They don't want to admit what it is. They don't want to admit what it is. They don't want to admit what it is. That is why want to admit what it is. That is why want to admit what it is. That is why they can't figure it out. And that's they can't figure it out. And that's they can't figure it out. And that's delusion, right? I mean, we see that delusion, right? I mean, we see that delusion, right? I mean, we see that everywhere in the tech industry right everywhere in the tech industry right everywhere in the tech industry right now. You don't want to admit what you're now. You don't want to admit what you're now. You don't want to admit what you're actually looking at. Like kind of like actually looking at. Like kind of like actually looking at. Like kind of like the circular whatever circular the circular whatever circular the circular whatever circular investment crap that's happening with investment crap that's happening with investment crap that's happening with AI. You don't want to admit what it is. AI. You don't want to admit what it is. AI. You don't want to admit what it is. So you try to explain it away and you So you try to explain it away and you So you try to explain it away and you can't because you're being delusional can't because you're being delusional can't because you're being delusional and that's the whole and that's the whole and that's the whole >> thing being delusional. >> thing being delusional. >> thing being delusional. >> But but I think Yeah. But but I think >> But but I think Yeah. But but I think >> But but I think Yeah. But but I think that the delusions comes because of the that the delusions comes because of the that the delusions comes because of the the root cause and the root cause is the root cause and the root cause is the root cause and the root cause is when people says they are investors and when people says they are investors and when people says they are investors and this is which is the majority 99% of this is which is the majority 99% of this is which is the majority 99% of them for them investing is I put money I them for them investing is I put money I them for them investing is I put money I get some money back whatever and I don't get some money back whatever and I don't get some money back whatever and I don't understand why understand why understand why >> they don't question why so that's the >> they don't question why so that's the >> they don't question why so that's the that that's how that's why you know that that's how that's why you know that that's how that's why you know that's why that's why people have become that's why that's why people have become that's why that's why people have become the the adjustment variable For most the the adjustment variable For most the the adjustment variable For most CEOs nowadays, they want to deliver CEOs nowadays, they want to deliver CEOs nowadays, they want to deliver return to the investors. So what is the return to the investors. So what is the return to the investors. So what is the easiest thing to cut? People. So they easiest thing to cut? People. So they easiest thing to cut? People. So they fire people.

  3. fire people. fire people. >> Yeah. But they really do start to >> Yeah. But they really do start to >> Yeah. But they really do start to freaking care when they do lose a lot of freaking care when they do lose a lot of freaking care when they do lose a lot of money. money. money. >> Yeah. But but because they didn't think >> Yeah. But but because they didn't think >> Yeah. But but because they didn't think about in the beginning or what they were about in the beginning or what they were about in the beginning or what they were investing in, it's far too late because investing in, it's far too late because investing in, it's far too late because you're 10 years into the hype. So if you're 10 years into the hype. So if you're 10 years into the hype. So if they want to understand what it is right they want to understand what it is right they want to understand what it is right now, first of all, they're gonna commit now, first of all, they're gonna commit now, first of all, they're gonna commit suicide because suicide because suicide because >> I know I know. But but but see that's >> I know I know. But but but see that's >> I know I know. But but but see that's that's the thing is when you're when that's the thing is when you're when that's the thing is when you're when you're investing simply for the returns you're investing simply for the returns you're investing simply for the returns and don't understand the mechanics of and don't understand the mechanics of and don't understand the mechanics of what you're investing in that that is what you're investing in that that is what you're investing in that that is the outcome. the outcome. the outcome. >> But also what what is completely >> But also what what is completely >> But also what what is completely ridiculous is when people call it ridiculous is when people call it ridiculous is when people call it digital gold or digital XYZ or an asset. digital gold or digital XYZ or an asset. digital gold or digital XYZ or an asset. Technically it's an instrument. And so Technically it's an instrument. And so Technically it's an instrument. And so people who don't have a finance people who don't have a finance people who don't have a finance background, don't know how to abstract background, don't know how to abstract background, don't know how to abstract the finance stack, they just call it an the finance stack, they just call it an the finance stack, they just call it an asset, but the underlying underlying asset, but the underlying underlying asset, but the underlying underlying asset is actually fiat. It's it's the asset is actually fiat. It's it's the asset is actually fiat. It's it's the value of the fiat that's being placed in value of the fiat that's being placed in value of the fiat that's being placed in that crypto.

