as i’m back in Australia for a little while, this account will briefly transition from a San Francisco appreciation account to Sydney propaganda account. i love Australia so much. everyone should come here. also, are there any Sydney/Australia people hiding on twitter??

my theory is that if you love California, you’ll probably love Australia too. there’s a deep pacific-rim kinship: sun, coastline, optimism, beautiful nature, casualness. spiritually, we are cousins

@majamediaco hi ziggy! he seems pure of heart, maybe that's his secret?

@BeingJonG its a shame to see such a mathematically dense/rich discipline get watered down to arming the slop bazookas :^(

@shin86_dev We just have to find harder problems!

But the number of people who would have otherwise never taught themselves to code who will now be flooding towards generic SWE roles for promises of pay and lifestyle will absolutely crater the market in due time

Tibo’s (@thsottiaux) profile became this popular this fast for a very simple reason: ChatGPT, Claude and Grok users are starving for someone inside these companies who communicates clearly, publicly and transparently about what is being built, what is broken, and what is being fixed.

Tibo became a symbol of that, and he did it with professionalism. Look at the competing companies and ask yourself: where is their Tibo? In most cases, he simply does not exist. Just executives and employees terrified of tweeting a single useful sentence about the company they work for.

@thedesignely @framer this looks so personal and comfortable!!

@antopatrex1 would the better paradigm be

deploy irl early -> use sim as a debugging tool?

that's what feels obvious but wanna double check

I urge you to reflect on this if you work in tech. Because I am having the same experience. https://t.co/96vhkvrwlo

Do we like agentic vertical node-based workflows with generative walkthroughs?

[Mario Zechner @badlogicgames]

exactly right

[mohammad haider @shin86_dev]

@justinskycak this is the most fun way anyway, nothing else scales

@localoptimiser @contrafy @gopikl @tobi hi! so nobody here said coding is solved! please don't project random discourse onto a serious conversation :)
