Overheard in SF: I’m developing SneezyBot, an AI that says bless you depending on if it likes you and the type of sneeze it hears. We're so in an AI bubble but I love it.

Greg just described what software engineers know as secrets management. That said, he brings up a better point more to do with accessibility of the tech and making it more seamless especially for vibe coders that aren’t even familiar with the concept of a secret. @karpathy.
startup idea for you. 1Password does $318M ARR managing passwords from toronto canada . now build "1Password for API keys" with a brand that targets the MILLIONS of new vibe coders. developers are scattering credentials across codebases, config files, and environment variables

Now that everyone's coming out with their stories around Soham, I'd also like to mention that he did an interview for Infisical, and I'm glad he didn't make it through our hiring process. TLDR: The storyline wasn't adding up and nor was his submission.
PSA: there’s a guy named Soham Parekh (in India) who works at 3-4 startups at the same time. He’s been preying on YC companies and more. Beware. I fired this guy in his first week and told him to stop lying / scamming people. He hasn’t stopped a year later. No more excuses.

A big part of what makes a startup magical is the people involved in it. A hire can make or break that magic. Make the startup magical.

You’re wrong.
No one has ever 100% vibe-coded something actually useful. Prove me wrong.

The real city of dreams :).
if you're coming to sf to "have fun" you're probably in the wrong place. most young, ambitious people come here to try and make it in life.

To play devil's advocate: What if this is the correct next step for human civilization?. In a past world, hunter-gatherers were, on average, more athletic than people. They had to travel long distances, hunt for food, carry large game across those distances, craft tools, build.
BREAKING: MIT just completed the first brain scan study of ChatGPT users & the results are terrifying. Turns out, AI isn't making us more productive. It's making us cognitively bankrupt. Here's what 4 months of data revealed:. (hint: we've been measuring productivity all wrong)
