Road signs are the one constant when driving across our wildly diverse country. That's because America’s roads and highways have a big, fat style guide. f-st.co/M35zI6s

How cool is #lidar? Well, it can see gators lurking beneath the surface, so I’d say it’s pretty dang awesome.

Your design system is comprehensive? That’s cute.
"The Manual on Uniform Traffic Control is a hefty tome consisting of close to 900 pages that contains the federal standards for all traffic safety signs, roadway markings etc.”

You may know AP, Chicago and MLA style guides, but #DYK that road signs have one of their own? Check out this piece about the uniformity required for road signs across the U.S. As @CTDOTOfficial puts out more #BIL signage, they'll follow this typography. ow.ly/glX550MsFpo

Andy and I have been collaborating on a deep dive into the openly available training data that was used for Stable Diffusion - here's Andy's detailed write-up on what we've figured out so far waxy.org/2022/08/exploring-1…
What images are in the massive dataset that trained the Stable Diffusion text-to-image AI model? @simonw and I made a tool for you to explore/search a subset of it: 12 million image/caption pairs out of over 2 billion that it was trained on. waxy.org/2022/08/exploring-1…
