TUNED TO THIS CLIP

ppl who are writing code by hand in 2026

Office life before the invention of AutoCAD and other drafting software. Prior to the release of AutoCAD in 1982, engineering drawings were all done by hand using different grade pencils, erasers, T-squares and set squares.

Okay, motion designers are 100% cooked. Saw on x that Opus 5.5 could do advanced animations and I was skeptical at first. So I gave it a one sentence prompt, and it one shot this in 15 minutes. Will add the prompt below, but this is genuinely mind blowing. This level of work

Same equation. Two different mindsets.😄 🧠 Mathematician: "Is it correct?" 🔧 Engineer: "Does it work?" Which method do you prefer?

@Engineer Things

Little internal project we shipped at @designme earlier this year Swipe through your daily tasks, set reminders, delegate options. Still difficult to imagine you can just ship an idea like this in one day. What a time to be a designer!

Proof for engineering update

the one software engineer who actually understands the legacy code.

@Captain Insight

When the Engineer studied online 🤣
