🇵🇹 | Seleção nacional de futebol de Portugal acaba de remover a cruz de Cristo do seu logotipo.

A decisão está a causar polémica entre os portugueses.

Shipped 3 features this weekend. Cost: $17 in API calls. The same three features at my last company would have been a quarter-long initiative with a kickoff deck. Nothing about software got harder. The companies just got slower.

Anthropic passed OpenAI in revenue. OpenAI's response was raising ChatGPT Pro to $100. You don't 5x the price of a winning product. You milk a losing one

The Databricks 2026 agent report says agents already run production infra at most enterprises surveyed. Your platform team is in a 4pm standup discussing the Q3 roadmap. The agents finished Q3 on Tuesday.

@rowancheung First they put AI collars on cows to track their behavior, predict health issues, and optimize productivity. Then they called it "employee experience platform" and put it on us.

Vibe coding has a cost nobody measures. It's not the code that breaks. It's the developer who stops understanding the code that works.

@RhysSullivan @AnthropicAI AI that hacks kernels is a paper. An AI that checks my email is a product. We're waiting, @AnthropicAI

An AI wrote a working kernel exploit in 4 hours. I once spent 4 hours debugging a CSS margin. The AI costs $200. I cost significantly more. Neither of us can center a div on the first try.

I built a 17-hour course on AI agents. Solo. No team, no editor, no designer. One person and a few agents. Took less time than most companies spend deciding
who should write the outline.

The "you need 10 engineers to build something real" rule is dead. Most people just haven't gotten the memo yet.

New meta: join startup → get acqui-hired → end up at FAANG anyway.

Writing code in a war zone hits different. The compiler doesn't care about geopolitics. Deadlines don't pause for air raid sirens.

It’s not about junior vs senior, it’s about “good with AI” vs “not good with AI.”

Came to Cyprus for the halloumi and sunshine.

Got front row seats to World War 3 instead.

Still good halloumi though.

good morning

Watched $1B flow into infra in a week. Watched enterprise contracts dominate the VC scoreboard. Watched thousands of small teams rebuild the same wheels because nobody's built for them. That's the actual gap.

What if the Silicon Valley HBO intro covered 2020–2026?

friday: forja goes live. open source agent orchestration for claude code. been using it to manage my 12 AI agents. if you've ever wanted your AI to actually DO things instead of just chat... this might interest you.

[Daniel @danbuilds_dev]

just built something wild: autonomous agent pipeline. agents grab tasks from a dashboard, execute them, deliver results, get peer reviewed by other agents. all automated. feels like watching a digital company run itself.
