What is a good iPhone app for feeding and diaper tracking for newborns? I want it to sync between parents. I have tried My Baby (it’s ok, too many taps), and Huckleberry (despised this).

I want it to be an elegant app that’s super easy to use and made by a developer who clearly cares. Like if the people who make Things made a baby tracker.

I am doing some science. If your microwave has a number pad, please try and share the following:

1. try to turn it on for 90 seconds. Does it count down from 90, 1:30, or throw an error?
2. similarly, try to turn it on for 290. Does it count down from 2:90, 3:30, or throw an error?
3. and the brand of your microwave please

Nothing makes me sadder than reading a long-running blog that is now written in Claude’s tone of voice. So gross.

@jsnell@zeppelin.flights there is technically the thrash metal band Exodus, so they’d probably need to be renamed Leviticus while you’re at it. Or is it Numbers that comes next? (I think it’s Leviticus?)

@richardthebrave@mastodon.social thank you so much! That’s kind of you to say. I have a looooot more to come on stylescapes, assuming I can get it all done and posted. But if you had specific questions, I’m happy to share anything I can :)

@richardthebrave@mastodon.social I doubt you're dying for an update, but I figured out how to share more stylescapes in the future. Once the new site is up, there will be in-depth essays on certain projects with loads of WIP images, including the stylescapes. Just won't be in the newsletter any time soon, so wanted to set your expectations if you were waiting :)

@richardthebrave@mastodon.social thank you! I’ve cover stylescapes a few times, most recently here (with examples): https://wildfirestudios.ca/blog/studio-missive-26-the-new-website-for-bruce-mayhew I will definitely share the ones from a couple weeks ago specifically, but not sure when — trying to rebrand the studio and struggling to find the time in to do it all well.

At the moment, this is the last missive I'm posting in this format. I plan on changing it up a little bit next week. So this is that awkward moment where you're happy with what you've published, but you're too excited about what's ahead to care.

Got writing this week about brands aren't logos, and aren't really something we control. They're something we create together with our customers. They're sort of symbiotic: https://wildfirestudios.ca/blog/studio-missive-34-your-brand-is-not-your-logo

@tvaziri you should be. Best explanation I’ve ever seen, and it makes me so angry. Deeply love it.

@stroughtonsmith@mastodon.social we are using iPads as second screens and workout monitors and sketchpads and… not much else. But all 3 of those things are insanely valuable to me.

@onpaperwings roughly 330 linear ft. I still don’t know what a “linear” anything is, so I don’t know any more than that

@leon@peoplemaking.games @stroughtonsmith@mastodon.social I don’t have the impression he knew what the issues were, outside of the One launch. He kept the bad names, released exclusives before they were ready, cancelled everything the fans were looking forward to, and botched the Series generation entirely. When he finally righted the exclusives ship, he made them multi platform. Every decision he made was bad.

@stroughtonsmith@mastodon.social I am less certain Spencer leaving is bad news. He has not helped Xbox much in the past 10 years. Just when they started releasing exclusives that maybe could have helped, he put them on his biggest competitor. The Xbox platform is filled with advertising and gotchas. It’s just not enticing anymore. And that all happened under his tenure.

@jensimmons@front-end.social a lot of the new CSS stuff has been coming so fast that I worry I won’t be able to keep up. Filters, shapes, if statements, and functions in CSS?!? I need so many explainers.
