contrast with one of my favorite Apple ads for the Apple Watch
so much more optimistic, aspirational, and human-centric

big big big fan of this
One of San Francisco's largest redevelopment projects could completely transform nearly 19 acres of land near Downtown.
Plans are moving forward for the redevelopment of the Caltrain Railyards at 4th and King in SoMa.
The project could include:
• Up to 5,834 apartments
• Up to 5.6 million SF of commercial space
• 160,000+ SF of retail
• A completely rebuilt Caltrain station
• More than 4 acres of public open space
• Multiple skyscrapers reaching 350 to 600 feet
• A potential 850-foot tower
This land is currently occupied by railroad tracks, platforms, maintenance facilities and the existing Caltrain station.
The proposal would modernize the transit infrastructure, relocate train storage and maintenance, and create an entirely new mixed-use neighborhood above and around the station.
Thousands of people could be living, working, shopping and spending time in what is currently a massive rail yard.
And all directly connected to one of the Bay Area's most important transit corridors.
The project is now entering environmental review, with construction potentially starting in 2029 and taking 15 to 20 years to complete....
There's obviously a long road ahead, but I love seeing developers think this big about underutilized urban land.
This could completely reshape SF.

The Renaissance was an immune response to the first information overload crisis, triggered by the printing press. We are about to experience the same thing, only as a response to the slop overload crisis—and it will be incredible

🚨 إذا تستخدم AI لبناء المواقع، جرّب Onlook.
أداة مفتوحة المصدر تجمع بين Figma + محرر كود + AI في مكان واحد. 🤯
تقدر:
🧠 تبدأ موقع من Prompt أو صورة
🎨 تعدّل الواجهة بصريًا بالسحب والتعديل
💻 وتشوف الكود يتغيّر مباشرة
⚡ Preview لحظي
📦 تستورد مشروعك من GitHub
🛠️ وتخلي الـAI يعدّل المشروع معك
الفكرة الجميلة؟
بدل ما تعدّل التصميم ثم ترجع للكود… تعدّل الاثنين مع بعض.
من المشاريع المفتوحة المصدر اللي تستحق التجربة فعلًا. 👀

I remember at bird when we would spin up a new business line and it would take days or weeks to get an updated dashboard to see the analytics the way we needed to
and now I'm just vibe-dashboarding with @posthog in seconds
Onlook for making your apps look 🔥
AI app building is getting f...cking illegal

internal tools: OpenUI → Appwrite → n8n → Dokploy
content platform: Onlook → Payload → Trigger.dev → Coolify
the crazy part is how much of the application stack is now open source
you don't need 10 separate SaaS subscriptions just to prototype an idea
one AI model, 10 GitHub repos, an entire application stack ⭣
I actually asked my @bot to make me "personalized ad images" to encourage me to do things that will help me achieve my goals.
an "ad" may be the best, most digestible format to help us do things.
flashbacks to the 4th of july fireworks show
The Blue Angels halted their Fleet Week performance midway through Friday’s air show as low clouds and poor visibility over San Francisco Bay complicated flying conditions.

maybe the craziest company in my batch
We built an 8000 sqft. high-throughput wet-lab in 30 days, to solve molecular discovery - starting with pesticides.
Most teams in drug-discovery don’t receive target-organism verification until clinical trials. Pesticides allow us to rapidly validate our model in the target organism directly. With the help of our high-throughput lab, we were able to generate compounds that killed a $13 billion pest, the Fall Armyworm.
We believe that the bitter lesson is coming for biology.
been a while since I've done a podcast and this one was a blast!
chatted about comics, creativity, brand, and the ideas behind the new @onlookdev
thanks for having me @doctorbaytas and @designdisciplin
why do teams name their competitors
you're doing marketing for your competitor
You are overpaying for @clay.
