@joshuapekera Incredible!

I restored a sentimental family photo for my wife’s family using our latest Muse Image model in Meta AI. The results are just incredible. This is now my preferred model for all photo restoration.

@CameronPak awesome! So cool to see it come to fruition.

Looking at some old notes and found old note from when in a church service "see if I can get a domain like faith.tools or something like that" March 10, 2024 x.com/CameronPak/sta…

@matthewmang @lukehaddock I'm so dang excited about this!

We’ve raised the expressive ceiling for Origami. Liquid Glass, shaders, HDR, ProMotion, chromatic aberration, and many more effects now available

@bartonsmith @jasperhauser Looks great!

I've always loved designing icons and still remember @jasperhauser walking me through his technique, which changed how I thought about their construction. Icons force you to find expression within rigid constraints. They require technical precision because every detail is exposed, but you also need to step back and take them in as a fuzzy whole. These icons for @north_mail are defined by their high-acceleration corners and subtle bottom curve. They will forever be a work in progress. I could sit and tinker for hours. northmail.app

I've been designing for over two decades now. About 80% of the work I've done I'm not particularly proud of. Then there's 10% I feel okay about, and 10% I am in fact proud of. The pride I occasionally feel isn't necessarily linked to a particular achievement or a big brand name, but rather how I look and judge my own work after I look at it again years later. This is the part that's hard to explain to people outside of Design. The reason I still love this is because I get up every morning and I am still not satisfied with my work. I know I can do better, and everyday I got to try again and again (: Curious how I will feel about it in another two decades. I'll let you know.

The teacher was so shock that he froze and said to himself that, what have I created? 😂

@AlBuffalo2nite It’s simple that guy is a mentalist and blew their minds by guessing a name. It’s coincidental that happened at the same time..

Watch it closely… That face doesn’t just change… it transforms. From composed… to alert… to something far deeper. You can see the exact moment the atmosphere shifts. Joy drains… tension floods in… and then— fear. Not confusion… not curiosity… fear. That is the look of someone who just felt something change in the room before the rest of the world caught up. Something triggered it. Something real enough to override composure in seconds. That wasn’t random. That was a human nervous system recognizing a threat in real time. And if you slow it down… you’ll see it. #SilentMajoritySpeaks #AStoneGroove

@claudeai design usage limit already 😭.. Nooo. Was having so much fun..

@btn0s @24palettes @createwithplay 100% agree.

@msawmiller @24palettes @createwithplay yeah i’m just always going to have a sweet spot for node graphs

Serious question, what are you guys using to prototype these days. It was so sad to see @createwithplay go

@btn0s @24palettes @createwithplay Prototyping this with Claude and swift isn’t too hard either.

@msawmiller @24palettes @createwithplay

@btn0s @24palettes @createwithplay I heard it’s in discussion.

@msawmiller @24palettes @createwithplay still wish it was open source :( i want to build plugins!

@naturaln0va Congrats dude!

What an honor to be apart of this world-class team! It was an exciting process rebranding Clay. Looking forward to what's next.

@PixelJanitor @Cabelas Awesome!

My littlest dude living his best life. He’d have his birthday party at Cabela’s if he could.

@brycedriesenga @weberwongwong That could be really cool!

@weberwongwong @msawmiller Could see lots of possibilities, but a couple ideas: - image and text nodes into a code node that builds a web component or page based on the image aesthetics, etc - image node into a custom shader code node (optionally generated). Outputs code or video or image

here's an example of Cat (a forward-deployed creative on our team from Pentagram) using the image editor in FLORA to composite generated layers + imported text layers

@weberwongwong Some inspiring things in here: figma.com/design/R7PjmBd…

@msawmiller I see, makes sense. yeah interesting to hear your thoughts - I'm thinking about stuff in this space but not sure if I've fully conceptualized the right approach yet

@weberwongwong Possibly.. nodes.io/story/ sketching in code section in here kinda jumps into it. Coming from a VPL background, and less so programming, I want to understand the building blocks of what I created for learnings, and repurposing.

@msawmiller interesting makes sense. do you envision a bunch of code nodes where each one is the representation of one agent run, and you can click into one of the nodes to try that version of the app?

One thing FLORA nails is experimentation. You can pursue multiple streams of thought at once. Most agent building today feels very linear. Prompt → result → tweak → repeat. A node-based IDE could unlock more branching exploration. Building blocks + visual flows create way more mental pathways.

@msawmiller interesting. so in your view, the node-graph would represent how an agent would approach building a web app?

@weberwongwong Yes. I actually think the traditional IDE dies. If agents are generating the code, the hard part becomes understanding the system behind it. The future IDE probably looks more like a visual graph for observing and shaping agent behavior.

@msawmiller like a code IDE?
