Being heads down offline for over a week broke me of my daily /farville and other addictive mini-app patterns. Kinda grateful for that tbh. Gonna miss you Farville.

Thank you @senyil and @downshift.eth for the tips as I return from my insane sprint of heads down work. Also a thank you to @chukwukaosakwe and @sdv.eth for your feedback and support on the teaser I shared this week. I feel the support all around!

Never thought I’d be this deep in the guts of a design system in my career but it kind of feels like the final frontier for creating end-to-end visual identities for companies with digital needs. Next step is empowering others with the tools and AI-assistance to autonomously connect design to code.

Been deep in the trenches. Worked through the weekend. Here's a look at new content-rich chips for Decent's UI. Turns out going "off the shelf" still requires hours of styling and layout for products already well-along in their development journey.

Psychedelic Porn Crumpets’ 7th LP is probably their best work yet. Surprisingly mellow throughout, with a ton of genres packed into its tracklist (even a quick math rock detour on “Qwik Maff”). Their swirling, wooly guitar riffs and kaleidoscopic melodies create a journey that launches out from the start and goes off on a vast, beautiful journey. Favorite tracks: Qwik Maff, As the Hummingbird Hovers https://open.spotify.com/album/16GtmNPUFAfLM3l3pZFNye?si=gcZJ42E6Ty2B16uVtNjX5g

Tried to build our design system. Too much to do in flight with pivoting product directions. Pivoting to open source library. Lots of valuable lessons learned.

Are there any wallet extensions for Firefox that work with Ledger hardware wallets? I was using Frame but have been having more issues with it — not having any luck finding alternatives.

We just updated our website and dropped our new domain, decent.build! Decent is enabling the missing app layer for Web3 by automating away the complexities of tokenization for startups with an end-to-end operations platform to raise, launch, and scale entirely onchain. Go check it out and let me know what you think!f

Accidentally made eye contact with a cockroach while killing it and I’m afraid it uploaded my face to the cockroach hive mind as public enemy #1.
