Wender is the fastest AI design tool... and it's live on @ProductHunt today! I have worked SO hard to make Wender a great experience and useful tool, and it would mean the world to me if you would check it out and RT this post.

The reason Dark is remembered as such a great show is because it ended after three seasons. Mystery box shows should all be written as three season stories. Lost went six, that's three too many. Westworld tried to do four. Too greedy. Keep it to three.
I told Grok Bot to book me a car service appointment. Easy task. Google location. Top link. Fill out service form, pick a slot. It filled out the sales team form and now car salesman text me every day. Still had to book the appointment myself. AGI is near.
Terra 6.1 feels so incredibly lazy when you're used to Sol and Opus. I keep getting messages like, "Ok I did this and this, here's all the stuff I didn't do." I've gotten used to models going above and beyond and forgot how annoying it was to work with a bare minimum model.
Frank Herbert: “I wrote the Dune series because I had this idea that charismatic leaders ought to come with a warning label on their forehead: 'May be dangerous to your health.’” Denis used Chani to deliver that warning to the viewers, and of course many hate her for it.
Are your engineers better at code review than Opus 5.5? Are they just using Opus to review big PRs anyway? Is your manual code review step really a human reading through the changes or is it just automated code review in disguise and it’s time to call it?
Apple’s 404 page iPod has a bug that renders a vertical white line at the playhead. Get Opus 5.5 on this, stat.
Google and Meta are fundamentally ad tech companies so I trust Apple much more because they’re not an ad company who wants all my data. Much better to align with a hardware company not dependent on ad revenue degrading every software experience. Right? RIGHT?
Been saying forever that AI safety debates are like if humans had just invented guns and everyone was debating whether or not the guns will come alive and kill us, but no one is saying “Hey what if a human picks up the gun though?” This month people started picking up the guns.
John, we love you, but calling other people bad designers when this is the iOS experience on your site is wild.
Sneak peek of Wender desktop that fixes all the stuff I hate about Wender: design with any agent over MCP, use your actual Storybook components, full WYSIWYG editing on HTML frames. Great for editing your actual code and trying ideas locally outside your codebase.
It was tough to decide to start over but it was time because I noticed wasn't really using Wender at work. I need a Mac app. I need to use my components. I need the components to be fully interactive. I need to use Claude Code, not some crappy built in agent. I need FULL design tool point and click interactivity and freedom to design manually. I'm using this daily. I really love it, and that's my primary goal. Lots to do but it feels like I'm on the right track!
I fully expect as they migrate Claude design into Claude Code that this becomes less and less useful for folks. I’ve decided not to worry about that and to simply focus on building a great AI first design canvas that works with any model and agent.
My wife got us tickets to see @BillNye tonight for my birthday. This nerd is very excited.
