The intelligence revolution. GDP and meaning became diametrically opposed. We maximized GDP. The year is 2035. Post scarcity. 99.9% of humans compete in the Metaverse - how status and meaning is derived. The tech oligarchy is strong.

Every one of your reports (and their reports, recursively) should have exactly one priority. People find ways to complicate their lives and add more to their plate anyway, so your job is to bring clarity and focus.

It is human nature to celebrate and respect people who succeed in spite of their circumstances. Jealously fueled hatred of the most successful violates this, and causes us to lose touch with who we are.

"Maybe it sounds a little harsh, but a programmer who's been working professionally for five years has likely already revealed their potential. The trajectory by which they improve has already been plotted." world.hey.com/dhh/why-we-won…

This is such an obvious conclusion that almost no companies hire by. By definition hiring based on years experience breeds corporate mediocrity. All the arbitrage is in trajectory, so you need to be able to evaluate how good someone is - not how long they've been doing it.

The best feature of LLMs is the shamelessness with which we can ask the dumbest questions. Which is the prerequisite to intellectual and personal growth.

Charles Miller This is true, but true for a boring reason. People who succeed at something tend, obviously, to be good at it. And people who are good at something usually know they are. It doesn't imply that if you start thinking of yourself as superior, you'll become successful.

If nothing else, things like Cursor agent and v0 can simply code much faster than any human. Even if you're better, the advantage of something that is good, has a constant cognitive state and is 10x faster shouldn't be understated.

This is a huge deal and a huge win for the web… No fees on web transactions from  iOS apps in the USA 🇺🇸 (nor Europe 🇪🇺 via Digital Markets Act.) The Court has ruled that “linked-out purchases” defined as“purchases made off the Apple platform, but from which a consumer can

Apple was asked by the judge to give up almost nothing in the first round of this lawsuit. They refused. Now they have to give up everything. Epic win by Tim Sweeney and Mark Rein. Justice prevails in the end. Incredible day for app developers everywhere 🪩

You only mistake "do things that don't scale" with make long term commitments, spoken or not, that make running your business not sustainable with unjustified payoffs, once. Kind of an unteachable lesson. Very fine line with becoming a defacto extremely low paid software agency
