Dark Mode Is the New Comic Sans (And You Know It)
Dark mode is the Comic Sans of our time—born useful, hijacked by aesthetics, and now forced on users. It’s not kinder to your eyes, often wrecks accessibility, and turns UX into a design monoculture. ...

The AI Avalanche: Are We Drowning in Our Own Creation?
