@hthieblot IMDB. It was the one of the first useful websites. As a designer, still think about k10k.

@benjitaylor Nice, 2x-tap is great for my instant dumping ground of read later or reference material.

Long-press too?

I am a gross reject.
Somehow I seem to have done ok.

@JGriesler I’m not fighting cannabis reform in any way shape or form.

My view is that cannabis needs tight toxicity controls and labeling. It is turning an entire generation of users into zombies. I find it gross - smells awful and regular users become rejects.

Build-whatever-I-want captures how I feel each day now. Also, nice work by @benlaudesign.

Today on building whatever I want, a Chinese calligraphy art and learning tool

@joshpuckett @colmtuite We were talking about this the other day! Looks like they named some things that don't really describe themselves. Now everything suffers as a result.

@krispuckett I would not work for a company that doesn’t give unlimited use of whatever

You can also thank @linear, which is apparently where we yoinked it. 🙏

@benjitaylor 32 years designing for me and I agree. Early internet was cool af tho.

@Stammy @dhh Best naturally aspirated V8 for sure. I had a 16M too. It was up there, but not like this.

“You have an obligation, if you sell a product or service and you make a lot of money on it, to put that money back into the system. Send some of that money to the craftsmen of Italy to create you a beautiful Ferrari.”
- @dhh

I did this. Some folks got upset. Others didn't. That Ferrari turned out to be how I met my business parter @davidmarcus. Best thing I ever bought.

@benjitaylor Always so good.

[Geoff Teehan @gt]

@guhrodrrigues looks great

Tiny https://t.co/WHlfVW6SnT update. Sometimes I’d be working in Cursor and want to update a project or add a task without switching contexts. You can now give an agent access to your workspace.
A new option in Settings allows you to paste the MCP URL and token into whatever you use. It’ll then add and edit rows on your behalf.

I think writing is important, even if people don't read it. I spent the last week building a place for our design team to write (they'll make it better lol). Here's a sneak peek.

@lightspark There is a lot of inspiration in this design from @aave.
Their stuff is clean af and I love it. Feel free to disagree, but I think more people need to realize it's cool to say you riffed, tweaked, or were inspired by something great. Just make it your own and give credit.

[Geoff Teehan @gt]

@lightspark Frictionless commenting, if people are cool.

[Geoff Teehan @gt]

@ridd_design Thanks for sharing and for the kind words. I had it as invite only until now. Needed to harden some stuff up for public use. But y’all can have at it.
