    Just read Metamorphosis from Kafka. Makes you feel how your loved ones leave you when you are no longer needed. Can be read in couple of hours also.

    At least dropshipping delivers a product to your doorstep. Vibe coding, by contrast, gives you some boring blob that either doesn’t really work or, at best, is just an internal automation tool for your business, one that many large companies (where the real money is) won’t even allow you to...

    I made the prompt with O3. I changed some things of course. You are an expert tax advisor. I need help getting mycompany’s Dutch VAT ready for Q2 2025. All the invoices are in Google Drive at <FOLDER_PATH>. Inside that folder you’ll see AR for sales invoices and AP for purchase invoices...

    Holy shit. Today, the ChatGPT agent read all my saved invoices in the drive, calculated VAT, created a Google sheets file with the data, saved it to the drive, and then FULLY SUBMITED the VAT returns on my behalf inside the government website in Dutch! Of course, I double-checked all the data...

    But coders suck balls at understanding the requirements, and also grossly underestimate how much people WANT and would PAY for ease of use.

    100%! This is how I make money. Was always like this but the barriers to entry have been lifted if you can get to the CLEAR OUTCOME that the clients/ customers need. Most people though are too stupid to even reverse engineer that part.

    Cool conversation and video. I use a lot of AI for the corporate world to keep the easily offended fairies from crying, and giving updates. The corporate world honestly in my view just brought it on themselves with this bland and meh way of expressing themselves. On other occasions I use it to...

    Thanks for the mention, @MJ DeMarco . I have to admit I was selling my family’s olive oil, but now it’s just a side hustle for fun. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still going, but the math doesn’t really add up. To be honest, it didn’t fit my style, and I didn’t truly want to scale it, so it became...

    No disagreement there. I think, for example, that the recent cuts to overhead from “middle management” and the extra COVID staff three years ago were justified, to an extent. But I’m talking about a specific breed of cretins who come into big companies and carry out the “enshitification” for...

    The most infuriating part is that the people who did that probably got a big salary increase, since cutting costs saved the company money without affecting measurable demand for the product. It’s one thing to experience it as a consumer, but I’m unlucky enough to have experienced it from the...

    I’m consulting businesses on process improvements, and what I hate about this job is having to persuade senior managers, directors, and C-level executives to adopt AI tools for automation with a solid business case when it’s obvious they should. Many of these companies set up “sandbox”...

    How did I do that? I think I mentioned what happens in the real world. I would really suggest you dive a bit into Steven Pinker’s work, it helped me see these kinds of matters with more nuance.
