Mä muistan lapsuuden Viron. Kun käytiin jalkapallojoukkueen kanssa Mustamäen torilla ostamassa neuvostomummoilta väärennyttä länsitavaraa. Kaikkialla näytti ja haisi Neuvostoliitolta.

30 vuotta on kulunut.

Ja Viro on ohittanut Suomen.

Yksi keskeisimpiä syitä on verotuksessa. Käytössä on 24 %:n tasavero. Lisätyöstä ei rangaista Suomen tavoin ylikireillä marginaaliveroasteilla. Päinvastoin verotus kannustaa työntekoon.

Lisäksi yrityksiä verotetaan vasta kun voittoa kotiutetaan. Suomen kaltaista yhteisöveroa ei ole käytössä. Viron malli kannustaa investointeihin ja kasvuun. Se on johtanut siihen, että Virosta on tullut yksi keskeisimpiä start-up keskittymiä Euroopassa.

Viro lähti takamatkalta, mutta on ottanut Suomen kiinni.

Suomen pitää ottaa mallia Virosta.

@yo_puaaa Can't merge PR with fixes for a demo. Disaster.

[Tim Borovkov @TimBorovkov]

@samlambert Ffs GH stability is really messing up an otherwise productive day I've been having. First I realised that I can't merge, and now apparently Cursor cloud agents don't work due to Github, among other things...

[Tim Borovkov @TimBorovkov]

@realfunnyeric @OpenAI @AnthropicAI @grok Nope. Faster = more iteration = more get's done in less time. + the way cloud agents work in cursor is just beautiful

[Tim Borovkov @TimBorovkov]

Now that I have no Codex usage left for the next few days, I've gone back to @cursor_ai as the daily driver, and tbh I'm not sure if I can go back anymore.

The cloud agents with their own desktop VMs + the mobile app are just so addictive omg. Cursor Grok 4.6 high fast get's me high and FAST.

Blazing fast quality for like 70% of what I need 🙏

[Tim Borovkov @TimBorovkov]

@sattyyouneed Did you miss @SpaceXAI x @cursor_ai releases?

[Tim Borovkov @TimBorovkov]

@Taniyatweets_ If it's github, do we get a backup of our shit?

[Tim Borovkov @TimBorovkov]

@launch_llama I need something -> I build it

[Tim Borovkov @TimBorovkov]

@Taniyatweets_ Sales. The product doesn't matter if no one is willing to pay for it

[Tim Borovkov @TimBorovkov]

@zdogmode Why would it matter if it's the weekend or not? If you feel tired/unproductive on a Tuesday, just go to a park or take a nap. Every day is practically the same. No need to live by the 9-5 calendar

[Tim Borovkov @TimBorovkov]

@rauchg Original values of Disney just make me think...

[Tim Borovkov @TimBorovkov]

@ardent__dev Definitely the first customer

[Tim Borovkov @TimBorovkov]

Catastrophe.

[Tim Borovkov @TimBorovkov]

4% remaining and 4 days to go... Guess I'm fucked @OpenAI send help 🙏

What am I even supposed to spend my days on without a limits reset?

@ChShersh @sirstripy How could you even, if your whole allowance would be eaten up by a single prompt

[Tim Borovkov @TimBorovkov]

Thinking about building something that turns team voice notes, group chats, emails and other events into a searchable timeline.

Does your team struggle to keep CRMs, wikis and task boards updated too? Would this be useful?
