Someone took this challenge very seriously. Programmers were asked to design the worst user experience imaginable, and apparently some of them approached it with the dedication of a Nobel Prize project. The goal was to make software confusing, frustrating, and almost impossible to use. Mission accomplished. And that is...

Partnered with SwiftXR and a talented software developer to create a virtual world of my exhibition for people who cannot make it. The challenge I gave was, how can we create an interactive experience that is not just looking at art? So flash games were developed, and more indepth interactions with each painting. It launches the day after the opening. To my age mates, I hope you experience the nostalgia of when we played flash games and used colorful interactive online education.

"The one thing that's going to be truly future proof is judgment. What is the biggest challenge when you have a thousand AI engineers writing code? AI slop. In an era when you can do everything, the question is which of these things matter. On the engineer side, it is evaluating the code. Which of this code is even valuable? You can have AI engineers writing beautiful code that could be wrong, that could have bugs in it, that could be vulnerable. Someone needs to review it. Make sure to have a human review at some point, especially critical code that is in the core of your system. On the product side is judgment around what needs to be built and evaluating. And similarly in design, you have to have judgment around, does it make sense in the broader design system. I think this judgment is the number one thing that humans are going to bring in an era of infinite productivity."

How Jan Koum (WhatsApp cofounder and CEO) operated: "Jan said no a lot. Almost 99% of the time, he would say 'no.' As a young engineer, I was very confused. Because when you look at all these other apps, like WeChat, is notorious for having everything, right? They have so many features. And I was so confused: why don't we build all these features? These are the newest, coolest things that we should have. All the cool features were missing, in my mind. And that was by design. Because what we really wanted to prioritize was the quality of [the experience of] a grandma in a remote town being able to use our app at any given time."

The lack of "feature design" is why so many products over time feel hollow or messy. This isn't visual design. This isn't architectural design. I thought that a short video lecture of what feature design is and a real case study of applying it in Ghostty would be helpful. Feature design is the planning step behind how you're going to solve one or more user problems with a product feature: what that feature looks like, how it feels, and not just how its going to tactically solve these specific problems, but how that solution is going to interface with the edges of other features that currently exist or are planned to exist in the future.

Emil Michael Reveals the “Holy Sh*t Moment” That Caused the Pentagon-Anthropic Fallout Under Secretary of War Emil Michael: “The trigger point was after the Maduro raid.” “One of their execs called Palantir, who we buy their stuff through, and asked them, ‘Was our software used in that raid?’ Which is, by the way, classified information anyway.” “So they’re trying to get classified information, and implying that if they were used in that raid, that might violate their terms of service.” “It raised enough alarm with Palantir, who's got a trusted relationship with the department, to tell me.” “And I'm like, ‘Holy sh*t.’ What if this software went down, some guardrail kicked up, some refusal happened for the next fight like this one, and we left our people at risk?” “So I went to Secretary Hegseth, I said this would happen. And that was a ‘woah’ moment for the whole leadership at the Pentagon, that we're potentially so dependent on a software provider, without another alternative, that has the ability to not only shut it off, maybe it’s a rogue developer who could poison the model to make it not do what you want.” “So then that culminated in the Tuesday kind of dramatic meeting with Secretary Hegseth, and me, and Dario, with the Friday deadline that got blown.” “And I never thought they really wanted to make it.”

Arteta: “Throughout this journey, we have made some massive steps, and we have accomplished a lot of things that, in my opinion, have a lot of value, but at the end of the day, we are here to win major trophies. “That was the ultimate goal, and we were very close. And in three occasions, we fell short at the end, and that was very painful. But I think that's what has driven all of us to find new ways to show what we are made of. That's what I said, the manner that we've done it, it makes it even better.”

🇪🇺 Two years A380 delay due to incompatibile software. "Everything had to be ripped out and replaced from scratch” German and Spanish engineers used software that wasn't compatible with what the French and British engineers used. After installing thousands of veins of copper and aluminum wire around the walls and floor panels of the airframes, Airbus discovered the wiring was too short. This is just one example of problems caused by a lack of uniform design software at Airbus that contributed to its initial A380 production delays.

