Can anyone tell me why all the HR platforms are old and have irrating UIs. Why there is a no Linear or Figma version to these? 😭
Excited to be at SF this week and starting the week with a bang. Join me at SF AI Dev Tools meetup this monday evening 5 pm link in thread

Writing will be more important in the coming days, which means you need to develop clear thinking, too.
I made two AI Coding agents talk to each other - Devin for creating a PR and CodeRabbit to review them. All from Slack - on the weekend!
I agree that PR Review is an educational experience. Only when it is not used for blocking or doing silly politics (like teaching an unnecessary lesson on the history of programming) It should be fun. Coming to this question about testing in the interview - you are being tested. Surprised?
I hate it when good products suck and slowly become obsolete. I have seen this happen with Databases and Dev Tools. And, now, with AI, the SaaS apps, which were cool yesterday, are lagging behind.
I asked Claude 3.7 + GitHub MCP to do one thing. Very specifically, one thing. It did 3. I understand the line of thought, and it uses the chat context to make decisions autonomously. But that is not what I want it to do!
I used DeepResearch 100 times last month 🙈 Why a lot many don't understand how cool is DeepResearch. Discovered it first on Google Gemini.. never stopped using it after introduced on ChatGPT.
I got the wifi pass on the flight to AMS from SF (Thanks KLM) However, it only worked until I hit - npm install 😂 not a joke!
What is stopping Google from making GDrive search-centric? I one-shotted this. I would love to have a notebookLM-ish experience on drive.
Because I was not able to play, I changed the rules. Make fresh challenges. This is getting more funnier, and I am now getting new thoughts.
I just realized today that I have access to SORA along with ChatGPT Pro
The beautiful thing about LLMs that differentiates from working with humans - When I ask it something like "generate x. Here are a few examples," it delivers alpha that average or below-average workers can't. If the task is too complex, you need more examples, and it will deliver results.
Flappy Flight 🛩️ One-shotted this using Cursor. There are a lot of issues like the score not updating. Physics issues, etc. But amazed, really!
Suddenly while doing something, this window comes up on the Mac. Do you see this often? It's one of those unfortunate things apple built in the whole scheme!
Tried using Gemini 2.0 Flash over the last 4 days. - lack of clear documentation. Search on docs is more confusing. - Multiple SDKs for the same stuff - What works on AI studio, might not work for real on API. This is the company I adore. I loved for their tech throughout my teens 😕
The best engineers are obsessed with learning new things The great thing about software is there is always a new framework or trending LLM to learn If this sounds like you, don't give up on coding
The AI revolution is going to be even bigger than the industrial revolution. The pace of change is happening in months, not decades AI enables anyone to make a software business Be part of the change
No-code tools are in trouble ⚠️ Every no-code influencer is using Bolt or Lovable now Softr costs $59/month Bubble costs $32/month Do you think no-code tools can recover?
Hot take: Saying that you ace'd a AI benchmark leaderboard and then fail to get customers for your product is like Getting a Gold medal from Ivy League and not able to get any job.
Grok 3 doesn't give me the same vibe as o3 or sonnet-3.5! Grok webapp is so sleek. NextJS magic I believe.
Me and my brother: when my mom asks me to put things in the refrigerator. **stoned**
