maybe cause it had character.

now all software are made from prefabricated design system components so everything can be shipped fast and appropriately measured

I have been a fan of 37signals and its founders since college. I thought they were some of the smartest people in the industry. Their “Getting Real” book still rocks. (And maybe you know Mastodon was written in RoR).

Therefore, it’s especially sad to see how DHH and Jason Fried are simping for Elon Musk now. It’s devastatingly disappointing when your heroes growing up reveal themselves as jerk billionaire wannabes.

(DHH’s summary of Musk’s biography has some reasonable and obvious points, but look at the first one. It’s just stupid).

Two of my absolute favorite icons for the Mac: internal drive & Xserve. 😍
New site is online. New structure, new typeface, new teasers, new videos, new support section, new buy, new everything. Still a little raw on the edges, here and there.

I think it was British Petroleum that first promoted the idea of an individual "Carbon Footprint".

Their agenda was to promote the idea that it was up to an individual to reduce their own carbon footprint. In other words, the capitalist idealogy that the free market will mitigate climate change. Which is complete nonsense. But, it paved the way for industries to avoid accountability for their planetary-scale ecological degrading activities.

Seems like "design systems" are mostly about accommodating an inexperienced, undertrained workforce.

For the most part System Mono maintains the same glyph set as its proportional counterparts, but I couldn’t help adding box-drawing and block elements for terminal graphics.

(This doesn’t mean it’s specifically intended for programming — although if you enjoy using it for code, you certainly can. I just think these glyphs are broadly useful, and they’re fun to draw.)

Please welcome the newest addition to the Mass-Driver catalogue, MD System Mono!

Designed by @lukecharsley and available today in 10 styles.

System Mono is the monospaced counterpart to our flagship workhorse grotesque, sharing the same vertical metrics as the proportional family — and the same slightly rotated contrast that gives the typeface its warm, analogue character.

MD System · Mass-Driver™

A typeface for general practice: MD System is a workhorse grotesque which combines a rational family layout with an appearance that embraces the human hand.

It’s wild how the default font picker on Macs today still looks like this thing from 1987:
