Welcome @ronithhh @polarizz39 @jensrst @interfaceclub!
They’re amongst the handful of teams that care deeply about craft and design
Suffice to say, we’re insanely excited to have them
Can’t wait to show you all what we’ve been cooking
Interface Club has been acquired by @variantui!
So proud of the work the team shipped over the past couple years. Here are some of the highlights:
Claude Opus 5.5 writes a fugue in the style of Bach. I called Astra’s fugue the most impressive musical feat I’d ever seen from an LLM, and this is just as good. The circle-of-fifths sequence beginning at 1:13 is beautiful. The interplay of voices is natural and satisfying. LLMs are getting to the point where their music is good enough to listen to for pure enjoyment.
Excited to be a small part of this, it’s exactly the kind of school I would’ve killed to attend
Instead, I had to ditch class so I could tinker with computers
Kids shouldn’t have to choose between attendance and following their curiosity and passions
Instinct at $10B makes sense if you think they’re competing for what could be the final consumer software play
And it’s the only one of the leading horses with VC upside

Blessed to work with the very talented @doriancottin
Easily the most underrated design engineer
Replying to @k_grajeda
here's my take on this, i think cubic bezier curves are the best way to achieve a smooth result here
the tab and the body stay one single path the whole time. when the gap gets too small for a full corner, it morphs into one S-curve with a shared tangent, so nothing ever looks disconnected
your thread got me nerding out on this haha
