Susan Kare, you’re my hero. ♥️

Google Meets, if the internet congestion is bad, should do local transcription and send the words in "closed caption" mode.

People don't understand that software is complicated. To get something to feel simple, you need to explore. Just because you can one-shot an app, doesn't mean it's useful (or fun to use). The best apps take days, hours, weeks of refinement from real users. You can't just bake with an oven alone.

Best icon designer of our times! Thalia did all the SF Symbols you love, and now is making beautiful icons at OpenAI!

I had no idea that an iPhone had a magnetometer sensor in it. Sick work!

I want to interview indie app developers about the STORY behind their app Particularly developers who pull from their own life experiences to create and build If that’s you, reach out to me. Would love to do an interview and promote your apps and your story

When you give access to agents to actually do/buy stuff you understand that you often don't want to interface with a company. You just want the thing with as little friction or involvement as possible. I hate phone calls with companies for this reason. Friction, involvement, even anxiety. To some degree, I see this like that. I used an agent to go through a bank acct for something. It found fraudulent charges without me prompting it to do so. It submitted a ticket. I did nothing. It booked me a car, paid and cancelled it when I no longer needed it. Again, I did nothing. It feels like using your credit card on the internet for the first time in 1997. Scary at first, then it becomes weird not to. Not because the risk of fraud went away, but because it was never as big as we imagined. More importantly, the convenience was worth the risk we felt. The interface will be there. In some cases humans will use it. In others, agents. In others still, humans and their agents will bypass them altogether. The goal is for you to do as little as possible. The design job is making you comfortable with that.

This is true You can get very rich on helping IRL businesses with the transition to AI and automating everything for them They'll have to to stay competitive because if one adapts AI, they all have to!

Everyone talks about custom apps, but I’m so much more excited about bespoke hardware! It’s just so cool seeing Claude unlock creativity in new ways.

That's what I call is a very unique design. Well executed (you might not like it or find it useful, and that's ok). Also, David @dwhilldesign is one of my favorite accounts lately. A friend suggested it to me, and if you're into industrial design, it's a must follow.

if you told me in 2020 that by 2026 my collaboration with other designers would mean pushing to GitHub regularly, having AI tag them, and pulling from other designers' repos to rework UI animations, all while talking to my computer rather than typing I would have fucking lost my shit.

Think bigger. Your imagination is holding you back. ultrafast is a huge unlock.

The future belongs to designers who build.

I feel so optimistic and excited about the role of design right now.

Connected my AI agent to a pen plotter to properly draw me a personalized newspaper Using @grok bot I also made a printable version so you can try 👇

AI is letting me build all the little things I always wished software could do 🥲

remembering Steve i grew up with beige boxes. then i moved to Canada and saw the iMac G4. how can computers be so beautiful? i couldn’t afford a Mac, so i made my PC look like one. changed the icons, the fonts, the windows. learned to make those shiny, lickable buttons. that’s how i got into interface design. i saw something i loved and wanted to make things like it. i burned DVDs of Steve’s keynotes and studied them. watched them again and again. there was so much care in the products, and so much joy in showing people what they could do. my first iPod was a black nano. i carried it everywhere. then the iPhone happened and changed the world. it felt like anything was possible. since he died, i’ve felt us getting stuck in a loop. constant refinement. better supply chains. more ways to keep people scrolling. so much talent spent on tiny improvements, so little room for something truly great and heartfelt. the keynotes get more cinematic every year. i still miss the live demos. someone onstage playing with something they helped make. the excitement, the jokes, the things that went wrong. it felt human. it was fun. we made computers faster. phones thinner. added more cameras. made machines smarter than us at more and more things. somehow, we’ve also become more disconnected and lonely. we spend so much energy trying to beat humans. i wish we spent more time learning from people’s lives and making them better. when i work, i still sometimes think: what would Steve do? i’ll never know. i’m sad i never got to work with him. but his work reached a kid with a beige PC and changed the course of his life. i wonder how many others have a story like mine. i’ve kept these words with me: “the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.” there’s still so much worth making. things we can put our hearts into. things that make someone feel what i felt when i first saw that iMac. thank you, Steve. 💛

New wealth is creating new opportunities for ✨ generosity ✨ From public stock to company equity, more people are realizing the assets in their portfolios can be put to work for charity. That’s exactly what Daffy was built to make easier. Thanks @SFBusinessTimes for talking w/ @adamnash about how that shift is happening.

hi Twitter! I am taking on Product hiring here at Notion, and were hiring for a PM :) Who are the best PMs you know? I would love to chat! Based in SF or NYC, reporting to @connors.
