Is there a Figma community resource or open source library of wallet UI for wireframing purposes?

Cosmos is officially the best tool for discovering & collecting inspiration for projects I've used in years — everything from product design to fashion to architecture, even enabling search by color or specific artists/studios. And it's a beautiful product, to boot: https://www.cosmos.so/home

New Mamalarky album bops. Clear evolution of their musicianship that breaks them out of the "Pollen" algorithmic-friendly, psychedelic indie pop pack. Not every cut delivers on its full promise but there's enough interest from their locked-in rhythm section and vocalist Livvy Bennet's sweet & sour tone to bridge the gaps.

Hey Figma Stars, a reminder for color conversions: Don't use plugins or online tools to convert across color spaces!
- You'll get the most accurate conversions if you do them directly in an Illustrator doc set to CMYK color mode.
- Enter either your RGB or Hexcode values into the Color menu. RGB tends to yield slightly more accurate values.
- Pantone is still unmatched for most color recreation in print. Since Adobe no longer partners with Pantone you'll need to import Color Books from older versions of the software to use them. Pantone Connect also costs $15 to do online color matching, but ALWAYS double check in Illustrator.
- Calibrate your monitor to display color more accurately in CMYK! Don't depend on an RGB display setting to proof print.

Noticing an emerging macro trend of people leaning back into IRL opportunities to work together. More retreats. More boutique conferences. Now, teams returning to offices by choice, not mandate.
I believe the future of work is still remote but maybe the pandemic pushed us too far ahead too quickly and we are seeing a correction.

Anyone have any etching tattoo artist recs in Austin?
Had a consultation with a nutritionist today and wow it takes a surprising level of vulnerability to do a diet recall and say out loud everything you ate recently.

Two major developments regarding the i35 expansion that are happening right now which will no doubt cause traffic & inconvenience navigating the central corridor:
1. MLK Bridge Reconstruction — Northbound 15th St entrance permanently closed. Southbound upper deck MLK exit permanently closed.
2. Ladybird Bridge — Exit 232 closed until early 2026
Get the latest updates & timelines for the many projects related to this massive expansion here: https://www.txdot.gov/mymobility35/projects/capex-central.html

Chattanooga has been designated as the first National Park City in North America. The city's mayor Tim Kelly wants "to encourage folks to think about Chattanooga as a city in a park, rather than a city with some parks in it," in effort to establish the city and its community as one that prioritizes connecting people to the outdoors.

Benito don't miss. I've had this on repeat all afternoon. Every musician here popped OFF during their solos. It really did feel like being transported to Puerto Rico for a time.

Does anyone have a plug at Rambler for sponsorship opportunities?
@bracky what are some ways I can put my accumulated $bracky to use while I’m not participating in an active tournament? The Masters is officially too complicated for me to vibe bracket.

We believe in the disruptive, liberating, and innovative power that onchain, decentralized orgs bring to the table. And now there is opportunity to contribute directly toward this future and give DAOs a seat at the table.

I’m realizing that all my critiques of Spotify’s algorithm were really a result of AI drift. Actively tending to it dramatically improves the outputs over time.
I’ve been noting activities that keep me driving:
- In-app feedback mechanisms (disliking songs/artists I don’t want to hear again, being more selective of which to add to playlists)
- Regular manual discovery to introduce variety and set standards — rabbit holes encouraged.
- Switching to podcasts to give my brain a break from music and a chance to get back in touch with what I actually WANT to listen to
- Fewer auto-radio stations
(Still preferring Apple Music for active listening sessions, and “journaling” in Spotify more)
