what are the plans to support design systems? no one seems to be able to do this. prototyping doesn't happen in a vacuum, I'll always want to use the design system we spent months building in Figma.

I'd argue it's almost the opposite - huge swathes of London are housed in shitty Victorian and Georgian homes and flat conversions, and we can't fix them up or replace them with modern homes because of extreme local conservation laws. Right now I'm living in the most modern home I ever have - a 700sqft 2-bed from the 1960s.
exactly! I do not understand the British obsession for preserving insane amounts of crooked-walled buildings with horrible insulation ratings. zero historical interest, 100% NIMBY-ism. then the general populace mopes about the lack of housing, and dreams 15-minute cities without realising the only way to solve both is tear down what’s taking up space and build tall instead.

I am bootstrapping UsePixie.com, which is a Basecamp for accountants. Just barely launched in fact. Feedback has been really good and a few firms are using it. Tiny team, distributed, but the company’s UK based.
I’m looking for a full stack tech lead to take over from me, but I’d surely prefer a more experienced/senior long term partner/co-founder.
Tech stack is Rails running on AWS, with sprinkles of Vue in a few key parts of the app.
These are the principles that have guided us so far: https://medium.com/pomarhq/pomars-guiding-principles-ca00356...
If anyone’s interested my email is celso@usepixie.com
No. Although the email parser as a service idea is nice, it has a couple of major downsides.
For starters, it’s now a GDPR world: I want to avoid the risk of breaches on your side affecting mine. Secondly, today you want to send nice compensation emails, tomorrow (under pressure from your board) you start mining the emails for competitive research and increased monetisation. I wouldn’t want to put the reputation of my service on the line for this.
The LLM tells me that they prefere the "older way" because it's more broadly compatible, that's ok if you are aiming for that. But If the programmer doesn't know about that they will be stuck with the LLM calling the shots for them.
