Facebook memories showing me old instas of design work all marked up and scribbled on by a horrible client and tagging it which #designlife #workinglate #loveagencylife #hustle like it was perfectly ok 😔

The work was fucking excellent and it sucked being young and just taking it on the chin.

On balance I’ve been relatively lucky with clients but I put up with and normalised a fair few horrors.

If you employee young creatives, look after than and don’t let them weather bad clients.

But categorically, the number seems to be a literal random number generator attached to setTimeout from what I can tell

Twitter these days is like

96 new tweets

And then you click and it loads like maybe 4 new actual tweets, plus a couple you've already seen, plus whatever is being boosted by Elon's silent retweet to everyone button 😅

For all the CSS is hard/I hate CSS whining, you'd think I'd be like one of the PHP/Laravel dudes with a Lambo by now 🤷🏻‍♂️

Absolutely, continually blown away by #supabase

$25 for just hosted #PostgreSQL , #auth for 100k MAU, and email support is brilliant.

The fact it's also a fully formed #BaaS/#Firebase alternative with far less lock in is a bonus.

Working on my SQL chops has been the smartest thing I've done in a loooong time.