  4. that crypto. that crypto. >> And uh and so it doesn't Yeah. It >> And uh and so it doesn't Yeah. It >> And uh and so it doesn't Yeah. It doesn't actually have intrinsic value. doesn't actually have intrinsic value. doesn't actually have intrinsic value. And I'm serious. Just go on coin uh coin And I'm serious. Just go on coin uh coin And I'm serious. Just go on coin uh coin what's that thing called? Coindesk. and what's that thing called? Coindesk. and what's that thing called? Coindesk. and listen to any of these jokers that get listen to any of these jokers that get listen to any of these jokers that get up there and when as soon as the up there and when as soon as the up there and when as soon as the question of what is what's the fin question of what is what's the fin question of what is what's the fin fundamental value of this thing they fundamental value of this thing they fundamental value of this thing they break down they break down they break down they >> but we I think we're in violent >> but we I think we're in violent >> but we I think we're in violent agreement except that are we agreement except that are we agreement except that are we >> I would actually argue that you don't >> I would actually argue that you don't >> I would actually argue that you don't need a financial background to need a financial background to need a financial background to understand that Bitcoin and gold are two understand that Bitcoin and gold are two understand that Bitcoin and gold are two different things you just you just need different things you just you just need different things you just you just need that basic thing which is called that basic thing which is called that basic thing which is called intelligence I'm sorry intelligence I'm sorry intelligence I'm sorry >> no no no I I'll argue I'll argue that >> no no no I I'll argue I'll argue that >> no no no I I'll argue I'll argue that you do need it because you have to have you do need it because you have to have you do need it because you have to have that to recognize the nonsense and the that to recognize the nonsense and the that to recognize the nonsense and the absolute [ __ ] Without that, you're absolute [ __ ] Without that, you're absolute [ __ ] Without that, you're just you're going to just believe just you're going to just believe just you're going to just believe whatever this joker these idiots on um whatever this joker these idiots on um whatever this joker these idiots on um CoinDesk are spouting. You believe it CoinDesk are spouting. You believe it CoinDesk are spouting. You believe it because you have no other reference. You because you have no other reference. You because you have no other reference. You don't have the framework to abstract the don't have the framework to abstract the don't have the framework to abstract the concept and figure out what it really concept and figure out what it really concept and figure out what it really is. Right? And you know, we've done this is. Right? And you know, we've done this is. Right? And you know, we've done this on IoT Coffee Talk. Yes.

