Everyone’s missing the point when they #jailbreak their @Samsung and @LGUS televisions and find all the spyware and microphone recording software.

You don’t turn them off. You flood them with programmatically generated nonsense data so it poisons their data

WTF, $3000 Samsung TV has an always-on mic, automatic content recognition, geo tracking, network mapping, and ships your data to Samsung + 400 partners.

Bro Rooted a brand-new 2025 Samsung TV after noticing absurdly targeted ads.

Firmware was locked down, so zero-days it was. n found: always-on voice service, ACR, geo, full telemetry pipeline, and four separate DRM systems.

This isn’t a bug, It’s the product bro.

It's like @NotionHQ or @figma but for #subsurface visualizations, ipad, desktop and browser applications.

Thoughts?

i know you are not supposed to look at the code anymore

but i did

and yikes, that is some fugazi

1 MAU - wow Claude just built my entire product in an afternoon

10 MAU - I can’t believe I used to pay humans to write this

100 MAU - there are 47 open tickets about the same button, I'll get the agent to write better tests

1000 MAU - wait why are there 11 different date formatters? and none of them work????

877 MAU - they're just churning because they don't get the product vision

731 MAU - payments were down for 14 hours from a bad deploy, but luckily claude was able to debug

551 MAU - I hired my first dev to fix this mess, they took a screenshot of the src directory after 11 days, sent the message "No" on slack, and resigned

Me when that one guy still looking at the code asks why we have both a `createdAt` and `created_at` column in the `users_v2` table

Founder mode flip flops between fire everyone shut down everything and holy shit we need to double the team yesterday. There’s no in between.

this goes hard as shit tbh

Exactly🎯

Most founders become the bottleneck because they spend their days doing work that someone else could do just as well.

True leverage comes from protecting the few activities that truly require your input. Building systems and teams around everything else.

the models are good enough.

now it’s a speed and architecture deal.

Someone made a song called “Claude’s Plan” inspired by Drake’s God’s Plan.

The AI industry has PEAKED here. 😭

holy shit lmfao

I haven't seen a will tennyson youtube video in a bit, but dude looks about 20lbs heavier in the japan video than i'm used to seeing him. Nice bulk!

You can’t outwork the whole world. There’s always going to be someone somewhere willing to work as hard as you. Someone just as hungry. Or hungrier.

Assuming you can work harder and longer than someone else is giving yourself too much credit for your effort and not enough for theirs. Putting in 1,001 hours to someone else’s 1,000 isn’t going to tip the scale in your favor.

What’s worse is when management holds up certain people as having a great “work ethic” because they’re always around, always available, always working. That’s a terrible example of a work ethic and a great example of someone who’s overworked.

A great work ethic isn’t about working whenever you’re called upon. It’s about doing what you say you’re going to do, putting in a fair day’s work, respecting the work, respecting the customer, respecting coworkers, not wasting time, not creating unnecessary work for other people, and not being a bottleneck. Work ethic is about being a fundamentally good person that others can count on and enjoy working with.

So how do people get ahead if it’s not about outworking everyone else?

People make it because they’re talented, they’re lucky, they’re in the right place at the right time, they know how to work with other people, they know how to sell an idea, they know what moves people, they can tell a story, they know which details matter and which don’t, they can see the big and small pictures in every situation, and they know how to do something with an opportunity. And for so many other reasons.

So get the outwork myth out of your head. Stop equating work ethic with excessive work hours. Neither is going to get you ahead or help you find calm.

2019 was technological masturbation. you cared more about state management libraries than the value the app they were being used for was providing. leaning into product and outcomes is infinitely more fulfilling than that bikeshedding bullshit.

I just release UNITFORGE:
Most units libs assume meters and pounds. UNITFORGE assumes you may actually need parsecs, yobibytes, or whatever else your domain actually needs. Three simple primitives, BYO kit, tree-shakeable to 278 B. TypeScript-native.

There’s no shortage of new product ideas, but there’s a large shortage of people who understand systems enough that they can prevent AI from writing them into a corner.

HTI-4 just made RTPB + ePA mandatory—and @DrFirst says the impact on EHR workflows will be huge.

From real-time drug cost checks to FHIR-based prior auth, vendors need to start building now.