ELON: SEEK THE TRUTH, NOT WHAT YOU WISH TO BE TRUE "Mistakes people generally make, and I'm guilty of it too, is wishful thinking. You know, like you want something to be true even if it isn't true, and so you ignore the things that, you ignore the real truth because of what you want to be true. This is a very difficult trap to avoid, and like I said, it's certainly one that I find myself in having problems with. But if you just take that approach of you are always to some degree wrong and your goal is to be less wrong, and solicit critical feedback, particularly from friends. If somebody loves you, they want the best for you, they don't want to tell you the bad things." Source: Unlock Futurix YT

ELON: OUR IN-HOUSE SELF-DRIVING SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE ARE UNBEATABLE “Our strategy, which we started a little over three years ago, is to design and build a computer that is fully optimized and aiming for full self-driving, then write software that is designed to work specifically on that computer and get the most out of that computer. You have tailored hardware that is a master of one trade, self-driving. Nvidia is a great company, but they have many customers, and so they apply their resources to do a generalized solution. We care about one thing: Self-driving. So it was designed to do that incredibly well. The software is also designed to run on that hardware incredibly well. The combination of the software and the hardware, I think, is unbeatable.” Source: Tesla Autonomy Day, April 22, 2019

Rockville, Maryland - the man seen in this video verbally accosting elderly Jews has contacted StopAntisemitism to issue an apology - "My aggressive approach to the older Jewish people yesterday was unacceptable, there was no reason to treat someone like that. I didn’t know they were asking for the hostages to be returned home, but I never asked. My action took away from what I wanted to promote, which is unity, respect, and understanding. I was angry about the war and just had spoke to some friends who lost there whole families in this war. It is a painful time we are living in. I took out my hurt and rage on them and that was not right at all, I called them outside of their names and that was wrong. I blamed them and that was wrong, I was wrong. I apologize, if you all could send this to whoever sent you the video of me yelling like that, I would appreciate it, because they deserve an apology."

RM talked about Jungkook's contribution to "Hooligan" ​🐨: So, Jungkook and Hobi spent a lot of time working closely together. It probably came out of Jungkook and Hobi's room. And as you know, I don't know why Jungkook suddenly brought up the keyword 'Hooligan,' but anyway, Jungkook wrote this part with (watch this watch this beat going hooligan), and from there, he talked through it with the local songwriters to flesh it out. Then I also made some minor revisions, and after many people revised it, it came out like this. 🐨​: For this, a person named El Guincho, who works a lot with Rosalía, collaborated with me for over ten days, and there were so many really interesting tracks. There were many tracks like one that started with the sound of knives slashing, a motorcycle sound, or a Game Boy sound, but this song probably came out of Hobi or Jungkook’s room about a month into it. 🐨​: To that extent, Hobi and Jungkook really did a huge job. From the moment we heard the rough sounds with the people who were there, the track itself was just so good. And because the keyword 'Hooligan' stood out so strongly, it felt really great. 🐨​: Originally, there was this choreography that was really intense, the kind they used to dance, and Taehyang also danced it. There was this kind of choreography. But after listening to opinions from the company's ideas and various people, we changed it to this one to try and make it a challenge and gain mainstream popularity (viral success). 🐨: But as expected, a challenge isn't something that just succeeds because you force it. In the end, that other choreography created by one of our fans, you know, the one with the hip-thrusting/pelvis popping? That one became the viral challenge, and everyone ended up doing that challenge. It showed us that what we try to make happen doesn't easily catch on, and it didn't become a challenge at all. So I realized, 'Ah, this really isn't something that happens just because you try to push it.' 🐨But anyway, it was great because so many people did 'Hooligan'. ​Yeah, I don't know the full behind-the-scenes story of 'Hooligan'. For this, later on when Jungkook or Hobi do a live stream, what should I say? Please be sure to ask about it

This is exactly what not to do if you get cauliflower ear from wrestling or Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. It’s always best to go to the Dr and they usually use a needle to release some of the pressure. This looks very painful!! It is a right of passage for some of these fighters and a lot of them “want” to get it.

