@natalie.sh have you had an opportunity to build with paper?

The extent to which Figma is deeply the wrong tool for all of this is very interesting to me. Some of the conversations I've seen in /r/designsystems really demonstrate the issue. Figma as the source of truth is really challenging w/ an agentic coding flow.

Seems neat! I'll give it a shot. All of these tools feel like they're focusing just on a single part of the design & iteration process. I'm not really sure what to make of it, and who's going get to a full workflow first.

Legit

Grain is very good!

Watching products like Lovable, Figma Make and Google Stitch popup is neat but doesn't strike me as something you could maintain a product around.

Storybook's MCP is interesting, I'm curious to see if there are more tools in that vein

This is happening very quickly and still ongoing. I just killed all my app passwords, will respawn one at a time.

I need a bluesky client that does spell check.

Threads also iterates and listens to some feedback. The fact that they turned the "dear algorithm" complains into an actually feature is both funny and a win for their responsiveness.

Tho again doesn't move the needle for me or for community work imo.

Impeccable: Design skills for AI harnesses 1 skill, 18 commands, and curated anti-patterns for impeccable frontend design. Works with Cursor, Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and Codex CLI.

Seeing folks post about impeccable.style and it's a bummer that @pbakaus.bsky.social has an account but isn't really here.

The state of UI and llm coding is super relevant rn and Impeccable's approach is way more interesting than others.

For better and worse Threads is a very visual medium. For a while I had it trained to show me indie game dev and blender3d content.

Downside is it is basically impossible to get any traction in unless you post like an Instagrammer.

Every time someone threatens not to use an atproto app I think about a dinner I had where a Threads dev told me they onboard the entirety of the Bluesky/Atmosphere user base every single day.

And Threads comes up in casual conversation I have with people. So im curious

Passwords you can use with other apps. Mostly other apps have switched to oauth

Judges Fired After Blocking Deportations of Pro-Palestinian Students

BREAKING: the judges who dismissed high-profile cases in immigration court against two international students who have advocated for Palestinian causes, Rümeysa Öztürk and Mohsen Mahdawi, were fired yesterday, alongside four other judges.

/w @haleaziz.bsky.social and @nicknehamas.bsky.social

Ah well. He blocked me.

You can't imaging someone saying "make the financial decision that most benefits me if it's all the same to you"?

It does sound like you're inferring something that he doesn't actually say, tho I agree what he's saying isn't ideal

Yeah I'd love a citation, so I can read more about what he said

ProTip: you can have multiple handles in your DID document!

For example, you can see I am both @filippo.io and @filippo.abyssdomain.expert. pdsls.dev/at://did:plc...

@bsky.app uses the first, but also loads profile links for the others. bsky.app/profile/fili...

@tangled.org lets you pick now!

Wheeeee a lot of people not meeting the moment

I'm convinced a bunch of those are bots and not real people

People make fun of government agencies for still being on Flickr but photos produced by the government are copyright-free and I have yet to see a better photo-centric platform for delivering higher resolution photos that anyone can easily download.

There are green shoots in that direction for sure. Start.coop posted roles for shared services for journo union/coops just this week.

For a while First Look Media ran a legal defense fund that included legal expertise, which looks like it's shifted over to pro bono model

But the problem is our institutions are broken. There is no going back, only forward. This is an important threat vector to keep aware of when it comes to independent reporting!

Publications like Mother Jones have had their insurance rates skyrocket because the targets of their investigations have enough money to drag them through multi-year legal processes.

It doesn't always work. Gawker ceased to exist both because they weren't buttoned up internally and because the mega wealthy Peter Thiel wanted to bankroll its destruction.

This is the real fundamental challenge of the creator journalism age. Journalism outlets are institutions and can bring some fire power to some legal battles, or dissuade moneyed litigants from trying to destroy individual reporters.
