    - AI - 
    LinkedIn is wholly, and holy, F*cking garbage with all of the new AI posts. It is so absurd because everything reads all the same. The new age of money-chasing has begun and I'm afraid that a large number of people will be sacrificing their own personal growth and development in order to chase...

    Work Scheduling SaaS

    SAAS / APPS 
    Hi all, Quick update on my outreach so far: Two more demos done: Manager A loved the app, but their company already provides them with a scheduling tool—and they actually prefer using Excel. So that one’s a no for paying out of pocket. Manager B really liked the core features and suggested...

    Should i learn the basics of code & then use A.I to code?

    IDEA 
    You should use AI to learn how to code. Open up ChatGPT and tell it you want to learn the basics of .net core 8 (or whatever) and its going to spit out a bunch of stuff you do not understand. Start at the first thing you do not understand and say, "Explain this to me". Be clear to it that...

    How Smart People Still Lose (And What to Do Instead)

    MINDSET 
    The guy in the coal mine is ‘working harder’ than the CEO back in the air conditioned boardroom. So why does the CEO make 100 times more? One word: judgment. Judgment is rare, leveraged, and has compounding effects. In a world where machines, computers, and robots are doing more of the...
