Designers, tomorrow I join @mindaugaslt.bsky.social for an exclusive session on the Truth About Designer Portfolios: A Founder's Perspective. It’s for Coho customers, but they reserved a few seats under “Friends of Cat Noone” ticket type at sign up. Come hang with us! lu.ma/ut6rt4pr/

3 hours to debug an issue in code. I want to delete the entire app to [somehow, stick with me here] spite the code for behaving this way...

Thanks to my Intern (Claude) for being super encouraging knowing good and well that zero double checking of the documentation occurred. 😂

Cursor screenshot showing a bash command to "npm create @shadcn/ui@latest". Claude is being super encouraging saying "we'll get it sorted!" despite giving the incorrect installation information.

Claude confirming that it, in fact, was using the wrong shadcn/ui documentation to install it only after I corrected it.

I will always remember pitching Paul for a donation back in like 2015 or 2016—as a YC alum—and he sat there bragging and laughing about how much money he had, but refused to donate any (to my org). Jessica is the one that gave much later Of course he can’t recognize evil 🧵

Very excited about the new Projects feature in ChatGPT. Was super useful in Claude. Unfortunately there's currently no native feature to link previous chats automatically. You'd need to manually copy relevant content or summaries into the new project’s workspace. Hopefully it's coming!

Anybody know why the Desktop breakpoint in @framer.com wouldn't be showing for me all of a sudden?

Spent the last couple of weekends playing around with @framer.com — using a fun new thing as a playground. 1. Learning curve is low. 2. Foundational UI is simple = easy to experiment → break things → ship. 3. Accessibility in yo' face! You should look forward to more options though...soon. 😜

AI really does just run off and do its own thing if you let it. Had it change the margin-bottom of a text section at the top of my app, and it decided to do that but also completely remove the pagination of the data-table at the bottom of the app. 💀

Pro-Tip: I learned from my mistake and now push to Github fairly often. However, after any major change[s] I prompt Claude in Cursor with #GithubCommit and it prints out a title + summary.

Need some help: What are shows, software, etc. that visually embody what you think of as the "80s" style? (e.g. Squiggly lines, neon colors, etc.)

Did anybody who designed the onboarding flow for the Xbox do user testing? Because I have questions (and thoughts) after 45min of set up.

Who do we know that works on AppleBooks (Audio)? Asking so I can beg them to implement highlights/reference points instead of needing to take screenshots of time stamps → manually write down what was said. 🥲

After decades in this industry, I still believe we're converging on a future where those who make the best products will also be the most successful. Not there yet… but ever closer.

Pro-Tip: Using #Claude in #CursorAI and it sometimes over-engineers solutions — resulting in a lot of unnecessary code. Occasionally ask: "Is this the most simple and effective approach? By that I mean: [specify]".

Cursor AI interface with the Claude 3.5-Sonnet chat open. User is requesting Claude revisit the code to ensure max efficacy and simplicity of code (instead of over-engineering).
