Debugging CORS errors might actually be the most frustrating thing in the world.
I don't really understand anything about CORS except that it might solely exist to make my life miserable.
Turning 35 over the weekend.
I realize I don't know much.
But I learned one thing that most people over 30 eventually figure out: that it's super important to stretch.
So I'll be focusing on that now.
It turns out that there's a war going on in Amsterdam.
Aparently many of the yoga studios are being repurposed for pilates. Battle lines have been drawn and it's tearing the community apart.
I've been too focused on AI taking over the world and not enough about the dangers of pilates.

I was playing around with a tool that sent the same prompt to different models and it was interesting to see the differences in response.
Claude was the most impressive but Gemini was consistently good across all the prompts.
And I also see that non-techie people seem to trust it more.
When it came to building software it used to be you could only choose two: fast, cheap, or good.
I'm pretty convinced that in the right hands, gen AI changes all of that.
Says someone who's a few months late on the cursor train 🚂🚂🚂
Very true but the person who puts it there and the person who uses it are like ships passing in the night ⛵
Working in the marketing analytics space, the term SQL means very different things to very different people

@radkat.fitzpat.com sorry totally missed this!!!!
For me I don't need the trackball and I wanted something that felt more natural on my wrist. Plus I like the design 💅
If you're interested I can send a discount code for you to check it out. Let me know!
[5] The smart companies are going to start to wake up and realize it's suddenly become cheaper to go back to building in-house.
This won't happen overnight but,
SaaS is dead and AI will kill it.
[4] And what happens when all of a sudden instead of large in-house teams you can develop tools quickly and cheaply thanks to AI?
As a company, why would I choose to have to pay tens to hundreds of thousands per year for software that I will never own?
But what happens when these monthly subscriptions all of a sudden aren't that cheap,
both in individual cost and the number of subscriptions you need ("SaaS sprawl" is the official term)?
[2] Then came along some new scrappy startups which said, hey for a low monthly subscriptions, and no long term commitment, will give you everything you need!
Companies were excited! Goodbye expensive multi-year contracts or needing large internal teams.
[1] The original promise of SaaS was a much lower total cost of ownership (TCO).
Before, companies either had to hire large development teams (💸) or pay for external software implementations that were lengthy, expensive, and required multi-year contracts from companies like SAP and Oracle.
SaaS is dead. And AI (will) kill it.

why not 3?
I came to the realization a couple months ago that I don't really want to build a SaaS.
Instead, I use other people's SaaS to build custom tools for SMBs.
And can get some nice recurring revenue in the form of retainers/support/hosting/maintenance/etc.
People just want their problem solved.
Returning to using mac after a few years on windows, but is Numbers the worst application ever invented or is just me?
Just landed a new (big) client 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Sometimes it's the big things in life that make a difference 😁
In the latest stage of my AI addiction, I'm now using openrouter.ai to chat with all the models using the same prompt.
Now I'm doing even less original thinking!!! 🤓
Resisting the age-old temptation to make a LinkedIn post about how valentines day relates to B2B sales 💘
I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.
You have more fun as a follower, but you make more money as a leader.
Even more so in marketing
Thanks @miracodes.bsky.social 😊
Infographic showing a person's daily life creating manual reports vs. someone relaxing having automated it.
There's something about creating infographics that I find relaxing and rewarding.
It's the same itch I used to scratch creating slides in my previous life as a consultant.
But more fun. Way more fun.

Growth marketers sharing content on LinkedIn for other marketers
I feel sorry for all those consultants who spent years trying to sell RPA when really they should have been calling it "AI Agents". Sounds much cooler.
I wonder what use cases it's referring to? I'm guessing performance marketing is one of the big ones?

What's the appropriate amount of time to wait for someone before leaving a call?
And how long after that do you send the passive aggressive email about being sorry you missed them? 🤔
These AI outbound marketing tools feel like the next step in the decline of the internet...
