A master of that long awkward pause
This is exactly how AI bros sound 😂
Imagine getting from Los Angeles to San Francisco in under 90 minutes without ever stepping on a plane. Think it's impossible? Think again. It's 381 miles. The Bugatti Chiron goes 261 miles per hour. Do the math. The future is here. It's just not evenly distributed.
Capitalism has been so successful at eradicating poverty, hunger, and hardship that it gave rise to a generation utterly detached from the realities of production, trade, and effort. They’ve grown up in comfort, surrounded by abundance, and instead of gratitude, they respond with…
FYI, this is close/equivalent to Nigeria’s entire generation capacity, to power a data center. You can never be rich without energy.
we have signed a deal for an additional 4.5 gigawatts of capacity with oracle as part of stargate. easy to throw around numbers, but this is a _gigantic_ infrastructure project. some progress photos from abilene:
Day 17 of @ycombinator: Our first outing in SF with @cluely and @brexHQ We finally picked our heads up from our computers and touched some grass!
The concept of Zakah makes so much sense at a fundamental level. It promotes building wealth and directs a small portion of that wealth to underprivileged individuals of your choosing and not to some wasteful central government like traditional taxes.
I find myself frequently setting up Ubuntu VMs for production use with different providers. I use an Ansible playbook to harden these servers and I thought it’d be great to share it with everyone. Check it out and give it a star github.com/ahmerds/server…
The density of smart ambitious people in San Francisco is incredible. Not sure there’s anywhere else in the world like this!
Day 9 of @ycombinator: My co-founder has finally arrived!! 🎉 (@ahmxrd's first time in America) Honestly, we weren’t sure this moment would come. The visa process for Nigerians is brutal, sometimes taking over 1 year just to get an appointment (with no guarantee of approval).…
What is really driving the anti-establishment sentiments going around right now? Social media? Lack of contentment? The job market?
😂😂
Soham also used to guilt trip me for his being slow on PRs when India Pakistan thing was going on, all while he was in Mumbai. Next person should hire him for the Chief Intelligence Officer role.
Yep, much of the current hype is from people who couldn’t really bother to learn how to build but can now go on Lovable and pretend they’re doing something. Outside of that, not much has changed about building products. No, it’s not easier than ever and will not be anytime soon.
so wild everyone’s a 10x engineer now but i’m not seeing 10x app quality or 10x innovation in any space other than slop and bullshit
