I stopped teaching hands-on AI workshops because of HTTP 429s and students with no bank card for billing.

So I built a gateway: one API key per student, usage limits, routed through Vertex AI.

Now it’s Cortex, for workshops, cohorts and teams. In pilot now.

Maybe in the end, everything will make sense.

@mesuecollins @Esau_Matsiko No, but you get 14 days of free trial and the first month it's 10k then following month, 20k per month.

For years I've been building software quietly.

This time, I'm building in public.

Today I'm launching Tradezzila Storefronts.

Not because the world needs another website builder.

But because I believe millions of people have something to sell and deserve a simple way to participate in the digital economy.

The student selling sneakers.

The restaurant taking orders on WhatsApp.

The mother selling vegetables from her garden.

The creator monetizing an audience.

The small business owner trying to reach more customers.

Tradezzila Storefronts gives anyone a professional online store they can create from their phone and share instantly.

No developers.
No complicated setup.
No technical knowledge required.
Just products, customers, and opportunity.
My goal is simple:

Help 500 businesses get online by the end of this year.

Starting today.

I'll share everything publicly...

wins
failures
numbers
lessons

Let's see where this goes.

You can only successfully Lock-in when you have your basic needs covered.

Everyone building AI agents is focusing on building the prefrontal cortex. Planning. Reasoning. Multi-step chains. There's value here. CEO-stuff.

But also, a reframe: there is value in building the cerebellum. It's offloading boring tasks into reflex so the complex thought can focus.

Your mortgage gets paid by a standing order, not a committee. The things that are not fun, not interesting, but have to be done? Done. Most agent frameworks will fail because they treat all cognition as high cognition.

The winners will nail the boring stuff first.

[Yuchen Jin @Yuchenj_UW]

Can’t believe I coded by hand for 15 years.

15 years of memorizing syntax, Vim, Stack Overflow, broken builds, cursed dependencies, merge conflicts, and “one last bug before sleep.”

All of that just to end up typing “fix this” into a chat box and watching an agent do crimes.

Whoever builds an actual durable solution to doomscrolling will be a multibillionaire.

@alaphati_t nothing, i can't break the flow state 😅

[Osen Muntu @osen_muntu]

Every app feels broken now.

Nothing works fully right anymore.

Buttons glitch. Notifications arrive late. Search sucks. Sync fails randomly. Apps eat RAM like candy. Updates fix 2 bugs and introduce 6 more.

We somehow reached peak software power and peak software fragility at the same time.

Users are basically unpaid QA now.

Whatever you're doing, do it well. If you're writing a thank you note, take an extra minute to mention something beyond the typical thank you..
