In the era of AI development, how do you create a moat around your product? @johnrudolphdrexler.com thinks there's no moat, @coulb.com thinks taste is the moat, but @ianlandsman.com says no, it's actually their schtick that's the moat for their new app Tidy.

This week @ianlandsman.com is joined by @johnrudolphdrexler.com & @coulb.com of Thunk to talk about their new app Tidy, what constitutes a moat in the age of AI, why phone spam is the absolute worst, and so much more.

The new @contrapoints.bsky.social video about Saw might be one of the best pieces of YouTube content I've seen in a while. Philosophically breaking down justice fetishism, Saw, Se7en in "these unprecedented times" is eerie and very astute. www.youtube.com/watch?v=uiGI...

I just published a new "marketing for developers" case study. I sat down with @coulb.com and @johnrudolphdrexler.com to talk about their agency's new SaaS (Tidy), and how they should think about promoting it. youtu.be/V9Nyntq4lT0?...

It’s crazy that they were so institutionally committed to not feeding detainees that they didn’t even have infrastructure to do it. It’s not accidental or incompetent, it’s just the plan.

So I broadly agree with all the “No Kings” protesters critiques of the current administration. Protest is a tool to put the powerful on notice as you what your demands are, and what the consequences will be if they are not met. Not a fan of protests with permits and police escorts politely begging

Hey dont’t mind me, I’m just deconstructing Iraq war propaganda I remember from my childhood. That whole thing about “Sadaam Hussein made like 20 guys get plastic surgery to look just like him” was fake right? Like that’s an insane thing that they just said on TV a lot in 2003?

My theory is that "working class white people solve a murder with the help of big-city cop/journalist" shows only exist so British actors can learn interesting American accents. Every time I watch one of these shows its Mid-Atlantic-Mushmouth/Cajun/New-England (the weird accents) starring 4 Brits

I’m thrilled to announce that I will be speaking at Wire⚡Live next month! As someone who has used Livewire since its initial release, I'm excited to share the tips and tricks I use to write production-ready Livewire apps. Come to Buffalo to help make the first Wire⚡Live great!
My headshot. I'm smiling, wearing big oval glasses, and I have blue, purple, and pink hair. I'm wearing a black and white button-down shirt that features a striped and floral print design. In the background, a brick building and a tree with turning leaves are visible. A grainy filter has been added on top.

At the bottom, a black banner features the Wire⚡Live logo on the left and the text "Buffalo, NY October 28-29" on the right. Above the banner is the text "Speaker: Andy Newhouse" in black text on a yellow ribbon.

Nobody seems more bitter than a guy chirping about Android features from 2019 in the comments of an Apple announcement. A valuable lesson about the perceived value of correctness when yucking yums.

OK, so the Tighten logo isn't the only thing exciting (to me) about the Wire:Live web site. I'm also super excited to share I'll be speaking! We love using Livewire as one of our primary frontend stacks at @tighten.com, so I'm honored to be on stage for the inaugural conference!
