Great talk.

Why did I think @bradfrost.com would speak about design or development or so?

Anyway, I guess I was wrong.

I stumbled upon this very elegant way of gender-neutralizing words in German using a version of an asterisk which fills the whole x-height. It would be fantastic if type designers would begin incorporating such a glyph into their fonts.

I converted an old 5K iMac to a monitor—that worked well and is a nice way to save an old device from the scrapyard. Also nice to save some money—you can find a 5K iMac for 300€ and could even sell the internals afterwards, cause you’ll only need display and housing.

Did they wrote by mistake “Version 16.0” in the first beta? :D

Always nice to read.

I was wondering when this post would come.

Ouuh, that’s very nice! I guess we have to celebrate the little things.

I kind of like the new cursor.

That is so sad!
It made me really happy to see well crafted Mac icons with clever ways to keep the squircle while having some elements overlap the edge.

a few well-chosen typos relaly make your prose seem like it wasn't written by AI

Some of the glassy, floating elements look really beautiful (e.g. in Maps), but for example the floating toolbar seems so out of place in most Mac apps.

The @letterformarchive.org is always a nice place to browse. :)

📣 The rush to add AI into everything is a big threat to privacy, as we've been saying.

MS Recall's screenshotting everything is a (not) great example of exactly why.

Nebula Sans — Nebula Sans What started as a simple design choice led to something much more meaningful. This is the story of Nebula Sans — a font built on principle, free to use for anyone who needs it.
