WholeFoods has it setup well, but that's the only store I've come across that has it. I think it's about the same speed as digging out my credit card. I just wish more retailers would enable it for their machines.
I always thought the rainbow was a nod to the One Step version of Polaroid's SX-70. It had a little rainbow strip that came down from the lens. Now its a gradient? Meh.
Also looks like we're going back to extreme rounded corners again? Square is out? Heh.
On a positive note, I do like the white and grey tone of the app itself. Cleaner and more relaxing than the blue/black tones.
It always seems to be on any site where you have to create a profile, by default it'll be exposed to google.
I really wish there was a checkbox at the end of a registration form that said something like "Show Publicly". I'd wager most people would leave it unchecked.
You're joking right? It's a nightmare and far from perfect. Reading text is an exercise in self-loathing.

In which I can see:
* Text over a lined background. How is that helpful? It's a constant Moiré pattern while you're reading
* Awful leading/line heights.
* Unoptimal character count per line. Best practices is 50-70 depending on font size.
* Tiny type! I have 20/20 vision and there is 11px type I'm trying to read on a 15" laptop.
* Spurious text areas on the right. There's poor organization of text.
* The welcome text is small and lost above the image.
I could go on about the design, but that always subjective.
Curious if they have any fallback for the very few browsers that can't render inline svg.
I could see this being an issue for a highly complex vector shape. But most shapes only consume a few bytes. Compared to an external image or another request for the font files.
Glass bike path when it rain sounds like a death trap
Grav released their 1.0 beta few weeks ago. It looks pretty promising. Seems it was created by a group that makes themes for WordPress and it borrows some of WordPress's admin ideas.
File-file CMS so it'll make it really easy to make small sites for clients and then deploy them to a EC2 bucket or their shared-host.
They emailed everyone who ever had a login. I got an email about it and I was only added as a user to help manage an install 2 years ago.
I love the comment someone left on that article.

When I eat deep-fried oysters, I am lonely, But they are delicious.
Only Haruki-san can do this without trying. But not without frying.
Upgrade to PRO Version for $29.99 a year.
How is Home Depot a model of "Customer Intimacy". Have you been to one of their stores? If you do, god forbid, don't ever go on the weekend and look for help.
Once you go black you ... pay $1500 for a pre-fab coop?
I won't mind if they leave town at all.
I wonder if rice is fine when it's been fried? Many times I've left out fried rice from a delivery for hours and eaten it later. Hmm.
I didn't realize Prime had HBO shows, I guess I'll finally make some use of it.
1Password said they are working on something that will allow you to enter passwords for apps. Maybe it's something similar?
I still prefer American cash. Besides, half the places in SF are cash only.
I thought Match.com owns Tinder now?
When your cat chews up the cable, of course you're going to leave a bad review. Get it together Apple!
Those all look like they are made in those dime-store logo factories. They charge $100-500 for some copy'n'paste shapes that the client "loves" because it looks just like their competitor.
They look really great. That's been a project I've wanted to try for fun but have lacked the time.
That's pretty much the point of this thread...
And now I'm sad.
This is just a designer jerk-off to get attention. Just like someone porting 2048 to whatever hot new language is out this week. :)
I find that talking a problem to death usually solves things.
Why is it compared to Burning Man? Music + Drugs + Kooky People? Oh ok that's burning man alright... Lazy journalism.
That's why I compose all my top secret documents in emoji. If anyone finds them they'll just assume it's gibberish from a 13yr old girl.
Top things for "World Cup" are videos of girls with big boobs in low cut shirts. Classy.
