For web dev I always recommend people set them to always show!

Otherwise people don't notice they have scrollable containers all over their website

I'm in one of the most remote towns in Japan and they're still putting this gobshite on the telly

Same here, it ends up getting distracted by the wrong files or fixing things that are unrelated.

We came to Japan to find some snow and it definitely delivered! 😄☃️

found out we were dropping 30% of users on our sign up page which seems quite excessive!

so I redesigned it this week to just show all the oauth buttons (before user had to enter email first).

And also created better 'remember-me' functionality so that users know how they signed in last time

That would be awesome

The icon thing was a bit of an extra dunk because it's so silly, the main points to me are;

- rounded corners make resizing windows a test of patience
- icons instead of text
- hidden scrollbars
- glass stuff/gross shadows completely break the visual hierachy

macOS Tahoe is such a ridiculous step backwards for user interface design

Look at it vs Aqua (which is 25 years old btw)

What we we're promised:

What we got:
> Your job is now supervising AI doing the same shit job you were doing but it's doing it worse

Merry Christmas from Chiang Mai! 🇹🇭🎄🎉

A bit different to last year lol ⛵🐟🌊

Absolutely right! It's just the new Xmas flavour haha

my toxic trait is that I will always buy the weirdest flavour chips

It's Thursday so that means it's the meeting of the Bangkok people who ship stuff! 🚀

We changed intros to 10:30 this week which was much better for the lazy Bangkok people 😂

Soon we'll do demos, then spicy food and beers 🍻

When the 10th customer in a row asks if they can still get the Black Friday discount 💀

Completely empty office at 10am, which was supposed to be when we started

Busy office by midday!

This is our weekly session of founders who ship in Bangkok - Hackumvit! 🚀

We have a morning standup where we share what were shipping today, then focus! At 5pm we demo. Then we go for spicy food + beers together 🍻

But I've got to get used to no-one being able to do anything before 11am here 😆

yeah that's probably why, xyz was *really* cheap with no restrictions for a while

how's your deliverability lol

🚨 PSA - before you buy a cute new gTLD for your project, bear in mind that the cute ones are being overwhelmingly used for phishing scams

It will be harder to build email reputation with .xyz .shop etc - you'll go to spam

Always better to stick with .com

Yeah pre-ordered! We only realised you could do it yesterday 😂

Huge round sourdough and two ice coffees

Last night we ordered on Grab minutes before going to sleep, and woke up to a freshly baked sourdough this morning 😋🍞

Bangkok is the best 🇹🇭♥️

I like them! They got so much engagement on X that people started faking them and shit

I'm already bored of Black Friday emails, so I've made a blocklist for any matching emails in leavemealone.com so they don't land in my inbox 💪

AND after Cyber Monday I'll just automatically unsubscribe from all of them 🤪🙅‍♂️

Yeah it's a bit of a pain to add people

That sounds cool

The MRR posts started off with genuine excitement for each other. We were all trying to make it. But then the group gets bigger and it's used as engagement bait

Always am! 🙂

Hopefully!

Starter Packs were such a killer idea

A have a few friends who tried to get started with X and they always had the same complaint - my feed is full of garbage and people I don't care about!

Now I can send then a starter pack of cool people and they can start with a curated feed already! 👍

Same! It's what #buildinpublic used to be filled with. But then everything became about engagement and the actual interesting stuff became rarer

How do we keep the #buildinpublic scene here from being overwhelmed by the same engagement bait posts as on X?

What's the best way to share and celebrate each others wins (like in the old days) but without every post becoming a screenshot of an MRR chart? 💀
