Machine Learning Engineer and Manager at @FactoredAI




the guy who built the AI behind Tesla's self-driving cars hasn't written a single line of code since December went from writing 80% of his own code to 0%. spends 16 hours a day directing AI agents instead. says he's in "perpetual AI psychosis" because the possibilities feel infinite. Garry Tan says the same thing. calls it "cyber psychosis." vibe coding is genuinely an addiction.

The most successful people I know all have this in common: • Dream of a business at 21. • Launch and fail at 23. • Go back to a job at 24. • Try again at 26. • Fail again at 28. • Lose money and confidence. • Learn everything that failure taught you. • Build something real at 31. And change your family's future forever at 36. With your best years still ahead. Entrepreneurship is not a race. It is a test of patience. Keep going.

#ElGranReto2026 | “Yo no hago acuerdos sobre la base de volverme lo que no soy (…) yo no creo en la política que convierte a la gente en lo que está de moda”, dijo la candidata Paloma Valencia sobre las líneas rojas de Juan Daniel Oviedo para ser su fórmula vicepresidencial.

Manager: “I’ve noticed you’re quiet in meetings.” Employee: “I’m just focused on execution.” Manager: “You need to speak up more to get noticed.” In too many workplaces, visibility beats value. Introverts and deep thinkers get overshadowed by louder personalities. But being outspoken doesn’t always mean being effective. The best leaders recognize impact, not just volume. If your promotion depends on performance plus politics, your culture has already failed. Thoughts?


@dave_reis @GergelyOrosz Not hiring a backend engineer is entirely ok Hiring pure backend engineer and expecting them to do non backend stuff IMO is wrong even in startups. Startups doesn't mean a pure backend engineer should be made to work on things he has no clue about/not interested in.

Any time I talk about a wealthy person's outfit, someone in the comments is quick to reply: "They're rich, you think they care?" No one has to care about my opinions or clothes, regardless of net worth. But let's talk about the connection between wealth and aesthetics 🧵

My apologies.




I still don't get why MCP exists and what it does differently than having an API. Yes, it's built "for AI specifically" but AI is already capable of using APIs. And we have tons of good protocols/frameworks already. Srsly, I can't be the only one here thinking this?
