Steve Jobs emails himself a year before he died

Was vibe-coding using @lovable_dev this weekend during AI Showdown and, man, I am HOOKED!!! Just saw Lovable shipped! Am I too late? Can i still join? 🙏

Steve Wozniak is the engineer who quietly built Apple. Here are 26 ideas I took away from this episode and my research you can use. 1. Constraints force deep understanding. 2. Focus on the step, not the outcome. 3. Committees kill revolutions. 4. Learning is the

Came across this summary that pulls together some of the recent findings on the links between commonplace (including ostensibly "harmless") pathogens and long-term harm to human health. The war on infectious diseases is far from over!

People often ask how we balance speed and quality at Ramp. We don’t. Because speed is how you get to quality. Even the best hitters in baseball miss 70% of the time. A .300 batting average means the world’s best still fail twice as often as they succeed. Building products

“Design, in this sense, is not about artifacts or tools. It is about forming and shaping clarity of the intent... It is about deciding what matters, what constraints apply, and what tradeoffs are acceptable. Good product work is seeking clarity.”

Our industry keeps confusing the appearance of design with design that actually works well

non-designers who have never designed anything: "designers are cooked!" people who have worked in code, want to work in code, always will work in code: "future of design is code!" companies selling tokens: "move that button 4px with a prompt!" designers:
