Caught up in design systems and operations, trombone fancier, organically curious, free-range raised.
So frustrated with ChatGPT 5.0. I wish there was a way to force projects to use an older model.

I appreciate Claude more every day.

Some great @figma.com features released this week, including variable filtering and search. But the real win for me is being able to assign a keyboard shortcut to toggle the variable panel.

Building a simple tool in Figma Make for exploring number sequences. Generates curves manually or with presets, and visually compares them to classics like Fibonacci, primes, triangular numbers, etc. Perfect for color ramps, motion curves, scales, and other design system nerdery.

Loved @discolu.bsky.social's Medium post about ditching 4px spacing for the Fibonacci sequence.

Looked into polygonal numbers for a similar purpose, and my hot take: Triangular numbers > Fibonacci for spacing 😍

Similar progression, but without the wild exponential jump at larger numbers.

Without the ability to set individual rows or columns to hug, grid layout in Figma has pre-auto-layout vibes and gives me anxiety.

@gruber.foo Apple using italics for summarized notifications is indeed clever. I just wish they had chosen a font with true italics rather than an oblique version of (presumably) San Francisco.

Almost two years, and Figma still doesn’t support string variables for line-height. Let us use percentages instead of calculating one for every text size!

Congrats to @fieldnotesbrand.bsky.social on celebrating 20 years!

Love the anniversary editions 🔥

I’d love to see a crossover between Planet of the Apes and Silo where Bad Ape and Solo team up for something crucial—essentially the same character in different species, both played by Steve Zahn.

It’s been 16 months since I tweeted here, hopelessly, “I really wished and hoped Bluesky was it.”, and now I’m thinking it IS it after all!

Should I feel bad that I’m totally ignoring Figma variables in favor of Tokens Studio?

I really wished and hoped Bluesky was it. 😔

Thank you @samiamdesigns.bsky.social for a meaningful, relevant, and insightful talk today. As much as I like the advanced feature announcements from the Tokens Studio folks, I find that content a bit self-serving and non-relatable at times. Your talk was the winner for me today!

Anybody else think that the Apple announcements today were a bit out of touch?
