I guess the only spark of hope to be found in that is the fact that it doesn’t make sense to us because we aren’t wired to think of human lives as acceptable collateral damage in the quest to get richer, and I would rather be that kind of person no matter how painful it makes living in this world

it solves an incredibly specific problem for a very small group of people:

if you use Scrivener on Windows or Mac but don't have an iPhone, and want to capture your ideas directly into your .scriv file, this app let's you do so

Can AI write accessibility specs? I wrote a prompt to help me write accessibility specs for components. Then had an existential crisis.

Really enjoyed this post by @gerireid.com

It felt accurate for what I've experienced from designers coming to me with specs written by AI.

Designers may learn what they should include, but the specs tend to lack the contextual awareness or accuracy required.

still to come:
- video reveal footer (want to shoot something in a slim landscape aspect ratio to fit in)

using cursor to ship lots of fun interactions to my website:

1. the motto marquee in the footer that updates when you click on it
2. the photo gallery that updates every time you visit
3. the hero text that updates to include my name after a few seconds
