Yesterday we started a Works But Makes Noises design group chat on @OutputApp! What's so cool is @allanyu_ & @jcb are evolving the platform daily; away from a Slack-like space, towards a fun group chat app. Flying with them as they build the plane around us! – Come join! ⬇️🔗

[Jacob 🇪🇺 @jheftmann]

I loved this convo with longtime friend @allanyu_. I related 100% to the feeling of being young and not being able to understand (/listen well enough) what a team or organization needed from me. Age/experience/wisdom is real!

[Allan Yu @allanyu_]

Got to chat with @dmcgco and @jheftmann about how I know what being a good employee means, and how we're integrating ᴬᴵ

✨ New Works But Makes Noises Episode [009]

In this episode me & @jheftmann get nerdy on how agentic coding is flipping our design process.

Robot vacuum fleets, Claude code experiments, closed loop workflows, & the death of wireframes. It's got it all.

This one was a lot of fun – recorded straight from Downtown Brooklyn right before IRL co-host hangs upstate.

Also, stickers!!

Neither historical nor futuristic, GT Canon marks a defining chapter in our search for a universal serif.

We added a new feature on Works But Makes Noises that I’m too excited about…

If you’re listening on Apple Podcasts app with the latest iOS, the cover art now updates dynamically in real time as you listen to the show to display the design we’re currently talking about! 🔗⬇️

[Jacob 🇪🇺 @jheftmann]

@eliofmendes @dmcgco great suggestion. seems like they've definitely taken a very deliberate approach. if you know anyone in design @claudeai would love an intro!
