@mohbii @zivdotcat this, 100%.

[Andy Wild @thewildandy]

@ClementsCopy @Phy041 @levelsio For real. That domain is excellent.

[Andy Wild @thewildandy]

@itsnex1s @notch 100%, surprised he missed the point on this but I feel like most who hold this opinion just haven’t seen it leveraged correctly yet

[Andy Wild @thewildandy]

@NickADobos Based. Still tonnes of engineering and taste involved, in fact the division of labour tips in that direction, but actually tapping the keys to write the code is dead. Inefficient use of time upward of 90% of the time now.

@LLMJunky Honestly it’s better learned this way than through a genuinely malicious actor

[Andy Wild @thewildandy]

@aakashgupta But what’s the new name gonna be 👀

[Andy Wild @thewildandy]

@usr_bin_roygbiv @thdxr Underrated take honestly and personally I much prefer it this way.

[Andy Wild @thewildandy]

@MC_chibill @chrisgpt lol

[Andy Wild @thewildandy]

@levelsio Is this what prompted you to start the IRC channel?

And it's only Tuesday 😅

Twitter tech drama recap:

1) Dudes got into YC and everyone got so jealous to say forking open source is illegal.

2) An indie hacker started a war after not being feature by Product Hunt. I made an acquisition/partner offer to PH. If rejected, I’ll launch my own.

3) DHH said vercel is just a wrapper on top of aws with 500% markup. He is wrong.

4) Wordpress and WP engine had a family fight but now seem like back together again. It turns out wp run 40% of the web.

5) Sam Altman keeps replacing his cofounders with AI one every few months to end up being one-man billion dollar company just as he predicted.

6) PH CTO doesn’t know who is Pieter Levels, so their meme lord resigns. Buut, it turns to be a great marketing trick to promote his meme saas. Genius.

7) Notion steals nose pics of Kepano(obsidian founder).

8) Elon and his mom spent a week convincing people on X that he isn’t dating Italian PM. Hmm.

9) MKBHD launched an ugly wallpaper app, sparking the meme “the one guy go lectures everyone on a thing but scores F at it”.

10) an employee of gumroad joins buildinpublic with a side project but his employer quickly finds out and asks wtf.

11) Vercel CEO accuses Dax to being sponsored by CF, Dax responds “mf ur really laying out sponsor accusations right now”

Today I learned that identity theft is not a crime. @virginmedia I would very much like to speak to a human being pls, you are being defrauded and it is impossible to contact you about it.

[Andy Wild @thewildandy]

Some of y’all have never seen “unexpected T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM” and it shows

[Andy Wild @thewildandy]

@t3dotgg Hearing “squeal” in primes voice whenever I read it

[Andy Wild @thewildandy]

@evanyou Takes me back to finally discovering the reason prod broke was a botched file rename where a single file had a single lowercase letter which should have been uppercase. Dev was done on a case insensitive filesystem. That was a fun 6 hours to run down.

[Andy Wild @thewildandy]

@evanyou @devZeda Mad how much time is lost to language “features”

[Andy Wild @thewildandy]

@localhost_5173 Weird way to find out this project exists but looks really cool. Seems very reasonable to expect to pay for some of these features, tho the plans themselves feel weird to me

[Andy Wild @thewildandy]

@ThePrimeagen but PHP = Lambo money

[Andy Wild @thewildandy]

the worst part is he's a "huge fan of James Hoffman (@jimseven)", so he definitely knows better but just actively chose violence

[Andy Wild @thewildandy]

just found out one of my devs uses a Sage coffee machine solely to steam milk for instant coffee and suddenly his code decisions make a lot more sense
