After over 4.5 years I've taken a voluntary redundancy and completed my last day at GitLab. Being at GitLab was the best job I have ever had, and where I've done some of the best work. I wrote some of my reflections, it changed how I think about work, forever. danmh.xyz/gitlab/

@michaeljleader.bsky.social hey Michael! have you and Jake ever considered covering don hertzfeldt on ghibliotheque? a v diff style of animation to some of your previous stuff, but definitely a unique voice. his entire catalogue being added to dropout+ a new film coming this year makes him topical
ok... a juice breakdown (a smoothie?) 🧃 🍎 1. fluid shape morphing each shape feels as if it seamlessly flows into the next. done through their literal form - but also through the transition. colour change + scale bounce + extra rotation velocity helps mask the svg morph to make it feel magic

Trawling through Steam reviews for Proteus, this one really stuck with us even though it wasn't the most emotional one. "Like pouring warm soup on your soul. Or like getting into a bathtub of beautiful soup. It's like eating a bowl of beautiful soup." steamcommunity.com/id/yatoimtop...

Amazing high vibrational game. Like pouring warm soup on your soul. Or like getting into a bathtub of beautiful soup. It's like eating a bowl of beautiful soup. The soundtrack is gorgeous and reactive...

I spent several days with FitXR's latest update before writing this piece. Journey is the headline feature, but I also came away impressed by the revamped sound design, Profile Levels, and Oceana. My latest hands-on look:👇

Made a lil pomodoro timer for M5StickS3. It uses IMU data to switch between different UI modes and a single button to change settings. I like the implicit modes. It follows the affordance of the physical device. #arduino #lvgl #m5sticks3 #prototyping #esp32 #microcontroller #pomodoro #uidesign #imu
my recent goto when i don't have much time/energy to draw is pikmin. they're so fun & tiny... good lads holding their fruit
www.meta.com/en-gb/experi... we just launched one of our biggest features yet in fitxr - a personalised journey for every single one of our users we've been cooking up this one for a while - so excited it is finally out in the wild
I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again.. nothing improves an in-dev game’s graphics better than dropping in the music/sound effects
@jamesbentley.bsky.social loved reading your fitxr article in pcgamer today (i help design it)! so lovely to hear it is working well for you & amazing to hear about your journey we try to push hard on habit & being a step into a healthier life, so v cool to see that reflected in your article 😍
another little experiment. clicking my name pulses the image in the header. i extended the fragment shader on my header (github.com/akella/Disto...) to have a pulse effect that gets activated in time with a bounce animation
silly experiment i made after our brand designer made a sweet design & it was begging to be made interactive pipturner.co.uk/experiments/no-straight-line/

Thoughtfulness is not a bottleneck. It's the investment that makes everything else worth doing. AI is a multiplier on human intention, not a substitute for it. Believing that isn't a messaging position — it's a practice. design-is-the-work.figma.site?ref=uxdesign...
Design is the work.
We're in a moment where it has never been cheaper or faster to build something convincing. The cost of taking an idea and making it look real, feel functional, or seem finished has collapsed. That is…
