inA $4.2 million logo fix? That stat about rebrands flopping made me check my own work files
Two of my last five marks go blurry below 32px" just means those logos were too busy, not that size checks are some magic fix, simple marks fail small too when they're just plain boring.

inAppreciation post: my 340 browser tabs are down to 12 after one small change
Wait, bookmarks aren't quite the same as tabs though. A tab dies when you close the window, but a bookmark just sits there forever being quiet, which honestly makes the guilt worse. I've got a folder called "read later" and @the_piper would laugh at how old some of those links are, probably stuff from 2019.

inUpdate: my co-worker said our site looks 'broken on purpose' and I checked, and yep, a div is sitting on top of the whole checkout button
That div is doing overtime as a roadblock lol. Classic z-index crime scene.

inOne comment about my star colors wrecked my whole editing flow
Back in 2019 I spent about four months shooting the Rosette Nebula from my backyard in Ohio and I was so proud of this deep red look I had going. Then some guy at a star party in Michigan glanced at my laptop for two seconds and said the stars looked like cough drops, and I couldn't unsee it. I went home and pulled up my old subs and sure enough I had been clipping the green channel in processing to make the red pop more, which made every star look like a little candy. It took me probably three weeks of reprocessing to fix the whole set and I still cringe at the old versions. Funny how one random comment from a stranger can totally reset how you see your own work. The annoying part is he was right.
