It pains me to see businesses that raised rounds in the tens of millions have bad websites

Has anyone tried mastra.ai yet for building agents? It looks very promising.

AI is proving that cognition is our most finite resource as humans. The true value of AI seems to be moving cognitive load to these agents that can do redundant tasks faster and better than we can, in turn saving our own precious brain power for complex and creative tasks.

I just came across this graphic novel that Postman created about APIs. It's a fun read and I wish I had something like this in high school.

APIs are the core of an open and distributed web, and building/maintaining them is crucial to building a future of sustainable agents.

It is so critically important that you remember this one thing:

You can just build stuff.

Quality is often misattributed to quantity. This leads to frivolous goals that push volume over value and eventually degrades overall productivity and output.

It's amazing to me how easy it has become to use cutting edge AI models. Access to life-changing technology is becoming fully democratized. Everyone is literally one Python notebook within reach of starting a successful business and changing an industry.

Here's a function for the Mac users out there to test time to first byte for any site. It's a great way to easily test lives sites to get a pulse on speed.

I added this to my .zshrc file so I can easily use it from my command line.

Dreaming of the day we can have coding jam seshes like music. I think AI will help this. With music things can just happen so spontaneously. Instruments are such a perfect abstraction for creating sound and I hope AI gets to that point with building software

boho auth is almost ready to launch

one time heard a drunk dude in a hot tub say:

"because that's what we do in America, we build things"

and honestly he couldn't be more spot on
