Neat trick! Turn anything isometric with these CSS classes: .transform-h-x { transform: matrix(1.42,0,0,0.71,0,0) rotate(45deg); } .transform-v-z { transform: matrix(1,-0.5,0,1,0,0); } .transform-v-x { transform: matrix(1,0.5,0,1,0,0); } Demo: codepen.io/pbakaus/pen/Ea…

Has somebody already built "Twitter for busy people"? LLM-powered post processing of your timeline that removes (or rewrites) hyperbole/hype stuff, creates groups (dedupe), etc? I never want to see a "BREAKING: {insert not breaking random AI thing}" again (w/o muting)
