Lovable finally bought https://t.co/noTkN7ePgu.
But why haven’t they rebuilt https://t.co/0XOh1D2C2a with Lovable yet?

@TTrimoreau Money. It’s the one that can unlock the rest.

Elon Musk was asked what he looks for when hiring someone at SpaceX.

His answer disqualifies 90% of the resumes that land on his desk before he reads past the first line.

"I don't care where you went to school. I care what you've built."

The room expected the standard answer. Passion. Culture fit. Growth mindset. The words every HR department uses to describe what they're looking for while actually filtering by school name and years of experience.

He explained that degrees measure compliance, not capability. A degree proves you can follow instructions for 4 years. It does not prove you can solve a problem nobody has solved before. SpaceX needs the second person, not the first. The challenges at SpaceX have no textbook answers because the textbooks were written about the old way of doing things and SpaceX exists to replace the old way.

He said the best engineer he ever hired at SpaceX didn't have a degree. The man had built things. Physical things. Systems that worked. He could show what he created and explain the decisions he made. The portfolio was the resume. The creation was the credential.

He said MIT and Stanford are useful signals when you have no other information. But the moment a candidate shows you something they built, the degree becomes irrelevant. The thing they built tells you more in 5 minutes than the degree tells you in 4 years.

Most companies use credentials as a filter because evaluating actual ability is harder. It requires the evaluator to understand the work. A hiring manager who can't assess engineering quality defaults to school names because school names are easy to rank. SpaceX hires people who build things because SpaceX is run by someone who can evaluate what they built. The filter matches the evaluator.

Build in the now.
Thank yourself in the future.

A small marketing lesson I learned:

Don’t tell people what your product does.

Tell them what changes for them after they use it.

Features explain.
Outcomes sell.

Developers, I’m genuinely curious:

Now that AI is part of our everyday work…

what are you even being asked in interviews?

[Devspace @_devspace]

The AI coding war might not be about the best model anymore.

It might be about which model becomes the default way developers work.

@TTrimoreau being remembered 💯

I need your help

When you have a new idea, do you buy the domain first or build the idea first?

Something I wish I knew before building products:

Your first users aren’t there to validate your idea.

They’re there to destroy your assumptions.

And that’s exactly what you want.

@elonmusk Us keeping up with the Kardashevs

@DanielSmidstrup I’m on day 1 - 23 followers in my first 24 hours. Am I off to a decent start? 👀

[Devspace @_devspace]

@enodrift At what point do views actually become useful if they don’t turn into users?

[Devspace @_devspace]

23 followers in my first 24 hours.
Is that a good start? 👀

~33 views per post

@HeroDividend The “get rich” part is taking longer than expected

[Devspace @_devspace]

Leaving this here as proof of where I started. See you in a year. 🫡

[Devspace @_devspace]

I’m 25.
No house.
No car.
No business.
Just a regular job and a laptop.

I don’t have much to show for it yet.

So instead of waiting for my life to change,
I’m going to build something that changes it.

I’m betting on myself for the next 365 days.

25 projects before I turn 26.

I’m documenting all of it.

Let’s see where this goes.
