This 16-year old student built a browser... in C++... writing hundreds of thousands of lines of code... This would be hard enough work today, but this was in 2003 (!!) He's had a very successful career since, and he works on browsers today, as well. You probably use his work:

I just met a person who can't tell Python from C++. He has never written a single line of code in his life, yet he feels he can build anything he wants. He told me point-blank: "I challenge you to tell me something I can't build using AI." I tried to explain, but I couldn't

As someone who spent a few years in payments: 1. Stripe takes this much for small businesses. For large companies it’s less! It’s why eg Amazon uses Stripe vs building their own credit card processing! 2. Building *just* credit card processing is very expensive (cont’d)

Stripe takes 2.9% + 30¢ per transaction Stripe Connect takes 0.5% more PayPal is even worse.. How is nobody building a better solution for SaaS companies? Someone's gonna disrupt this and make a fortune 👀

Jak sekta. Tak można chyba najlepiej określić ludzi, którzy mimo tego że wiedzą iż ich kandydat: - to przyjaciel gangsterów - kolega skazanych sutenerów przymuszających do prostytucji - oszust - złodziej - porzucił człowieka, którym miał się opiekować - zostawił podopiecznego

@AndrzejDuda Szczerze to myślałem, że nikt już Ciebie nie przebije - ale potem Prezes wystawił gościa bujającego się z neonaziolami i sutenerami, który bez skrupułów okroił schorowanego emeryta na mieszkanie, którego poparłeś. Nigdy więcej degeneratów waszego pokroju w roli głowy Państwa.

Us developers have learned the hard way that: 1. Prototyping is more like 10% of the actual work - even though the business folks thinks we're 90% done 2. Shipping prototypes to production is possible but generally a bad idea Vibe coding is prototyping. Others will learn -

This is possibly the most Dutch story: A Dutch developer lived her whole life on a boat on canals and builds a game... about a boat on canals! Just amazing. Getting the game on Steam - it looks quaint and relaxing.

Starlinks for Ukraine are paid for by the Polish Digitization Ministry at the cost of about $50 million per year. The ethics of threatening the victim of aggression apart, if SpaceX proves to be an unreliable provider we will be forced to look for other suppliers.

@AdamLowisz I literally challenged Putin to one on one physical combat over Ukraine and my Starlink system is the backbone of the Ukrainian army. Their entire front line would collapse if I turned it off. What I am sickened by is years of slaughter in a stalemate that Ukraine will
