one of the most underrated asymmetries right now is that slop is totally fine for the backend and basically fatal in the frontend. if you’re backend is slop, the app still works. if your front end and overall experience is slop, the *product* does not.

I think design school puts too much emphasis on explaining and justifying all of your design decisions Design and art are a language far more complex than any spoken / written language, to put it into words only waters down what your true intentions were Trying to explain your work is a whole other job in itself which distracts you from your main job which is creating important things that you believe should exist in the world

This is a very textbook phenomenon in the market called “rotation out of all the names you specifically own and into names you don’t”. This happens when all the market participants have a meeting you aren’t invited to and decide they hate you.

your job as a product engineer in October 2026 is to have freewheeling unstructured zoom calls with stakeholders where you explore all corners of the problem domain and after you hang up type into claude code "read the meeting transcript and do what we decided"

PCBs made in America. Twice as fast as Shenzhen. Today @CircuitHub is unveiling The Grid, our factory-scale robot in Massachusetts that builds circuit boards on demand. No changeovers, no per-design setup. Prototypes and production batches, fully automated.
