As a lifelong druggie, being sober now (and for the past few years) rules.

Perhaps it is time to begin again

I made an app to do latency arbitrage trading in the terminal. Can agents and bots make me rich?

Moreover, wasn’t it the leaders of this new team (national design studio) that came in through DOGE and essentially ousted the long-standing 18F and USDS teams that did incredible gov software work over the previous 10 years?

What are you using for a markdown editor these days? iA Writer? Obsidian? Just your IDE?

Who’s hiring well-seasoned product designers in NYC right now? I’m looking for a new FT role And I *really* want to move back to NYC after a short hiatus

Building a Rust app to make live trades on prediction markets with a TUI is a whole new world. My brain is 🍳

Is this the correct way to think about how this works? Cc @leerob @ryolu_ 1. Make temporary visual changes, like using (a more powerful) “inspect element” in a browser 2. Add this as context to a chat 3. The agent runs per usual to write code to match the temporary change

Native mobile apps can generate real revenue and income. We can stop busting our (entire) butts building things for someone else, and build products that we own. Now, easier than ever. We can build a portfolio of revenue-generating apps instead of building just a single startup.

There’s a LOT of slop… and therefore a significant advantage and opportunity for designers (that were coding pre-AI*) to step up and win. *the ability to craft interfaces, interactions, and animations, in code and outside of prompts, saves tokens and yields superior results.

2026 is going to be the year of the Indie Solo Developer. It’s becoming increasingly easier to build full-featured native mobile apps with AI. Personally, I think @reactnative and @expo will be having their @reactjs and @nextjs moment.

If you’re not following subwaytakes on ig, are you actually online?

Fine-tuning the details of this screen has been so rewarding - Subtle parallax scroll of the poster image - Header bg and title animation - Pull-down zoom animation of the poster image It all feels natural and expected for this type of UI, yet had to be meticulously crafted

Last year I learned the ins-and-outs of React Native development in the process of designing the Bubble Native Mobile Apps editor. Such a huge unlock for being able to better vibe code mobile apps now. Having a blast mastering new materials to build with again.

Healing and rebuilding my nervous system has been the most difficult challenge I’ve faced in my life. The brain doesn’t instantly reset. I’ve made much progress, but man, I still have a lot of recalibration to do.
