I've been so eager to share this interview since the second we hung up. The show is called Dive Club and boy did we dive deep. We covered a ton of ground and fired off more than a few hot takes. Chara had some great metaphors and I moved around a lot. youtu.be/Jhxx6yK2J08?...

As code becomes cheaper and easier to write, an explosion of niche products is imminent. Old-world economics have capped artistic expression in software if you’re going to invest the time to build something then it better make money and have the potential to scale. But that's about to change...

There are very few companies that can do it like Perplexity there are even fewer people who can design like Phi. Absolutely wonderful episode of dive club with Phi. Worth the listen because he's a marvel. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rsaw...

It's time to rethink design systems... Somehow they've become synonymous with scale 🤔 That's why I'm fascinated by seeing how startups like Perplexity and Cron approached them in the very early days 👇 join.dive.club/ep3
