It felt like I knew him. Not knew knew - I never talked to him - but knew him from his writing basically.
He had written on his blog about being away for a little while with no new posts. I had read it and thought he may be going away for a vacation.
RIP.
It’s a bad time to want a new computer by Jay Peters
The competition for parts for data centers is all based on a bet that AI will be a foundational part of how people will use computers and interact with tech in the future. The hyperscalers are racing to build out infrastructure to train their AI models and offer AI-based services for people and businesses. But the lack of supply for components means that buying computers is increasingly more miserable for everyday consumers. Today, everything in tech is more expensive than it was yesterday.
Would this bubble pop soon? But I think this is our new reality. I can only hope that there are no further price increases, but I think there will be.
This doesn’t mean you should never grind at 100% effort. I think there are probably two or three times a year where I work as hard as I possibly can: long hours, intense focus, thinking about the problem from when I wake up to when I go to bed. But I reserve this mode of work for when the rewards are really high. For the rest of the year, I take it relatively easy.
There is a matter of luck involved in this too, or skill. And the headline is so damn salicious!
Read this before you vibe-code another app by Yael Grauer
The danger, he says, is when a personal app drifts into the realm of business software and stores shared, hosted data without anybody realizing that shift has happened. And, he says, the calculus changes when vibe coding moves away from local apps for tracking migraines or meals or package deliveries and enters the realm of apps that handle customer logs, medical data, financial records, or internal documents.
This is when you need to know what you’re building, or know enough to prompt the agent to build it for you.
WhatsApp head Will Cathcart is stepping down after seven years by Emma Roth
Will Cathcart, who led WhatsApp for the past seven years, is stepping down from his role as Meta appoints a new leader. On Monday, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced on Facebook that Kunal Shah, the founder of an Indian fintech startup called Cred, is taking over as the head of WhatsApp.
I used to use Cred at a time. My account is still there, and I guess it still has access to my Gmail.
The pessimist in me thinks Meta is doing this for the financial data Cred has on Indians.
The other aspect could be Kunal could help monetise WhatsApp somehow? Which would mean WhatsApp moving on from its messaging roots. Messaging could end up being a feature, instead of being the main thing. Which would be sad. WhatsApp used to be good. Not now, of course, but it used to be. I wish more of my circle was on Signal.
