中文导读
Posy 梳理了电脑鼠标光标的演进简史,从最初垂直的直指针到倾斜箭头的诞生,细致对比了 Apple 与 Windows 的设计哲学;随后展示了他历经像素级打磨自制的免费光标套件。
为什么 HN 推它
HN 公认关于鼠标光标最洗练、质感极高的神作,只要聊到光标演进、像素美学或倾斜箭头,必有人贴出这个视频。
「正是这种精彩绝伦的短片,让人觉得互联网依然值得留恋。」HN 网友原话:It is one of those amazing videos that make the internet worthwhile, is short
英文原摘要(HackerTube / Claude 整理)
Posy gives a short history of the computer mouse cursor, from early straight pointers to the tilted arrow, comparing Apple and Windows designs. He then explains why he designed his own cursor set and offers it as a free download.
HN treats it as the definitive, short, well-made video on mouse cursors and pulls it out whenever cursor design, pixel perfection or the tilted arrow comes up.
