Robbie and I chin wag and sip on a tasty dram with Denver Cramer; industrial designer, distiller, photographer, and creator of Denver and Liely glassware.

Dude, Denver is coo.

The dram #

We enjoyed a sweet n' peaty Starward single malt finished in a Lagavulin cask 😍

Red wine barrels, Melbourne's four-seasons-in-a-day climate, and grassiness fading into sweetness.

Plus we dig tons into other whiskeys, like why Octomore 8.3 is the ultimate peat monster.

The glassware #

We dig into designing a bourbon glass for corn spirits versus a whisky glass for barley, smelling at the top versus the bottom of the glass, and eight years of R&D.

The staple whiskey glass is the bourbon glass:

I LOVE the feel and aesthetics of the turbine wine glass:

Then there's me, the scotch drinker, and I love the feel, weight, and features of the whiskey glass:

The whatnot #

Of course we gotta bring the whatnot!

• raising kids before and after AI
• teaching them to code with retro video games
• planting 400 Pinot Noir vines to learn winemaking
• luthiers versus engineers
• and why the banjo is part drum, part guitar, part lead singer

Meta-Harnesses, Medical Midjourney, and Why Specialists Are Cooked

Robbie and I are back together, talking token limits, OpenCode burning budgets, work trees for parallel agents, Impeccable's art direction grilling, CodeRabbit versus Copilot for PR reviews, self-healing loops that never heal, a robot lawnmower named Jeff, and why the meta harness layer is probably going to die soon.

Neat CSS trick:

Use anchor to track the size changes in a textarea (or whatever) and transition instead of instantly update 🤘🏻

With Brad Frost ✨

Robbie and I welcome Brad Frost to talk grief and acceptance around AI, the Orchid synth, snowboarding as a metaphor for finding your line through chaos, why domain expertise matters more than ever, Van Halen's green M&Ms, and Brad's AI and Design Systems course.
