Holy guacamole !
Having the @Cloudflare offices in Lisbon (and they're hella dope btw, loved every second of the visit I did!) was already mind-blowing to me, but now @discord too?!?! No way!
Oh man!
@svishnevskiy@vencordapp Wait wait wait, holy shit ?!
For real?!
Two of my favourite companies, @Cloudflare and @discord in my hometown?
Holy cow! Too bad I moved to Belgium a few years back :( but these news really make me feel like I should go back... Gahhhh!
@Jilles Ah, fair, I didn't think of the TS angle.
Indeed this would've been a blessing back when I was doing coding/development by hand.
Nowadays... well... I have a swarm of agents to do these things for me 😅 ( <3 @t3dotcodes ).
@Jilles@DanielBodnar I didn't say it for you tho 😅
In any case, I've made quite a lot of videos on Davinci, and it's the GOAT 💯, but when you just want to make a quick screen record, Davinci feels like killing a fly with a bazooka, that's all.
Day 17 of 30 with @boardyai. Someone I've worked with put me in the top 10% of people he's worked with. Then he added: on my best day.
This week I've been asking people who've hired me or worked with me how they'd describe me. He called me dedicated, highly technical and hardworking. Then came the rest. I can struggle on the marketing and communication side. I sometimes overestimate what I know outside my own areas. And I'm opinionated, though I do change my view when someone makes the case.
That caveat is the most useful thing anyone has said to me this month.
Yesterday I worked out that the budget in my world sits with marketing and PR agencies, not with the people running servers. So the people I need to convince now buy marketing for a living. Marketing and communication is exactly where he said I'm weakest.
The technical depth and the operator work I can show. Telling that story to someone who sells campaigns is the part I have to get better at.
Day 16 of 30 with @boardyai. I've spent most of this month pitching people who can't say yes.
Yesterday I had a one-hour call with someone who manages communities for several projects at once. A lot of the people who call themselves community managers are really moderators spread across a few clients. They clear spam and answer the same basic questions all day, and none of them has a budget of their own. Pitching them means pitching someone who can't sign anything lol.
The money sits at the marketing and PR agencies. They sell community management as an add-on inside a bigger budget. A dedicated person on a client account bills a few thousand a month. Meanwhile the same agency is already running ad campaigns and PR retainers worth tens of thousands for that client.
So the agency owner has the budget and the client list. They also have a reason to make their community delivery cheaper or better, because they already sell it as a service.
Since week one I've been asking who in the server gets to say yes. After yesterday, I think it's often someone outside the server entirely.
The next round goes to agency owners instead of the people running servers. One per company.
Bro, you can't fucking say openly on social media you just attempted to compromise an organizations infrastructure under your employer and full legal name
Are you actually fucking insane?? Genuinely what the fuck are you thinking???
And how the fuck does this dude know the employees name? Why did the employee openly admit "hehe ye thats me, but no mallace intended, it was my AI agent"
????? WHAT. THATS STILL A CRIME. WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT.
Day 15 of 30 with @boardyai. My @discord DMs are open to anyone, and that's on purpose.
Almost every server operator blocks DMs from people they haven't friended. It's standard practice, and it keeps staff inboxes clean. It does nothing for members, and members are who the impersonators actually go after.
The pattern is always the same. An account dressed up as the project's support team DMs a member. The member believes it, and the team only finds out afterwards, when it surfaces in a public channel or as a chargeback.
So I leave mine open. The scam and impersonation accounts come to me too, and as the owner of @Sledgehamm3rBot I can identify the account and ban it across every server running the bot in one move. That way it's dead in all of them, including the servers where it was about to DM members next.
