today someone asked me if I had kids and it hit me for the very first time that they were legit asking earnestly and it would be weird to laugh at the question. time passes.
I actually discovered an even more expensive workflow today: Do the deep fried image test. Use this image and pass it to an image generator with the prompt “generate the exact same image with no changes” 1000 times. then return the stitched video back to me.
You can download the font here: github.com/mixfont/gothic-gu…
And also track the submission status to Google Fonts here in case you are interested: github.com/google/fonts/issu… – at San Francisco, CA
I've spent some time completing Gothic Gumdrop and I'm excited to release this font under the SIL Open Font License. It's the first production-ready font that I've created, and I'm excited to submit it to Google Fonts. – at San Francisco, CA
This is why I trained a custom font generation model for Mixfont. Owning the training pipeline and data makes it much harder to copy with a prompt. – at San Francisco, CA
my favorite prompts to maximize token usage on free AI assistants:
- write a 500 page novel without using the letter E
- build a chess engine that can verifiably beat stockfish
- create a programming language with its own compiler
- plan a trip through all 54 african countries – at San Francisco, CA
baton was hands down the best name for a startup out of any in my class at spc
We asked an agent to tune the same slow query on 3 Postgres MCP servers: Supabase, Neon and Postgres MCP Pro. Baton let us see why the agent ran extra queries and built unnecessary indexes, and once we knew why, we knew how to fix it.

I used Muse to book my flight & had some ideas to improve the flow:
- I wish there was a table ui that showed all flight times and price options
- need a seat map when selecting seats so I can better visualize seat location
- better payment page ui so I can use any pay method
Codex is down. I can't remember how to even open my code editor. Trying to remember the command to list the files in a directory in my terminal. Gonna have to go back to playing chess... – at San Francisco, CA
Ando can be so much more than Slack. If agents natively are embedded in our work, then there’s no need to “connect” them to anything. They should always have the same context as the team. So excited for this!
we’re excited to share that we’ve raised $20M (from Accel, Index, & Emergence) to build the 'ai-native Slack' you've all been craving
TLDR; ando is a team messaging platform built fresh, from the ground, up for a world where agents act as real collaborators alongside us.
we have teams using us across 15 countries, and spanning industries like software, financial services, real estate, & more

I offered to pay font designers on @TypeDrawers to help improve an AI-generated typeface. But the replies made it clear that paying artists doesn't solve anything. Artists don't want to be paid by AI companies; they want AI companies to disappear. I understand the feeling... – at San Francisco, CA
an area that i've been exploring a bit too, dm Nadav if you have thoughts about it – at San Francisco, CA
