Elon: We need to eliminate government waste. Advisor: We could end tax breaks for billionaires. Elon: What about this guy here? Advisor: That's Greg. He has to push a button every ten minutes or our nuclear warheads will detonate, killing us all. We pay him $7.25 an hour. Elon: Fire Greg.

I physically twitch every time someone says they want to bring users “delight.” Like Steve this is accounting software, no one is delighted to be here

Implemented this on my personal website this morning. Made a couple small tweaks to fit my use case, but seems to be working well. #a11y https://www.erikkroes.nl/blog/the-universal-focus-state/

I think it's nice that we devote the same amount of time each year to fashion and sharks.
