"If Free is part of your product, your funnel, your model ... who is your VP of Free?
There usually isn't one. And Free loses as a result. It has to be you, the Founders.
Your VP Sales? Doesn't care about Free. Needs to hit the quarter.
Your VP Product? Too many fires from your paying customres.
Your VP Marketing? They might care a bit, but mostly, their job is delivering qualified leads to sales.
Free never gets the love it needs." with @lennysan
Today, nobody is against electricity, or electrification.
But the anti-data centre backlash we are seeing today has a precedent: the anti-electricity backlash of the early 1900s.
They thought electricity would lead to horrible things.
Here's a propaganda cartoon from then:
something i've noticed: AI agents create a weird new kind of burnout. esp for young people.
a lot of ambitious 22 year olds are going to think the answer is simple:
- spin up more agents
- ship more code
- sleep less
- outwork everyone
and for a while, it will feel incredible.
you can keep multiple agents running, feed them tasks, review outputs, fix mistakes, make decisions, and keep the whole loop moving.
the problem is that the work no longer drains you through typing. it drains you through judgment.
More attention.
More context switching.
More verification.
More decisions per hour.
so instead of 8-10 normal productive hours, you might get 4-5 extremely intense hours before your brain is fully cooked. and you feel numb until you sleep properly and reset
some of my friends are already burnt out. they don't say it out loud but i can tell.
the agent can keep working 24/7.
the human still has a hard limit
this AI Agent finds stressed crops on $500k-2M/year farms, on autopilot.
here's how farmers can use it to save entire harvests:
- watches every Sentinel-2 satellite pass in real time
- spots which field zones are struggling before anyone sets foot outside
- pulls real imagery straight from ESA's satellites, no site visits required
- maps every field zone with exact actions - irrigate, fertilize, monitor
- calculates water deficit + expected yield impact
- drops a personalized PDF report in the farmer's inbox by 6am
- every step from satellite to inbox is automated.
a real system running on real satellite data for real farms.

History has been made today. At just 14 years old, Yağız Kaan Erdoğmuş crosses 2700 threshold on live ratings, becoming the youngest player in the history of chess to do so. A monumental achievement for Yağız and a proud day for Türkiye. 🇹🇷
