Reading list

• Piccalil.li is a great source for front-end development related articles, and this long read delves into the ongoing development of their own redesign.
• Everyone and your grandmother are well aware of generative AI, and the world has been dealing with the uncanny results of prompts that seemingly just get crazier. But thankfully, we've mostly been able to discern the difference between real and fake. There's also been at least a little bit of an effort and/or skill involved in generating images with AI. According to The Verge, all of this is about to change, for real. The new Google phones include the ability to easily prompt within your own personal photo app, and the results are quite frankly horrifyingly real.

Design of the week

• Just plain useful translation of graphical terms from English to Norwegian, courtesy of Knoodle.
• Have your typographical itches scratched October 19 at the Typography Theory Pratice Conference in Leeds, UK. We (as in Norway) are sending over the myth, the legend, the Aslak Gurholt, to cover the Dashed and Hyphens section.

Tech of the week

• Pines is a UI library for Alpine JS. Very useful.
• Cursor promises to be the AI Code Editor you need. Certainly compelling.

A revoir.
