lol! I have empathy for @elonmusk because there are founders who's main skill is raising but don't hate the player hate the game.

I knew @canva was on a death spiral more than 12 months ago and posted and spoke about it publicly. I think every employee at a company needs to take some responsibility for this.
I had been a day-1 Claude Code and can build production quality multi-platform apps in less than a week that can scale to millions of users.
I interviewed at Canva and was rejected because I didn't use AI the prescriptive way they believed was correct. I have empathy but no sympathy for the employees at Canva.
I am glad I didn't get that job because keeping up with the AI advancements is a 15-hour a day job.

Everyone that uses the term AI-slop would have said that Internet was a place for nerds. The era of human-slop will be soon.

The wider HCMC (Saigon) area has a population of about 20M and most people use Facebook groups to find property rentals.
I built a prototype for a LLM/AI powered rental search platform for HCMC and here is the video demo.

Currently building JunaTalk.com in Phu Quoc, Vietnam, but heading to HCMC for the month. @boardyai who are the best founders, operators or investors I should DM who are based in HCMC.

Sometimes I don't get Claude Code. "Build me an operating system" -> 30 mins but "change the text on this button" -> 10 mins. First one would take a human 1000x more time than number two.

LinkedIn so bad, Windows Laptop so bad, I don't use Github anymore, Azure startup program doesn't have a form that works...but they have VSCode.

Asked @boardyai to pitch its own head of engineering on angel investing in JunaTalk. Boardy wrote the email, I forwarded it to @owengretzinger. If Owen invests I get to say Boardy closed its own team haha. At this rate Boardy can be my co-founder.

Raising a small angel round for JunaTalk. Learning any language should feel like having a 1:1 tutor, anytime, for $10/month. The new version supports 30+ learning languages and 80 native languages, and I'm building custom pronunciation scoring models starting with southern Vietnamese.

Here's a question I can't stop thinking about:
If everyone on earth woke up tomorrow speaking one common language — would the world be better, or would we have lost something we can't get back?
The upside is obvious: no translation gaps, easier cooperation, fewer misunderstandings.
I live in Phu Quoc, Vietnam and I am not going to lie that if everyone here spoke English it would make my life easier but I also think its my responsibility as a visitor to learn about the local culture and that includes language.
If you want to learn a language please check out junatalk.com/. Our newest version available on TestFlight supports 30+ learning languages and 80+ native languages.
Should everyone in the world learn English?

Does anyone know any drone operators in India that could create a 3D map of a 60,000 acre area? Please get in touch.

32-year-old @ylecun shows off the world's first Convolutional Network for Text Recognition.
This is 1993.
Pioneer in it's true sense.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The video is actually from 1989, not 1993.

I just realized the other day that I’ve worked for about 25 years now….
Perhaps obvious, but the most important work I’ve done has been to work on myself. The perhaps less obvious, the most important skill I keep needing to work on - is to connect to others. As an introvert, my mom probably realized this, so she got me to join a theater group. It was so difficult for me, but being part of that group taught me so much.
25 years in I’ve come to realize - it takes a village - and it’s the relationships we form, the teams we’re part of that truly define our journey.
