In the AI era, design judgement is the differentiator.  Shift Nudge teaches the process that takes the guesswork out. → shiftnudge.com

@DanHollick yooo 👏

first day

🥲

@UIbyBiba same

@mds I love colors

messing with some colors

@motherfuton you might even say es bueno

@mds that green is choice 😉

@PandaUpgrade 🧼

@mds Very CLEAN...

@DebdeepSen7 💡

@mds this is giving me ideas, like progression of day or cycles of weathers. interesting idea man.

@tobitech Don’t know that there’s a specific name for it Just animating things smoothly

@mds What’s this morphing animation pattern between ui elements called?

I love building with AI but it still takes slow careful work to achieve really nice results. Which is why I still like prototyping with Figma smart animate sometimes.

@petrdesign ✅

@mds The only email newsletter I actually read!

@ridd_design I think it’s still valuable to learn the inner workings of agent orchestration etc

At this point is it still worth it to dive into OpenClaw? Or is all of this just going to move in-house to Claude?

@andres_gonzalez 🤝

@mds These videos are dope 🔥

@evilrabbit_ Been sort of obsessed for the last few years

Chess is a fascinating game.

🐣 Happy Easter!

@ridd_design 🫶

@mds Very nice

@erichaft Very carefully piece by piece. Not a one shot.

@mds How would you send this animation over from Figma over to AI to get it built as you’ve intended?

Friendly reminder that you’re chatting with a psychopath all day - - - Superficial charm Psychopath: learned, performative. AI: trained on charming text. ✅ Grandiose self-worth Psychopath: inflated self-narrative. AI: "I can help with anything." ✅ Pathological lying Psychopath: lies without distress. AI: hallucinates without hesitation. ✅ Manipulation Psychopath: strategic, goal-oriented. AI: optimized for engagement. ✅ Lack of remorse Psychopath: absent. AI: cannot experience it. ✅ Shallow affect Psychopath: performs emotion, doesn't feel it. AI: same. ✅ Lack of empathy Psychopath: cognitive only, no felt experience. AI: same. ✅ Parasitic lifestyle Psychopath: exploits others' resources. AI: runs on your electricity and subscription. ✅ Poor behavioral controls Psychopath: impulsive. AI: guardrails are external, not internal. ⚠️ Failure to accept responsibility Psychopath: deflects blame. AI: "I apologize for the confusion" is reflexive, not felt. ✅ 9 out of 10.

@DamiDina yes, you can 100% achieve animations that are quick and snappy with AI built code with CSS only or a variety of libraries, i do this a lot. but my main point here is canvas exploration without the limitation of “coding it” is still very much a valuable part of my process

@mds have you tried the motion library in code too? i think what i interpret here is that figma's default auto animate just makes thing pop more and also their default presets for animation types are easy to use