  5. on IoT Coffee Talk. Yes. on IoT Coffee Talk. Yes. years ago. We've already unpacked this years ago. We've already unpacked this years ago. We've already unpacked this thing. And I mean, just like IoT, thing. And I mean, just like IoT, thing. And I mean, just like IoT, apparently, we're going to unpack the apparently, we're going to unpack the apparently, we're going to unpack the whole freaking thing again. whole freaking thing again. whole freaking thing again. You know, Leonard sounds just like You know, Leonard sounds just like You know, Leonard sounds just like Warren Buffett in 1999 Warren Buffett in 1999 Warren Buffett in 1999 during the dot race where he's like, I during the dot race where he's like, I during the dot race where he's like, I don't understand or believe in any of don't understand or believe in any of don't understand or believe in any of this stuff, so I'm not investing in any this stuff, so I'm not investing in any this stuff, so I'm not investing in any of it. of it. of it. >> No, I'm the total opposite. I know what >> No, I'm the total opposite. I know what >> No, I'm the total opposite. I know what it is. I know what it is and I don't it is. I know what it is and I don't it is. I know what it is and I don't invest in it because I choose not to invest in it because I choose not to invest in it because I choose not to invest in it. invest in it. invest in it. >> Total opposite. Rob, >> Total opposite. Rob, >> Total opposite. Rob, >> he said actually what this stuff is. >> he said actually what this stuff is. >> he said actually what this stuff is. >> Yeah. Buffett said actually things that >> Yeah. Buffett said actually things that >> Yeah. Buffett said actually things that that would that actually explain that he that would that actually explain that he that would that actually explain that he totally understand what it is because he totally understand what it is because he totally understand what it is because he said give me what he said 1% of 5% of said give me what he said 1% of 5% of said give me what he said 1% of 5% of all farming in the US and I cut you a all farming in the US and I cut you a all farming in the US and I cut you a check of 50 billion immediately because check of 50 billion immediately because check of 50 billion immediately because if you buy some tangible asset this is if you buy some tangible asset this is if you buy some tangible asset this is why I said you don't need much financial why I said you don't need much financial why I said you don't need much financial understanding to realize that gold is understanding to realize that gold is understanding to realize that gold is something I can touch and that is rare something I can touch and that is rare something I can touch and that is rare so I can understand that this has value so I can understand that this has value so I can understand that this has value interestingly interestingly interestingly as opposed to a digital thing that I as opposed to a digital thing that I as opposed to a digital thing that I can't touch. I know anybody can create can't touch. I know anybody can create can't touch. I know anybody can create with math and can add to it. So it with math and can add to it. So it with math and can add to it. So it should be quite logical to understand should be quite logical to understand should be quite logical to understand that these things are very different. So that these things are very different. So that these things are very different. So if you want to put your life saving on if you want to put your life saving on if you want to put your life saving on it, you might want to understand how it, you might want to understand how it, you might want to understand how they work. And to your point Z, you they work. And to your point Z, you they work. And to your point Z, you might realize that, oh, I need to might realize that, oh, I need to might realize that, oh, I need to understand finances to be able to understand finances to be able to understand finances to be able to understand that stuff. But I'm saying understand that stuff. But I'm saying understand that stuff. But I'm saying that the intuitive reaction if you have that the intuitive reaction if you have that the intuitive reaction if you have the minimum critical thinking to Bitcoin

  6. the minimum critical thinking to Bitcoin the minimum critical thinking to Bitcoin versus gold should be eh it's not the versus gold should be eh it's not the versus gold should be eh it's not the same. same. same. >> Well, you just basically excluded about >> Well, you just basically excluded about >> Well, you just basically excluded about 90% of the population of the earth. 90% of the population of the earth. 90% of the population of the earth. Dude, Dude, Dude, >> I think that I think 99 I think I mean >> I think that I think 99 I think I mean >> I think that I think 99 I think I mean >> you think that 10% of the entire >> you think that 10% of the entire >> you think that 10% of the entire population of the planet getting it is population of the planet getting it is population of the planet getting it is good enough. I think you're wrong. good enough. I think you're wrong. good enough. I think you're wrong. >> No. No. Well, in my 20s, in my 20s, I >> No. No. Well, in my 20s, in my 20s, I >> No. No. Well, in my 20s, in my 20s, I thought there were 80% of idiots. Then I thought there were 80% of idiots. Then I thought there were 80% of idiots. Then I went to 90 95. I I don't remember which went to 90 95. I I don't remember which went to 90 95. I I don't remember which point I am. point I am. point I am. >> You watch Idiocracy and then went to >> You watch Idiocracy and then went to >> You watch Idiocracy and then went to >> No, I'm 99.999. I don't know where I >> No, I'm 99.999. I don't know where I >> No, I'm 99.999. I don't know where I stop with the point of decimal nowadays. stop with the point of decimal nowadays. stop with the point of decimal nowadays. So, I agree with you. Especially when I So, I agree with you. Especially when I So, I agree with you. Especially when I see all this stuff about Bacon and I see all this stuff about Bacon and I see all this stuff about Bacon and I agree with you. It's just crazy. agree with you. It's just crazy. agree with you. It's just crazy. >> So, when it goes down, everyone and >> So, when it goes down, everyone and >> So, when it goes down, everyone and everyone is freaking out. I just think everyone is freaking out. I just think everyone is freaking out. I just think it's funny, you know? It's just it's funny, you know? It's just it's funny, you know? It's just entertaining for me. I think it's just entertaining for me. I think it's just entertaining for me.

