The apps I vibe-coded for my kids are featured in this fun article by Jasmine Sun, showing how when people can build apps for themselves, without needing to convince an engineer to do it for them, lots more apps get built!
I'm in @WSJ today writing about vibe-coding and home-cooked apps :) excited about shifting to world where software is something we each create, not just consume

The abundance movement must focus on achieving tangible results, not just long-term movement building. But how? @mbkeating puts forth a few ideas including how we can take immediate, bold action on energy security, featuring a new favorite startup @PilaEnergy.

Just threw in my $ for this guy. 🇺🇸
I’m a mechanic, marine, and sports radio host, raised in a trailer park in Mason City, Iowa. I'm fighting for a Democratic Party that people like me actually want to be a part of. I'm fighting for a country that's ruled by the people who sustain it, not the billionaire class. I'm Nathan Sage. I'm running for US Senate. And I'm going to kick Joni Ernst's ass next November.

Public goods of all kinds are under threat. A reminder that public goods are far more valuable than private goods, and without public goods, there would be no private goods. keatingmichael.substack.com/…

The @sfstandard's shaming of public school parents during drastic cuts in budget and staffing is pretty low. Our schools need all the help they can get. open.substack.com/pub/keatin…

In 2022 I raised 7 figures for a decentralized electric mobility financing protocol's future tokens. We pivoted out of crypto and @hello_tempo now offers theft protection to ebike owners.

Now it's 2025, I'm shipping software with @Replit, strategizing and creating content with @ChatGPTapp, and being blown away every month by what this means for startup creation and financing.

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine. History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for.

Wow, Vance and Trump are attacking Zelenskyy in the Oval Office

If you thought @openthegreathwy was about cars speeding between the Richmond and Sloat Blvd, you’re half right… Vote Yes on K and make @GreatHwyPark, Ocean Beach, and the Pacific Ocean YOUR backyard.

A question for bike brands: How are you helping your customers deal with bike theft? I'm looking for solutions, even partial ones, and trying to get a sense of how widely they are being used.

Do you sell locks to people who buy your bikes? Do you register their bikes with a national bike theft database? Do you incorporate GPS, electronic locks, or other anti-theft or theft recovery tech into the bikes? Do you offer your customers insurance?

Let me know in the comments or message me directly. Comments from customers of bike brands who can share what the brand has helped you with are welcome. Theft is a major reason people don't buy bikes and don't ride them as often as they could. We need to solve it.
