Abstract structural thinking is the new leverage.

Models. Schemas. Constraints. Pipelines. That’s where the real leverage sits.

AI can generate almost anything. The advantage now is defining the structure it operates inside.

.@OpenAI / .@OpenAIDevs please make Codex in VS Code preserve the message I’m typing. If VS Code restarts or closes, the initial prompt that starts a new chat just disappears (autosave + restore draft on reopen).

When implementing code that depends on LLMs, first-principles thinking is more important than ever.

If you are building for B2B, forget aesthetics, forget clever features. It’s about getting things done. Solving real problems. That’s it.

Just removed the backend entirely. Moved the DB config to localStorage and call the database straight from the frontend. Way faster.

MVPs are half-baked products, confuse users, and make a bad first impression.

MVPs make sense when you’re guessing. But when the problem is real, partial builds just create noise. Solve the whole problem. Ship with clarity.

Working on a JSON importer that: – Visually renders deeply nested JSON – Flattens head/detail structures (like order headers + items) – Lets you select + map fields instantly – Preps messy data for clean import or joining - No code required I built this because I got tired of fighting chaos in product and order data. 📸 Screenshot below — curious what you’d add next?

Everyone's focused on shipping fast. But if you're solving complex B2B problems, speed isn't the edge—depth is. Build trust. Solve something meaningful. That's how you win deals no startup can copy.

Abstraction is the mind killer Go to ground, be specific, have the direct conversation, try it yourself, if it doesn’t work ask why, don’t assume someone else already checked on this The devil is always in the details

Solving problems and communicating clearly is the new code. Structuring that as a data model is your interface to AI.

He was the first to show me AI. Back in 2005. He knows.
The biggest revelation from Deepseek is that Open Source has won. For a 1% difference in performance, it will be difficult for OpenAI to justify its price when the competition is free and formidable. -from my interview with Bloomberg

This is misleading as it's comparing 2020 covid data with 2024 data in numbers. In percentage, the Republicans have increased their share of early voting from 35% to 44%.
Pennsylvania is on track for a major Republican victory. The gap between 2024 and 2020 is now over 600k, which almost 10% of the entire electorate!

35 years after its release, @dogplayingtris just became the first person to get the NES Tetris rebirth. He made it all the way to level 255, then the game wrapped around and restarted from level 0.

The already legendary 1500m duel between Josh Kerr and Jakob Ingebrigtsen at Paris 2024 is about to unfold. Here's what you need to know about this epic showdown and their winning strategy ⬇️

If the race is fast, Jakob's endurance and speed will likely give him the edge. However, if Kerr manages to keep the pace slower, his tactical brilliance and strong finishing kick could lead to an upset.

All in all, Jakob has the upper hand here. He ‘only’ needs to run fast, and if he runs close to his personal best, it’s hard to see how others can keep up. Josh is dependent on a race that allows him to accelerate at the end.