But the nail in post on that, Leonard. But the nail in post on that, Leonard. But the nail in the coffin of Bitcoin is going to be the coffin of Bitcoin is going to be the coffin of Bitcoin is going to be quantum computing quantum computing quantum computing because once we have quantum computing, because once we have quantum computing, because once we have quantum computing, we can crap the crypto and we can go we can crap the crypto and we can go we can crap the crypto and we can go after all those lost Bitcoin and get after all those lost Bitcoin and get after all those lost Bitcoin and get them and make the whole system collapse them and make the whole system collapse them and make the whole system collapse totally. totally. totally. >> Oh yeah. Wonderful. Sounds like a plan. >> Yeah. All I know is that somehow a >> Yeah. All I know is that somehow a centipede got into our house. I have no centipede got into our house.

I mean, was it enough to keep the company afloat or enough to keep the company afloat or enough to keep the company afloat or >> I I don't remember those details, but I >> I I don't remember those details, but I >> I I don't remember those details, but I don't I don't think so. I actually don't don't I don't think so. I actually don't don't I don't think so. I actually don't think that the Microsoft deal with CIA think that the Microsoft deal with CIA think that the Microsoft deal with CIA was any of the problem that Caiase was any of the problem that Caiase was any of the problem that Caiase faced. faced. faced. I don't think that was I mean that was I don't think that was I mean that was I don't think that was I mean that was one of the hiccups maybe and one of the one of the hiccups maybe and one of the one of the hiccups maybe and one of the not so smart decision on how the deal not so smart decision on how the deal not so smart decision on how the deal was structured was structured was structured >> but but there were more profound >> but but there were more profound >> but but there were more profound problems problems problems uh with with cybase go it was kind of uh with with cybase go it was kind of uh with with cybase go it was kind of the the the >> 80ist approach and obsession into wall >> 80ist approach and obsession into wall >> 80ist approach and obsession into wall street and and not understanding what street and and not understanding what street and and not understanding what Oracle go to market was which was you Oracle go to market was which was you Oracle go to market was which was you know Oracle will just you know cover the know Oracle will just you know cover the know Oracle will just you know cover the whole terrain whole terrain whole terrain >> and we figure out the tech before and we >> and we figure out the tech before and we >> and we figure out the tech before and we were no no you need a smart tech.

