Today is particularly special for me and the anniversary of winning a battle with my mental health and smiling at the small things. Feeling grateful 🥲❣️

Head of design of Cursor roasting start up sites made by cursor. I think it's both a curse of Y combinator slop and Ai slop. I appreciate Ryo keeping it real, shows there is a lot of value of designers and engineers.

🤔 Human language/coding language has always slowed down computers. It's intentionally there for us to understand it and speak to it but a computer doesn't have to talk like us

They said multicolor (no dash) is better.
I said, “That’s where I draw the line!"
