This is why @dbongino is loved and respected by his fans/peers. Yet feared and respected by his enemies.

This is so smart and practical. If you are a business where developers can spend / collect money with you: Add APIs so (AI) bots can do the same… and enable new use cases while increasing revenue! (And leave it to devs/customers to ensure safeguarding these use cases!)

So I tried to build a tech company from Norway and here’s what happened: 1. Two years of building without almost any money/funding, better part of a year without salary 2. Raise VC and become one of Norway’s first unicorns 3. Face unrealized gains wealth tax bill of many x my annual net salary. ofc the company is loss making and all the investors have preference shares so I can’t take out any money. 4. Call out publicly that this does not make sense. Independent of level, taxation needs to happen when you actually make money. 5. I move to Switzerland because no politician cares/listens. 6. I still don’t get any tangible and sensible answers to my criticism of unrealized gains tax, BUT I do get put up on the “wall of shame” at the socialist parties offices… I’m Norwegian and I love Norway but the socialist politicians are taking the country down a dark path. It’s a real life Atlas Shrugged.

Money doesn’t buy happiness. But it buys security and safety for the people you love and as much time as required to improve your stats as a man. Gym Knowledge Network So get rich. Focus on what’s important. And I guarantee you’ll end up happy.

@DrJustinbass @joerogan Read “The Beginning of Infinity” and “The Fabric of Reality” first. If you do it right, it should take a year or two. Then we can talk about the rest of the list.

How to Get Rich (without getting lucky):

DRY principle should be rewritten to DRBR, Don't Repeat Business Rules. Or DRD, Don't Repeat Domains. Having the same builder class written 5 times in different libraries, or the same helper function that converts a DTO to a domain object is fine. But the code that adds sales tax to a POS transaction should live in one place. (That place is not in the database) 😆

really smart conversation between @mer__edith and @josephfcox about law enforcement hacking, making a non-bloated product people want to use, and new AI-associated threat models 404media.co/podcast-signal…

@ARanganathan72 Who felt that Mr. Ranganathan was so angry that if he had been sitting in the studio, he could have even slapped him? 😂😂

@eddiejaoude Enjoy the adventure

I passed my full motorbike license today 🎉 (this is an older photo, it was sunny today, but I didn't take a photo 🤦‍♂️) I know not related to tech but I am super excited, it is something I wanted to do for many years and I was super nervous
