From the sources
Affinity Designer matches Illustrator for most vector work at a one-time price. Here's the honest comparison for designers considering the switch. Affinity Photo matches Photoshop for most image editing tasks at a one-time price. Here's where it wins, where Photoshop is still ahead, and who should switch. Figma and Photoshop are not competitors. One designs interfaces, the other edits images. Here's how they fit together and when to use each. Anima generates code from designs, but the output still needs cleanup. Zeplin's inspect and style guide features are more reliable for day-to-day design-to-dev handoff. Bolt is faster for quick prototypes, but Lovable produces code you can actually…from uiblueprints.com

I have been taking Andrew Ng's Machine Learning course. The lecture module on Neural Networks ends with an intriguing video of the ALVINN autonomous car driving itself along normal roads at CMU in the mid 90s. I was inspired by that video to see what I could build myself. A link to my incomplete write up was posted a couple of weeks ago (ouch!) but I finally finished it and open sourced the code tonight (so you can build your own self driving car).
