Welcome to Tech Thoughts—Brace for Impact!
Unfiltered Opinions, No-BS Insights: Slicing Through the Tech Hype in AI, Cloud, Databases, Code, and Startups
Beginnings are a pain in the ASCII. You know that moment when you're staring at a blank screen, the cursor blinking like it's laughing at your writer's block? Yeah, I just wrestled that beast. But enough navel-gazing—let's dive into why this newsletter exists and why you should care.
Why This? Why Now? Why Me?
Simple: The tech world is drowning in noise. Everyone's got an opinion, and most of them have the depth of a kiddie pool. I'm here to drop truth bombs and give you my unfiltered takes on AI, data, cloud, code, and yes, startups. Why startups? Because I've been there, done that, got the t-shirt, and then started another company. Call me a second-time founder, a serial entrepreneur, or just a startup junkie with a keyboard and too many opinions. Whatever you call it, I've got the battle scars and caffeine-fueled insights to prove it.
Will you agree with everything? Hell no. Will you want to virtually high-five me or digitally slap me after reading some of my hot takes? Probably both.
But here's the kicker: This isn't just another tech bro spewing buzzwords. I've been in the trenches—coding until my fingers cramped, building startups that both soared and face-planted, scaling cloud solutions that made grown SREs weep, and watching tech trends recycle faster than a Silicon Valley startup's office furniture.
If you're sick of reading "AI will solve world hunger" or "This new JavaScript framework will change everything" for the 37th time, you're in the right place.
What Kind of Digital Thunderdome Are We Building Here?
Let's get one thing straight: This isn't a safe space for lukewarm opinions. I'm here to say the things that make VCs choke on their kombucha. I'll be:
Calling out overhyped trends faster than you can say "blockchain"
Breaking down complex tech in simple language (because real geniuses can explain things without sounding like a thesaurus having a seizure)
Giving you my unvarnished take on what's actually working in tech and what's a dumpster fire in disguise
And disagreement? Bring it on. If you think I'm full of it, say so. This is a community for the curious, the opinionated, and the tech nerds who enjoy a good intellectual sparring match. Haters? You're welcome too—just bring some decent arguments along with your caps lock.
