the last thing I want to shout into the void that I've been thinking about is how I somehow wanted really really badly to be a product designer when I was 17, entered school where I was taught how to play the game, sunk so many hours into the "product design" game to only play incorrectly

I do think the "cozy web" is now going down the geeks mops sociopaths road... but as always there is nuances, such as video creation being the way to reach people these days but exists in a way that removes context (and agency in browsing)...

hi all! I've been building a link decaying app (linkdump.connie.surf) over the last few months where ephemerality is an impetus to finish projects and also as a way to practice data minimalism. I would love to get some feedback- feel free to DM or reply your thoughts!

I've been thinking about alternatives to genAI coding paradigms - especially in the realm of allowing the user to move up and down the ladder of abstraction: www.connieliu.work/vibe-coding

If anyone has thoughts or feedback please comment!
