The more I build, the clearer it gets: foundations dominate. In LLMs or code, you can refactor endlessly; but only if the initial setup was clean, minimal, and robust.

Fighting with this for a year already, so yeah this is the new challenge for the ai era
If context engineering is the new hotness for engineering, context management is the new UI hotness/challenge for designers.
I still don't understand why people don't just use the Discord PWA? You get none of this shit + never again "Downloading update 3 out of 11..."
every cool app you see live today is just the tip of the iceberg. 10x more are being built quietly by smart people with even crazier ideas. i've seen so many wild demos lately, genuinely grateful and hyped for what’s coming in this ai era.
holy fuck why did i just discover that claude code is 10x better than cursor i am sorry anthropic i was unfamiliar with your game
Two kinds of people in tech: 1. Those who started building because it was fun 2. Those who chose tech because it paid well Guess which builds better products?
UI that is fun to play with... that's a great goal
just accidentally built an app that's a better teacher than any human i've ever had combined old exam questions + course material + llm that walks through my messy thoughts with me

romanian house for builders. a new european community. just a spot for freedom and creation. ideas of the new, with passions of the old. for us... lovely.
Deta Surf is web browser and a notebook designed for people to create (with a little help from AI). Now available for anyone to try!
this will be the next milestone after shadcn, incredible work by @dylanlp_
✨ Introducing Layout, the design system tool for the AI era. I’ve spent 5 months making the perfect tool for designers, developers and founders to work with components. - Import from @Figma - Install via @shadcn - Link to your code with GitHub RT or reply for early access!
this is pure gold it can take a single .md file and convert it into a course:
we built DeepWiki, a free encyclopedia of all GitHub repos some numbers: - 30k repos already indexed - processed 4 billion+ lines of code - the indexing alone cost $300k+ in compute spend
