Just finished @lexfridman interview with @DHH. Absolute hopecore. Truly a cure for AI psychosis. I'm excited about how a single person can actually compete with Apple, Google and Microsoft in the OS space with the help of agents. AI is an incredible amplifier. And I actually love the idea. I don't want to live in this Cyberpunk 2077 world where we only have these 5 corporations that exist forever, and that's it. Even if I don't agree with DHH on everything (although I still agree on many things), he's the person I can easily listen to for 5 hours. I just have to install Omarchy after this, don't I? You'll never guess which feature finally motivated me to get over the struggle of *checks notes* a 1-minute installation.
