Rookie founder mistake: listening to everyone. The first 20 people I told about Fiverr said it was a stupid idea. Imagine if I had listened. Trust your gut, Not the crowd.

What did I do when a developer pushed a bug to production that cost us $200,000 in 30 minutes? Nothing. My team knows: no one gets fired for making a real, honest mistake. Mistakes are tuition. They're how people and companies get better. Over the years I’ve developed a.

It’s Micha here again with a dose of harsh reality. Had the chance to sit down with @HarryStebbings and go all-in on the tough truths. I didn’t hold back, and Harry didn’t either. Grateful for the sharp questions and a great conversation.

These two kids in the photo had no idea what the next decades would bring. They just knew they loved each other. Still true. Even more so today. Happy 30th anniversary, my Iris.

So yes, I’d still learn to code today. BUT, and that’s a big but, would I spend four years on a CS degree? No chance. I’d lock myself in a room for six months with YouTube, Perplexity, and a goal, and come out a developer. You don’t need a diploma. You need hunger. And a good.

Code is like language. Just like there are 100 ways to express a thought, there are 100 ways to write a solution. That’s not going away, it’s getting deeper. The role of the engineer is moving up the stack. It’s becoming more creative, more high-level, more product-driven.

There’s no doubt in my mind that engineers will still be in demand. Will the role look the same? Not even close. AI is already replacing the parts of coding people liked the least: copying libraries from GitHub, parsing documentation, Googling for hours, stitching together.

🧵 Should you still learn to code?.Absolutely. But there’s a big BUT at the end.

Propaganda i'm not falling for:.AI is the end of creativity .AI will replace everyone.Automation kills humanity.AI is something to fear.AI can’t understand my niche .Freelancers can’t benefit from AI.If you use AI, you’re not a real pro.

This article is my Roman Empire. ״Invisible Asymptotes״ by Eugene Wei offers one of the clearest frameworks I’ve seen for understanding how products grow, stall, and break through. I highly recommend reading it. then reading it again. Link below.

This is the most extraordinary time in history to be human. Yes, AI is doing things for us: fixing, accelerating, optimizing. And yes, some people are afraid, they worry we’re losing touch with the skills we once relied on. But why is that a bad thing?. The way I see it, we’ve.

Here’s what people afraid of AI hurting their business don’t understand: when everyone has access to AI, it’s as if no one does. If everyone is using the same technology, there’s no competitive edge in just using it. The playing field resets, and what makes the difference is.

Following my recent email, I had an open conversation with the team about where we’re headed with AI. AI isn’t a trend, it’s a tectonic shift that’s rewriting the rules for all of us. We’re entering a time of extraordinary change: Traditional search (SEO) is fading, GPT-native

The idea of becoming hackers should excite everyone. It is an incredible opportunity to reconnect with your humanity - what makes you unique and valuable, and cast aside the part where you are just acting like a technician. 4/4 🧵.

Hackers aren’t defined by code. They’re defined by mindset. They refuse to waste time on things that can be delegated to machines,.So they can focus on thinking, creating, and building the things machines can’t. 3/4 🧵.

Not the kind who break into systems, the kind who break the rules of inefficiency. Creative. Resourceful. Always automating the boring stuff to focus on what matters. 2/4 🧵.
