I created some decent prototypes with stitch but I don't know how it compares to claude design

I created a gem on Gemini (the equivalent of a gtp) basically with a set of instructions for rewriting my text in a professional, clear and concise way and it works great.

I just write my text without too much thought about it and I get a rewritten version that is usually clearer, but not pedantic or overly verbose.

It particular helps for English text as it is not my first language


Everyone remembers fondly the time they were young, I believe it is more about that then everything else.

I understand your feelings but it is extremely tipical in human history to keep remembering "the good old times"


That may be true, and had you asked me half a lifetime ago, I would have likely said "The old days were better".

But:

I would have still said I enjoyed using computers. And I wouldn't have said "Today's interface sucks" (well, other than my HW not being able to keep up with eye candy...)

I simply don't enjoy using the computer these days. And I do think the interface sucks. Pretty much anything that involves using the web browser sucks - be it a local app or a web app.


I don't either, but I really think Im just burnt out. The simplest things piss me off.

Gemini cli id definitely agentic, cursor and antigravity have agentic tools.

Claude code is simply considered the best agentic tool, not the only one lol


> I believe Twitter, Youtube, Discord, Reddit, Imgur each had no monetization at all for the first 3~5 years of their existence

yes, their business plans was always to engage a lot of users losing VC money until you are a platform with enough moat to add monetization. It was the plan all along

It is the plan for plenty of startups: when it works you become a tech giant, otherwise you fail and no one knows you


Because I never engage with them and they clutter my inbox, especially if I make more than one purchase in the same period.

One email, with the receipt and the tracking number is enough for me, everything else is just noise to me.

I totally agree that it is not an important problem: it is a nitpick, but that is why I think it is a problem.


Or eventually you could answer wrongly to a question without answers, triggering plenty of correct ones

yeah, it's an interesting socio-psychological phenomenon

I read it as "everything controlled by us is local first and we do not collect any data about you"

I agree that someone may misunderstand their phrasing though


I'm definitely not an AI skeptic and I use it constantly for coding, but I don't think we are approaching this future at all without a new technological revolution.

Specifications accurate enough to describe the exact behaviors are basically equivalent to code, also in terms of length, so you basically just change language (and current LLM tech is not on course to be able to handle such big specifications)

Higher level specifications (the ones that make sense) leave some details and assumption to the implementation, so you can not safely ignore the implementation itself and you cannot recreate it easily (each LLM build could change the details and the little assumptions)

So yeah, while I agree that documentation and specifications are more and more important in the AI world, I don't see the path to the conclusions you are drawing


I think the main point is that LLMs are pretty good at following existing patterns and conventions.

If you setup your skeleton in a way it is familiar to you, reviewing new features afterwards is easier.

If you let the LLM start with the skeleton, they may use different patterns and in the long run it's harder to keep track of it.


> they may use different patterns

"Bad" is the word you're looking for, not "different".


Different was fine.
