@bnj @karrisaarinen @variantui @figma Once CC/Cursor has Figma functionality, we’ll do it by hand in browser, and skip handoff.

@JerimiahLee @marshal You can tell its Raleigh by the fresh clay stains on a new build 😭

[Nick Lala @_nicklala]

@itsmechase @frantzfries @edsuh @Trace_Cohen Because every function outside of design uses it?

@zeeg @positiveblue2 You can connect a domain to it, a database, and auth in under 5 minutes with no code experience and launch it. Those features will also create lock in.

@bnj @karrisaarinen @yitong I find most designers are spanning across multiple squads of engineers, solving problems. Those engineers are then working on tiny parts, very deep. Also to say designers benefit from “big companies on their resume” or that some aren’t tinkerers is no different from devs.

@karrisaarinen Funding, network, competent cofounders. I would wager it has nothing to do with their ability to create a vision or design a company. It’s the building and distribution of said product that takes resources most designers won’t have readily available.

@Stammy @aaron_epstein What is a “pm-like task”? I hard disagree with you take that most designers can’t do PM work but saying you need PM like tasks to be a founder feels waaaay off.

@flyosity I feel like its obvious everything is going to be contextual, like most of iOS, and they’re setting up for that. Thinking your experience with Photos as a utility vs app definitely feels like your experience is not like most Apple users.

@JanLosert @webflow They tried to increase my cost 100x based on “CDN usage” that wasn’t listed in pricing or tracked anywhere. Negotiated down but ultimately moved away.

[Nick Lala @_nicklala]

@j5p @webflow It’s been brewing for awhile, unfortunately they seem desperate at this point. Can’t recommend anyone stay with @webflow.

@MartinBekerman @figma Moved mine over, and immediately got the message I could "only have 3 pages". Are all your drafts less than 3 pages?

[Nick Lala @_nicklala]

@zoink @DannPetty @negativespaceca @figma Adding shared view of files across personal and work accounts would be a great way to help this transition, vs trying to sell it as a workflow improvement, imo.

@ramit @PaulyPropBets Hes saying you cant include how much you’ve spent on renos, and the interest it would have accumulated. Dude is still just trolling for engagement. He says he rented for 20 years but can’t compete with profits in the last 6. Imagine if he ran the numbers back to buying in 2004.

[Nick Lala @_nicklala]

@LorilynWilson @ramit Why not buy a cheaper place? All this talk from @ramit against buying but if he could afford the house he WANTS, he would never rent again.

[Nick Lala @_nicklala]

@ramit I’m a fan but you’re just pandering this point, the fake outrage is a little much. Most of the top comments are just pointing out you’re using “investment” as a strawman argument for why people shouldn’t buy homes. But maybe it’s just an incredibly subjective decision?

[Nick Lala @_nicklala]

@Shpigford @maybe @rails Lol 😂 he blocked me

[Nick Lala @_nicklala]

@Shpigford @maybe @rails You were making good progress so definitely makes sense you would completely change course again.

[Nick Lala @_nicklala]

@ramit @brergnat In the 3 or 4 HCOL cities maybe? Interest rates were 2%! 0 down payments! Then you roll that equity into a massive down payment, tax efficient. This era has been a major L for most renters outside those major cities.

[Nick Lala @_nicklala]

@ramit @brergnat If your rent is same as a mortgage, what money are you putting in the stock market?
