It's here! The Steam Winter Sale is underway now and runs through January 2. That leaves you plenty of time to internally debate whether you really need to buy yet more games and ultimately convince yourself that yes, in fact, you do.

Several notable titles from the Summer Sale are once again seeing similar discounts this season. Baldur

Layer Enhanced Classification (LEC) is a novel technique that outperforms current industry leaders like GPT-4o, LlamaGuards 1 and 8B, and deBERTa v3 Prompt Injection v2 for content safety and prompt injection tasks.

We prove that the intermediate hidden layers in transformers are robust feature extractors for text classification.

On content safety, LEC models achieved a 0.96 F1 score vs GPT-4o's 0.82 and Llama Guard 8B's 0.71.The LEC models were able to outperform the other models with o

Hey HN,

I'd like to share a fun project I've been working on: mizu.js.

It's a js library that add functional attributes support into your html, designed to be a simple and flexible alternative to fully-fledged web frameworks (such as Vue, React, and Angular), while offering more capabilities than other lightweight options (like Alpine.js and htmx).

As it's written using modern ES features and due to its isomorphic nature, it can be run in both browsers and runtimes (Node, Deno, Bun) wi

I’ve been talking to a lot of junior designers lately. After one of these chats, I reflected on how my career evolved. Interestingly, I couldn’t say I was much different from today’s junior designers. What’s different today compared to a decade ago is the environment. The job market has changed for the worse, and design tools have bloomed. https://webdesignernews.com/reflecting-on-a-decade-in-product-design/

Ant Design X is a brand new AGI component library from Ant Design, designed to help developers more easily develop AI product user interfaces.

I have this habit where when I’m watching a TV show where I like to read about it on my phone while I’m watching it. Reviews, summaries, fan theories, whatever. Seems like that would be distracting — but I think it’s extra engaging sometimes. I’d often end up on Wikipedia where they do episode informational summaries in a particular layout where the small screen layout had a horribly obnoxious side... https://webdesignernews.com/responsive-tables-readable-paragraphs/

Over the past two decades I’ve been hearing people I’ve worked with and in the product community — other designers and PMs, clients when I ran an agency, founders and CEOs — saying they want designers to “design like Apple”. The problem has always been a chicken-and-egg one: to design like Apple, you need to prioritize simplicity in all parts of your organization (like Apple). https://webdesignernews.com/design-like-apple/
