I've spent the past 20 years building software at industry leaders like Amazon and Oracle, but my greatest passion is working with fast-moving, early-stage startups.

Over the last 4 years, I've collaborated closely with 3 startups, helping them successfully launch products and secure key customer deals as a customer success engineer.

Recently, I've rapidly prototyped 7 MVPs in just 4 months, enabling startups to test ideas quickly and cost-effectively.

I thrive in dynamic environments where versatility, initiative, and rapid learning matter most. My expertise goes beyond coding—I specialize in engaging directly with customers, identifying their key challenges, and iterating quickly to create customer-centric products. Using the latest AI tools, I build solutions at lightning speed, keeping your startup agile and ahead of the competition.

I understand how critical it is to manage budgets carefully, so I prioritize cost-effective approaches to ensure your resources go as far as possible.

I'd love to chat about what you're building and discuss how we might collaborate to drive your startup forward. If you're looking for a dedicated, creative, and pragmatic partner, let's talk!

This is so true.

thank you.

Just created an alias

alias waitfor='f() { sleep $1; say "Task $2 is probably done now"; }; f'


Why an alias creating a function and running it, instead of just defining the waitfor() function?

    function waitfor(){ sleep $1; say "Task $2 is probably done now"; }

I am sorry, isnt this the post itself? Or am I missing something?


Mods merged comments from another thread that pointed somewhere else.


one small success at a time. Its a very deep mantra once you start applying in life.


I tested this prompt in various LLMs

1. phind was by far the best - gave me solution in just 2 steps

2. Grok was second best - it did arrive at the solution but with additional non-sense step. But the solution was correct.

3. To my surprise GPT-4 could not solve the prompt and in fact gave a wrong answer in 4 steps - "Now you should have exactly 4 liters in the 5-liter container." which is not what I asked

4. As expected Gemini pro was the worst. It asks me to pour completely filled up 3L container into 5L and then you will be left with 2L in 3L container.. LOL that does not even make sense.


LLMs also train on official documentations which is where 90% of problems get solved.


In what world are you living in? That's maybe true in noob land. Literally all the problems I have are being solved in github issues, if at all. When has documentation been 90% sufficient for anything? In the 80s?

/e: sorry, sounds a bit stand off-ish.

Let me give an example: I was trying to find a way to clone a gorm query to keep the code clean. The documentation doesn't have anything (no, .Session isn't a solution) and the only place I had was issues discussing that. Apparently you can't. So I'll be ditching gorm and move to pgx in the near future. That's how it happens for me all the time. The documentation is lacking the hard part, always.


What will happen to official docs when it becomes clear that the only thing that reads them are llm-training runs?


The LLMs will read the actual source code which is way better than the documentation (as any iOS engineer will tell you). For private codebases the companies can provide custom-trained LLMs. Techniques like "Representation Engineering" will at some point also prevent against accidental leakage of private codebase source code.


Call it a win?


Won't you think of all the technical writers?!
