AI took my job.

Yesterday I was part of the 40% laid off at Block.

This is Day 0. 🧵

@jacobtechtavern I wonder how useful a harness with stuff like this built in by design would be…

@JackmoveJohnny I wish I was driven enough to make a game streaming platform for these types of games only. Take Netflix to a whole new level.

@omgsidewalks Do it even when you don’t want to.

That’s it.

That’s the secret.

[Jovanny @JovKit]

@rudrank Hell yeah!

@TheErikDahl Not really, no. 🤔

[Jovanny @JovKit]

Being deep into learning how to create Agentic AI systems has been fun, but man I miss iOS.

Going to try to find that bridge soon.

[Jovanny @JovKit]

@rudrank Why’s it no longer enough?

[Jovanny @JovKit]

@CarlosBBuild 2015-2016. Started with Obj-c then switched to Swift.

[Jovanny @JovKit]

@azamsharp Of course. Started my career using UIKit.

But now with AI assistance, it’d probably be fantastic.

Hm. Might need to give that a shot.

[Jovanny @JovKit]

@rudrank What do you mean not as addictive? What did you expect it to be like? 🤔

[Jovanny @JovKit]

@GoodGameKofi Thank you for your service 🫡

[Jovanny @JovKit]

@CarlosBBuild I’ll let you know how it’s going 12 months from now. 🥴

[Jovanny @JovKit]

@rudrank Loves throwing those little jabs.

[Jovanny @JovKit]

@TheAhmadOsman So close to buying a ps5 pro and just use my 4090 exclusively for local LLMs

[Jovanny @JovKit]

Who has some awesome "here's how to build a harness" resources?

I'm feeling productive this weekend.

[Jovanny @JovKit]

My 8 year old daughter played softball for the first time this year.

We were told her $60-70 bat was trash.

Other girls on her team had bats that cost $400-500.

For a fucking bat.

And they all just acted like it was necessary.

I was baffled. Still am.

Sandlot it ain't.
Youth sports now $40 B industry:

"Teenagers on travel teams are rolling into weekend tournaments wearing a few thousand dollars of apparel, equipment & swag. Avg family spending on baseball increased nearly 70% between 2019 and 2024."
