@eringriffith This is sad. I really admired the hard work and scrappiness from that team. Hope that this doesn’t become a death sentence, and they can become a better company as a result.

A detailed and brutal look at the tactics of buzzy AI compliance startup Delve "Delve built a machine designed to make clients complicit without their knowledge, to manufacture plausible deniability while producing exactly the opposite." substack.com/home/post/p-19…

Project Hail Mary was fantastic. Lord and Miller are geniuses. They would have done a great job with a live action marvel movie.

It's pretty rare that I find a tweet so offensive that I don't even want to repost it. But, here we are. This is Zohran Mamdani's wife, writing about Gay people. The mask is off.

With the Apple Vision Pro, you don’t feel like you’re sitting in economy class. It’s like being in my entertainment room or a cinema! Plus, the airplane entertainment screen is so outdated. I’m grateful for the invention of the #AppleVisionPro Thanks @tim_cook #SpatialComputing

Looking for some amazing designer: Someone who will redesign our screen.studio website. We want it to feel like Apple landing pages, but with some unique personality. Do you know someone? Only extremely strong portfolios please

Can people stop building these slop machine apps? Designers don’t want to use them and they address only a fraction of the product design process. These don’t save anyone anytime and just introduce more garbage into the ecosystem.

@rocoberryyo Yes, there’s a central material design team that builds out the design system. There’s the public facing system for android devs and the internal Google branded version. Then individual teams usually have their own fork of the system to suit their product.

@bengold I'm honestly curious is there some kind of must-follow manual-design system at Google? so weird how similar UX quirks show up across so many services. They have insanely talented devs and designers, but it so weird this happen to most Google services. My nitpicks ~_~

I wonder if they’ll adapt Children of Dune and God Emperor of Dune. I just want to see how they would do Leto II turning into a sandworm.

@johnennis @leeovery I feel like these tools are appropriate for small project sites in the same way using a Squarespace template is. I think I’m just bothered by the idea of people thinking a large enterprise could use them.

@rocoberryyo The latest version of Android honestly looks like it was vibe coded by AI, but I know for a fact it wasn’t because I was at Google while it was being designed lol

@loporium These designs aren’t insane. I use AI in my design process now, but AI is pretty shit at design still. 90% of the time they’re using react component libraries and frameworks and free fonts, so everything just looks the same.

@timusR69 Having navigation elements that take you to different games could cause UX issues and limit control options. Also, in general, vibe coded games are often just knockoffs of existing games, which is what this video seems to show. I wouldn’t bother shipping this.

@zoecabina Only incel dudes post shit like this. I know plenty of women who are madly in love with dudes that outside observers would consider “below their league” physically. Women are often a lot less shallow about appearances than men.

@bengold 90% of "designers" are human slop machines. Go to fiverr or any other place to find a designer, it's beyond crap for the most part. Stitch will not replace great human designers it will replace all the slop crap designers
