Cloudflare launched /crawl this week. One API call, full site scraped, no browser management. They've also been selling the bot protection that would block exactly that.

I'm not saying GenAI is a revolution. I'm just saying that up until last week I had never written more than 2 lines of LaTeX. I have now written 2 professional documents in important contexts. And I am starting to see why some people are addicted.

Today @ghost.org crossed $10M ARR, as a bootstrapped non-profit foundation building open source software. Indie publisher revenue earned with Ghost now ~$130M, and accelerating.

If you speak french and want well informed, funny & slightly non-conformist takes on tech, don't miss the campaign to fund this new media. By the same people behind @lepavenumerique.com

Why do I love living in Paris ? I can try 4 very different world class cheesecakes in 1 hour. And one of them has Comté in it. This brings me joy.

We've all heard "SaaS is dead" enough times. Recently I read multiple people developing something more specific: Nicolas Bustamante from the software side, Ben Thompson from the hardware side, @johnonolan.bsky.social about open source. Different starting points. Same direction.

We adopt frameworks whole because the alternative used to be unthinkable. Then one engineer and ~$1,100 in tokens produced a drop-in Next.js on Vite in a week. Same API surface. 4x faster builds, 57% smaller bundles.

Anthropic makes Claude. They won't allow it for mass surveillance or autonomous weapons. The Pentagon wants those limits gone—every lawful use, no exceptions.

A software terroir. What a beautiful phrase. We'll be using it in future. ❤️

Tech internship postings dropped 30% since 2023. No juniors today means no seniors in five years. The industry is eating its own seed corn.

People who think AI will replace software engineers are the same people who thought Soylent would replace food.

Last year I started writing on bleuprint.eu. This year I will be writing something there every two weeks. Expect long-form pieces on software, craft and why the Silicon Valley path isn’t the only one. Recurring themes: convivial tools, craft over hacks, small teams... Thread of threads ⬇️

Your software won't die of AI disruption. It'll die of a jurisdiction change you didn't see coming.

Recent events got me thinking: what happens if I lose access to Gmail tomorrow? A bit of AI-assisted reflection and some scripts later, I now have a full picture. 55% of my logins are affected. About 5% are genuinely critical.

Tech internships dropped 30%. Applications surged 7%. Bootcamp placement rates collapsed from 83% to 37%. We keep thinking about tech like factories. I think we need workshops.

Google released AlphaFold 2 open-source in 2021 : protein structure prediction for everyone. Then AlphaFold 3 came out last year, but locked down : commercial use forbidden. Four months later, three MIT students rebuilt it and put it on GitHub. They called it Boltz.

Watch me turn 1,047 reels I saved in the last three years into very focused notes in my cursor-assisted repo.

I'm doing something weird combining Marie Kondo and cursor. Let's just say that I know for a fact how many clothes I own. And its ~34% less than a week ago.

"996 Just Means You Have No Leverage The Performance of Work Is Not Work" www.joanwestenberg.com/p/996-just-m...

It’s cringe to see successful companies that have nothing to do with AI rebrand themselves as “an AI platform” because they think it will somehow help them. Workday is a HR platform. Sure, they added AI features like everyone else but it was never “built with AI at the core”

My only take currently on vibe coding is that it resembles alchemy.

Cursor for X is the new Uber for X

The interesting part is how when Deep Research first came out by OpenAI, I paid for the $200 plan just to show it... and was blown away A few days later, Perplexity launched their version in the $20/package... was also good Now ChatGPT moved it to $20/mo one Competition fantastic for customers!

It took twitter years to do that. The speed of execution of the @bsky.app team is insane.

The old world will not die of AI. It will die first of inefficiencies stemming from using .docx and other bloated formats.

$5M ARR. 6 people. 5 years. ScrapingBee 🐝 proves that small teams with craft and focus can achieve BIG things. Here’s the story of how Pierre de Wulf and Kevin Sahin went from indie-hackers to building a $5M business — one failure at a time 👇

Move fast and break things is a great playbook for "blitzscaling" but a very poor playbook to improve complex systems.

This is wild ! leanaileaderboard.com A company making 1M+ per employees (& profitable) is definitely a stronger goal for me than creating a unicorn.

"Buy now pay later" for food. It's one thing to use BNPL to manage your cash-flow for big purchases. But to buy food, it is a very bad signal. That means that there are enough people that are tight on cash to make that a profit opportunity. This is alarming. www.nbcnews.com/business/bus...
