@pintsizeox @TaylorTwellman how do you calculate 25% of a body? have you seen a body?

@figma Will these code layers run in the Figma mobile app? Will you also be able to prompt/edit from the mobile app? It's strange that these features are so desktop-centric while almost every demo is a mobile design

@karpathy have been using this exact workflow in slack for the last 6 months. It’s good for certain things but too limited in other ways, e.g. output formatting, multi-agent orchestration. I agree with your premise but either slack needs a redesign for it or it will be some other chat app

@raunofreiberg @lochieaxon It's neither dynamic nor natural; it's just jitter, irregularity, which causes anxiety, like a flickering light or a broken clock. If it was indicating actual loading activity, that would be useful, but short of that it's just burdening the user.

@TeamYouTube That's different. I'm talking about a "Premium" feature called "Continue watching" that appears in the bottom right corner of the page

[Ben @b3nl3n]

@YouTube "Continue watching" on desktop is an anti-feature. (1) No way to disable it. (2) It could just be the first rec slot instead of an overlay. (3) The way it intercepts tab focus is infuriating. Search bar is the only sane element to focus on load. How is this still so bad?

@johnbai Needs this for native apps

@BitrigApp Are projects shared/synced between the Mac and iOS apps?

@m_franceschetti Can you provide a better explanation for why scheduling and autopilot can't run locally? And why a subscription model is necessary for the basic operation of the device?

[Ben @b3nl3n]

@m_franceschetti @TravisMWhitaker So it took you *1 day* to make the product work without a connection? What's your explanation for building it without an offline mode in the first place? Just to gouge customers with an unnecessary subscription?

[Ben @b3nl3n]

@eightsleep The fact that *any* of your core hardware functionality is dependent on server connectivity and a subscription is madness. The greed and customer hostility is unfathomable, especially for a $3000+ device. Are you going to revisit how that works?

[Ben @b3nl3n]

@figma is becoming increasingly unusable for large scale work. M3 Max/64GB RAM/500Mbps connection, and the app constantly hangs, takes an eternity to open files, switch tabs, switch pages, etc. Don't even think about trying to dig something out of the version history...

@emilkowalski Nice execution but it's such a tedious workflow. If the list was anchored to the left rather than centered, you could simply open the detail content in a right-hand pane (Asana does this). You retain the context of the parent list and don't need an extra click to close the pane.

@KossHeadphones Are the TWS250i discontinued? Is a replacement planned? (My wishlist: better battery life, smaller case, more reliable bluetooth, more Koss-like sound🤞)

[Ben @b3nl3n]

@benhylak If it works it works. That said I spent a few months using one of these and found that it was making my hips really tight — the shape of the seat pushes hips inward from the sides and the front.

@PosterInternet Interviews and take-home exercises aren't fun. It's not worth a skilled employee's time to take a day of PTO to grind for 1k.

The screenshot doesn't prove your second point — those may have been genuine interviews, and the segment you're alluding to is tiny if it exists at all.

[Ben @b3nl3n]

@PosterInternet not sure what you're trying to say

[Ben @b3nl3n]

@m_franceschetti @designalily You've raised ~200MM — pay the candidate for their work if you ask them to do a take-home exercise. Shouldn't be any less than $1000/day.

@zander_supafast @figma Bummer that you can't lock the aspect ratio of objects with min/max dimensions. Would love to see Autolayout get a little closer to what you can do with CSS. Something like this should be easy in Figma https://t.co/EQOvvCII6k
