The convergence of AI, code, and visual development is accelerating. weweb.io just switched their homepage to a Lovable/Bolt style "start with a prompt". Seems like a great product-led growth strategy. Let folks realize the second step—making edits—is better with a visual

I'm looking to handoff a weweb.io / Xano project to a freelancer or agency for ongoing maintenance (client's budget -- approximately ~$2k/mo) More info here— community.weweb.io/t/looking-for-…

A data engineer contractor told me they couldn't implement a solution because they'd never used the specific technology before. I'd never used it either. And I've only written Python once—with AI, months ago. But 2.5 hours later with AI assistance, I deployed the solution and

Interesting pattern I've noticed: I prefer GPT-4.1 for turning ideas into polished messages. GPT-5 and others are absolutely better thought partners. They pick up more nuance and logic. But when it’s time to distill an idea into something clear and human-ready, I feel 4.1 is

With the generative AI boom, I get that—in theory—the bottleneck for creation shifts away from tools and capital and toward human creativity itself. Recently, I've felt that shift more viscerally every time I face a blank canvas—whether it’s for code or an image generation tool

.Thomas Massie (R-KY): "I don't know if that's precedented in this country to have a president call legislators to say that they're engaged in a hostile act, particularly when the so-called hostile act is trying to get justice for people who've been victims of sex crimes."

I've been playing with creative gen AI tools for images, music, and video. For music, I really like ElevenLabs. But for image/video, I still haven't found a tool that really sticks. Love the power of LTX Studio, but I don't always need such granular control, nor am I really
