A Turkish guy in a van turns the corner tight enough to almost run us over. He then stops and pulls down the window: “Möchtest du mir etwas sagen?”
To which I better don’t reply: “Ja, ‘senin ananı babanı sikeyim.'”
These guys are so easily triggered. Once I did say this and the dude followed me through half of Schöneberg in his car.

Pete Buttigieg looked inside himself and decided he belonged at… the world’s most sinister and amoral management consulting company.
Fair enough.
SUVs do not have any business in cities and the fact that they’re allowed in there is criminal.
Figma’s multiplayer support is fantastic and something similar should be a part of every creative application. Now they’ve also written a very understandable high-level overview of their implementation (with CRDTs).

The story about Dutch national cyber scammer Rian van Rijbroek written up in full like is done here is amazing and priceless.
I remember some very early conversations about the Basslet (now Lofelt) and its creative possibilities. Building their own design tools for this medium is a key move and I look forward to trying it out.
