🚨 Indian defencetech startup Armory is putting their indigenous anti-drone jammer system into production.

After securing a ₹100 crore order from the Ministry of Defence, @ArmoryShield has built a one-acre factory in Gurugram to manufacture their modular C-UAS, SURGE.

"We are so back..."
Well, it was never over for us to begin with.
A beautiful morning to manufacture in Bharat. #SurgeOffToTheFrontline

[Armory @ArmoryShield]

SURGE headed where it belongs - the frontline.
Now manufacturing for Indian defence forces. 🇮🇳

There is zero reason E bikes cant look like this. Tech bros are cowards.

Google's 20+ designers with $300k+ salaries and their design system

[Aditya @DesignOpine]

i see these illustrations on any app or website and i fuck off so far from it they can't convince me to use their product if they paid me for it.

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

@darylginn Not gonna happen when you’re not actively licking each other’s butt in the name of “networking” because recruiters and hiring managers have brainpower of brainrotten tiktok idiots

The world's busiest airport. A megahub for global connecting flights. Over 100,000 passengers stranded. Brought to its knees by a bunch of drones.
The menace is only getting worse.

[Armory @ArmoryShield]

Current war economics are disproportionate and conventional.

The math of these modern conflicts barely adds up. Crores to defend. Thousands to just dismantle it.

We, the folks at Armory, are not okay with that.
If you want comfort, this isn’t it.
If you want impact and work with a high agency and low tolerance for mediocrity, come build where it actually matters.
Where we create products like SURGE that challenge standards of defence systems, and raise them.

@KaranGoyalbuild @SharangShakti @deepigoyal @surobhidas @lataerospace Massive. Congratulations to you and the team.

design systems shouldnt have died. they shouldn't have been standardised either. there is a reason most apps/sites look the same garbage because everyone just decided to use templatised systems like ant/shad etc. for speed and stopped designing shit that looks great

[DANN© @DannPetty]

Since “design systems are dead”, can we go back to calling them style guides?

[Aditya @DesignOpine]

i've recently been visiting the hospital a lot for whatever reasons but yesterday was the 3rd incident where I have seen a @letsblinkit ambulance bring in someone in an emergency in a span of 4 months. stellar job man @albinder

[Armory @ArmoryShield]

A bunch of defence enthusiasts, manually detecting a drone before SURGE gets a chance to.

#testing

[Amardeep Singh @singhamardeep]

Today marks 2 years of Armory!

Really intense phase but I haven’t felt more alive in a decade. Hard problems. High stakes. Random curveballs. And a race against time.

My first stint with defence was incomplete & I am back to see it through this time.

This is my homecoming!

[Armory @ArmoryShield]

Anatomy of our pew pewer 🔫.

[Armory @ArmoryShield]

No more surprises.
