If you ever need a bit of motivation, check out the Wayback Machine snapshots of companies you admire. A few of my favs:
I remember when all the lads had were a load of servo motors in a glass tank off of Stephens Green in Dublin.
@Willob would give me lifts home and talk about how they wanted to one day do this kind of stuff. Just so inspiring seeing how far they’ve come.
The ocean awaits 🐬📈
Every once in a while, you ask yourself what series of decisions you’ve made that led to this moment…
How did I end up sitting in a conference room in Manila watching the president of the call center operators association enter the room in a life size replica of a 737 🤔

The Butlerian Jihad begins....
Bernie Sanders and Greg Casar today announced the Ban Artificial Superintelligence Act. All AI development in the United States will be paused. Systems that have capabilities that match or exceed human cognitive performance will be banned. Violators will face 20 years in prison.

Had a bit of fun with our Series A announcement video, hopefully starting a trend. @patrickc Stripe S-1 as Gaeilge?
You know you're cooking when a new feature idea brings you down a rabbit hole that ends in MIT open courseware videos 👨🍳

I believe I'm being punished for a serious transgression. @ChatGPTapp I am sorry, I have learned my lesson.

new milestone at Solidroad; now getting rebase errors on PRs because we've got a full team who are shipping fast ⛴️ weird feeling when ~18 months ago it was just me force pushing on main

fav part of coding with Cursor is when I ask it to give me a tech plan and at the end it has this 4 week long implementation plan, then I say...do it now and it does it all in one shot 😂

No amount of Enterprise Ireland funding could produce this level of Irish cultural propaganda 🤝
One of the best parts of Stripe is working with the world's most interesting businesses. Taking advantage of this, we're launching a podcast where we host founders and leaders for a cheeky pint in our hastily-constructed office pub. Coming soon: episodes with @gdb, Meta’s Susan Li, @kvogt, and @levelsio.
Let me know if you have suggested interviewees. We'll likely include a bunch of interviews with people you've never heard of but whose business stories are fascinating.
💰 $20k Referral bonus for SF-based Engineers 💰
I'm just back in our San Francisco HQ after a conference where we met loads of existing (and hopefully soon-to-be) customers.
I can't exaggerate how excited I am about the next few months at Solidroad.
1/n
The scariest (and best) version of Solidroad is one where the team is sitting together, shipping quickly.
That’s where you come in.
If you introduce us to an engineer who lives in SF (or is open to relocating) and we hire them — I’ll write you a cheque for $20k

So not necessarily what we were supposed to be talking about (I may need media training 😅) but I back the take

AI has once again blown my mind - the updated @cursor_ai agent has increased my productivity by an order of magnitude.
A load of schlep tasks that I usually wouldn't bother to do are now trivial - and I'm able to do way more cool important stuff. Wooohooo 🥳
