I really think we're entering the golden age of software and computer science.
Sooo much software is going to be written going forward. And that's going to introduce a host of new challenges. And it really feels like the way to deal with those is not frameworks and platforms, but computer science fundamentals.
The challenges are already very apparent. For example, managing the syntax semantic gap, enforcing security at the language systems level (is it finally time for trusted computing?), full system level error handling and recovery, evolving architecture based on runtime learnings, higher level formalization of intent, rethinking state management and guarantees etc. etc.
The needed innovation is across the entire stack. From silicon to software engineering practices. We're already seeing the disruption everywhere chips, networking, operating systems, languages, language runtimes, distributed systems, platform support, security etc. etc. etc.
What a time.
A truism of CS is that you need to understand at least one level of abstraction below where you operate.
- OS devs -> hardware
- systems devs-> OS
- app devs-> systems
Vibe coding is no exception.
today we're vibe shifting https://t.co/DPX3afdw7W 2.0
i've spent >17% of my life working on @tryamie.
and after a tough year of almost starting over: i feel proud again of what we've build.
today every lil bit of support means the world to us.
as a lil `thank you` we've reset all trials :)
@jonas The main thing I haven't done is try and configure the content of the site via an API, because the whole point of the CMS was to hand that to an marketing team.
Webflow looks to have a designer API which you could check out. Not sure what the WordPress equivalent is.
@jonas So yeah in summary you've got three flavours of choices
1. Static site generator a la Hugo / Gatsby /Whatever.
2. Headless CMS a la Sanity / Prismic
3. Hosted and hosted WYSIWYG editor a la Webflow / Wordpress
Id go with 3 and see where it takes you.
What is "founder mode"? 🤔
Leaders must stay connected to the details of their product, have an incredibly high bar for quality, manage for output, and delegate only to the extent that people have earned your trust.

This week, we'll draw the July 31st cohort's scholarship place.
The plan is to do this on Thursday, so you and your friends have until then to get yourself on the list, and be in the running for a free place in our cohort.

@mipsytipsy@nested@helm_school The other one is leaving a ladder to make the climb easier for underrepresented folks. Putting about 20% of Helm's revenue towards that atm.
Happy to chat about any of this if you want to!
@mipsytipsy@nested@helm_school And people only learn by applying the lessons themselves, in real life contexts and challenges.
Honestly it's taken me two years of running these courses to perfect parts of it and I'm still refining things.
Anyway, a topic close to my heart!
