Over the past two months, my most impactful move as a design manager has been encouraging and supporting every designer to start building with Claude Code. Designers used to create a “source of truth” in Figma which was used for QA and accountability.. if anything was wrong,

Wake up, designers. While jobs across other functions are surging through the AI transition, design roles are stagnant. Don’t take refuge in craft and taste. All members of technical staff must demonstrate newfound productivity. If that’s a topic you’ve avoided because it

maybe a little silly but this feels like a significant life event, it feels weird to go from being terrified of github and the idea of pushing code to prod, to suddenly submitting 1000+ line PRs basically overnight

One interesting observation in this chart is the claim that demand has flipped from designers to PMs. It frames this as if orgs suddenly want fewer designers and more PMs, but that feels rooted in legacy titles, not how the work is actually getting done. On most product teams

this makes middle truncation pretty trivial and performant

Anyone bearish on Claude Code for design has merely been reacting to the first wave of slop that comes with any new tech. Think back to the many accelerometer beer drinking apps when the iPhone first launched. We just need to give talented designers and engineers time to let the

Huh, so that's why text is called a string

Most tech companies break out product management and product marketing into two separate roles: Product management defines the product and gets it built. Product marketing wires the messaging- the facts you want to communicate to customers- and gets the product sold. But from my

The X video player has honestly become better than the Instagram video player (the app for videos). How did this happen?
