@dougboneparth I mean, he is not wrong—5% returns are not that exciting until you put them in context. Like returns monthly, or weekly, or even better, daily. And the higher starting point you get, the higher the excitement. 😂

@durov A second-level domain sounds amazing, but Bluetooth that is not glitching on every call is much better. 🌟

@anah_sahh There is big difference between "can", "build" and "build something useful"

20 years ago I heard the phrase: “You can’t automate chaos.” It still holds up perfectly against today’s AI hype. Organizations need a solid digital and data foundation first. AI doesn’t fix the mess — it just amplifies whatever is already there. More: https://t.co/CYF8wFLKFP

@elonmusk While AI still cannot access our thoughts and deliver insights telepathically, we just use code as a way of efficiently describing repeatable behavior. If a compiler were to interpret human language, it would become "source code."

@chamath T&M stops making sense because instead of fixed salary expenses for developers, you have to add token spend, which is expensive and can vary drastically. Everyone expects cheaper and faster implementations because of AI hype, without additional variable charges for tokens.

@durov If @telegram barely works with Bluetooth on Android or Android Auto. What t.*** problem is that?

@tobi Shamelessly stealing "company moves at the speed of its slowest secret." I constantly catch myself trying to align language, break silos to make projects work. Companies' T-cells will work extra shifts fighting transparency but approach is worth trying!

@figma Complex diagrams in mermaid create monsters with auto-layout. @figma how does it work with FigJam? is LLM responsible for layout composition?

@PawelHuryn Polishing LLM results and trying to fine-tune behavior or perf, doing it with natural language instead of code, is still coding - the difference is translation to machine code is abstracted further away.

@dessaigne @RaphaelDabadie @Foaster_ai McK or not - organizations need experience that they do not have internally (and scapegoat if things are not working well). Setting "north star", backcasting, gap analysis are not new. Leveraging agents as a consulting automation subscription is interesting packaging though.

@ecommerceshares So basically, they started from CLI and moving towards IDE designed around agentic workflows... In parallel with claims that IDE would be dead by EOY.

"program.md" sounds very similar to "program.cs" from my dotnet background. The more we trying to get better results from AI the closer we get to development best practices and project management approaches. We just writing now at the higher level of abstraction. https://t.co/cFyvtKK4Zk

@rohanpaul_ai It is strange to say that "SaaS is Dead" but "Our SaaS is different". - Software is not only coding. - AI cost is not zero, even if you have less people. AI makes building easier and cheaper, but doesn't magically replace ERP or CRM.
