Today I’m very excited to announce a global partnership between 8090 and EY.
EY will adopt 8090’s Software Factory and use it to help their customers break free from slow, costly and failure-prone legacy enterprise software using our AI-native software factory that reimagines the software development lifecycle.
EY is a massive global organization with more than 400,000 employees and tens of thousands of customers in every sector of the global economy.
8090’s Software Factory is the new way organizations can move to a focus on building software that is powerfully bespoke, hi quality, easy to maintain, easy to migrate and always consistent and up to date. No drift, no cruft, no waste.
Companies that build with Software Factory grow faster, are more profitable and are more adaptable in moments of change like we are witnessing today.
Let’s rewrite all the enterprise software in the world. EY and 8090 will work together to do its part.

The Doorman Fallacy
'You have a five-star hotel and it has a doorman, welcoming incoming guests.
McKinsey or Accenture will come in and say, “Your doorman currently costs you X thousand dollars a year. We have defined his or her function as opening the door. We’ll replace said doorman with an automatic door-opening mechanism and an infrared human detector and we’ll save you $30–$40,000 a year.”
They walk away, and they take the credit for the cost savings. Two years later, the hotel’s a catastrophe ... because the doorman was doing multiple things, many of which were human and kind of tacit.
Security would be one; there are no vagrants asleep in the doorway. Hailing taxis, dealing with luggage, recognizing regular guests, providing status to the hotel—there are loads and loads of value creation components to that doorman which aren’t captured in the open-the-door definition."
It's easy to see the visible things, but the invisible things make the difference.

🚨 TWIN BROTHER FIRES A NERF GUN AND RIPS HIS BROTHER’S TOOTH OUT - ON CAMERA
One twin had a loose tooth.
The other grabbed a Nerf blaster…pulled the trigger and fired…and instantly yanked it clean out.
Parents are out here doing gentle parenting. These two are running a full dental BLACK OPS unit in the living room.
This is peak brother energy.
What’s the craziest way you lost a tooth as a kid?

That tiny teaspoon of honey in your tea is more precious than it seems. To make just one teaspoon, 12 honeybees must work together their entire lives, visiting over 30,000 flowers and flying nearly 800 miles—all while carrying nectar drop by drop back to the hive.
Bees are master engineers of nature. They communicate using waggle dances, coordinate massive team foraging missions, and maintain hive temperatures with wing vibrations. But beyond honey, bees play a critical role in the planet—they pollinate 75% of the world’s crops, including fruits, vegetables, and nuts.
