Apple chosing not to fund bottomless pits of AI capex but instead bottomless pits of sci-fi movies will be remembered as a hero of this era 🫡
Thank you Apple !

Dear #developers
What has been the worst onboarding process for you ?👀
I’m currently gathering insights from developers on what GOOD onboarding actually feels like.
Would really appreciate if you could take 2 mins to fill this survey (bit.ly/DXEOkaome)
Great more ways to eat up my credits , even though I have a subscription to a good model

Expanding on this a bit, a product design tool would:
- Allow you to create and visualize your concepts as primitives
- Allow you to see relations between your product concepts
- Allow you to list and prioritize your constraints
- Allow you to maintain competing versions of concepts or relations
- Assist you in understanding impacts or consequences of modifying parts of that system
I've yet to see any tool actually try to do this, but whiteboards/canvas are the closest, as they enable me to map this out freeform.

I’m thrilled to announce we’ve raised $44M to build a new home for product design. Meet @noondesign.
No workflow is more broken and fragmented in 2026 than the product designers’. The very same people who care most about building software don’t have software purpose built for them. @kushagrasinha7 and I have lived this problem first hand as designers ourselves.
That’s why we built Noon. The first product design tool that works entirely on your product code, so you can design not only how a product looks, but also how it works. With AI at its core that works in seconds, not minutes.
For the first time, you can create, iterate, build, test and ship. All in one canvas. No translations or roundtrips to the codebase and back.
Comment “Get Noon” and we’ll get you on the list for early access.

I like to think of it as a binding vow. Where your creativity is suppressed until the deadline is close then it unlocks at 200% capacity. Like Nanami's overtime.

well in fairness the majority are not actually doing “product design” or what Signull is suggesting.
Many are user interface designers masquerading as something more.

*The* design process is dead.
Long live the *design* process.
Design lead for Claude: The classic design process is dead.
Here's what's replacing it.
Jenny Wen (@jennywen) leads design for Claude at @AnthropicAI, was previously director of design at @Figma, and a designer at @Dropbox, @Square, and @Shopify.
In our in-depth conversation, we discuss:
🔸 Why the classic discovery → mock → iterate design process is becoming obsolete
🔸 What a day in the life of a designer at Anthropic looks like, including her AI tool stack
🔸 Whether AI will eventually surpass humans in taste and judgment
🔸 Why Jenny left a director role at Figma to return to IC work
🔸 The three archetypes Jenny is hiring for now
This conversation changed how I think about the future of design.
