I've got my eye on product design, tech and two-wheelers. Bangalore.
My #uiux hot take is that scroll-triggered animation is mostly garbage on desktop.
You often have to rewind your scroll because you missed reading some text, or awkardly finish scrolling down just to see the last few frames of an animation.
It doesn't make sense to port that over from mobile.

I only took a handful of photos with my mirrorless camera on a recent trip to Vietnam, and I now regret not shooting more with it.
These examples aren't great photos in terms of composition, but the results are far more colour accurate and detailed than anything my phone can capture.

I find it pretty nuts that my 2021 Asus gaming laptop can run stunning titles like Horizon Forbidden West at 1440p - looks great on a 32-inch monitor.
Props to great art styles, game optimisation, and PC hardware (Ryzen 9 + RTX 3060) that hold up years after release.

No hate, but...
Considering how often Slack asks me to update its Windows desktop app, I wonder why it doesn't simply auto-update. Is there a technical/best practice sorta reason behind having me update manually?
Especially when there no new features/major fixes announced.

Always wondered why 'Sport' was part of the brand name of an indulgent chocolate bar.
TIL 'Ritter's Sport Schokolade' was launched in 1932 after co-founder Clara Ritter suggested creating a bar that would fit into any sport jacket pocket without breaking but weighed the same as a normal bar.

streaming music services should never have been this cheap.
it's absurd that I pay so little (Rs. 129 for YouTube Premium in India) for unfettered access to virtually every song ever recorded.
It's even more absurd that artists get such a raw deal today.
