Metaverse in NYT (2007): “John Maeda isn't real, nor is the island. He is the Resident, and the island is the Metaverse in the virtual world of the Second Life online game. Other works exhibited are a beige Apple II computer, and a dozen or so iPod Nanos.” nytimes.com/2007/05/04/sty…

I don't know what possessed @lennysan to want to interview me. But, so he did. We talked about a lot of things that I think are fun: malleable software, taste, the core identity of products, and agency. Lenny is a very gracious interviewer. Thanks for having me.

"We already have universal basic income. It's called knowledge work." Max Schoening (@mschoening) is one of the deepest thinkers on how AI is changing how we build and use software. He's also what the future of product leadership looks like. He's head of product at @NotionHQ, was VP of Design (and a part-time engineer) at @GitHub, head of design at @Heroku, a PM at Google, and a 2x founder. In our in-depth conversation, we discuss: 🔸 What’s worked in getting designers and PMs to fully embrace AI 🔸 Why agency—not skills—is the thing that separates people who will thrive 🔸 Max’s “tiny core” theory of great products: iPhone multitouch, the GitHub pull request, Dropbox’s menu bar icon 🔸 How the first 10% of every project is now “free,” and what that means for product development 🔸 Why the amount of software has exploded but the quality hasn’t, and why that gap creates opportunity Listen now 👇 youtu.be/mCO-D3pkviM

More context isn’t always better. @JohnMaeda explains why agentic systems need a “clean molt” trimming unnecessary context to avoid noise, confusion, and degraded results. #CozyAIKitchen episodes: msft.it/6019vH4BR

Here's @johnmaeda's second tip from #SXSW: use a tuned harness to shape how models behave, from prompting to tool calling. Tools like GitHub Copilot CLI make it a lot easier to go from “interesting” to actually useful. #GitHubCopilot SDK: msft.it/6017vEQMf

P.S. Fun fact - I contributed a handful of PRs to Claude Design, which are all long since obsolete. I did a little bit of work on the file screen, the composer, and some other random things.

AX: Design saved the day back in 2010. But this next wave of Agentic Experiences (AX) open.substack.com/pub/usefulmba/… will prove to be quite different compared to what gets practiced today. Why do I care? When I was younger, I had the opportunity to meet Clayton Christensen through the now long gone Tribeca Film Festival Disruptor Awards program. I was a big fan of Christensen’s work “The Innovator’s Dilemma,” especially because I was of the age that could remember a company called Kodak that missed the shift to digital photography from pure chemistry. At the time, it felt unimaginable that film negatives would go away. Disruption is an uncomfortable thing to experience. It generally feels desirable to wish the ongoing change to just disappear. Unfortunately that’s not a good strategy to bet on if you aren’t correct. But if you understand how we got here, and you know how to speak machine, then I believe you will have the tools with which to take action. In that spirit, I’m doing a slow-mo version of the report in good ole-fashioned chunks. —JM — Slow motion #DesignInTech: open.substack.com/pub/usefulmba/… 50-minute video format: designintech.report

My dear front-end developers (and anyone who’s interested in the future of interfaces): I have crawled through depths of hell to bring you, for the foreseeable years, one of the more important foundational pieces of UI engineering (if not in implementation then certainly at least in concept): Fast, accurate and comprehensive userland text measurement algorithm in pure TypeScript, usable for laying out entire web pages without CSS, bypassing DOM measurements and reflow
