Wow, how did you create these?
robobo96··on Ask HN: What's a good title for a software engineer now?
I think the value is shifting: it's moving from actually building the thing to deciding what to build: Product Engineer?
robobo96··on Ask HN: What are you reading to your kids?
Only have a 1-year-old, but I can imagine reading Narnia to them when they're a bit older. Those books are amazing! Currently mostly reading Miffy (a classic in the Netherlands) and Peppa Pig ;)
robobo96··on Ask HN: How do you get your first users for an MVP?
Depends on where your users are and what your product is. I've got a niche site that runs solely on SEO (I could go to local events, but I simply don't want to). But I can imagine products that would run great with ads, while others won't. Like when users don't search for your solution yet.

Looks amazing! Wondering what those flat disks in the upper jaw are?
robobo96··on Dear Software Makers
I agree. I work at a big insurance company with millions of online visitors each year. By A/B testing, we improve our services. A/B testing error messages has been a huge help for us. We can't ask users directly what they need: most users don't know what they need. That's why we do both qualitative (user research, online feedback forms) and quantitative (A/B testing, fake door testing, etc.) research.

Only html or also css? Opus seems a bit more creative than most other models i've seen.
