Grumpy Website

nikitonsky: The Russian navigation app 2GIS shows an ad for a place... in a completely different location. You’d think this “8 Марта” place is right here, but it’s actually on the opposite side of the city. What you see is just a banner ad.

nikitonsky: This Google Translate icon is actually a toggle, but it indicates its status with two very close shades of grey, AND its hover state is the same for both states. Good luck if you actually try to use it.

nikitonsky: This ChatGPT UI (left) rubs me the wrong way. It looks like we are editing a field called ‘High’ (hello) and its leftmost value is ‘Advanced >’.

Right is my attempt to fix it.

nikitonsky: A modal dialog without close or cancel button. Clicking outside doesn’t close it either.

nikitonsky: Leave it to Google to make a “Copy to clipboard” button that
