used google's new IDE for 5 minutes, was impressed, hit what I thought was a paywall but it's not a paywall, you just can't give google money? I don't understand

double opt-in for all form submissions is now available for everyone because the bots love a good form endpoint should save you money and pain, no ai needed (we can call it generative double opt-in if you promise to use it)
Loops can now automatically handle double opt-in for form submissions in a single click This release and more in this month's product update

Was I right or wrong? It’s now available everywhere
Played with Gemini 3 last week and it is so far beyond what we have today in taste, feels like we’re about to cross the uncanny valley for web design. Interesting times

if the people building your product are the people talking to your customers than empathy, understanding and priority are solved net result is a better product and happier users we have no dedicated support but we have 9 engineers talking to users
The most overlooked part of Cursor hitting $1B ARR and a $29B valuation is how they’ve been able to scale THAT fast and THAT much without a support team. And it’s because the product just works. I’ve seen firsthand at Uber and Stripe how good products are thoughtfully crafted

most flowchart editors are bad and messy you can drag and drop anywhere, overlapping lines are unclear and opening someone else’s editor is like being dropped in an unfamiliar codebase built entirely with rectangles and squiggles try something else
