Hey @GoCardless - automatically switching customers to a more expensive plan with absolutely no benefit or explanation to them and then hiding the details of the price increases in a PDF download is pretty poor show.

Ambulance-chasing isn’t really our thing but we’ve already helped a number of ex-Bytemark / BigV customers avoid the AWS lock-in tractor beam so we might as well say it out loud here...

Been playing about with @figmadesign and @sketch recently. Design tools have come pretty far since starting out with photoshop back in the day (before the killer feature of scaling a rectangle). Want to change the size of a button? no problem... marquee and paint bucket 🙂

Genius. They wrote a script to make a PDF look like it's printed, signed, and then scanned again. Because digital signatures are still not accepted in many places while a signed and scanned printout is. This is hacking bureaucracy. I love it! gitlab.com/edouardklein/f…

Ever wondered how the @zoom_us macOS installer does it’s job without you ever clicking install? Turns out they (ab)use preinstallation scripts, manually unpack the app using a bundled 7zip and install it to /Applications if the current user is in the admin group (no root needed).
