I find the analogy between programmers/AI and farmers/tractors exactly on point. Those that refuses to move to the more efficient - easier to work with - new tools available, and those that are excited and ahead. Yeah... Guess which sector has the highest suicide rate ?...

What the fuck is going on with captcha systems ? Know that AI is taking over, it feels more and more like anti-human security checks. 5 tests checks later, the verification failed, obviously ...

Cyril and I sat together during our last offsite and set a simple goal: reach $100k MRR in 2026 with Fernand, just the two of us. Zero hiring, like the good old days when we got started in his parents basement. It sounds crazy ambitious, but the way we work makes me think it could be realistic.

I have these two comments in the db table, and had to increase the size because of Lemon Squeezy. Today, we had to increase these once more because of LS, that provide a 1033 chars long access token. At this rate, we'll soon have to change the type to LONGTEXT ... 🤦‍♂️

Y aurait-il quelqu'un avec un abonnement "Les Echos" qui aurait la gentillesse de me partager un article payant ? N'hésitez pas à me contacter en réponse ou par dm, merci :)

The kind of bug I hate the most!! Selecting the first option set the value to "null" (expected behavior) Remove the empty comment, and selecting the first option set the value to "Browser detection". ...wtf ?

J'adore. Sur le site des impôts, le paiment des divers taxes se fait en un clic. Mais quand il faut faire une demande de remboursement (TVA), d'un coup, le service devient amnésique ...

Today we're launching our biggest AI update yet: → Custom AI training → Optional AI chat agent → Smarter replies, everywhere you work You can train Fernand with up to 10Mb of your own content: Scraped website, docs, saved replies, PDFs, past conversations.

I spent this whole week implementing an AI chat system for @getfernand.com. The first iteration used the chat completion, but would not provide any answers if the data wasn't present on the vector store (rag).
