I’m turning 30 in a month; how should I use this period the best?

First on Postgres and PGVector power

"PGVECTOR IS NOW FASTER THAN PINECONE. And 75% cheaper"

Many think you need vector dbs to do vector similarity searches and RAG, but Postgres and PGVector are the duo to rule them all! 👑

The problem? I'm using NextJs with prisma but PGVector is not yet supported 🤦🏻

Soon open sourcing a sample NextJS + PGVector + Prisma(ish) project to share my learnings

Do you know what is this?

It's the "IDE" for programming COBOL, 60 years ago.

Funny that the language is described as "a compiled English-like computer programming language designed for business use"

More than half a century later, we finally can program "using English-like language" to LLMs.

And a quote from Paul Graham, on the best responses he received when asked founders why they are working on their startup:

"I wasn't looking to start a company; I saw this opportunity and built X/Y/Z and it organically exploded so I continued"

💎 James from Posthog:
- He asks his executive coach about the difference between founders and CEOs of $50B companies and $1B companies, the answer?

"They really really like what they do".

"Opportunity is immense, we are about to enter the biggest human transformation in ages. Build something, create something, it might genuinely change the world (for the better)."

Last weekend I joined Startup School by YC in London, meeting PG, Tom, Gustaf, and sooo soo many talented people.
