Speed compounds. Taste directs it. Ship with clarity, not clutter.

A very clear reminder for me every time I look at my phone. My job is to build great software, and that’s the mission I am on. Because, every human deserves the best.

Asked a few companies how they hire FDEs (forward deployed engineers). Head this article from @alexandr_wang referenced a few times as what worked well:

Figma’s IPO is what I actually call an IPO. Quite exciting. And it feels right. Made some employees “actual” millionaire. Well done Figma. And I bet a product like this would not have happened anywhere other than in the US. Not in any developing economy.

Not all your users want to log in to share feedback — and now, they don’t have to. FeatureOS now supports Anonymous Submissions for public orgs. More feedback, less friction. #SaaS #UserFeedback #FeatureOS #productmanagement #ProductivityHack

The core skill for barely surviving in the age of AI is writing. Slow thinking, and writing. I am going to push my team no matter what to practice written communication internally. As @karpathy said, the hottest programming language is English.

Took 15 minutes to decide on the symmetry, and this is my new logo for my personal brand. What am I going to do with it? No freaking idea.

We recently moved out of @PlanetScale for all the right reasons, and here's why their dark patters are quite worrying. No more PaaS at @SkcriptHQ: featureos.app/blog/bye-plane…

MCP is incredible, so we decided to give it a shot for @getfeatureOS, and it feels like very promising tech for data analysis. We're soon releasing it for our customers. Here is a glimpse of it: The demo shows how we can search and filter FeatureOS posts with Cursor's chat UI

One step closer to release now. No more "You remember that thing I mentioned about something related to something". Just search with what comes to your mind on top of your saves on Knol → knol.app These are some of my saves this week, and I also added the…

This is not how you acknowledge a major vulnerability that affected millions of users. @CloudflareDev acted faster than @vercel's team. And as always, Vercel never fails to disappoint me. They are not the team with good intentions. Vendor lock-in. Lack of ownership. Shying away…

It's happening. I have been working on a personal project for the last month and built a production version for my personal use. It's called ☁ Knol.app (beta signups open) → a catch-all platform for storing and retrieving information for you, teams, friends, and…

As I enter the weekend, I wanted to get inspired from some of the great pieces of software that are being built right now. And I turned to this particular blog by @zeddotdev. It shows how giving a damn about software yields slow, but worthy results. It inspires a whole generation…

Anyone who says "AI can take care of the UI, and you only have to worry about making it better with prompts" clearly has no empathy for the user. The amount of false hope platforms like Bolt and v0 has been giving people is just insane. Hype cycles end.
