Hey everyone! If you don’t know me or my background, a large portion of my 15+ year career at companies like MSFT, FB, and Stripe has been building products and platforms for developers. Obviously, everything involving developers is now very different. So I’d love to chat with members of this community 1:1 to learn how you build with AI, how whatever company you work at uses AI, and the struggles you or your team faces while working with AI. I’m also happy to use part of the time to share and discuss anything on your mind about the state of software development, what it means for your career, and if AI might eventually kill us all. And if you take me up on a conversation, I would also love to give you early access and some free credits for some of our upcoming product releases. Link at the bottom of this post to schedule! But first, a bit more about why I want to chat… Now is the most exciting time in my career (I sincerely hope the same is true for you), and I don’t say that lightly. I am fortunate to have had some amazing opportunities in the past, but nothing compares to building software right now. At Microsoft, I worked on an ERP system that was designed to be extensible by an ecosystem of devs. At Facebook I built mobile app install ads for developers, Facebook Games on Web/Mobile for developers, and supported Facebook’s overall developer platform. At Stripe, I established a platform strategy for Billing to make it easier to adopt and extend for the development teams of buyers. Big tech taught me a lot about how to build for developers. At ArchAstro, my startup, we naturally gravitated towards building products in the same space. But in many respects, it feels like I am learning how to do this all over again because a) doing it at a startup is very different than in big tech, and b) the way teams build and integrate software (including our small team of 6) has fundamentally changed! Our team figured out how to operate efficiently using AI, and built tools and processes to really get the most out of AI while managing chaos around coordination and risk. We think these tools and processes could be valuable to the broader community, especially small teams and system integrators. At the same time, it’s clear that with AI, there has never been less homogeneity in how people work. Everyone has their own workflow, their own problems, and their own solutions. And so this is why I want to talk. I want to compare notes on the problems you’re facing, the types of solutions you may or may not have today, and if there is a way I can help! Please book 30 minutes with me next week! Again, I’d love to learn from you! And I will of course share the aggregated findings with this community after enough convos. calendar.app.google/9zPc6rBk…

ThinkingCap: Qwen3.8-27B now runs on a Mac and fits a 32GB machine! 4-bit MLX build - 21 GB, down from 52 GB Performance is very close to the full precision version. Vision capabilities and MTP speculative decoding are kept. huggingface.co/bottlecapai/T…

As Yom Kippur approaches, to everyone I’ve wronged, been mean to or been rude to this year, please take some time to reflect on what you did to make me act that way.

Also it’s hosted on tryintern.dev - we built it for agent created private internal sites and sharing because it’s just so much faster and easier. Sharepoint / PowerPoint but actually easy and a delight!

Les épidodes 7 et 8 de la 5è saison de #Fauda (qui racontent le 7 octobre) accomplissent le tour de force d'être extrêmement violents tout en étant d'une remarquable pudeur. On n'y voit ni les viols collectifs, ni les femmes dénudées, abattues et ligotées, ni les décapitations, ni les corps mutilés, ni les enfants massacrés, ni les familles brûlées vives dans leur maison, ni la chasse aux civils de Nova, ni la profanation des cadavres, ni l'enlèvement systématique des civils de tous âges... Comme si Lior Raz avait retenu la leçon de Claude Lanzmann : la souffrance absolue n'est pas un spectacle. Il existe de l'irreprésentable. Il y a des tragédies que l'image trahit en les montrant. L'essentiel est de donner l'horreur à sentir sans prétendre la reproduire. Le résultat est insoutenable. Regardez-les si vous en avez le courage. 👇🏿

Netflix viewers worldwide said Fauda’s portrayal of October 7 changed their understanding of the Hamas-led massacre. jpost.com/israel-news/cultur…

אני לא חושב שאנשים בארץ מבינים את החשיבות של סדרה שמופצת בנטפליקס שמראה בכל העולם מה באמת קרה ב-7 לאוקטובר. בעולם בו רוב האמריקאים הצעירים - שלא לדבר על שאר העולם - לא מאמינים שבכלל היה טבח, או חושבים שזו הייתה רק מתקפה על חיילים, קשה להגזים בצורך בסדרה עלילתית שמופצת בכל העולם בפלטפורמת הוידאו המובילה ומראה את האמת. מדינת ישראל הייתה צריכה להוציא כסף רב כדי לקדם את הצפייה בעונה הזו של פאודה בכל העולם במקום ההסברה הבלתי קיימת שלנו @issacharoff
