Does anybody out there know anybody at LEGO who might have worked on this?! I'd love to learn more about it, and I'd also like to know why I can't find it again!! 😝

@cabel@social.panic.com I would use a word processor that worked like this.

@cabel@social.panic.com Can't argue with perfect, but it's be _even more perfect_ if it only used blocks and colors available at your birth year.

@cabel@social.panic.com My first reaction: "some people have too much time on their hands". Second reaction: "imagine working for a company that PAYS you to have this much time on your hands!".

@cabel@social.panic.com When the UK Legoland theme park was being built in the 90s, they put mini construction workers made of Lego around the site, with different Lego tools and machines and so on. I was doing deliveries to the site for a few months so I could see them move around the different builds as it all progressed. Just a lovely sense of fun.

@cabel@social.panic.com No this is awful.

@Alexbbrown@hachyderm.io 2023-08-21 12:42
@cabel@social.panic.com what are the odds they got accessibility right too?

@cabel@social.panic.com Love it! My favorite part might be how the cursor is also just a tall brick.

@cabel@social.panic.com I certainly hope that fancy text field took accessibility into account 😅

@cabel@social.panic.com how did you get the site to show you that window? I'd love to try it myself!

@cabel@social.panic.com I can't imagine the arguments I'd have at work about how this was could possibly be ROI positive.

@johanwestling@mastodon.social 2023-08-22 03:24
@cabel@social.panic.com If not in-house my guess would be the agency North Kingdom. They have done some cool things for Lego through the years.

@cabel@social.panic.com Honestly, NO. Websites should not add complication where it isn't necessary. Some people have shoddy connections. Some people have data caps, and they don't need to load several hundred KB or a few MB of data for a dumbass data entry box animation.

@cabel@social.panic.com WHAT?! I'm amazed how much work they put into that little input field you probably only see once, the passion is amazing.

@damieng@mastodon.social 2023-08-22 09:52
@cabel@social.panic.com As lovely and on-brand as it is I can't help but wonder whether it's accessible and if so how much extra work that was...
