Arthur Monnet

I shipped arthur.now, an over-engineered portfolio, on purpose. It has an MCP server and an AI chat, so you can ask about my work instead of digging through pages. The case studies have interactive demos you can actually use. There are easter eggs. More than I'm willing to admit. 15 years designing products for other people. I wanted one that's mine. A normal portfolio would've been easier. This one was the point. Built with Claude Code and sleepless nights.

@pocarles Wow, t’as utilisé 100% de 2 Open AI Pro ? 🤯 t’es un sauvage, j’arrive à peine à utiliser 100% de mon Max 20X 😅

@ArthurMonnet En fait, j’ai topé mes deux plans Pro d’OpenAI avec Codex et je ne voulais pas perdre la journée. En prendre un troisième ne serait pas raisonnable. Donc sur ce coup, Anthropic a eu un peu de chance sur le timing.

Au prix d'une maitrise acquise dans un temple bouddhiste au fin fond du Tibet qui m'a forgé un mental que même l'adamantium ne peut altérer, j'aurais tenu 6h.

some interesting internal settings these days 👀

Honestly, this is the most accurate diagram I've seen. Waterfall: You plan for 18 months and deliver exactly what nobody needs anymore. Agile: You deliver something usable at every step, but the CEO keeps asking, "Where's the car?" AI: You get the car on day one. It has six wheels, the doors are on backwards, and it has a rocket launcher. You spend more time making it yours than actually "building"; it's shaping. owning. verifying. That's what the best AI developers do now. They don't build. They shape and own.

@ishaansehgal @omnaraai 👀 want to try :)

Nothing excites me more when reviewing a designer's portfolio than a photo of sticky notes on a whiteboard and a zoomed-out Miro board screenshot

Inspect element never looked so good

@Astrolys @Lebossus_neo @Xavier75 Ah ok désolé, étonnant. C’est même assez chiant au Canada car pas mal de services sont pas accessibles avec une IP française donc je suis obligé de mettre un VPN Canada… au Canada 😅

@ArthurMonnet @Lebossus_neo @Xavier75 Quand j’étais en Pologne, j’avais une IP polonaise. Je pouvais pas avoir les catalogues français de services de streaming, par ex. Mais en utilisant un VPN, je pouvais y accéder. Est-ce qu’il y a d’autres paramètres qui influencent, comme des accords entre FAI internationaux ?

@Astrolys @Lebossus_neo @Xavier75 Faux, je suis au Canada et quand je suis en roaming c’est IP Fr

@Lebossus_neo @Xavier75 Ton IP dépend (principalement) de ton moyen de connexion au réseau, et donc de l’infrastructure de ton FAI. Si tu es en France, tu te connectes à une tour en France et c’est comme ça qu’un site web sait où tu es. Si t’es au Canada, ton tel va se connecter à une tour canadienne.

TELLEMENT CONTENT du lancement d’Artemis II 🚀 1.parce que c’est l’aventure de notre génération qui débute, et c’est pas tous les jours que l’on peut dire ça 🌍 2.parce que ce sont des collègues mais surtout des amis chers qui sont maintenant en route pour la Lune 🌕 3.parce que quand l’humain se donne du mal, il peut faire de grandes choses positives, et en ce moment ça fait du bien de se le rappeler ✨ / SO excited about the launch of Artemis II 🚀 1.because it marks the beginning of our generation’s great adventure, and that’s not something you get to say every day 🌍 2.because they’re not just colleagues, but dear friends now on their way to the Moon 🌕 3.because when humanity truly commits, it can achieve great things, and it feels good to be reminded of that right now ✨ #artemisII #artemis #sls #lune #artemisII #artemis #sls #lune @NASAArtemis @NASA @csa_asc @asc_csa @astro_reid @AstroVicGlover @Astro_Christina @Astro_Jeremy

@joffrey Pouce en bas

Just tried e-foil in Bacalar, wow I want to do that every morning before breakfast

@x225franc @cactus_chaleur @j3qj3p @Pogba92_ Je suis sur Claude Max mais ce que tu dis est faux. Sur la plupart des tâches, Codex d’OpenAi est actuellement plus performant. Ca change assez vite mais actuellement c’est le cas.

