@andybudd @mulegirl @alicenwondrlnd Amaro Nonino seems like one of my best discoveries of the past couple years. There’s also a Rosemary & Lime cocktail with it (ketel one, amaro, rosemary, angostura, lime juice) that is fantastic.
-
@mulegirl We love the paper plane. It’s a go-to now, and so easy to make with those equal proportions.

@mathowie Whether in CA, east coast, Midwest, or in the southeastern US, I’ve only ever heard two kinds of cold tea: Iced Tea (sometimes referred to as unsweet) or Sweet Tea (very sweet, IMO). If you order an “Iced Tea” and it comes pre-sweetened, they’re doing it wrong.

@Stammy @KristyT Another instance where aliased keywords would help Twitter search, such as from:follows in this instance. Just another database query. A complex query, but still a query. twitter.com/stop/status/13…

@stop @Yarcom @gwb @bhaggs Oh, and we use a universal remote so we don’t need to use multiple remotes. The Marantz, TV, cable, and Apple all have their own remotes. But a single universal controls the Marantz, TV, AppleTV, and switches to Sonos (which still requires using the Sonos controller or Airplay.)

Here we are again, 5 years later, still in the same boat. twitter.com/stop/status/80…

Yesterday, without much fanfare, we quietly relaunched a new version of @GreaterInk. Many of the original shirts are back, some designs updated. And holiday shirts are back too, for 1 day. Today, Dec 10, is the deadline to squeeze in holiday orders. greater.ink

@pandemona In awe of you and everything you contributed. From the time you arrived and on. Thank you. Take care. 💙

@stevesilberman #legendary. (You, not Yoko or Allen) also, hi, Steve!

I worked on HotWired, Webmonkey, and CocktailTime. Also, while there, advertising on the web didn’t exist, so we invented the ad banner. (For which I am forever sorry.) twitter.com/thomasfuchs/st…

IMO, the DAO is a misnomer and an illusion. As long as one person/group controls the twitter account, discord server, and wallet(s), DAOs won’t ever be truly decentralized. And without a legal structure guaranteeing member rights and elected leaders, they’re not even democratic. twitter.com/martymadrid/st…

@shellen Better than this. My sad substitution can’t even come close.

@martymadrid @Arty_Lee12 Both are missed opportunities to brand themselves as DAFs.

@kfury Just wait until multiple blockchain currencies show up there too.

Scott and I briefly overlapped when he worked at Twitter for a stint. Since then, I’ve admired his art, the juxtaposition of his imagery choices, and the wistful nostalgia it stirs up. Just picked up a Hilltop print to hang in my office. He’s worth following for his art alone. twitter.com/scottlistfield…

@shellen Blasphemous! We wish we had a Philz a little closer. We miss the easy access in SF. Closest is about a 40 minute drive, so it’s a treat for us.

@stop @meyerweb @knotandgrain Or if they don’t make them, they certainly *showcase* them.
-
@meyerweb I don’t know – but I follow @knotandgrain on IG, and I know they design and craft custom tables and shelving and all that often do exactly this kind of thing. They would know.
-
@jruderman @DotDotJames Yes, screenshots of vertically flowing timelines don’t do them justice, for better or worse.
Even when we showed timelines in design reviews, even though we had long narrow images or prototypes, they had to be scrolled within a smaller viewport to capture true mobile feel.
-
@jruderman @DotDotJames Looks like this is probably it. And you can partially see some issues. Though I think they get worse when media is present.
-
@grantrobinson This is the original design, not the new experiment. Your screenshot just happens to capture a tweet view, rather than out on the main timeline. The new experiment looks very different.
-
@designnotdrum @DannPetty A screenshot or two on my 12 mini won’t do much justice when I can only fit about 1.5 tweets per screen. Just hope you won’t ever need to experience it yourself.
-
@DLand @kevinmarks @emoore @jbrewer Perhaps. Advertisers would get about 25% more pixels in width in the full width timeline. And with the unclear vertical boundaries between tweets, this may show higher engagement if the wrong metrics are prioritized.
-
@ozlubling I hear that. I’m sure an opt in/out would bias the results. But random selection sure puts a lot of burden on certain users to weather some bad trials.
-
@kpk Nah, I don’t buy that. Images and video can easily be tapped to expand. As it is in this new mess, everything jumbles together. The extra pixels gained aren’t worth it.
-
@DannPetty Doesn’t help that the vertical spacing and padding is all wonky and probably not flushed out. Everything jumbled together. Hopefully this is an experiment that was rushed out, and ends up failing spectacularly.
-
@mezzoblue @Brilliantcrank Ice cold. Like, blue ice.
-
@stop We realized hanging the user’s profile pic in the left margin acts as a very distinct marker, like a bulleted list, indicating clearly where each tweet starts and stops. Cheating the tweets and images over underneath the pfp wasn’t worth the extra few pixels gained in width.
-
All 41 shades couldn’t save that design. But apparently someone there thinks it’s worth reviving from the dead heap of bad ideas.
-
One of my twitter accounts must be in a test group for this new FB-like timeline design. Super uncomfortable browsing experience. We tried designs showing tweets like this a few times (pfp and name stacked on top of full-width tweet), but they didn’t make it out of design review.
-
@PaulAnnett Whew. Glad you got it blasted. I know the pain they cause. Most painful thing I’ve ever experienced. I passed 2 stones last year (at one time). Caught the bastards in a strainer too, so I’ve felt with my fingers how sharp they are.
