Working in iterations

I’m redesigning this site bit by bit, which you can read about. This is just a temporary UI. Sorry for any jank!

  • I normally always support whatever English side is in a European final, but I really want Antony to win a trophy so Utd can get more money for him

  • Our first open working project starts today!

    We're going to publish 3 posts this week, all of which are focused on the early part of a project and how we front-load as much planning and exploration as possible to smooth the production process.

  • it’s pretty bleak that the “success” of bluesky is being questioned because “number go down”

    why are we so obsessed with everything being a KPI of some sort

    if you like using it: cool if you don’t like using it: also cool

    there probably won’t be another “town square” and that’s probs fine

  • It’s great that the AT protocol is open and lets you build tools that work for you, but take a step back and think about how something that — for example — relentlessly likes posts might actually be super annoying.

    Deffo will be making people feel harassed too FYI

  • andy why are you mad all the time?

    mainly because i get these all day

    Hey Andy, Love what you do at Set Studio and your work with startups and big brands. worked with design agencies lately and wanted to run something by you. am new to this, so please bear with me. But I put something interesting together a few months ago that works well. TLDR: it's an outreach system that uses AI to find people hiring website devs. Then pitches them with templates. Costs just a few cents to run, very high converting. ran something similar for another agency, WeCreateBrand, got to the point where we were adding 57 appts per month. Similar service business, although they target AI Agencies. I know this is completely out of left field, but am fairly confident we could do something similar. Wanted to see if there was interest, you were one of the first people I found when looking into it. Would this be of value to you at all? If you're open we work out some sort of deal (but up to you). Could I show you over a 15min call this week? I'm kind of awkward over the phone, but we can chat if you're game.

  • Use ${currentTechHypeCycle} or you'll be left behind

    A very old hand-drawn demon-like character is bent over. There's sheet music on their back and they are playing some sort of clarinet-like instrument with their arse hole.
