game on 😏

When it comes to hiring, it’s easier to tame a reckless hustler than it is to instill that dawg in someone

when all things go south, i still have spam numbers on my side 💪💪

joined an interview on zoom this week and forgot my pfp was this 😭 (haven't used zoom in years)

luckily got passed to coding round

i try not being discouraged about not working for ~3 months, as someone who hasn't had more than a month off since i was 16 y/o.

but i keep going because i know what value i bring & that the right situation will come as long as i don't give up.

Looking for my next full-stack role -> lucas.website

Experience working with multiple Web3 companies, Apple, Amazon, and doing agency work.

I've shipped and scaled production apps from first prototypes to thousands of users across various stacks.

Have experience using the latest AI tools and setting up AI workflows and pipelines.

Bonus: I can still manually read/write code

can't say i've seen this job title before

got happy today seeing a 2 for 1 deal on diet coke at the grocery store

a not so subtle reminder that i’m in unc territory

i made this small macOS app to see context per project

it shows
- instruction files
- skills and plugins in load order
- duplicate or conflicting rules
- suggestions for improvements using local models

built with swift. i recommend doing something similar 🫡

rip to my usage, but w to some cool research

learning inference engineering and holy shit they were right

Some news: I’m no longer at Aztec following the recent restructuring

I’m on the hunt for a new role in DevRel or technical sales, so if you’re hiring, reach out!

In the meantime, I will be getting back to making videos again after a much needed rest 🩷

codex removed the "buy an instant reset" button from my account 🎻🎻🎻

i'm afraid this is a recession indicator

@sama please add back

got access to jev and built a little detective escape room 🕵️‍♂️

your passport is missing. three passengers are lying. you connect the clues in your own words, and jev checks whether your argument holds up.

to get a job as a software engineer in 2026, you must:
- meet the hiring manager/recruiter
- do leetcode even though the interviewer hasn’t written code in a year
- complete a take home that’s just “build our startup”
- have 4 yrs of experience in a tool that launched 6 months ago
- prove you didn’t vibe code it
- also prove you can vibe code it
- sacrifice your first born child
- wait 6 weeks
- get rejected

submitting for a solana hackathon for the first time in ~3 years

inspired by pixel-agent, i built a pixel agent factory 🏭

you hire pixel coworkers with distinct roles and skills, give them scoped tasks, and see what the office is waiting on.

the factory lets you:
- run multiple tasks in parallel, with capacity and queueing visible
- hire cific skills
- assign work to local or remote execution environments
- review plans and decisions before work starts
- track task ownership, saved session history, and employee requests
- get notified when an employee needs a decision, verification, or your input
- use existing Claude or Codex accounts
- keep the actual coding-agent terminal separate from the game-like office UI
- pet and feed the office cat 😼

the goal is to make running coding agents feel more like managing a small studio than juggling tabs.

Happy Wednesday everybody!

Over the last couple weeks I worked on myself to push the limits of my learning and I created this open source project out of curiosity.

I hope you have a blast reading it. Thank you 😁 x.com/i/article/2099…

wanted my AI to see more than just the happy path when building apps, so i made a MCP/dashboard tool that lets it look at multiple UI states and make changes from there

also been messing with an AI storyboard workflow for my project demos, and this is where it’s at so far 🤓