@cactus_chaleur @j3qj3p @Pogba92_ tu as considèrer l'éventualité ou c'est un développeur et que claude c'est littéralement la MEILLEURE IA actuellement pour les devs ? genre vraiment ya un monde entre chatgpt et claude au niveau du Dev , c'est même pas un troll, renseigne toi

Azzy j’veux bien c dur Macron etc mais faut y mettre du vôtre aussi d fois , comment ça abonnement Claude

when software had a soul there was a moment around 2005 when using a Mac felt like touching something alive. the dock bounced. the genie effect swooped. exposé scattered your windows like cards on a table. none of it was strictly necessary. all of it felt like someone cared – not about metrics, but about the feeling of using a machine. software back then had texture. it had a philosophy. you could feel the person behind it. someone made a decision to make that icon beautiful, to animate that transition just so, to write that error message with a little warmth. apps had personalities. some were weird. some were over-designed in ways that would make a modern PM flinch. but they were alive. the web was the same. personal sites were genuinely personal. blogs felt like letters. forums had regulars. you knew who made what. the internet had neighborhoods, and each one felt different. nothing was optimized for scale. things were made by people who loved what they were making. somewhere along the way, we traded all of that for growth. A/B tests flattened the edges. design systems standardized the personality out. everything got faster, smoother, more consistent – and somehow less interesting. the quirks were removed because they didn't test well. the warmth got cut because it wasn't measurable. we optimized our way into a world of things that work perfectly and feel like nothing. now every app looks the same. every interface follows the same patterns. every product speaks in the same calm, frictionless voice, siloed in their own little islands. the humanity got rounded off. and then came AI agents. and the speed got inhuman. now you can generate an entire product in an afternoon. ship a feature before lunch. spin up ten variations before anyone's had their coffee. the gap from idea to code is basically zero. which sounds incredible. and it is. but there's a catch. when making things are too easy, the slop comes for free too. mediocre things don't look obviously bad – they look fine. they work. they ship. they pass review. and now there are infinite of them. the internet is filling up with software that functions but means nothing. interfaces that are correct but feel dead. products made by agents, reviewed by no one, shipped into the void. this is the thing that keeps me up at night. not that AI will replace people who care. but that it will drown them out. here's what I still believe: the best things are made by people who couldn't help themselves. someone who lost sleep over an icon. who rewrote the same line of copy twelve times. who added an animation nobody asked for because it made the thing feel right. that obsession – that's not inefficiency. that's the whole point. AI doesn't make that irrelevant. it actually makes it rarer and more valuable. taste is not a markdown skill. caring is not a parameter. the weird, specific, "soul" thing you put into something – that can't be programmed into existence. the path forward isn't to make more slop faster. it's to finally give people with real vision the tools to make the thing they always imagined but couldn't build alone. the designer who had the idea but couldn't code. the kid who saw something nobody else saw. the person who cared too much about something most people wouldn't notice. if we get this right, we don't get a faster factory. we get a renaissance. more strange, personal, opinionated software made by teams of people who care and mean it. that's still possible. but only if the people who care get the space and tools to actually express themselves – and don't just hand the wheel to the agent and walk away.

@gonzague J’utilise free depuis Montréal, ça marche super bien mais à chaque fois que je rentre en France je trouve que c’est vraiment pas terrible 😅

"hater" .. "t'as jamais essayé" .. "tu bosses pour la concurrence" .. ( = 50% des réponses que j'ai reçu cet après midi )

Been using it for a month, it’s great. You should use it.

Space is no longer about launch. SpaceX already won that game. The next frontier is orbit. 💫 Deploying, controlling, and operating massive structures in space. At @gamaspace, we started with solar sails. Now, we’re (with @andrewnutter) building the infrastructure layer: deorbit sails, large-scale energy surfaces, deployable structures. ~20 engineers. No sales. No marketing. Just builders. We’re now hiring a Head of Business Development to build the function from scratch and take this global. Rare role. Huge ambition. 👇 gamaproject.notion.site/Head-of-Busine… Photo: Falcon 9 liftoff carrying our baby Gama Alpha (01/03/23)
