Kinda shocked that you can't set a custom notification sound for a specific app on iOS. Such a basic feature that's existed om Android for ages. On iOS you can but only for Apple's own pre-installed apps.

My last post ended up creating a conversation so it made me realize how broken threading is on here. I can't even find my own comments on my own post. Thought thread UX has been figured out.

Finally got to reading this. Has anyone else? Thoughts?

Been following Pieter Levels for years so was very excited to see him as a guest. He's such an amazing guy for so many reasons. Extremely honest & transparent about everything. No bull.

Just came across this. I rest my case. People who refuse to believe that AI is eating the software engineer market just don't want to admit obvious reality.

Just watched a little of this. Wish he'd stick to working at McDonald's. Doing a great job!

Someone also made an e-ink computer!
Wouldn't be able to use it for design but could do a lot of other things on it outdoors.

Finally, those pictures of people working on laptops on a beach in Bali might actually be true.

Have always loved music (especially electronic). Recently started to experiment with producing my own tracks. A bit hit and miss so far but I think this one came out well.

If you want to make your iPhone kinda look like an e-ink display it's very simple.

I find it interesting that even though there are a lot of designers working in enterprise (B2B) products pretty much 100% of design conversation revolves around consumer products and marketing design. Why is that? Because it seems boring & visually unappealing to most designers?
