Creator // Remodeler // Designer. I make vector images and maintain websites with my bare hands. 🇺🇸

How the hell are we suppose to design interfaces for something that doesn’t need them??

[Jason Ottinger @jottin]

Battled Claude today in a design showdown. Bounced ideas off each other until a concept was born. The end result was rather telling. How it handles language is undefeated, but how it connects an idea to an emotion visually isn’t.

Anthropic has built the 8th wonder of the world… I should give them 20 bucks.

Today, I asked ai to create a css layout from a screenshot (using specific markup). The result was very dreamweaverish.

So this week, I developed an email analytics platform to help me at work. Not planned, not required, zero budget. This is the future of tech. Fyi, I’m not a programmer.

Is it me or is iOS 26 slow af?

[Jason Ottinger @jottin]

@DannPetty Does anyone create “mockups” anymore?

[Jason Ottinger @jottin]

And I’ve put off installing it until some connected devices stopped working. The glass divs already feel dated. 👏

Apple has lost their mind with iOS 26. Jesus the UI is overdone.

@DannPetty Been making web products since 2006. Never used PS, Fig, or Sk. Learned CSS and embraced SVG when it was the right time. Claude is amazing. Great time to expand your skills and become a 🦄.

The surging number of brain-rot videos got me pinwheelin’.

[Jason Ottinger @jottin]

Claude is pretty f’ing amazing.

[Jason Ottinger @jottin]

Never thought I’d be writing anything other than CSS, but damn AI.

[Jason Ottinger @jottin]

@DannPetty Honestly, it’s about charging what you’re comfortable with to get by. No more. No less. IMO, making too little or too much will crush you.

[Jason Ottinger @jottin]

Ironic how AI is making the web more accessible now (like it use to be). Good example is how so many sites block content until an account is created. 👎 AI lets you dance around that sh!+

With twitters 20ya coming, anyone with an original account that’s 20yo should get verified w/o paying a dime.

Made the @Apple logo in Freeform using shapes and symmetry. Where the hell is flip on axis?

[Jason Ottinger @jottin]

Content is digested so differently now. Automated. Quick. Habit forming. Very little is surprising. Nothing like the old days when tweeting your last bowel movement was memorable.
