In the era of AI development, how do you create a moat around your product? @johnrudolphdrexler.com thinks there's no moat, @coulb.com thinks taste is the moat, but @ianlandsman.com says no, it's actually their schtick that's the moat for their new app Tidy.

This week @ianlandsman.com is joined by @johnrudolphdrexler.com & @coulb.com of Thunk to talk about their new app Tidy, what constitutes a moat in the age of AI, why phone spam is the absolute worst, and so much more.

The new @contrapoints.bsky.social video about Saw might be one of the best pieces of YouTube content I've seen in a while. Philosophically breaking down justice fetishism, Saw, Se7en in "these unprecedented times" is eerie and very astute. www.youtube.com/watch?v=uiGI...

I just published a new "marketing for developers" case study. I sat down with @coulb.com and @johnrudolphdrexler.com to talk about their agency's new SaaS (Tidy), and how they should think about promoting it. youtu.be/V9Nyntq4lT0?...

I taught claude everything it knows. Sorta...

I'm really sick today, just merging the fuck out of a bunch of PRs with this energy

omg they made Jeffrey Epstein Inbox Simulator '25 jmail.world

It’s crazy that they were so institutionally committed to not feeding detainees that they didn’t even have infrastructure to do it. It’s not accidental or incompetent, it’s just the plan.

cosigned.

pretty interesting ballgame they've got going on tonight

There is some serious baseball going on right now.

This is unhinged and beautiful ❤️

"AI types fast. So if you think work is typing, it seems really productive." - (paraphrasing) @coulb.com

So I broadly agree with all the “No Kings” protesters critiques of the current administration. Protest is a tool to put the powerful on notice as you what your demands are, and what the consequences will be if they are not met. Not a fan of protests with permits and police escorts politely begging

Hey dont’t mind me, I’m just deconstructing Iraq war propaganda I remember from my childhood. That whole thing about “Sadaam Hussein made like 20 guys get plastic surgery to look just like him” was fake right? Like that’s an insane thing that they just said on TV a lot in 2003?

Taking bets on whether I get this keyboard

I need a torrent that is a complete mirror of 2010 Datpiff.com

Using undocumented APIs be like...

Looking forward to testing this out this weekend. I've been a Zed maxi for 6 months of so: github.com/croustibat/z...

This is the biggest update to server management since 2014. ◆ Instant Laravel VPS servers ◆ Zero downtime deployments ◆ Team terminal sessions ◆ Free on-forge domains ◆ Health checks, Heartbeats, & real-time metrics

My theory is that "working class white people solve a murder with the help of big-city cop/journalist" shows only exist so British actors can learn interesting American accents. Every time I watch one of these shows its Mid-Atlantic-Mushmouth/Cajun/New-England (the weird accents) starring 4 Brits

We live in unprecedented 🫨

There is no more proven way to generate last-mile motivation than this song: www.youtube.com/watch?v=QM9x...

Someone born the year Country Grammar came out will be defending their doctoral thesis this year.

I’m thrilled to announce that I will be speaking at Wire⚡Live next month! As someone who has used Livewire since its initial release, I'm excited to share the tips and tricks I use to write production-ready Livewire apps. Come to Buffalo to help make the first Wire⚡Live great!

I’m sorry the eagles just blocked two field goals in a row to win the game, and the Jets just blocked one to pull ahead. What is going on

An interesting sentence from the person yelling outside my house: “I just got off the fuck work and you’re sitting here doing nothing.”

Can't wait to be in Buffalo! I just gave @calebporzio.bsky.social my talk title. "Livewire.pdf, and Other Abominations" wire-live.com Buy a ticket, you hooligan!

Recession indicator. One of the better 2/5 players in the Philly poker scene is getting a job at the mall selling Rolexes.

Nobody seems more bitter than a guy chirping about Android features from 2019 in the comments of an Apple announcement. A valuable lesson about the perceived value of correctness when yucking yums.

And like the first leaf falling from the tree, with the stroke of a docusign, sales season became silly season. 🍂🍁🍃

OK, so the Tighten logo isn't the only thing exciting (to me) about the Wire:Live web site. I'm also super excited to share I'll be speaking! We love using Livewire as one of our primary frontend stacks at @tighten.com, so I'm honored to be on stage for the inaugural conference!

There is rain on your skin, and nobody is gonna feel it for you. Time to release those inhibitions.

@kentbeck.com of the day: Rhythm. Waiting until the right moment preserves energy and avoids clutter. Act with intensity when the time comes to act.

The new Clipse album is kinda insane: open.spotify.com/album/17ScNn...

See you in Buffalo. Livewire 4 beta launch, cool talks, hang time, bowling, and some hacking. Hosted by ⚡Livewire and 💥Thunk t.co/oebGpzYhpI

This one is for the folks who don't want to hear about our business, at all. podcast.thunk.dev/episodes/72-...

Just almost fell down the stairs due to slippery socks. I am fine but that was so scary holy shit.

If you don’t shut your bitch ass up and get off my lock screen this morning.

Going to do some more streaming on Kapow with @johnrudolphdrexler.com tonight at 8pm EST www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oky7...

Feels like people aren't raising awareness like they used to.

A person would get fired for this lol...
