN guide and should NOT be treated as a UI/UX guide. Some of the color in the page for instance don't pass the WCAG 2 AA guidelines, which is a really flexible one, let alone the WCAG 2 AAA (a more strict one). The mid-gray text over white background looks great; but it's quite bad for reading.

Well I'm dumb. Didn't even think that it was an article and that I should try scrolling/clicking.

Perhaps 'The Design of Everyday Things' by Donald Norman?
