HOW THE FUCK DO YOU WANT ME TO USE THIS SO IT MAKES THE MOST SENSE? WHY DO I HAVE TO FIGURE THAT OUT FFS?

engineers’ worst nightmare has come true: they all have to become product managers

After latest release country should move on to Epstein trials.

TIL that you can copy an SVG out of Figma (or where ever), give the raw XML to Gemini and ask for a matching responsive Flutter widget, and (depending on the SVG, presumably) it will write a perfect replica.
