@briancasel.com hey Brian! Thanks for Design OS, it is absolutely great!

I have a project already made, but want to refactor the whole interface to be consistent and… well… good. So is it possible to create frontend with Design OS and than just connect it with my backend? Looks like it is, right?

Well. We are in top 4. Not bad. And again — Wirtz is a top-top-top player along with Ekitike. So cool we have them both in a squad!

Tested this tool yesterday — absolute must have. Very helpfull. Will refactor two of my products with it during the holidays.
Introducing Design OS—the missing design process between your idea and your codebase.

Step 1: Define your product's vision
Step 2: Design your screens
Step 3: Export production-ready components

Not mockups. Real components. Ready to implement.

First five episodes were cool. But what happened next is a total storytelling disaster and a flop. Very bad second half of the show filled with some sudden magic super power of characters and “no time to explain” things.

My 2 goals for 2026:

1. Finish my sci-fi book at last
2. Visit all music festivals that will be in Portugal

For both of the goals I need time. Time I can buy. To buy time (and a house, yeah, as my wife says) I need money. So my goal — earn money to buy time to finish book and go to music festivals

This is so sad. I love his music, he is mostly known by his mainstream hits, but he was a great blues musician as well. And his blues albums are extremely beautiful (Blue Guitars series, for example).

Watching Flo personaly every game, he is so cool, so smart! Assist to Isak was a masterpiece. And love how Frimpong contributed yesterday!

Preparing my personal "2025 Wrapped". This screenshot shows how much I’ve spent on AI work since November 1st — aifornewsroom.in, sevenly.in, novocean.me, one large client project, and seven smaller ones combined.

New version of Sevenly just arrived. New look, new stats, new songs:

An amazing new book by one of my fav author — Alastair Reynolds. It was a great surprise to find out the name of the main character — Yuri Gagarin (first man in space).

Well, there's a photo I never expected to see in my life. Noam Chomsky palling around with Steve Bannon.

Dom, Kurtis, Conor and FLO! But, frankly, very solid performance from all team. My second visit of San Siro’s away game for LFC and second win. Good job, lads!

Mohamed Salah's decision to talk to reporters was premeditated.

Salah’s sense of hurt and dissatisfaction is understandable. His pride has been severely dented.

But that does not excuse his decision to go nuclear.

I was in San Siro that day. And almost in 4 years, going to see, how are we going to deal with Salah-gate on Tuesday in Milan as well.

No player or coach is above the club. That’s what Mo should know.
On this day in 2021: Liverpool FC beat AC Milan 2-1 in a Champions League group stage game at San Siro.

Mohamed Salah and Divock Origi with the goals. Nat Phillips with the great Cruyff turn in the box😆

Completely agree with Dan here.

If Salah has an issue, fine. No problem with that at all. But you don't go giving interviews that multiply the feeling of crisis around the club, and adds pressure on your own teammates. You especially don't do that if you're the Vice Captain. #LFC
Worst thing about the Salah stuff is that its in public.
Even though we have been in crisis for 10 weeks, the whole club has stayed pretty united in public, no briefing, no politicking. Until now. And its unacceptable #lfc

OMFG, Mo! Are you serious?! Not gonna fight for the position? Everyone should fight but you’re not gonna to do this?! Why? You played bad! Everyone is in rotation now, ‘cause we need to find optimal squad for each game.

I do love Mo, but the things he said are not accaptable.

Hope Wirtz will be MVP today as MacAlister is on the bench. Didn’t like how Maca has been avoiding passing to Flo during the last games.
Today’s #LFC team v Leeds.
Your thoughts on that starting XI?

We have a long weekend here in Portugal — three days (Monday included!). And it's a good time to start updating my favorite pet project — Sevenly.in. In January 1st there will be completely new interface and some new features that will improve players' experience.

The reason why AI chatbots are not so popular among young people is because when dealing with chatbots you need to formulate the request, social media just give them a bubble gum with no actions required except scrolling. Youngs are lazy :) That’s why chats are not common for them. Yet.
Young adults are slightly more likely than the two oldest age groups to say they get news from AI chatbots (13%), but the share who get news this way is still relatively small compared with other digital platforms.

✨ New preprint: The facets of data in news organizations

Our researcher @ferraribraun.bsky.social co-authored this study looking at the role of data as the intermediary layer between journalists and AI technologies, and unpacking how it's embedded in practices.

The most significant moment of 2025 for responsible AI:
Anthropic agreeing to pay authors.
That’s according to Xiaochen Zhang, at Chicago’s AI 2030 end of year event.
It means paying content providers is a “need to do” rather than a “nice to do”.
