I wrote 10,000 words on the Leica M EV1 I've been shooting with for months, as well as how I hit reset after burning out from overoptimizing my photography hobby. And I talk about the Aphera photo editor and what I built to my share photos more easily. paulstamatiou.com/the-leica-…

Despite being an M, the M EV1 is not a rangefinder like past M models. To best explain the difference between a regular M and the new M EV1 I built a little rangefinder demo to show why this move is a huge shift. Including a Leica-inspired font Opus and I created

love this @Cloudflare site with prompts to get your site agent ready. isitagentready.com/paulstama… seems like 80 is about the best you can do if your site doesn't have a protected resource you need to auth into (which imo they should make optional like commerce too) i added an mcp to mine (paulstamatiou.com/mcp) including a way to contact me that uses Clef via Workers AI to determine if it's a legit message since there's no Turnstile for MCP, along with some limits

having the most fun at @sesame. after our last release, @otkstdio and i spent 2 weeks prototyping a rethinking of our app to best support where we're heading. we started with some figma to layout and invalidate ideas then iterated a ton with iOS code (+ some backend updates to support new features we added) ended up evolving just about every part of the experience and shipped it internally along with an internal mini-site demoing the details. starting to productionize it soon, can't wait to share more then.

started playing with @superlogical rex recently (ghostty on steroids with lots of UI love, side tabs, nice little animations, etc). really slick. reminds me of Arc browser the first day I got in. the only thing it's missing (for me) is a claude code UI as I do love a gui for my agents (loving @orca_build for this) but i know that's kind of against the ethos of what they seem to be building

25 years with the iPod today. I had written about mine back for the 20th: paulstamatiou.com/revisiting…

wasn’t planning on getting the iPhone Duo but if I see one more photo of it being used like a computer i will cave

well, if you were on the fence about the iPhone Duo i think i just found the reason to get one there's an app called Tiny Computers that lets you use old computers like the iMac G3 and Commodore 64 in tabletop mode apps.apple.com/us/app/tiny-c…

extremely impressive roadster demo.. what a feat of engineering. the design leaves some to be desired (the new Porsche Mission S that came out today is more interesting imo) but i know they aggressively optimized aero

meta is just teasing us that they have prerelease M5 Ultra 512GB unified memory Mac Studios research.meta.ai/blog/muse-s…

best part of the new xbox labs site is the ascii reveal when opening the share modal labs.xbox.com/

continually amazed at the poor design decisions that get funneled into new TVs got a small LG C6 oled tv for my home office. they decided that the mute button on the “ai remote” shouldn’t actually mute by default

i was skeptical months back but i've started using @pangram more and more for ai detection. they have a nice browser extension that also flags posts on reddit/x/etc as ai or human. pretty interesting to see how many popular X accounts are all ai generated, especially designers. i also recently learned a design blog i liked had transformed into all ai-generated recently. it's a weird feeling as obviously ai is remarkably helpful for just about everything, but when it comes to reading content that comes from a person's account under the guise that it's all from them, it's a weird feeling. especially when i'm just sitting down saturday morning to catch up on my RSS subs might start embedding this on my blog posts:

first time we’ve shown this part of our office. we probably have a thousand pairs of frames and related bits in the office, many our own concepts as we have a full hardware and eyewear lab in our studio

Sesame Link is a new way orchestrate your other agents like Claude Code using @sesame's expressive voice it's an early preview but we'll be rapidly iterating link.sesame.com/
