I recently built an Indian Metro Sim game because I love Mini Metro and wanted to understand what makes a clean strategy game feel fun. The tiny goal: Indianize that metro-planning joy with our cities, stations, maps, chaos, rhythm, and a little desi transit drama. (1/2)

@charmiekapoor This is so thoughtful and kind of you. Huge inspiration! 🫡

I've been thinking of a creating a small fund / scholarship for designers from my personal savings. Design has given me a lot over the years, and I’ve been lucky in many ways. Want to pay some of that forward. Still figuring out the details, but I'm thinking of supporting things like AI tools, mentorship, tech gear, courses etc. Would also love to hear other ideas from the design community. If you’ve been there, what kind of support would’ve actually made a difference for you? Also do share with anyone who may benefit from something like this 🙏🏼

I started by dumping everything: work history, project notes, side projects, design opinions, boundaries, tone, even things the bot should refuse to answer. Then I turned that dump into an interview and converted it into a kishore.md, basically a source file for public Kishore context. Only after that I touched code. Planned the flows, chips, fallback answers, contact handoff, privacy bits, then gave it sprite states so it felt like a tiny portfolio companion instead of a support widget. K Bot is live now on my portfolio. Check it out: kishore.design Would love to hear your thoughts on this one!

Weekend vibe-coding project: Yesterday I turned myself into a bot. It lives on my portfolio, answers questions about my work, explains how I think, points people to the right projects, and helps them contact me without a dead little form. Built in a day with Codex. The weird part: most of the work was interviewing myself. (1/2)

@align_all Damn. this one's cool!

Let’s GO with Spotify’s way!!

What's this crazy hype behind a plastic watch? Where are we heading as a country? 🤦

@iruletheworldmo I am ready. Expecting big changes with UI capabilities. 🤞

hearing 5.6 drops next week and is a huge leap. not sure we’re ready.

@thsottiaux You sure about that?

Codex usage limits have now been reset across all paid plans. Enjoy the weekend!

@hckmstrrahul Oh dear.. This one's pretty bad. Guess it's time for another Indian product design drama. 🍿

I'm a designer, scare me with one word.

@ChettyArun @Razorpay Incredible journey, huge inspiration brother 🫡

Celebrating 11 years at @Razorpay today. A little emotional. We were under one small roof in 2015. I used to manually count transaction volume every day. The day it crossed ₹5000, I'd hop around with a big smile. Then 10k, then lakhs. Hard to believe where we are today. 1/n

This is soooo cool. This new era of vibe-coding is honestly beautiful. It lets people ship their weirdest, most creative ideas without the usual friction getting in the way.

In the age of AI slop, some of us are still making things by hand, I promise ❤️ Octocat for the new GitHub Copilot App was modeled, rigged, and animated in Blender...

Kinda makes sense. Industry needs to loosen up a bit and let creativity flow. After all, it's taste that matters right now even more than ever.

I replaced the typewriter animation in my portfolio hero because it started feeling too generic. Swapped it for a scramble text interaction using @JulianGarnier’s anime.js. Tiny detail, but the whole hero feels more alive now. The wild part is how easy this was with AI. A few years ago, I’d have spent hours wiring the animation, checking edge cases and tuning the timing. This time it was mostly: ‣ describe the interaction ‣ test it ‣ tweak the feel ‣ ship it Small reminder that building has changed.

@idevsr Thanks for the suggestions! It looks much better now :)

@GetKishore you did it 🙌 the waterfall style animation is just 👌

PixelSnake started as a tiny portfolio widget: your static GitHub contribution pixels become the legendary Snake game. I kept iterating, open sourced it, and added a wave start state from a friend’s suggestion. Game mode now hides activity pixels so the snake reads cleanly. New version first, old version second. Get this widget for your website ↓

@ashirwadsingh_ Lol! Maybe take it as a motivational cue? 🙌😀

@GetKishore Me after adding this component to my portfolio when I only have 5 contributions in the last 6 months

Without telling me your age. What is the first video game you played? GIFS ONLY!!!

@championswimmer Surprised to see Opus still leading.

Which model have you used the most to code in last 2-3 weeks ?
