@GergelyOrosz You’re missing the point, this is what AI is going to do. It will kill SaaS purchases from a lot of the low needs purchasers. Because they can vibe their own solution. For medium/high it will let them tailor specific to their needs and ignore the functionality they dont need

I keep seeing how people are raving about how they built a Typeform equivalent with custom branding, unlimited responses, saving ~$1,000/year or more with AI. Let me explain why businesses actually pay for Typeform, and why you have NOT rebuilt it at all:

Most software engineers have never experienced what I’ll call “full startup speed”. Yes, it’s possible to fix 15 app bugs, fully dockerize apps, productionize dbs, get deploy scripts running (even kubernetes), add CI, SSL, and send first invites in… under 2 days.

ChatGPT has been out less than two weeks and it has more apparent use cases than the entirety of blockchain.

This is 100% not every educator and many want to support critical thinking and move the subject forward But the changes to create larger classes and more standardisation had negatively impacted education

There have been challenges to testing for a long time and evidence of testing negatively impacting students, testing ability to conform rather than understand individual ability This comes with massive challenges but is the perfect opportunity to take a positive future direction

My reaction to crowds feels strange to me I’ve been pro-musk for a long time. I’ve got a less positive view of him with everything that’s been happening recently, but the strange thing is that this is amplified so much because of my negative feelings to his wilfully blind fans

@allenholub Is it just task estimation you don’t see the point of, or estimation in general?

I'm occasionally asked about task estimation. I don't see the point, really. The teams I work with don't collect implementation details until just before implementing (in Sprint planning if you're doing Scrum). They collect only enough detail to start, not finish, the story. 1/2

At this point the most terrifying thing about Twitter is the precedents that are set if this somehow works It could undo decades of positive change in how to manage/lead

This is horrifying, and people are saying it’s an amazing launch strategy… Accounts run by adults follow children on social media, parking outside schools, and now accessing location data Doing this at scale doesn’t make it less creepy, it makes it more creepy
Luke Sophinos@lukesophinos

They targeted teenagers by creating Instagram accounts with the high school name included, such as "gas.georgiahigh". They made the account private, & then followed every student from these high schools.

@theleanicole Ideally continuous planning rather than quarterly or annual, but it takes a long time to shift a company there. Before then usually 4-6 weeks out. Often it’s not new things it’s putting all the existing information together to get buyin Occasionally a spanner is thrown in

Everything happening in the world and on Twitter recently is definitely making me feel more inclined to argue with the nonsense I see

The older I get the less appealing I find the hustle culture of growth at all costs with VC money as rocket fuel. On the flip side the more appreciative I am of companies and investors that value doing good for the world and building sustainable companies with great engineering.

It has been 10 months and I still think the iPhone keyboard is awful. I expected some pain changing from Android for the first time and thought I’d adapt after a while. But no, it’s just genuinely garbage.

@bcantrill @nickgeracehacks There are great companies producing great engineers. But it’s easy to react to pressure when you don’t have experience (startups with young leadership) Are changes in our industry leading to less time spent learning and weaker engineering across the industry?

@bcantrill @nickgeracehacks It also makes me think about the changes in our society of perception of success with social media, status symbols, wanting things more quickly. Pairing that with the unbalanced salaries in tech, how is that negatively impacting the years we should spend learning and innovating

I knew this talk was going to pack an emotional punch, but I think I underestimated what its effect would be on folks in their mid- to late-twenties -- for whom the pandemic has been challenging in a unique way. Thank you @nickgeracehacks for this beautiful and moving thread!
