hey, I made this for your agent: agent-reference.dev/
It's a CLI/skill that your agent uses to keep copies of code it references, locally. OSS deps, private repos, or other folders

Could not have asked for a better design partner on this project than @tinystride. Rose to the challenge, exceeded every expectation, and quickly became a treasured member of the team.
If you’re looking for a thoughtful designer to bring your project to life, drop Neil a line.
Very proud and honored to have worked alongside @kevintwohy and the @GoodInside team on the brand new Good Inside mobile app.
It's rare you get to work on something that's both personally meaningful *and* so materially improves users' lives.

Ok, can I be honest at the risk of being all [gestures vaguely]? I’ve been doing a bunch of personal projects but I *really* need work. 2023 has been new biz slow, we’ve burned thru our runway and stuff’s about to get squirrely. I can be had cheap! Manifesting rad paying clients.

Investing in design is probably the highest single ROI opportunity that startups leave on the table.
Even for deep B2B tech, A nice logo, interesting colors, and basic art direction makes a startup look so much more believable.
Helps in marketing, sales, and recruiting.

there are a ton of business models that need fundamentally zero innovation but require relentless execution for years
basically every founder ignores these to peruse 180 iq bullshit, just build boring businesses

Like everyone I have no idea where this is all headed, but trying to keep an open mind about the possibilities for empowering regular people to use computers, and avoid gatekeeping even if that's a bit scary for future programmer job prospects...

Let's play it out
Company A fires half their staff yet keeps delivering 100% of their old capacity = they save money
Company B keeps all their staff, but can now deliver 200% of their old capacity = they win the competition
So seems like the strategic move here is to raise the bar rather than replace engineers

Shipped this AI design tool on Figma two weeks ago, and here’s a sneak peak of what’s coming next: fine-tuned models with consistent styles. #stablediffusion #aiart #figma

Design twitter, what course is better? @shiftnudge or @figmaacademy or if you've taken the course, what did you like and dislike about it?
Neil Renicker retweeted
Gonna ship a Figma plugin to go from prompts + simple shapes to design ideas using #stablediffusion #aiart

QTing is probably the single best feature Twitter added since inception.
This is especially true of using QTs in-thread to respond to people. It allows for a richness of commentary not possible anywhere else in microblogging.
