When you’re trying to identify a font, and this is the first sample you’re given. Easy mode.
From the couch to a one hour 10k: 19 weeks, two days. We’ll see how long it takes to do double that at the same pace.
Our infamous legislator Regina Ip has a 10 volume series on learning English?
- Contains all scroll interactions. (I expected to be able to scroll through it upon reaching the scroll-end, but that might just be me.) - Firefox is super-janky on content scroll. (M1 MBP) - Safari has bleed-through at the box boundary (appears to be dependent upon rounding).
A few annoyances, though I didn't compare to actual <select> behavior: - After flipping to "above" doesn't flip back to "below" until it re-intersects with a boundary. - Doesn't regrow. - Doesn't track the page anchor in Firefox during bounce-scroll.
Just noticed an absolutely beautiful example of Hong Kong’s “Prison Gothic” street signs.
Also, I couldn’t buy it even if I wanted to. Looks like international sales are not by lottery draw.
西多士 (lit. "West Toast" French Toast) served with maple syrup.
That's ... pretty fair for what you can find about me online.
There was a third suspect in this case, Matthew Trickett, who committed suicide. Given the circumstances, case, and conviction, it is difficult to argue this is political persecution. Trickett's exclusion from this discussion and resulting triptych makes it appear more political.
TVB (0511.hk) is is available for a song. US$152,692,000 Won’t somebody please buy it for me?
The a tail is flared, the visual weight of the second story isn’t tweaked, the font has traps seemingly without knowing why they are there… Don’t get me started about the e, or the i.
Weird take, but this feels like the Chinese version of these fonts. It’s an extreme exaggeration of features common in English fonts, but oddly applied.
My partner uses Canva and I hate it so much. As an indicator of their lack of attention to detail in an application supposedly for attending to details, they’ve got a cookie banner inside of their app.
This, in the country where firearms outnumber humans, is nonsense. Why would you 3D print a gun when acquiring one is so trivial? Meanwhile, the most famous case of assassination by homemade firearm, the weapon was a 2x4, a battery, and some pipes.
Sung Wong Toi already has the longest underground tunnels in Hong Kong! Just going the wrong direction.
The new hospital is 12 minutes away from the current flagship hospital. By car, because that’s the only way to get there. Moving from the center of all things and the most dense part of the city to the suburbs.
Pro tip for fly-tippers: don’t deposit trash on my dog walk path, especially if it identifies the source of the trash. I am good at navigating the bureaucracy to report you.
The funny thing is it literally asks me about this in the onboarding flow! Terminal stages of Software Brain where humans must adapt to software limitations instead of software supporting living.
I find it amusing that the @garmin.com Coach product won’t let you build a plan that fits your life and instead insists that your life fits into their constraints.
New LLM models are going to generate an amount of work to address newly-detected flaws in existing codebases that will be equivalent to Meltdown/Spectre. The next six months are going to be limited in feature development for all browsers and OSes. hacks.mozilla.org/2026/05/behi...
And then the surprisingly long walk from the station to the entrance.
Just noticed that we have stolen the Space Needle. Sorry not sorry, Seattle. Ours now.
