[email protected]Hey, I'm Marciano, a design engineer with 7+ years of shipping consumer apps, platforms and internal tools. I take things from first concept to production code myself, so there's no handoff in between.
Recent stuff:
- Localthings.nl: an AI map builder that went viral during last year's Dutch elections
- Preparty.fm: a video platform for getting in the mood before a night out
- joinvit.club: a health app I'm building now (yes, like everyone)
- uitgever.verydisco.press/en: A project to help Dutch journalists be less dependent on Big Tech.
I'm looking for a part-time role (~24h/week) on something meaningful in health, sustainability or community tech.
I'm at my best where design and engineering are one role (which, by now, I think we can all agree they should be). I own features from first sketch to deploy (these days I mostly design in code and keep Figma for early exploration). I work fast, think in systems and care a lot about clarity and usability. If you're building something people should actually use, let's talk :)
cool! for me its company ethics
why does boris have this urge to become an influencer
its not “oddly”
and u know full well
..every tech company has bern doing this
used their Code product with GLM4.7. its fun but if the model is bad it just doesn’t do much useful.
Hope they add such models to Code too :)
the amount of ads on this page oh lord
zitron is a jester. He knows his audience and plays it well. It is incredibly tiring to listen to his lies, but so are the AI boosters. I think it is net zero
anil sold out stackoverflow
it’s ok to just sympathize instead of running to those conclusions
This resonates. Had this in the start of the year with clients sending me their “research”, which, of course, was just a Deep Research result. Lead me to send this article when I work with folks:
https://www.marcia.no/words/etiquetteI like to think it helped, but likely what helped was that nobody seems to use Deep Research anymore, haha.

i like ur posts. have u considered recording audio for them?
I can totally agree that Apple sucks for doing this, but you seem to insinuate they started this. As always Apple wasn’t first not even tenth: Nintendo, Steam, Xbox, Kindle all did it prior to “the platform economy” 3)
why did they miss the market that is OpenRouter?
In many things in life it’s wise to think further than just what suits your needs personally
the comments in this thread is what makes me love hn
this sounds likely, but they definitely did have real plans with Touch Bar. They thought it was an answer to laptops having a touch screen.
“our stock price went down today, here’s something to feed it”
those lists exist everywhere. They don’t really work so well :)
..so? It’s better than what we have now
