@MichaelGuimarin I remember setting up a CS server in my grade 12 computer engineering class.

Good times had by all.

@om_patel5 Back in the 1990s and 2000s we called it Rapid Application Development.

It's awesome to see people who would have never written code or make something for their computers have the power to now.

AI is about to body the entire SaaS market.

Most SaaS products force you to work through a problem their way - the "right" way.

Every company is different.

With AI, you can whip up your own sovereign internal SaaS apps.

Custom to your workflow. Data stored on-prem.

If I were a PE firm holding a bag of SaaS companies, I'd be selling that bag right now.

@TheMingjie That's what I did

Even better when your client is UW

Andromeda’s officially working out of Velocity as a registered startup

Me and @SaarthRajan chill in one of the uni labs all the time

Burning the midnight oil on our Macs day in day out

An office is a nice change of pace

I'm so lucky to get to be here

@FounderEric Been that way for 16 years

Too many "accelerators" accelerating taxpayer dollars into the wrong pockets

@stephen_taylor Trying to do my part

@KrishivThakuria Worth it

@internetvin Intense pressure on everyone right now.

3D printers allow you to will things into existence.

@lovelacecoding This is how software works.

.NET itself is so huge it's almost impossible to use it all.

I lived through using .NET 3.5 and pretty much never touched WCF and Workflow Foundation, and there were entire consultancies built around those.

Good morning

@GeoffRuss3 It's looks like they got Temu to make them.
