Built a CLI simulator to use in my presentations. Try it out! cli-simulator.vercel.app/
Really interesting design chat between Soleio @soleio and Ian @iansilber at @spc about design and OpenAI. Lots of great insights!
NN/g recently published a study on the limitations of synthetic users. I think relying only on synthetic users for usability testing is risky. AI agents often behave too logically and don’t make the same mistakes real people do. What do you think?

Ian Silber led product design @OpenAI during the launches of ChatGPT and Codex. We’ll get his take on the future of software design and entrepreneurship.
Invitations go out tonight. Request yours now.
The last time I used 3ds Max was 20 years ago, and I had never touched Blender. I needed an iPhone 18 Pro mockup in *.glb format, so I built one in just a few hours using Codex Astra + Blender (headless). It was a really interesting experience! Of course, this is just the first version.

10x more downloads, the impact of optimizing my Chrome extension’s title and translating the title and description into 14 languages. I love learning things like this while building products.
I use ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, and several AI design tools like Figma AI, v0, Claude Design and ... for early ideation, but I feel like my ideas, context, and knowledge are scattered across too many places. Has anyone found a good solution to this?

You can now also ask your agent to buy aiforui.dev for you.
Once it's purchased, it installs the skills that come with the course and starts using them on your app right away.
This way you get value instantly and can go through ithe lessons yourself later.
introducing agentic checkouts ✨
agents can now pay on any Polar checkout, with your approval, through @agentcardhq.
Does it really take almost two weeks to review an app on the App Store Connect now? I’ve submitted two expedited review requests and still haven’t heard back. What’s going on at Apple?! This is incredibly frustrating for indie developers. @AppleSupport #AppStore #AppStoreConnect
App Store reviews are taking way too long. My app was rejected over a missing EULA link in the description, and a week later it’s still waiting for review. Apple should use AI to automate simple checks like this. These delays are frustrating and kill the motivation to keep building. @AppStore @Apple

Found a cool AI assistant called Instinct. It helps me with daily small tasks, so I have more time for my job. I have some invites app.instinct.com/invite?t=iy…

Claude Duet is the next player! Who will win the AI agents race?
Finally wrote my first article on Medium! 😅 A bit about how my journey in design has changed, what I've built, and what I've learned along the way. Would love to hear your thoughts!
