On Christmas Eve 2019, Michael Seibel, then CEO of YC, called me: “You might not be cut out to be a founder.” He was right. We had pivoted 20 times. I thought I could always return to my 7-figure quant job. That night, I realized: you commit or you quit. Fast forward: Motion raised $60M at $550M. Michael is now a personal investor.

Weekend #OSS project: SKPromptGenerator (github.com/CharlieDigital…) is a #dotnet C# source generator that generates strongly-typed classes from your prompt strings and makes it easy to interact with an #LLM without copying and pasting the boilerplate when using Semantic Kernel.

@j_neumatic @martacrf_ #dotnet's easy-to-consume multi-threaded runtime makes it even easier to build these types of concurrent+parallel processing streams. #csharp channels are highly underrated and underutilized for how easy they make concurrent+parallel workloads.

I've been working on Zeeq.ai - an #AI agent that monitors @US_FDA ClinicalTrials.gov for the latest trials and generates a personalized newsletter for every update that matches your criteria. Perfect for #patients, researchers, industry analysts, and execs!

@chrlschn .net 8 with SSR and blazor components is excellent. You can have SSR landing pages, with full saas app with db etc in a single project and its so smooth to work with. Favorite stack now for every mvp. I don't know how anyone works in JS land without going completely mad 🤣

🔥Hot take🔥: a lot of teams are sleeping on #dotnet and #csharp. It offers a balance of platform maturity, performance, and productivity that feels unmatched for backend work. Entity Framework Core deserves a special shoutout for being so productive and performant for DB work!

@gyopiazza @chrisfitkin 2/ What this means is that you can end up with the "best worst candidate" -- the best candidates may not want to jump through hoops or may have other opportunities. It is in every team's interest to figure out how to qualify a candidate in as few sessions as possible.

@gyopiazza @chrisfitkin 1/ Take homes are double edged sword because you always need to not only review the submission but then also schedule a live followup session to test that the candidate didn't cheat. You can easily lose a good candidate between those two sessions.

Cassidy Williams' blog post "Kind of annoyed at #React" really emphasizes the difference with the @vuejs ecosystem. I've written before that "React is the new IBM" (@chrlschn/react-is-the-new-ibm-6af2f4b04e5e" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@chrlschn/reac…). What's clear is that Vue remains a community driven project. blog.cassidoo.co/post/annoyed-a…

Hot take on #reactjs and JSX: "everything-is-JS" is actually terrible which is why JSX ends up simulating and SGML-like structure because it is fundamentally easier to reason about UI and composition with structured markup than it is with JS. #Vuejs SFC gets it right #webdev
