There's quite a bit of cool stuff in the console too! The one in the top right corner

With some window management magic, we can show stuff to OBS that the client can't see. We're exploring the design space to see what sticks!

Recently I added sounds to a website that fall into this non-essential but experience enhancing (imo) category. I've had somewhat mixed response to this, from total annoyance to utter delight. I'm really not sure what the best approach is to take with sound on the web.

edit: Sounds are present when opening the console, or dragging a canvas around

I got the chance to create a whimsical game about their latest Adaptive Pricing feature, despite Stripe being a very serious financial company. I'm in an interesting place being able to be paid to make games for a non-gaming tech company.

I've carved an interesting role here at Stripe, making a game for a non-game company.

Interesting… thinly veiled play on blockchain? With Jack’s recent leave of twitter, I think it’s clear this is his new vision for the future.

With Facebook’s recent re-org to Meta, is this spurring a new wave of companies re-branding to be seen as relevant by associating with future technologies?

Libraries are pretty underrated working environments. Generally quiet, and many have conferencing or study rooms for reservations
