product designer on side quests

@adagradschool The Newsroom is the peak of his writing. Have you watched that?

One wonderful thing about co-owning the frontend code as a designer is that you can spend your afternoon building a tiny animation like this, which otherwise could have remained a boring spinner.

the wonderful thing about being a design engineer is that now i can spend half a day getting the "thinking" shimmer right and feel good about it.

After using Codex as my daily driver, claude-code has started to feel like a vibe coded software that it is.

[Saurabh @srbsingh3]

For my first design task at my new job, I built it directly in the product codebase and handed over the branch to the engineer who'll build on top of it.

🛠️ Figma’s “Ready for dev” is becoming a GitHub branch.

I seem to be going back to cursor for speaking about UI in an existing codebase. Cursor just shows it so nicely that you can also over time understand how the code is written.

[Saurabh @srbsingh3]

Its so annoying when Claude speaks to me as if it knows me really well while completely messing up some obvious details.

I made Opus make a simple edit in an image in 6 mins that I could have done manually in 2 mins.

...Why?

...Why not?

[Saurabh @srbsingh3]

I love claude-code's bias for action, sometimes too much for my own good.

@RoyallyLost @trivialchemy Royally lost, twitter is marking you spam. Don't be an AI bot.

[Saurabh @srbsingh3]

The whole next week, I will text with my friends in AI-sounding sentences.

A new job role- Agent Jockey.

Give back more to the world than you receive from it.

til rust build artefacts took 400gb of my disk space

[Saurabh @srbsingh3]

Should it be called a bug if it was an oversight?

[Saurabh @srbsingh3]

Looks like I lost and Claude won.

[Saurabh @srbsingh3]

Who's gonna win?

Clawdbot gui is an abomination- gave me a headache.

[Saurabh @srbsingh3]

using ffmpeg on a screen recording with opus works quite well in copying micro-animations. There goes another of my moats.

[Saurabh @srbsingh3]

Early computers -> terminal interfaces = chat interfaces

modern computers -> GUI

So, modern LLM interfaces -> probably brain connected interfaces?
