Our rich, straight Dutch friend was invited to a meeting with HR after he checked the “Have you ever been discriminated against?” box and listed sexuality, social class, and ethnicity. HR explained to him that this was not how the question was intended to be interpreted. However,

If this ends up happening, the Xiaomi cars will become a serious contender for my next daily driver.

Didn’t know this laptop, but it’s a great example of why you don’t need to copy Apple to make a well designed product. I’m getting bored of the repetitiveness of Apple. I’m never excited anymore about buying a new iPhone or MacBook. I’m a prisoner of their ecosystem.

A few weeks ago I was reminiscing with another designer about Tweetie 2 and the subsequent Twitter for iPad app. Groundbreaking design.

I remember this design, the “home screen” grid being a breakthrough in app design at the time. Mobile design used to be so fun.

How has every single game company not modeled their drop programs after @tarkov They are best in class when it comes to drops and usually 1-2 times a year some creators make yearly salary’s in days, and most have their best weeks of the year because of these events. TAKE NOTES

R26 is a great name, and that color scheme is going to look smashing on the grid. 2000s McLaren vibes.

It's hard not to root for Williams. A team on the rise with great personalities (James Vowles, Carlos, Alex) and now the best branding of the grid. Weeums!

The best redesign of all time. So glad they brought the iconic logo back.

A new name and new logo for Williams in 2026! 🔘 Atlassian Williams Racing ➡️ Atlassian Williams F1 Team. 🔘 The existing 'W' logo will be replaced by a modern reimagining of Frank Williams' iconic 'Forward W' - which was first introduced in the team's founding year in 1977.

$SHOP be going insane lately. So glad I'm still holding after all those years, and will continue to do so in the long term. Recently did another deep-dive into the product, and it's insane how much the product progressed in the last 4 years. The polish is through the roof 👏

I don't understand the people that "don't understand why he's doing this". The guy is 25 years old. This is his last chance to make the jump to F1. If this fails, I'm sure there will be plenty of IndyCar teams that will sign him. Why not take the risk. I think it's exciting.

The utter irony of Putin and Trump meeting soon in Budapest to jointly seal Ukraine’s fate should not be lost on anybody. This is the very same city where the US, the UK, and Russia came together 31 years ago to give Ukraine ironclad assurances that its territorial integrity

Late season VLN races don’t have the same quality of field than the races before the 24h. The reality is that most teams and drivers only care about the 24h and the preparation before it, not the championship. Perfect environment for Max and Lulham to get their feet wet though.

Two things are true at once: 1. Congrats to Max, that’s very a cool accomplishment for him. 2. What an absolute indictment on the quality of the rest of that field, and I’m sure more than a bit embarrassing for the regulars.

I’m pretty new to the whole golf thing (playing and watching), but man, the Ryder Cup is one of the most fun sporting events I’ve ever seen.

Today’s “Product Designer” would have never made it in the Photoshop era. We use to have a single file for EACH SCREEN and they’re here crying about you can’t design without an auto layout button, haha.
