AI cannot replace my job. That's the false sense of security a lot of people are running on right now. We're talking directly with the people building and regulating AI. The Intelligence Series. Coming soon 👀 #aiseries #ai #subvisual

UK: law enacted in February 2026; rules due throughout the year. Switzerland: consultation closed in February 2026, still a pre-draft bill. Same month. Years apart in maturity. Full breakdown → content.subvisual.com/uk-switzerla...
6 parts of the Stablecoin Regulation Playbook, mapped: global landscape, Europe, the US, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the UK and Switzerland. Part 7 closes the series in September with a guide to actually issuing a stablecoin. For now, here's the full playbook: buff.ly/GZ2Jt9h
This isn't hypothetical. Programmable spending controls already power DoorDash driver cards. Stablecoin wallets linked to Visa already work at 80M+ merchants. The pieces exist. What's missing is consumer-friendly packaging. Episode 3 of the Stability Series 👉 buff.ly/W1s6ltG #stablecoins #fintech
Coimbra.js is back. September 17 at The Loop Co. in Coimbra — the July edition, rescheduled and ready. Lineup dropping soon. Register 👉 luma.com/jghz5yzs #coimbrajs #javascript #frontend
UK systemic stablecoins: redemption at par within 24 hours, no suspension allowed. Non-systemic: redemption at par, on demand. A harder floor for the coins meant for everyday payments. Full breakdown 👉 content.subvisual.com/uk-switzerla... #stablecoins #ukregulation #fintech #web3 #regulation
We are not strangers to career changes. A nutritionist, a fashion copywriter, and a landscape architect have made the change.

Tech La∩ds #2 · Luma
Tech Lands started with a simple idea from Alex Myers: people building things in Portugal deserve a place to find each other. International perspectives,…

"Early movers won't even have an advantage. They'll just be normal." If stablecoin rails become the default, there's no edge. Just companies that moved, and companies that didn't. Episode 4 of the Stability Series 👉 buff.ly/VFZfU3P #stablecoins #treasury #fintech
Use it, but don't trust it. Álvaro Bezerra, PM at Subvisual, calls it human-in-the-loop: before anything critical goes out, he reviews it himself. Part 2 of our new episode is out now 👉 buff.ly/fhzV02I #productmanagement #ai #podcast
1/ Stablecoin rails aren't a pitch anymore. Tesla runs liquidity across 40+ countries on them. Siemens fires treasury payments automatically. Citi and Maersk settled trade in minutes. Western Union and MoneyGram are rebuilding from the bottom up. #StabilitySeries #stablecoins #fintech #web3
The Stability Series just wrapped. 4 episodes on stablecoins in everyday life: Patreon payouts, loyalty cards, built-in rules, money that never stops moving. We've put the series in a YouTube playlist with all four episodes back to back 👉 buff.ly/al38KRC #stablecoins #web3 #fintech
1/ Switzerland has regulated crypto since 2019, precision over speed. Issuers today lean on a bank guarantee instead of a full license. It works, but it's capacity-constrained. A dedicated license is coming, not before 2028. 🧵↓
At Subvisual, using AI was already routine. Everywhere else, even mentioning you'd used it was still a flex. Carolina Strecht, PM at Subvisual, on the gap she noticed a few months ago. Part 2 of our new episode is out now 👉 content.subvisual.com/podcast/can-... #productmanagement #ai #podcast
Part 2 of Being a PM in the AI Era is out now. Álvaro Bezerra and Carolina Strecht go deeper into how AI bridges roles and speeds up processes, plus what they call AI hygiene. Catch up on Part 1 first if you missed it 👉 buff.ly/UHyQzON Listen to Part 2 👉 buff.ly/fhzV02I #productmanagement #ai
Documentation used to eat hours. Álvaro Bezerra, PM at Subvisual, now calls it basically free, thanks to AI and good agent workflows. New episode is out now 👉 buff.ly/UHyQzON #productmanagement #ai #podcast
1/ The Bank of England proposed capping stablecoin holdings at £20,000 per person. Then it scrapped the idea entirely. Here's what replaced it. 🧵↓
Move $50M from Shanghai to Berlin: 3+ banks, fees everywhere. Try on Saturday? Doors locked. See you Monday. We dig into it in episode 4 of the Stability Series 👉 buff.ly/SQYSLCU #StabilitySeries #stablecoins #treasury #fintech
We're still thinking about Starbase Lisbon 🌟 What a day of sunshine, coworking, and great conversations. Exactly what Starbase is all about. We run these a few times a year, so stay tuned to see where we'll land next 👀
A rule nobody enforces is a suggestion. An unenforced constraint is a comment. Our spec files declare the rules; this lint rule catches anyone (or anything) that ignores them, including the agent. Full build guide → buff.ly/WmqSyPq #componentlibrary #designsystems #softwareengineering #devtools
The UK and Switzerland skipped MiCA entirely and built their own stablecoin regimes. Part 6: a two-tier UK structure that just reversed a major proposal, and a Swiss model that's been running since 2019. → content.subvisual.com/uk-switzerla... #stablecoins #ukregulation #switzerland #web3
We've been watching this too. These are the real blockers for Foundry and Hardhat builders. Help ethui diagnose your setup. See the prescription.
You're building on Ethereum. We're diagnosing your local-dev setup. Foundry or Hardhat? Manually syncing wallets after restarts? Hand-wrangling ABIs? MetaMask friction? Testnet chaos? Tell us what breaks. We'll give you a prescription. → form.ethui.dev #ethdev #ethereum #devtools
1/ Give an agent a spacing prop, and it will eventually write style={{ padding: "16px" }}. Not because it's careless. Because nothing stopped it. Closed tokens close that gap →
