This sounds interesting I haven't heard of that until now - thanks for the suggestion!

Yes, typing on mobile - ty!

I've been building a tool aimed at better web annotations for teams and AI collaboration at https://viewall.io/

Having worked with web facing teams there are always vastly different methods any individual uses to capture their feedback. If you or anyone you know on Mac that has 100s of screenshots on their desktop, this is aimed at bridging the gap.

Clipboards are optimized with context for LLM markdown ingestion and for use in work suites like Jira/Confluence.

Still fairly early, but I've been using the tool to help build the app itself which has been an enlightening experience.

You'd be hesitant to trust a brand if it can't keep consistent styling. Branding helps users identify a brand and believe it or not the aesthetics of a brand make a great deal of impact on consumers.

As others have said, your point comes across as "let's remove design who cares" because design and human computer interaction roles stopped where your understanding ends. Everything looks the same to you after all (it doesn't, you just haven't noticed it affecting your decision making).

The common recommendation I've seen is to use your network. If it's something you're building then ideally you know what problem you're solving and who has that problem. Then getting those early users you know with that problem involved to test and give feedback, you can then optimize further for that audience and need. From there those users will likely share with those that they know within their own network having the same issue. There's a few books on it like Tribes by Godin (though not everyone agrees of course).

Other than that there are a few places that highlight product launches like product hunt, etc. to gain initial usage. Probably check for niche groups having the issue and reach out organically - no one likes spam.

This is just what I've gathered from others, I'm in the beginning phase of this myself :-)

I believe max-snippet removes suggested text from the SERPs but would still display the page meta description as per usual.

Love the demo video and post but for some reason this doesn't seem to work for me. Running Chrome on Android 14

Not just you it's a required feature of accessible sites following ADA/WCAG.

This still sounds like a "Walmart" company town

IIRC this was one of the reasons the Delorean manual recommended using gasoline to clean the steel panels

I can't tell if you're serious or not, but tables are an absolute mess to handle layout.

Email clients handle the CSS code to varying degree of support when wrapping responsively so even if you think your layout looks good with wrapping it's because CSS influenced the layout in whatever particular client you are using. If client doesn't support CSS or the CSS properties you've used: jank email. Email unfortunately requires you to code like 1999 in this regard.

Browsers having CSS as standard and relatively up to date is a very good thing. Tables that aren't representation of tabular data are a mess.

Same. I'm on mobile. Maybe iphone only or it's down already?

As far as reputation goes it looks like Caesars paid the $10m ransom after having the loyalty member db exposed with drivers licenses and social security numbers. They also have no real guarantee the data stolen will be deleted.

Still might be better for them being a "quiet" incident as opposed to disrupting operations like mgm.

Idk much about the situation but in a few of that guys posts he made prior to being raided he talked about sniping potusa from afar with time, place in mind, pictures of him with rifles, and threats to answer FBI with guns. Afaik obese scooter bound people can still aim a rifle from afar. He basically provoked a situation and was treated as credible threat based on his own actions.

Doesn't part of this update also make fingerprinting users even more robust with webGPU? Aka you don't need cookies because we can see who you are without them based on your machines unique specs

This doesn't add up. CSS grid, flex box, etc all do the "holy grail" layout with a couple lines. The tables mess that was early www was and remains an absolute mess of markdown to maintain for layout. Semantics and accessibility are practically out the window with table.

HCI dictates how humans use interfaces and with that comes many defacto reasons why a plain text page does not solve the problems users want to solve. Do you not think websites test into the optimal performing layouts and content distribution? If it worked better, we'd all be using it (it doesn't).

On Mac I just use CMD+space to pull up spotlight which very quickly opens anything matching what you type from there. Usually within a single keystroke after CMD+space pulls up the desired app and typically takes under a second. It does a lot of other neat things as well but I use that feature daily.

Windows is similar in just pressing the windows key allows you to type the name of an app or file but in my experience is much slower and inaccurate compared to OSX.

It's easier for me to remember the name of the app I want than that+the key binding with muscle memory I've then had to set.

I have a 2008 Mac Pro with 64GB ram installed ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

When this was first posted on HN it seemed to work without issue - however since then I have attempted to use it on numerous occasions and get a server error, or just a blank page with the window "is the paywall gone? Y/n".

That didn't take long to reverse: "Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Your account has been re-enabled"

I was surprised the list has a couple affiliates of sites I used to run as a kid. It was one of the first ways I would navigate within a network of sites without having to use an often clunky search browsing experience at the time.

Definitely nostalgia inducing.

FCC doesn't seem to be on consumer side - at least until Pai and his ilk are out unfortunately. They showed that with NN repeal despite mass public disapproval.

I created Treets ( https://treets.org ), a basic shop that currently plants 5 trees in areas of need around the world for every item sold. The challenge was finding the right partners also focused on sustainability from the fabric to the continued maintenance and oversight of trees.

The issue I saw was many companies were claiming to be eco-conscious with planting trees but behind the scenes their product was harmful and their tree planting was merely donating ~$1 from $70+ items. Currently Treets continues to plant more trees than it costs to operate and I'll continue to run it so long as that holds true.

Opera has had this feature for years and features more playback controls than FF. It seems many features start on Opera then get "invented" in other browsers afterwards.

That fault lies solely with the designers and developers of those software.

"Yeah but they didn't know what they were doing and didn't want to learn" is a more appropriate take.

You can think of it this way: your neighbor nextdoor made a soapbox car. Does that qualify them to be your mechanic? Probably not.

TFA literally says don't use full screen modals, ever. I disagreed with examples of that not being necessarily relevant with the way today's applications can work.

Important from the NNGroup article you linked even demonstrates great modal usage and states "3. Modal dialogs can be used to fragment a complex workflow into simpler steps." and "4. Use modal dialogs to ask for information that, when provided, could significantly lessen users’ work or effort."

That's important - modals are not just intrusive pop-ups as many designers and others in this thread have decided that they are. Again, every element can be used inappropriately but that doesn't mean the elements are to blame.

> Can’t teach this stuff

There is literally a field of science called Human-Computer Interaction that teaches this stuff.

The key design principle overlooked here is Progressive Disclosure[1], which modals and dialogs can be very good at delivering.

Progressive disclosure retains user focus on a single task as opposed to showing everything at once. Accordions have similar function to modals and dialogs but adding further task controls to an already complex interface isn't always the best solution.

The author goes on to state that even full screen modals are bad, but what difference does the user see? If done well the user should still be able to use the browser back button, escape key, etc to navigate out. In modern applications, pages can transition from one to the next without a "full page load" -is that also bad for some reason?

Think of many popular mobile apps like Instacart, Doordash, etc that allow a user to dive into categories that slide on top of the existing content to give further controls; is that not ok?

Every element in the DOM can be applied inappropriately but that doesn't shift the blame to the elements themselves. One could argue an entire dedicated site that only uses modals based on the misuse of illegible fonts would be about as apropros.

For CO2 removal the article says they "can remove carbon dioxide and produce breathable oxygen at a rate equivalent to a hundred trees from the surface area of just a single tree".

Trees sequester ~48 lbs of CO2 per year.[1][2] So 48*100 = ~4800lbs CO2 removed per year for this project. As others have said I'm interested to see if they can do it cost effectively.
