New comment by nadis in "The World-Building Doors Are Open, Again"

nadis — Tue, 23 Jun 2026 20:51:18 +0000

> "The models are finally ready. Costs of inference are getting optimized with open models, and even on-device models. And, when I first experienced OpenClaw earlier this year, I had the epiphany that it isn’t the models that matter, but the harnesses, loops, and context which will lead to so many new opportunities ahead. Just as we’re learning in enterprise, we can finally invent new products that allow users to do things more naturally, using simple language to express their needs."

This part resonated a lot, personally.

Seems like a wild move from the Devin team. Very curious about the metrics going into their "estimator" and also that they compared it to human estimates as a measure of success.

New comment by nadis in "We tore down our no-code site and went back to code"

This is a bit of a tangent but can you explain the Western gaming studios analogy a bit further? It's not something I'm familiar with but am curious (I get the idea and broad parallel, but actually would love to better understand the details).

I wondered about this as well, but could also imagine AI tools (perhaps at the application layer and not root-LLM layer) helping to mitigate this - that's a world I've been exploring.

Don't think we're there yet, but it feels like there's a future dream of everyone being able to build and maintain custom software with AI, and not having to make the tradeoff of creativity vs. components that's historically been true with low/no code.

That said, where we are today, completely agree with what you're saying. LLMs like to generate code, and in my experience are pretty bad at iterating on or maintaining the prolific code they've created.

New comment by nadis in "The Two X's Problem: Why AI-designed brands feel like AI-designed brands"

nadis — Tue, 19 May 2026 13:57:30 +0000

I found this exploration super interesting, especially the points around when it's okay for design to feel "generic" (when speed matters above all else) versus when design needs to feel "good" (squishy word, but in this case more thoughtful, unique, and deliberate).

New comment by nadis in "The Building Block Economy"

nadis — Wed, 08 Apr 2026 21:25:17 +0000

> The most effective way to build software and get massive adoption is no longer high quality mainline apps but via building blocks that enable and encourage others to build quantity over quality.

I read the first sentence and immediately got excited. Building blocks, but not in the traditional sense of no / low code where you trade off creative flexibility for constrained preexisting blocks. Instead, it's building blocks that enable more people to build higher quality application experiences. Not slop, not copy/paste components, but something creative.
