As someone who has used, and even enjoyed, React Native: Do they sell what Philippe was smoking?

New features prepped for 1.1.0, now that 1.0.1 is out to testers. 1.0.1 fixed a lot of graphical bugs, whereas 1.1.0 is focusing on refining the main flow. This shows the new due date/time feature. Dopa will remind you randomly before a task is due. Next up: "snoozing" #buildinpublic #shipaton

Here's a newer video of Dopameow. I'm using it as my dev to do list! Also, I made some cool haptic stuff. Which I can't show. But it's there!

Got Dopameow in the hands of some testers today. But I still need more, see my last post for sign up deets. Anyways! Next up I need to fix the bugs me and the testers have found. Like light mode being treated like more as a suggestion. And weird sizing stuff. Video is of a slightly earlier version

Behold, an app. It's a todo list app. With cat. It's 100% human made. And it needs testers, wow! 12 whole testing humans. Sign up today to have a virtual cat yell at you via push notification to work on your todo list. FOR FREE! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Stop calling it "AI training." Start calling it cultural vandalism. Court filings reveal Anthropic ran a secret operation called "Project Panama," buying up to 2 million physical books just to destroy them. Spines cut by hydraulic machinery, pages scanned, and text shredded into data.

I'm actually feeling blocked on drawing a stupid cat because I usually draw on my ipad and my apple pencil kicked the bucket. I loved drawing with the ipad so much that I rehomed all my other drawing tablets, and now even drawing with paper feels... different. Off. this is a metaphor for gen AI.

Here's another spoilery update for my upcoming original-application-concept-do-not-steal I have but two tasks before this app becomes an MVP. I need to draw a cat. I also need a recording of a meow. Jury's out on where I get that. Here's hoping my dignity remains intact. #anti-AI

Is there a starter-pack/list/feed for software devs who are anti-AI? I see a lot for artists, even found one for game devs, and that's rad! But I wanna know I'm not alone. If I have to make one myself I will... let me know if you're a dev who hates having their skills atrophied in the name of evil

There comes a day in the life of every little ADHD goblin that they must build a to do list app. Today... that day comes for me. I'm doing it, I'm building a to do list app. BUT DIFFERENT I SWEAR. It's part of the revenueCat #shipaton. And it'll be really annoying. Like, obnoxious. Stay tuned. 🐈

I love balancing this reality with people's expectations. Tell a new friend that I work in tech? "wow so cool" Meanwhile I have a friend who's a different kind of engineer (civil engineer, works with water pipes n stuff mainly) and they keep asking if I want to quit tech and dig holes. And I do.
