Mumu.

[Rowend Duke @rowend_duke]

I will do what I do even if no one paid me for it.

I would go to work elsewhere to fulfil my responsibilities but get home and still write code.

You can reach a point where there is no separation between who you are and what you do anymore.

Software is huge part of who I am.

Any LinkedIn post that starts with "Last week, one of my friends..." or "Two years ago, a client..." , just know say na lie dem wan lie.

[Rowend Duke @rowend_duke]

How you know I'm not the one paying.

[Rowend Duke @rowend_duke]

@markessien Looking at my 7 terminal windows, I can confidently say this is not an issue for me.

[Rowend Duke @rowend_duke]

Missiles. Drones. Sanctions. Nukes. AI. Earthquakes.

And yet, someone can still just choke on a piece of bone while eating.

Moral: Focus on your own business. Stay alive.

[Rowend Duke @rowend_duke]

@markessien Educate us, sir.

[Rowend Duke @rowend_duke]

So many people using "will" in a sentence bugs me.

No one knows what the future looks like.

[Rowend Duke @rowend_duke]

Dating a female programmer must be hard.

The mood swings never end.

[Rowend Duke @rowend_duke]

@MitcheIl Yeah, I made my first $10 billion doing that too.

[Rowend Duke @rowend_duke]

Never bet against the Chinese.
Never bet against a billionaire.

Insane volume is a huge advantage.

[Rowend Duke @rowend_duke]

@markessien I think Google is trying to catch up.

[Rowend Duke @rowend_duke]

I just realised I never breath while running a database migration in production.

I breathe in. Run the migration. Then breathe out.

Some migrations take minutes.

Am I the only one?

@seunosewa You should try OpenCode,

[Rowend Duke @rowend_duke]

So Ox Alpha just found a bug in its own harness.

Omg, why can't this be forever?

[Nikhil | LaunchAF 🚀 @nikhilx22]

Be Ox alpha

- Drops on Aug 20 out of air
- 1M context window
- 10.2 Trillion tokens processed till now
- Supports video input as well- truly multimodal
- No data available for benchmarking
- costs $0 , completely free to run
- No one knows who is behind this model- a complete mystery

To the person that vibecoded

https://t.co/bo9AU0KbwS

You are a big part of the problem of this country.

[Rowend Duke @rowend_duke]

@markessien Nigeria.

Cus I only speak English.

And a lot of the other people who speak English might not like me.

[Rowend Duke @rowend_duke]

@CodeDrogo @markessien Close it and reopen it.

[Rowend Duke @rowend_duke]

@rusabuilds @kidtsang 100.

AI will rarely if ever tell you in no uncertain terms, this is wrong.

If prodded in the right direction though, it will however say, "You're right, I was wrong" and do the right thing.

But it takes experience to know what the right direction is.

[Rowend Duke @rowend_duke]

They'll hire you and I.

Vibe coding is a good thing.

B4 vibe coding, a lot of developers were doing crappy work and/or for businesses that never took off.

Except now, business owners can have AI do that for them at a much cheaper price.

Iff it succeeds, then they hire.
