too soon.
Figma is still good as a source of truth.
get your agents to create the final approved prototype in Figma if only for the canvas and collaboration for now.
Revolut's designers are moving off Figma.
Storonsky spotted one team designing much faster than the others. What they did:
1. Gave an LLM Revolut's design system at the code level
2. Prompted it to build new flows on top of that system
3. Got a live interface they can click through on a laptop or phone, instead of static frames
Result: 3-4x faster. Now he's pushing it to every designer at Revolut.
His job, as he describes it: find what works in one team and spread it across the company.
Full breakdown here:

first sign of tech market recovering:
they’re hiring interns again.
who are the smartest / most talented college students you know?
i'd like to fast-track them into an @a16z-backed startup for their next internship or full-time role
tech market must really be in the dumps if DHH has to resort to ragebait for engagement
"Yes, men dominate computing. There are many reasons for that; none of them justifies collective guilt. Turning the percentages into a struggle session is nonsense." world.hey.com/dhh/be-a-tech-…
getting (begging) the first few users to sign up on to your product does the most damage to your street cred
I said what I said
Good product design is:
1. Logic - which is not universally applicable
3. Consumer psychology - that doesn't apply to all users
4. Subtraction - Simplifying to the bare essentials
5. Taste - which is a culmination of good curation over a lifetime
ask yourself, can all of the above be codified? can AI do that?
trust me, your job as a designer is safe.

I’ve been working on something for the past few months, and I’m finally ready to share it with you.
The Poster Manual is officially here.
As a self-taught designer, I’ve spent years learning through experimentation, making mistakes, and creating hundreds of posters along the way.
I wanted to take everything I’ve learned and turn it into something useful for other designers. Something I wish I had when I was starting out.
If you’re a beginner who’s curious about poster design but doesn’t know where to start, I made this course for you.
My goal is to help you think differently, experiment more, and become more confident in your work.
I’m really excited to finally put this out into the world, and I hope it becomes a meaningful part of your creative journey.

two designers, in isolated rooms with the same brief, will come up with entirely different designs btw
in case you were wondering if design is dead.
You don’t want to be caught out in a medical emergency and your govt apps dying on you, rendering you unable to access your ID and verification.
TIL
Iterating in React Native is delightfully faster than in swiftUI
