Eventually i'll embarass myself here but i vibe'd yet another Claude <> Obsidian second brain only that it's not Obsidian, but @craftdocs. It's called cutowiki: github.com/cutolo/your-cu…

@charlieholtz One of the easiest and non-dev friendly softwares i ever touched, great work @charlieholtz !! My tiny, feature request as somebody that in uncapable of get git right without visualizing it: please add a git-tree tab! ❤️

We've re-built Conductor from scratch to make it twice as fast. Creating tabs, switching workspaces, and rendering files are all 50% faster, memory usage is lower, and the app is 150 MB smaller. Introducing Conductor Allegro!

Learn to code. Learn t̶o̶ ̶c̶o̶d̶e̶. L̶e̶a̶r̶n̶ ̶t̶o̶ code.

FWIW designers (like myself) used to code. Then in 2013, React came out, and craftwork became dependency management and CI. Effectively, boxing many of us out.

Hey Claude do whatever the fuck you want man make mistakes even fuck it

If you thought your company's edge was "how fast you ship", you're in for a rude awakening. Everyone can ship fast now. Obviously, not everyone can ship tastefully, with quality and restraint in mind. That's the new edge.

A good indicator of good taste is if someone inherently likes something obscure and later a lot more people start liking that thing as well. Liking Dieter Rams in 2026 isn't exactly a strong signal for good taste, despite it being great design.

@sama Excusatio non petita, accusatio manifesta

First, the good part of the Anthropic ads: they are funny, and I laughed. But I wonder why Anthropic would go for something so clearly dishonest. Our most important principle for ads says that we won’t do exactly this; we would obviously never run ads in the way Anthropic depicts them. We are not stupid and we know our users would reject that. I guess it’s on brand for Anthropic doublespeak to use a deceptive ad to critique theoretical deceptive ads that aren’t real, but a Super Bowl ad is not where I would expect it. More importantly, we believe everyone deserves to use AI and are committed to free access, because we believe access creates agency. More Texans use ChatGPT for free than total people use Claude in the US, so we have a differently-shaped problem than they do. (If you want to pay for ChatGPT Plus or Pro, we don't show you ads.) Anthropic serves an expensive product to rich people. We are glad they do that and we are doing that too, but we also feel strongly that we need to bring AI to billions of people who can’t pay for subscriptions. Maybe even more importantly: Anthropic wants to control what people do with AI—they block companies they don't like from using their coding product (including us), they want to write the rules themselves for what people can and can't use AI for, and now they also want to tell other companies what their business models can be. We are committed to broad, democratic decision making in addition to access. We are also committed to building the most resilient ecosystem for advanced AI. We care a great deal about safe, broadly beneficial AGI, and we know the only way to get there is to work with the world to prepare. One authoritarian company won't get us there on their own, to say nothing of the other obvious risks. It is a dark path. As for our Super Bowl ad: it’s about builders, and how anyone can now build anything. We are enjoying watching so many people switch to Codex. There have now been 500,000 app downloads since launch on Monday, and we think builders are really going to love what’s coming in the next few weeks. I believe Codex is going to win. We will continue to work hard to make even more intelligence available for lower and lower prices to our users. This time belongs to the builders, not the people who want to control them.

If you put the Apple icons in reverse it looks like the portfolio of someone getting really really good at icon design

As it should be, let's be honest

@skuwamoto @figma Full parity with W3C conventions on flexbox and css grids.

Hi folks. Quick @figma question. If you had to choose, would you rather us work on... 1) Making auto layout easier to understand and use 2) Adding features to make auto layout more powerful (e.g., proportional sizing of children)?

@sdw And I can say all your works reflect your own lived experiences, shaped firsthand and not filtered through a screen or borrowed from someone else’s feed. They really don’t make designers like this anymore :)

I ran away from home when I was 15. Moved in with my high school girlfriend. She had one of these. I built my entire career with this thing and a pirated copy of Photoshop, working til wee hours on digital art with no clear idea as to why. Just because I felt compelled to create stuff. I customized it to make it look and feel like a Mac. I started making little icons and bits of UI in Photoshop. Four years later and after having gotten my first MacBook I got an email from Apple asking if I wanted to interview to join the design team to work on a new thing they just released called the iPhone. Forever grateful for this silly plastic machine.

Wow. Design is harder than I remembered. So many boxes.

A look at Wolt's new icons

30 years and people still think that Adobe features work in real life exactly like showed in their demos.

This is definitely from @mundfish's Atomic Heart.

@danmall don't know if today was day one but definitely worth to have it since day one :D

To be clear, nobody is doing anything wrong. But corporate incentives hold back our internet more than we know. If you’re a reporter, go ask Google directly: “Do you ship new features to Chrome if people LOVE them but they hurt search query volume in testing?” The answer is NO!
