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.

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.

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?
