Using ai should be sold more on quality of life, case and point: My son killed his laptop, minecraft witdrawl symptons where strong so lent him my macbook. left my profile open running claude code , and remote controlled into it while he ws playing. testing the ios app as i went on my phone, while reorganising my shed, which would be a weekend chore. now i got more time to spend with my kids
Iโve almost dropped using figma. Infact, writing this post, i realised i should . Iโm only using it creating logos and icons. Plenty of software that does that for free (afinitybdesigner).
The best design system is the one thats in code. All a design system is a collection of numerical parameters and font choices.
Set your grid, type sizes colours, in your design.md and fine tune as you go, creating a webpage or flutter app etc so you can see all your components in code. If you need feedback or notes - get your ai to build it into the design system and add an export function.
Dillies and dallied on my medication notification launch, getting beta testing feedback all in and making for a desirable, solidly feature product for launch.
Coming very soon pending apple approval. ๐๐
Change is the only constant in life. Ferrariโs all look different, all prior Ferrariโs have an engine. This is an entirely different vehicle with different design constraints - huge battery + Aero requirements change the game. Launching in that blue and not Ferrari red was a BOLD choice.
@skirano Unfortunately, the Pizza shown is not historically accurate - tomatoes are of South American origin and didn't come to Italy until the 16th century. @grok can you confirm
All ways have a design system even its basic, pain in the ass to change hard coded values, easy to update token based etc.
Taste can be achieved by establishin constraints as parameters to work within. context on intended audience/user helps, what exists brands/ experiences similarly reflect what you want to achieve
Struggling to use all these AI as a voice entry mode. Talking in public and doing it at home alone, both have me questioning my sanity. This is coming from someone thats not that self-conscious. @neuralink, when can I talk to my computer without exercising my vocal cords at any kind of amplitude
I literally provided the reason, and a map, of the interconnect for downtown Vancouver, the TRUNK carrier line for THE WHOLE COUNTRY to Asia runs out of downtown Vancouver. I literally showed a photo of an existing data center in Downtown Vancouver that exists, and has for 20+ years, bothering nobody, every single large-ish city *in the world* has data centers downtown already. I am an expert in this subject, I was on the founding team and the head of strategy at one of the largest cloud providers in the world. Here is a data center the size of a city block in the middle of Manhattan. Having personally racked servers inside it, I can assure you the traffic and tourists outside are considerably louder and causes considerably more issues for the community than a building full of computers.
@pmarca Anyone who worked in digital in late 90โs early 00โs just knows. Last two decades i worked at places full of physical bloatware. Office politics is 90% of the work. Vile.
