always time to ship

me and claude fable 5 the days before us government banned it

Creators don't wait for opportunities. They build them.

I can't believe how fun building a company is right now is. The weird part is it doesn't feel like work anymore. New AI models/tools/repos keep coming out making the impossible possible. My ONLY anxiety is making sure I don't waste this precious moment and keeping up with the updates of all the new tools/AI models. AI is creating the greatest platform shift of all time. And, I've learned to never let a good platform shift go to waste. I was living in Silicon Valley around for the mobile era. I remember the feeling of "you can just build an app and put it in the store and people find it." That lasted maybe 4 years before the gold rush ended and distribution got hard. I'm getting that same feeling right now but bigger. The difference is I'm older, I know what a window looks like, and I know they close. I love building right now. Maybe you do too. Trying not to take it for granted. I'm excited for Monday. Can't wait. My partners and I are up at midnight most nights now sending each other screenshots saying "look what this can do." Nobody asks anyone to do this. We just can't stop. Something drops, someone builds something with it in 2 hours, and the group chat goes off. It feels like we're getting away with something. Some of the greatest companies of the next decade will be started in 2026. I'm sure of it. And it'll be fun. I feel like a kid again. Genuinely giddy.

You know you’re COOKED when one prompt adds 21,000 lines to your codebase 💀

a lot of people larping in this AI bubble

it’s laughable how much venture capital goes into pure nonsense.

Long context windows made everyone so lazy. More context isn’t always better context. The model has a harder time finding the signal when you bury it in 200k tokens of noise. Curate what you put in. It matters more than the window size.

Every AI lab is racing to ship the flashiest new capability while the boring reliability stuff quietly rots. I don’t need another model that can do a backflip. I need the one I’m already using to stop timing out at 2pm.

a mediocre product with a real distribution engine will outlive a brilliant product nobody can find.

one good girl is worth a thousand GPUs

X is definitely randomizing their payouts.

after using codex /goal, going back to explicitly walking through every step feels stupid

more people are starting to realize that Codex is the better coding agent

there’s a 340,000-person ai talent shortage globally. nobody can hire fast enough. genuinely think going deep on agents right now is the most underrated career bet of 2026.

i am running an experiment

Anthropic’s biggest win to date was Karpathy.

every repo we open lately has an AGENTS.md, a CLAUDE.md, and a CONTRIBUTING.md

everyone on tech twitter is schizophrenic

Personal software is coming
