In one weekend I built https://t.co/yxruOoVM6M with just 5.6 SOL using @OpenAI Codex a private couples app that turns two 10-second check-ins into one thoughtful next move, with personalised date ideas, Daily Sparks, faith prompts and Google Calendar planning. #BuiltWithCodex

Ninety-nine percent of people in the world are convinced they are incapable of achieving great things, so they aim for the mediocre.

The level of competition is thus fiercest for “realistic” goals, paradoxically making them the most time- and energy-consuming.

If you are insecure, guess what? The rest of the world is, too.

Do not overestimate the competition and underestimate yourself. You are better than you think.

Unreasonable and unrealistic goals are easier to achieve for yet another reason.

Having an unusually large goal is an adrenaline infusion that provides the endurance to overcome the inevitable trials and tribulations that go along with any goal. Realistic goals, goals restricted to the average ambition level, are uninspiring and will only fuel you through the first or second problem, at which point you throw in the towel.

If the potential payoff is mediocre or average, so is your effort.

The fishing is best where the fewest go, and the collective insecurity of the world makes it easy for people to hit home runs while everyone else is aiming for base hits.

There is just less competition for bigger goals.

@Akintola_steve Delivers bangers every day. For me, as someone who is learning system design to help with my ai coding, I have found his stuff very insightful. Give him a follow.

Popular Software Architectural Patterns

Hello developers,

Choosing the right architecture can make or break the long-term success of your application.

In this thread, we will explore the most widely used architectural patterns in modern software development.

We will explain what each pattern is, how it works, and most importantly, when you should choose it.

Let us begin.

It’s incredible how I’ve been able to create apps that I previously subscribed to using Codex and Swift. I am saving so much money, my Codex subscription continues to pay for itself.

I finally understand what Machiavelli meant when he said, “Never play fair in a game where others cheat.” It doesn’t mean become evil. It means stop being naive. Stop bringing honesty to people who study manipulation, stop giving access to people who weaponize closeness, and stop expecting clean hands from people who already showed you they’ll throw dirt. Sometimes wisdom is not revenge. Sometimes wisdom is learning the rules of the room before the room uses your goodness against you.

🚨🇺🇸BREAKING: The CIA officer caught with $40 million in gold bars allegedly invented an entire fake top-secret spy program to steal the money.

As if this story couldn't get and wilder:

-David Rush allegedly built a sham "special access program," the blackest box in U.S. intelligence, so secret even top-clearance officials couldn't look inside without authorization

-The fake program posed as "continuity of government" work, the doomsday planning that keeps Washington running after a nuclear war

-He allegedly read in two colleagues as unwitting accomplices and used a made-up government contract to funnel millions, persuading a defense contractor to buy huge amounts of gold

-The FBI raid on his home seized 303 gold bars worth roughly $40 million, $2 million in cash, and 35 luxury watches

-Investigators say he lied about his college degrees, faked being a Navy pilot, and still sailed through the CIA's notoriously brutal vetting

-A judge ordered him held as a flight risk, and several CIA officials are now on leave as the probe widens

The scheme worked because of the system, not in spite of it.

The secrecy walls built to hide operations from China and Russia hid the fraud from the CIA itself.

A man with a fake résumé ran a fake doomsday program inside the most paranoid institution in America, and for years nobody noticed...

Incredible…. The 2% of people using these tools are experiencing AGI, and the other 98% belief AI is a ChatGPT 3.5 result filled with hallucinations

One month is seven months of progress right now

There is no precedent for what we are experiencing

@francoisrmeyer @anri_m_lombard @janmbuys Great work, thanks for sharing, it could help allot with some of the contextual work I am doing at the moment

[Sphiwe Mawhayi @imdastreetchamp]

Now comes the real phase. Testing.

That is where the truth shows up. Bugs, gaps, edge cases.

I am ready for it.

For the past 3 months, I have been building a platform to replace our CRM and turn it into a true sales operating system.

We are now at the point where it is being tested for adoption in the business this May.

A year ago, this would not have been possible for me.

I have a deep respect for SWE’s after going through this.

What I am most proud of is not just that it works, but that it solves something real.

Henry is not a tool. It is a system that guides behaviour across the entire sales cycle.

Claude discourse is broken.

Half my timeline worships it.
The other half trashes it.
