Recording your dock cleanly can be a hassle, so i made this little tool of an interactive dock on the web!

The pen tool hasn't changed since 1987. We're rebuilding it at Opacity.

Turn freehand drawings into interactive mathematical constructions and physical simulations without wrestling with code or tools.
@rubaiat and I are building a prototype that blends sketches, multimodal representations, and AI. For more information, see 1iyiwei.github.io/kinetic-sk….

designers, we need to talk.
design is not about the figma you made.
design is all about how your vision gets implemented & used by users.
your pixel perfect figma is worthless if you can’t realize it in the end product, whether the medium is code or something else.

There are a sophisticated set of enabling technologies, but the feature’s goal was incredibly simple: to capture the vitality of the world around us. The Live Photo patent has a picture of my daughter as a toddler spinning in a dress in front of our house. As with a Live Photo, the more time passes, the more endearing it’s become.
live photos hit this perfect intersection of tech & tenderness. it might be the most quietly brilliant thing apple ever made. it’s a subtle wordless trick that turns stillness into something breathing.
i just stumbled on one & it hit like a gut punch. ridiculous that all photos have a tiny slice of life before the pose, the laugh or blink right before the photo froze… it makes your chest ache hardcore esp for a memory you can never ever have again.

How to be a designer:
- Find an arbitrary rule and follow it religiously.
- Be disappointed in someone else’s work.
- Call their problem “simple” without any knowledge of the constraints they faced.
- Insist that it would never have happened in the Steve Jobs era.
How can @Apple mess up a simple corner radius calculation on the new iPhone Air?
So disappointing.
This never happened in the Jobs and Ive era.

i can’t quite put my finger on it, but there’s something deeply satisfying about the camera poping up from the dynamic island. it just feels so right.
