is AI making designers and developers obsolete, or is this the biggest opportunity we've ever had? last week, @dancolta and I sat down for our first podcast together, and what was supposed to be a casual conversation turned into 2 hours of pretty honest discussions about building businesses in the age of AI: we talked about: - how AI is changing the way we design, develop, and build products - the pivots we've made in our own businesses - why traditional skills alone might not be enough anymore - how creatives and software engineers can adapt and stay relevant - the wins, failures, and uncertainties that don't usually make it onto LinkedIn the full episode is now live on YouTube: youtube.com/watch?v=hd5mdKAq… would love to hear your thoughts, especially if you're navigating these changes yourself.
Me and @_julianbp recorded a podcast about the year AI hype got into both of our heads, mostly the stuff that went wrong and the anxiety of building things for a living when suddenly everyone can:) ⠀ We got into how our work changed once anyone could vibe code an app in a weekend, from my January where nobody came back to Julian watching new design work dry up for a while:) ⠀ nothing fancy, two guys on a couch saying it how it is (first episode btw, so go easy on us pls) ⠀ Full episode is on YouTube and i'll be posting some cuts from it over the next few weeks :) ⠀ youtu.be/hd5mdKAq0xM

13 years I built without talking about it. I learned on my own. I tested. I failed. I refined. most people who know me still don’t know what I do. In 2026, that changes. I don’t fit into a title, but I operate on a few core drivers: - I create. - I build systems. - I solve hard problems for people who play seriously. that’s what led me to become a Creative Director for tech startups at critical moments - where credibility and first impressions make the difference between investment and failure. grow or die. in parallel, I help burned-out freelancers become business owners. and design teams stuck in execution level up to senior thinking. I’m 28. 13 years of accumulation. this year, I start showing the work. - the processes. - the decisions. - the mistakes. not for validation. but for those at the beginning of the road, looking for clarity and confidence. if you’re a freelancer who knows you’re capable of more, or a designer stuck in execution and in need of real direction - follow along.

spent the last 6 months with my team @ Onetap designing the UX/UI for @XoxnoNetwork’s new lending protocol. excited to see it live 🔥 it’s one of the most user-centric & transparent lending protocols in web3. I may be biased - prove me wrong. excited to see how the community uses it & what feedback rolls in. feels like a big turning point for both XOXNO & @MultiversX 🚀
Lend. Borrow. Leverage on chain. Swap collateral instantly. Repay debt in one move. See every position with full transparency. Unlock the lowest fees on MvX. The first fully open-sourced DeFi protocol has landed on @MultiversX 🚀

most freelancers can’t sell a $5k offer not because they “don’t have the audience" but because their positioning makes $5k feel like $50k. here’s how to flip it so $5k feels like a no-brainer 🧵

this is the entire stack I use to run a design agency: • @X - generate leads • @telegram - communicate • @figma - deliver the work • @ChatGPTapp - brainstorm • @notion - stay organized if you’re a solopreneur trying to stay sane and still make money - use this.

I was bullet-journaling in a notebook for 10 years. but when I found Notion, everything changed. this planner became my first digital system, and it’s still the one I use every day. it helped me: • stay organized • plan months in advance • manage chaos • reach my goals I’ve been using it to juggle multiple clients, ship work on time, and stay sane as a creative solopreneur. today I’m sharing it for free.

“The COCKROACH of startups.” “You should NOT build this.” “Classic example of a BAD app idea.” that’s what judges told me… live… during my first-ever product pitch. Parkswap update #9 🧵

Parkswap Update #8 a guy liked my Parkswap demo and randomly invited me to pitch it at an event in Constanta - tomorrow. never pitched a product to investors before. chat, how do I not fuck this up? (this is my deck)
i did it. i fucking DID IT!! Parkswap Update #7 took me 3 days, countless refactors, broke the app like 54 times, almost quit. but i kept pushing - and finally integrated Google Auth & Apple Pay!

tapped into app building as a product designer and it literally rewired my brain. now i wanna vibe-code apps that actually solve problems (and feel good doing it). not about perfection. just about shipping ideas, fast. my pov for the last month 👇

found a ridiculously fast way to annotate my UI designs for handoff. no more endless threads about 'what does this button do?'. kinda wish i learned this sooner. would it help you as a dev?

designed a quick logo for it, what do you think?
Bolt Hackathon - ParkSwap Update #2 After spending 10M tokens, I built nearly all core Driver POV flows. 🎉 Biggest pain in the ass was the seamless Driver/Host role switching, costing me 2M tokens. To-do: - Complete Host POV core flows (spot listing, approval, payouts) - Fix filtering - Integrate Google Maps - Integrate payment system - Clean up UI - Remove unnecessary sections - Implement new design system - Design logo - Fix minor UI/UX and animation bugs - Tie up loose ends - Test test test - Publish on App Store - Design and launch landing page - Launch publicly across channels My goal is to keep UX simple with essential features for quick launch: Drivers book and pay fast, Hosts list and get paid fast. Seven days left until the hackathon ends, so I must hurry.

I'm building ParkSwap - Airbnb, but for your car 🚗 (update #1) The idea is simple: - Live in a crowded city? Instantly rent a private parking spot when you need it. - Have an empty spot? Rent it out and earn cash. As a car owner in Bucharest, I've spent countless frustrating hours hunting for parking, while residential spots stay empty or shamelessly taken by strangers. Couldn't find a local solution, so I decided to fix it myself. Built a raw prototype with bolt.new (pretty happy!), but wasted hours and 2.5M tokens fighting with Google OAuth flow and reverted back to old-school email/pass login for now 🤷‍♂️ (I’ll revisit it later) Current focus: Nail core flows & test, test, test. Next up (the fun part!): [ ] Quick logo & brand identity [ ] Lightweight Figma Design System (colors, fonts, components) [ ] Landing Page [ ] Online presence [ ] Public launch Next update coming soon.

Let’s redesign the @ChatGPTapp mobile UI. I will make these videos to show how I think, how I solve problems, and how small changes can make a product feel 10x better. If OpenAI ever adopts this - cool. But I’m not counting on it.
