Insane to see the iOS simulator in Codex.

iOS dev is about to get way easier with this plugin.

[Ridd 🤿 @ridd_design]

a part of building with AI that still blows my mind is that you can:

1) feed Claude a video
2) tell it to break it into frames with ffmpeg
3) reverse engineer an animation/interaction

Introducing the Conductor Browser!

- ⌘⇧B to get a live preview of your app
- Automatic port detection
- Built in Agentation to highlight and comment

[OpenAI Developers @OpenAIDevs]

More of the iOS app loop, now inside Codex.

The Build iOS Apps plugin lets Codex view and test your iOS app in the in-app browser, open SwiftUI previews, and hot reload edits without leaving Codex.

"Engineering, product, and design are all merging into a 'builder' role"

Yeah... I'm not so sure. This feels like an oversimplification and podcast talking point. Reality is a lot more complex.

Even with 1000 "Member of Technical Staff" titles, someone still has to wake up and care 100x more about Product or Design than anyone else. It is their Main Thing™

That's not to say MTS titles are universally bad, but I think they're an example of this 'builder' talking point that's become bastardized.

AI and coding agents have made generating code easy and yet... you're in for a world of pain if non-engineers ship a bunch of slop and don't have great engineers to tame the complexity.

The SF hivemind has a tendency to overfit what works at startups for every company. And to be fair, sometimes this is true! Startups can be a leading indicator for how the industry is changing and often cause disruption.

However, it is going to be incredibly hard to disrupt the extremely human parts of corporate jobs. You really think there's going to be a PM who also does some engineering and design on the side at JPMorgan Chase?

This is true for the simple parts of most jobs, like people wanting to have ownership over something and do good work, move up a career ladder, support their family, get paid well, make an honest living...

And also the hard parts: internal politics, some critical business system that has a bus factor of 1 which has been running for 15 years and isn't documented anywhere because it's that guy's job security. The real world has a lot of this stuff.

It's easy to pontificate about all roles collapsing but it's actually really nice to have a specific person or team who is an expert in one thing that you can work with. I don't expect that to change. Further, I think AI disruption to knowledge work will take decades to play out because it is more fundamental to the human condition (e.g. sociological/organizational) than pure intelligence.

One of the most important things I’ve learned over the years is that great work is never built alone. Be kind, respect your team, share credit, name the people who helped, and never leave anyone behind.

Added a clipboard tab to Cubby.

Now, everything that passes through my clipboard is logged on a chronological feed. Felt like an obvious missing piece since creating this menubar shelf a few weeks ago.

Three tabs called for this icon-only treatment on the unselected tabs.

I love this. I’ve always had a soft spot for wood styling. Probably cuz my gmail has had a wood theme for the past 10-15 years.

Even on screen, it feels so cozy.

[Tobias van Schneider @vanschneider]

Finally working on implementing this.

Don't worry, we will adjust this for light and dark mode and it will be a quite a bit more subtle and minimalistic and not wood( although I could get convinced to add an option switch into the settings).

[Graham Bunt @gtbunt]

Interesting

[judah @joodalooped]

too many people assume that "intent" is what the UI of the future is about

in truth, intent is cognitively expensive and the job of interfaces is to conserve effort as much as possible

[BuccoCapital Bloke @buccocapital]

Everyone is going insane. Employees are going insane. Executives are going insane. Investors are going insane. Politicians are going insane. Citizens are going insane

Collective AI psychosis

If you sit back and think about it for a even minute it’s completely surreal

Our 2026 Design in AI Report is now live!

This report is the culmination of thousands of people hours and many late nights to create what we believe is the most comprehensive, well-researched report capturing and synthesizing the state of Design + AI today.

While we used AI in many areas, a report like this still required deep thinking, grit, and humans coming together to do what they do best.

The final report spans nearly 20k words covering the survey results of over 900 people paired with dozens of qualitative interviews.

Over the coming months we will also release 7 beautiful case studies showing how top design teams are working on the ground featuring designers at @AnthropicAI, @framer, @linear, @NotionHQ, @Shopify, @SierraPlatform, and @stripe.

This work is a true labor of love to help guide a design community we hold so dear.

Link in the comments and please let us know what you think. Your feedback helps us shape how we will evolve this work over the coming years...

[melike turgut @me____likex]

I was the original designer of Instants at Instagram.

Seeing it finally launch globally is surreal, but this thing was ready years ago. It just had to survive the machine first. 1/6

An affliction of the times: Rushing

What a bogus way to live. Rushing out of bed to the coffee machine to the desk. Rushing to finish one book so you can read another on your list. Rushing to finish the month so you can get to the holiday.

How aweful. Living for the peaks and ignoring everything inbetween. Slowwwwww down you baboon. Enjoy today. Enjoy now. Breeeathe you fool.

Enjoy the joe. Enjoy your dinner. Enjoy the security you have. Enjoy the round of golf youre playing. Enjoy the book youre into. Why does it always have to be next next next next. Chill out. Its right in front of you.

Spotted in the NYC subway. “Zero screen time.” An iPod Shuffle ad in 2026.

When we built the iPod, the goal was the technology disappeared and you could have your music wherever you were. 1,000 songs in your pocket.

Now we’re living through a moment where people are actively looking for ways to disconnect from the infinite feed, algos, and constant notifications. That doesn’t mean technology is bad. It means the best technology understands when to step back.

Not every problem needs another screen, another menu, or another layer of complexity. Constraints create freedom (read: @DavidEpstein new book Inside the Box). And often removing features creates a better product than adding them.

The future of technology shouldn’t just be more engagement. It should help us be more human.

[DAN KOE @thedankoe]

The 2-4 hours you spend scrolling each day (or 730-1460 hours each year) is more than enough time to write a book, build a business, or get in shape. In the moment, it seems like nothing. That's why it's so dangerous. Your time disappears without you being conscious of it.

Cubby is a lightweight shelf for strings & screenshots.

I shoulda bought a kindle for a loooong time ago. It’s so much better.

Get a pop socket for it too.
