Why are there so many posts asking for you to choose an option, but don’t use the ‘create a poll’ function?

Used Fable to start building a mobile clicker game before it became credit based. Full game functions, but it’s boring. Now I’m using Opus to make edits and creating artwork myself using Adobe Illustrator.

The process is slower, but it’s still entertaining.

Keep seeing the posts saying “you notice there’s nothing to watch on YouTube anymore?” What?! There are 20 million videos uploaded each week—you just spend 45 minutes scrolling past all of them looking for one that feels like 2017.

That it was @marclou for a second. Was like, “whoa! That’s a helluva sponsorship.”

When I see posts about AI marketing, it feels like watching someone cook with a recipe for the first time. You’re figuring it out? Cool, me too. Just share your list of ingredients with me.

Genuinely curious, is anyone using all of Google Workspace (not just Gmail and Docs)? If so what other parts and how?

When I don’t know what to improve on a project, I show it to someone and watch them point out things that aren’t even features of the tool.

Making the thing is 50% of the work. The other 50% is putting it in front of actual humans. In most places 50% equals failure.

Why are people still suggesting we use AI to write emails, and then spend 20 minutes editing what the AI spit out? At that point you've just made yourself a middle man in your own process.

The fact that I’m getting no likes on my posts tells me there’s not enough bots on this app.

This is the kind of creative process I love to see as a professor. Show your work. Show your process.

Been seeing the “How long until Claude Code after sex?” post a lot. Give your laptop a smoke break so you can enjoy a life benchmark before getting back to your other benchmarks.

What’s your pickup line when DM’ing someone to try your app?

What are you supposed to do when your banger posts don’t bang? I tend to refresh my analytics every 2 minutes to make sure my WiFi isn’t down.

Claude Design means the line between 'I made a design' and 'I prompted a tool' is now completely blurred. Now it’s all about taste, right?

How to design clean apps A few things that do most of the work: — Stick to one accent color and its soft tints — Give everything room to breathe — whitespace is a feature — Keep one consistent corner radius across cards and icons — Limit your type scale to two or three sizes, not five — Use a clean geometric font like Open Runde — Free icon set: Solar Duotone Save it for your next project
