I like the idea of build in public, but I hate seeing my Twitter feed filled with product specific changelog.

Not sure where to go from there🤔.

@traversymedia I’ve asked exactly this and to paraphrase my doc:

Those glasses are not useful. The best is to blink more to prevent dry eyes and eye strains. We blink about 15 times/min but when we stare at a screen we blink about 8 times/min.

@mortenjust Yes! That’ll be very useful! I know right off bet many people take screenshots of their English apps and then feed into google translate image scan to get translations.

🤯Blown away by what #dalle #dalle2 can do. This is going to be such a great tool for ideation, blog posts, and image editing!

Let's ask it to code a simple profile page for a social network — In 22 seconds flat.

Horizontal scrolling is a slightly weird choice, but sure, it works!
