I disagree entirely. Imagine generation in the last 6-months has been an entirely different animal. Generating large artistic concepts has plateaued for sure, but nitty gritty image work is massively better in 2026.

He's shown me his set up in his basement. It's sick! Talk about your 3d printer next!

Stealing is a source of flattery. I've had logos I've designed outright copied. Jokes on them: They discovered they could not copyright the mark and had to rebrand (again).

Stealing is stealing unless you're really good at it.

Great rant! Claw based propaganda posters makes me smile.

My man! I love these sorts of sites.

Absolutely love this! Yay robots!

The IoT scene is so fun now with the robot.

I really wish we could have public visual discourse like this in the United States...

Agreed. A bunch of tech professionals I work with, in private, talk about how scary AI is but nobody dare say anything in public as to hurt the bottom line. Add that to climate change...

I love it and have built my entire career around being an agile designer. It beats the shit out of everything else IF you practice it correctly.

Because it is the cheapest...

If there is "nothing to ever see" then there is no reason to verify....right guys and girls? Right? So frustrating.

We should be having a large national initiative to improve voting nationwide.

Just start writing and publishing things online. You don't need to have a brand name or a fancy web site at first. The first step is getting in the habit of constantly publishing content. After awhile you will figure out what you like to write about and post.

Old saying I hear years ago: "If it doesn't exist online or in a museum - it doesn't exist at all."

Branding comes after you understand what direction you want to go. Then my advice is steer your content in a direction focused on what makes you money. Design, programming, etc. I have been at my site for 10 years. It started as a random pile of images but after years of slowly working on it, my site is really coming together: http://thoughtmerchants.com/.

As a surfer living and working in Venice California, I love wavestorms. We can identify noobs from a distance.

I am glad that Wavestorms are democratizing surfing. Previously you would need to buy a fragile $800 surfboard to start.

Go Paul and Todd! Go!

Congrats Paul and Todd!

As my little side project with a friend - glad to see not only did it get reposted on HN but also the code fucked with :)

W00t my project gets a 4.0!

The turnout is over 280 people this year!

I was talking to a friend about it and he was telling me that it is the "Best in the business at what it does." That is a scary thought.

To give more context, my grandparents asked me to help them "figure out" their new car. After a few minutes driving it, I told them I was in no position to offer them guidance.