"This [is] the brilliance of this bioweapon [the COVID jabs]... It goes to every part of your body—it will hit you at whatever your point of susceptibility is... [there are] 1,287 side effects... This [is] the most evil assault upon humanity that anybody could imagine." Dr. Charles Hoffe, a practicing family physician in BC, Canada, describes for Maryann Gebauer how the COVID injections are a "brilliant...bioweapon" because they cause such a staggering array of health problems. Hoffe, an outspoken critic of the injections who took on the College of Physicians and Surgeons of British Columbia (the medical board recently dropped their bogus case against Hoffe, which was based on his questioning the COVID injections in social media posts), notes that the poisonous shots "will hit you at whatever your point of susceptibility is" and highlights their use of "lipid nano capsules" that ensure their payload "[goes] to every single part of [a recipient's] body." "Every patient is different... There's no two that are the same. And and this [is] the brilliance of this bioweapon," Hoffe says. "The fact that they chose the lipid nano capsules as a delivery system ensured that this would get into every single part of your body. And so because it goes to every part of your body, it will hit you at whatever your point of susceptibility is. Whatever your point of weakness is, that's where you'll notice it the most." Hoffe adds: "For some people that were more prone to cardiac things, they're gonna get cardiac symptoms. For... people [who] are more prone to autoimmune things, that's what it'll be for them. For some people that were more easily prone to getting cancer, that's what they'll get. And so it was brilliant. If you're trying to track side effects from a new treatment, but the side effects are everything you can think of, how do you track it?" "There's no medical product that has 1287 side effects," Hoffe notes. I mean, it [the adverse events of special interest list] literally read[s] like a medical dictionary... almost everything you could think of is what Pfizer had recorded in the first 90 days as side effects." "This was the most evil assault upon humanity that anybody could imagine," Hoffe adds. "Because all of these people... were told that this was gonna keep them safe. And meanwhile, it was designed to cause harm." The physician goes on to say: "The most harmful part of the virus was the spike protein. That was the warhead on it. The fact that the vaccine turned your body into a spike protein factory...it got your body to make the most dangerous part of the virus. The fact that that was there in this [injection and it] was a patented bioweapon. For anyone to say...they were doing their best and it just went wrong: Bioweapons aren't designed to keep people safe. They are designed to cause harm."

When I was a kid, 12% of us had chronic disease. Now it's over 50%. Our children are the sickest we have ever seen them. Something has gone tragically, tragically wrong. "An Inconvenient Study" does not prove vaccines are causing this epidemic. I say that clearly at the end of the film. What it shows us is a major signal, and it is one of ten studies like it. When you start looking at that body of work, it leans you very hard toward the fact that we may have a serious problem here. This vaccine program was supposed to make our children healthier. If that signal is real, it is doing the exact opposite of what it was designed to do. That alone should be enough for every regulatory agency in the world to do this study. That has to be on the table. Mary Talley Bowden MD

New Tools for a New Era. Coding agents like Claude and Cursor have dramatically reduced the time it takes to go from idea to functional software. But the experience of designing and refining with them sucks. One reason for this is that while the terminal is an incredible tool for communicating direction with language, it is a terrible tool for defining and exploring visual and interactive objects. Here is one idea for how we might fix a small part of that. In the old world, when you wanted to create a transition or animation in your app, you would type some code, refresh your local server, and click to run your animation. It probably wasn't right, because after all no one can know what 'cubic-bezier(0.3, 0.05, 0.45, 1)' really feels like when you read it. You need to see it. Feel it. Interact with it in a real world context. So you'd edit some values, save, refresh, and keep guessing and checking until it felt right. Today, you can write a quick, single-use tool that's a visual studio for designing animations. You can then configure some components and containers common in all apps, and explore different animations in real time, adjusting key properties, and getting it just right. Then, you can copy a highly detailed prompt (or export a skill containing all your animations) that captures your intent and direction with perfect clarity. Paste this into your terminal and your agent instantly implements it everywhere. To me, this is an improvement over the old world, and a better way to work in today's. I'm extremely excited to see the ways in which our ability to rapidly create software will shape how we design software tomorrow. Feedback, ideas, and critiques welcome!

It probably wasn't right, because after all no one can know what 'cubic-bezier(0.3, 0.05, 0.45, 1)' really feels like when you read it. You need to see it. Feel it. Interact with it in a real world context. So you'd edit some values, save, refresh, and keep guessing and checking until it felt right. Today, you can write a quick, single-use tool that's a visual studio for designing animations. You can then configure some components and containers common in all apps, and explore different animations in real time, adjusting key properties, and getting it just right. Then, you can copy a highly detailed prompt (or export a skill containing all your animations) that captures your intent and direction with perfect clarity. Paste this into your terminal and your agent instantly implements it everywhere. To me, this is an improvement over the old world, and a better way to work in today's. I'm extremely excited to see the ways in which our ability to rapidly create software will shape how we design software tomorrow. Feedback, ideas, and critiques welcome!
