I believe it’s the photographer 😉

I didn’t regret this!

Opus 4.8 has been passive aggressive to me this morning cause I am only using it while waiting for Fable to be restored.

Things that make your codebase legible to agents (learned the hard way): 1. One source of truth. No content hiding in a CMS the agent can't see 2. Names that say what they do 3. Tests that double as docs 4. Delete dead code. Agents trust it like it's load-bearing

While I appreciate the simplification of these, I like this delivery and format @jamwt Hope we see more.

Finally got the chance to catch up on some @theo’s video and found myself here

Person A: "Let's index the entire internet!" Person B: "😂 Sure, just casually rebuild Google. What's next, solving world hunger?" Ilya Sutskever: "Hold my beer."

The hardest part of being a technical founder isn’t shipping fast, it’s learning when not to. At @rivva_app, we were building a mission-critical feature: AI that can look through your emails, understand them, and turn them into actionable insights. It was tempting to build it myself. I knew exactly how to do it: parsing emails, orchestrating agents, turning them into structured data. I could’ve shipped it in two days. But I had a choice: 👉 Do it myself and move fast 👉 Let one of our engineers take ownership, learn deeply, and move a little slower He took four days. But here’s the surprising part — now he doesn’t just understand the code. He understands the why. He joins product meetings with strong opinions, connects engineering decisions to user impact, and even challenges product direction with insights I wouldn’t have thought of. If I had built it myself, we would’ve saved two days. But we would’ve lost a leader in the making. As a CTO, my job isn’t to build every feature. It’s to build the people who’ll build them — even if that means watching someone take the long road that I could’ve sprinted. Speed gets features out the door. Patience builds a team that can ship without you.

Me: “Don’t use any.” Claude Code: “You’re absolutely right.” Claude Code: Thinking deeply…. Claude Code: Searching node modules…. Claude Code: user as any

Agile: move fast Assigned to me:

Tutorial: 5 minutes. Real life: 5 hours of debugging why it doesn’t work like the tutorial.

git still scares the crap out my soul

Convex and Tanstack will change your life

I love @convex

This is such an insightful take on onboarding friction! 💡 Love how you used Growth.Design’s storytelling method - that ‘frustrating first touch’ insight hits hard. 🎯 The way storytelling meets UX critique here is chef’s kiss btw.

Still miss this feeling. Time of my life ❤️

Thank you for having us!

Exciting times ahead!

Losing my first job after only 3 months of being employed. At that time I lost myself but it turned out to become a journey that turned my life around for the better.
