When done right, animations make an interface feel predictable, faster, and more enjoyable to use. They help you and your product stand out. But they can also do the opposite. They can make an interface feel unpredictable, slow, and annoying. They can even make your users lose trust in your product. So how do you know when and how to animate to improve the experience? Step one is making sure your animations have a purpose. Purposeful animations Before you start animating, ask yourself: what

Ever since interstellar object 3I/ATLAS streaked into our solar system, astronomers have been scrambling to understand how this likely comet got here—and more importantly, perhaps, where it came from. As only the third interstellar object ever discovered, 3I/ATLAS offers a rare chance to study remnants of solar systems beyond our own, briefly bringing the distant galaxy within reach.

X is now offering me end-to-end encrypted chat — you probably shouldn’t trust it yet

X, formerly Twitter, has started rolling out its new encrypted messaging feature called “Chat” or “XChat.” The company claims the new communication feature is end-to-end encrypted, meaning messages exchanged on it can only be read by the sender and their receiver, and — in theory — no one else, including X, can access them. Cryptography experts, however, are warning that X’s current implementation of encryption in XChat should not be trusted. They’re saying it’s far worse than Signal, a techno
