When I first spoke out about the genocide, I was one of the few voices in tech, and it came at a cost.
I faced sabotage especially from the VC class: lies, leaks, threats, and blocked investments.
It was painful, but I never once regretted standing up for the children in Gaza.
Today, the tide in tech has shifted. The truth is undeniable.
If you’ve been holding back, now is the time to speak out and call out anyone supporting or celebrating genocide. It won’t cost you much—in fact, it will earn you respect, and more importantly a clear conscious. Plus, alienating those who will hate you for speaking is a feature, not a bug.
@amasad My respect for you and @paulg has gone through the roof since this horrible shit starting happening. You are consistently on the right side of history and it doesn’t go unnoticed as an Irishman ❤️
The percentage of child dead in the Ukrainian conflict is 0.3%.
Zero point three per cent.
The percentage of child dead in the Gaza conflict is 37.7%.
Thirty seven point seven per cent.
In a single statistic, there you have the difference between a war and a genocide.
I’m setting myself a dumb challenge:
Vibe code my way from zero (no idea, no coding skills) to a revenue-generating product in 6 weeks.
I started on Monday and I still haven’t picked an idea. Sweating!
