I've done some very difficult things in my life, but sustainably #healthyweight has always evaded me, until February when my new doc talked with me about my blood sugar, blood pressure, and risk factors. 5 months later: 330→300 lbs A1C: nearly prediabetic→normal BP: high→manageable The difference? Sustainable systems, not extreme diets. #Zone2Cardio, somewhat structured nutrition with @huel, optimized sleep with @eightsleep, next level tracking with @WHOOP. 30 down, 100 to go, 23% of the way to my goal. This time feels different.

@svpino You right. Makes me wonder, if classical programming is rules + data → answers, and ML is data + answers → rules, what’s rules + answers → data? Maybe in the space of simulation and generative models?

The attached picture is the simplest explanation of Machine Learning I've seen. In the regular world of writing code to solve problems, programmers write rules and apply them to data to produce the answers they need. Sometimes, writing those rules is really difficult. For example, imagine having to write code to solve this problem: "Identify the animal in the given picture." Machine Learning gives us a tool to solve those super-complex problems for which we don't know how to write the rules, but we have a ton of samples. The goal is to learn the rules from that data, not to write them. With Machine Learning, we process all of that data to discover patterns and try to generalize to new data. Using existing data, we can "learn" to answer future, similar questions. In other words, we start with data and the correct answers, and using that information, we learn the appropriate rules. I'm telling you: learning AI/ML is a superpower.

I shot a 45 last weekend at William Land #golf course

Our group shot a 65 last week in a scramble at @TheRidgeGC1 #golf course

.#Elio is @Pixar's best movie yet. First time taking both kids to the movies too, they did great. I cried, and I never cry in movies.

Wild that @canva and @anduriltech are so close, yet so far share.google/pNC4mcfUF12ZNb…

My favorite response so far

Our latest #startup idea is straight up Looney Tunes, but I haven't been able to kill it yet 🧐

@PierreDeWulf Congratulations 👏

📣 🐝 Today I'm incredibly proud and happy to announce the ScrapingBee has been acquired by Oxylabs' group. When we started our indie hacker journey with Kevin in 2019, the goal was to reach $10k MRR, to build a life with both freedom and a bit of comfort. It took us years before hitting so-called PMF, after experimenting with various B2C and B2B dubious ideas. In 2020 everything changed, we were lucky enough to get accepted in TinySeed, and thought we finally had something worth focusing on 200% with ScrapingBee. But it was no rocket ship, after a year we hardly reached $8k MRR, and it took us another 15 months to reach $1m ARR. The following 5 years we focused on: - doing the things that work and avoid distractions - keeping the team as small as possible Of course during the journey many mistakes were made, some frightening cease and desists were received (we're a web scraping company after all). But all in all, it was an awesome journey, and it's far from over. And 6 years later, here we are. I can finally announce that ScrapingBee has found a new home. Oxylabs' group is the most renowed web scraping company out there, and we couldn't hope of a better new home for our team and customers. I will keep taking part to the Scrapingbee's journey. So many people to thanks for this: Of course @SahinKevin couldn't have asked of a better co-founder for this adventure The whole ScrapingBee team and customers. Our seed investor @tinyseedfund . Discretion Capital, @einarvollset and Olivier Vuillod from Orrick for making the deal happened in the smoothest possible way. The whole Oxylabs' group, for your trust and warm welcoming of our small team. And finally our friends and family, I know you never really understood what the heck was a "remote-based bootstrapped web scraping API company", but in the end you can now all see that it was serious business 😘. Very exciting to what's going to come next! Here's the PR if you'd like to learn more: morningstar.com/news/accesswir…

Love the PEPC (Private Element Permission Control) proposal! 🔥 Perfect timing to also give us proper permissions for OPFS storage increases... I'm looking at you @webkit 👀 github.com/WICG/PEPC/blob… #WebDev #OPFS #Safari #WebStandards

this project is now open source (🔗 in comments) make music in the browser by waving your hands in front of your webcam created with @threejs, @Rosebud_AI, mediapipe computer vision, tone.js

@einarvollset @HagginOaks Let's play

Layer on top: AI models are eating SaaS use cases. Why pay for specialized tools when general models can handle the workflow? Plus, build vs buy is completely flipping because product companies can now build features internally faster and cheaper than paying recurring SaaS subs.

Been thinking about William Gibson's line: "The future is already here, it's just not evenly distributed." What happens when AI productivity gains hit an inflection point and become... evenly distributed? Great for individual companies, but the 2nd order macro paradoxes are wild!

So, is Local Capture a threat? No. It's validation. It's progress. But it doesn’t change the fundamental need for a cross-platform, reliable, and professional platform. The work is mysterious and important. #iPadOS26 #CreatorEconomy #Sherlocked #WWDC25

Professionals can't dictate the tech their guests use. They need a platform built for the messy reality of collaboration. What's your non-negotiable? ✅ Universal access for any guest ✅ Host controls for guest equipment ✅ Progressive uploads and backups ✅ Get files immediately

Watching @Apple announce Local Capture at #WWDC25 is the most surreal experience of my career. As someone with patents in Remote Recording, it’s profound validation for the problem we've obsessed over for years at @SquadCastfm & @descript. youtube.com/clip/UgkxUpS5D…
