I’ve been curious on how to close this loop between engineering and design/product. We don’t use react, which Claude design seems to trend towards. We use Phoenix / liveview. We have a shared design system, which keeps the visual

Interesting. I often ask it export a single html file, for an external collaborator or simpler sharing. But I wouldn’t deploy that to production. I wonder if they asked it to deploy a html file. But this is exactly the kind of hidden domain

I’d love to see this experiment executed with Claude design. Particularly with something static, I don’t think they’d fail to get a result. But without domain knowledge I think they’d misunderstand prototype with finished product. Without k

Awesome. Everything you're stating sounds alot like Tixel in Australia. Tho I'm not sure they manage the venue / original ticket sale. More of a scalp free marketplace. Only place I will buy or sell tickets.

I’m still running an SE2020. I was expecting the latest update (with liquid) to be the death of it. But performance has actually improved significantly! Very unexpected. It’s been a great phone!

I’ve been buying vinyl for the sake of collecting it, with limited intention to ever play it. And I’ve been wondering why would anyone buy the cassette or CD? (And I own more cassette players than the zero vinyl players) I recently found ou

I couldn’t agree more. I find gmail to be the absolute worst offender in this category. 1. They dark pattern you into downloading their browser (they give three options, two of which are chrome) 2. In not launching iOS, I’m not logged into

+1 for a yoto. It also led to my biggest ‘Doh’ moment with tech. My sister showed it to me at a holiday house where we had no internet. I thought it was awesome, an offline music/audio player that her daughter could use. She mentioned

Do you live in Auckland? It sounds similar to the system I encountered there. I don’t remember all the details, I was only renting for a year. It didn’t sound like it was NZ wide.

It’s an interesting idea. I’ve definitely felt the pain of file formats in some unexpected ways recently. Like airdropping a photo from iPhone only to discover a .HEIC file, which nothing will accept. I’ve previously used “what ever turns u

I know nothing about thermal printing. Does it cost more to print more black? Or is the cost of printing baked into the paper? In standard printing white is free. Is the opposite (or cost neutral) true for thermal printing?

I’m sure the advertising industry has a specific term and definition for this type of ad. On that basis, I think it falls squarely in the advertising category. I’m sure someone that works in that industry can drop their knowledge on it.

I deleted Rewinds over the weekend, after I noticed it had eaten 20gb of storage. I hadn’t used it since installing it. So that came as a surprise. I then tried using it, and couldn’t get it to find things I knew were in my history. (Basic
