Mark Szymanski

Realization of the day: I’m not actually driven by money. I want comfort and to provide for my family, but I don’t care about Ferraris or flexing. What I’m really chasing is status through trust. Being widely known, being respected, having access to other respected people I can directly exchange value and collaborate with.

HELP - my @astrodotbuild website is too fast!

@raquel__karina Took a video with different poses and then screenshotted different frames

@MarkJSzymanski How many shots did it take for you to get the perfect angle of the facepalm?

Live in 10

So @Calendly seems to have this bug right now where I literally cannot edit existing event types options on the web or the mobile app. That's pretty cool

If you're reading this, you are (likely) way more capable than you give yourself credit for. There really are levels to it. You're probably up there.

@craylor @RiversidedotFM

@MarkJSzymanski @RiversidedotFM Vouch for Mark. He is a brilliant consultant and has a lot of experience with Riverside. There is a lot their team could learn from him.

Kind of incredible how @RiversidedotFM is simultaneously one of the best platforms in its class, while also being one of the worst user experiences I've ever dealt with. If you guys need some product consulting, I am available for hire. Would love to see the experience improve.

@LumiCiobanu Thank you!

@MarkJSzymanski So great idea with this AI Community! Congrats on launching!🙌

Cool timeline: Today at 11 AM - I launched my new community, Modern Builders Society, during a live stream Today at 1:30 PM - got my first member sign up, joining the 30+ Founding Members that purchased my AI-Powered WordPress Agency course earlier this year Onward and upward 💪 markszymanski.co/community/

@MarkJSzymanski Yooo, where’s the link for info?

I've been setting up my community today, Modern Builders Society. I really enjoy working on my own stuff.

@mattmedeiros @Press__Conf @TheWPMinute You're old, we get it 🫪

@Press__Conf @TheWPMinute Did this before @MarkJSzymanski

A small walk down memory lane: @mattmedeiros , our media partner at @TheWPMinute , preparing for PressNomics eight years ago. How quickly time passes 😮‍💨 We’re grateful for the effort, the stories, and the memories that ultimately helped bring PressConf to life. 🚀 #FlashbackFriday #PressNomics #PressConference youtu.be/YuVkp422-ew?si…

It's actually incredible how many more opportunities spawn when I put more effort in.

@MarcBenzak Impressive 🙌🙌🙌

@MarkJSzymanski 21,439 for me, unless you count 2nd hand cannabis.

Random fun fact: I haven't had any alcohol, nicotine, cannabis, or any other such substance in 11,000 days.

@aaronware Indeed it is

@MarkJSzymanski Is that basically your entire life?

@MarkJSzymanski Proud of ya

@MarkJSzymanski Sooo, I’m gunna guess you’ve never tried any mind altering substances in your life? 😅

The transition of no-code "devs"/designers to vibe-coding architects is interesting to observe. There are a lot of AI hype beasts and careless cowboys out there, for sure... But there are also a TON of thoughtful, reasonable people that are now able to create incredible things without memorizing every last syntax rule. The floor has risen, and if you're an intentional builder, you should feel empowered, not worried.
