🐤 Nug #1 — It was only a matter of time.

AmliArt @amli_art

shut. the. front. door. This is insane. A system to decode visual stimuli from brain recordings. So you're saying...in ten years...it'll be thought to image? link to paper🧵 #ai #deeplearning #mindblown

🐤 Nug #2 — Pretty Things 😍

Rafa @rafahari

This is a tweet of appreciation for @culturedcode Things — a 5 year old _all-new_ app that is still seen as the top reference for great design across platforms. 5 years. Here's some of my favorite UI details:

🐤 Nug #3 — No more timelines?

Descript was super powerful for editing simple video like a podcast or something. But now, by typing /, you can add a new “Scene” to have more granular control over your cuts. Except now… there’s no timeline. Just a doc.

Descript @DescriptApp

Enter - The new Descript 💥 The best way to get your head around the new Descript is to watch our CEO Andrew’s demo in the video below; there’s also a demo project in the app that will show you how to use Scenes and some other new features. 6/21

Ready attempts to answer the question, “what if the calendar was your productivity center instead of a task or note app?” It’s a pretty interesting concept. But to me, it artificially time-boxes non-time-based things like ideas.
