Good Monday morning! ☀️ Today marks the online opening of Achiral. The future of AI isn't just about bigger models — it's about better memory. The memories your teams create, own, and build upon over time. Achiral helps businesses turn their collective knowledge into AI that learns, grows, and evo

LLMs make mistakes. Well, what about our bloated designs, degraded code bases, need for mentoring, need for code reviews, and busy exception tracking services say about us?

Just had my first interaction with traditional media today. Spoke about optimism in AI community about the future of mankind at length. Until they decided to move on to something else that wasn’t even relevant to the subject of technology. 😆 😅

i spent about 15 minutes on that x-rated xitter of a website. it’s full of hateful psychopaths and sociopaths selling AI crapware to each other and the blue sky. everyone is shoving on rudely. i need a shower now.

Interestingly, all the indiehackers I know are talking about the only thing that’s engulfing them wholesale. 🙂 Methinks computer science has really upended the world order this time. 😌

I prefer Bluesky over others because I’m sure about interacting with fellow developers over here. You know, accounts with a human being behind it. 🙂

Considering a founder-level partnership is a massive decision. Unless you ignore it and focus on what you’ll build together. 😅

I don't know any content creators who work only 20 hours a week and are successful, in the sense of bringing in meaningful money or influence. Everything is hard.

Apple should formally rename its forcible spell correction on texts to “AutoIncorrect.” It’s worse than disappointing at this point with some much ~intelligent tech~ elsewhere. 😒

SVG icons have been "solved" myriad ways, but I find them all lacking. Inline SVGs? Bloated DOM. <img> tags? Can't change colors. Icon fonts? Blurry at certain sizes, a11y issues. CSS background-image? Still can't change colors. But, today there's actually a perfect solution...

The older you get, the more you realize you're not going to convince anyone of nearly anything, on any subject. Only if they're intentionally trying to find new options.

You should lean into what you are. That's what will give you strength, stamina, and something that others either lack completely, or are worse at, or it will cost them far more to do it. That's why it's a good strategy.

Investable startup: 1. Founder is unstoppable force of nature 2. Founder seeks disconfirming evidence, and changes 3. Serves niche inside a large and growing market 4. Customers genuinely love the product (high retention) 5. Employees genuinely love the company (high retention)

a solid way to find a co-founder is to see them accept or reject you/your ideas during a rough phase. “If you're absent during my struggle, don't expect to be present during my success" —Will Smith Or “If you can't handle me at my worst, then you don't deserve me at my best.” —Marilyn Monroe.

Well, I didn’t expect it to escalate this quickly 😉 www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

💯 There’s probably more to it. With private groups running the US Federal Government now, the trade secrets are available for sale to competition for the right price. And proprietary code? Dead with LLMs. The value is likely in distribution alone.

I think I might have involuntarily taken up this idea for my next project. am super pumped with LLMs, frankly! 🥳

i wonder if we can let the LLM do a product from idea to delivery with zero “brain coding.” like zero. (i’m stoked!) 😇

Getting the screen dimension with a simple calc? Yes, it's possible! css-tip.com/screen-dimen... We are still waiting for Firefox to join the game, and the code below will become the favorite one of many developers! (Until then, there is another method with better support)