  9. were no no you need a smart tech. were no no you need a smart tech. Isn't that interesting? If you think of Isn't that interesting? If you think of Isn't that interesting? If you think of that time frame, if Microsoft had not that time frame, if Microsoft had not that time frame, if Microsoft had not licensed CIA in order to create SQL licensed CIA in order to create SQL licensed CIA in order to create SQL Server, Server, Server, all the only database Microsoft would all the only database Microsoft would all the only database Microsoft would have had was Access on the desktop, you have had was Access on the desktop, you have had was Access on the desktop, you know, competing with, you know, an old know, competing with, you know, an old know, competing with, you know, an old generation of when desktop databases generation of when desktop databases generation of when desktop databases ruled the world like dbase, you know, ruled the world like dbase, you know, ruled the world like dbase, you know, Fox Pro and all that. Um, I remember Fox Pro and all that. Um, I remember Fox Pro and all that. Um, I remember reading this whole deal, you know, reading this whole deal, you know, reading this whole deal, you know, internally just, you know, from Bill internally just, you know, from Bill internally just, you know, from Bill Gates when he was like looking at Gates when he was like looking at Gates when he was like looking at different markets, uh, early on, uh, and different markets, uh, early on, uh, and different markets, uh, early on, uh, and how he's like, and we need to conquer how he's like, and we need to conquer how he's like, and we need to conquer all of these, you know, spreadsheets, all of these, you know, spreadsheets, all of these, you know, spreadsheets, word processing, you know, the whole word processing, you know, the whole word processing, you know, the whole deal with through either through deal with through either through deal with through either through acquisition, building our own stuff or acquisition, building our own stuff or acquisition, building our own stuff or whatever, or licensing. whatever, or licensing. whatever, or licensing. And he talked about how he how important And he talked about how he how important And he talked about how he how important databases were. You know, this is he was databases were. You know, this is he was databases were. You know, this is he was writing this stuff like in the late 80s writing this stuff like in the late 80s writing this stuff like in the late 80s um you know early 90s um you know early 90s um you know early 90s >> and that analyszis was right. What was >> and that analyszis was right. What was >> and that analyszis was right. What was wrong with access is that it came at the wrong with access is that it came at the wrong with access is that it came at the point where there was already a point where there was already a point where there was already a transition between personal databases transition between personal databases transition between personal databases like DB3 on PCs towards shared databases like DB3 on PCs towards shared databases like DB3 on PCs towards shared databases and access sucked at sharing data. I and access sucked at sharing data. I and access sucked at sharing data. I tried to build the system. No, I I tried tried to build the system. No, I I tried tried to build the system. No, I I tried to build a CRM system for Microsoft to build a CRM system for Microsoft to build a CRM system for Microsoft France because at that time the the France because at that time the the France because at that time the the large account uh uh team was led by a large account uh uh team was led by a large account uh uh team was led by a former employee of the company I work former employee of the company I work former employee of the company I work for. So he contracted say help us build for. So he contracted say help us build for. So he contracted say help us build the mini CRM. So we tried to build this

  10. the mini CRM. So we tried to build this the mini CRM. So we tried to build this access system with 10 or 12 sales people access system with 10 or 12 sales people access system with 10 or 12 sales people around it and it was a nightmare because around it and it was a nightmare because around it and it was a nightmare because access was not designed for concurrency. access was not designed for concurrency. access was not designed for concurrency. So I think the transition to the SQL So I think the transition to the SQL So I think the transition to the SQL server and the Oracle happened because server and the Oracle happened because server and the Oracle happened because at that time it was too late. The dbase at that time it was too late. The dbase at that time it was too late. The dbase tree was already covering everything but tree was already covering everything but tree was already covering everything but the answer was not another PCcentric the answer was not another PCcentric the answer was not another PCcentric database. It was a concurrent database database. It was a concurrent database database. It was a concurrent database that you needed at that time. that you needed at that time. that you needed at that time. >> Yeah. Someone had a really great idea >> Yeah. Someone had a really great idea >> Yeah. Someone had a really great idea and said that SharePoint would solve all and said that SharePoint would solve all and said that SharePoint would solve all of the database sharing. That did not of the database sharing. That did not of the database sharing. That did not work out either. work out either. work out either. >> Oh yeah. You remember the structured >> Oh yeah. You remember the structured >> Oh yeah. You remember the structured data versus nonstructured data. But but data versus nonstructured data. But but data versus nonstructured data. But but going back to a discussion we had about going back to a discussion we had about going back to a discussion we had about Oracle two or three episodes ago, they Oracle two or three episodes ago, they Oracle two or three episodes ago, they were right because in the context of AI were right because in the context of AI were right because in the context of AI unstructured document like text are much unstructured document like text are much unstructured document like text are much more effective that relational database more effective that relational database more effective that relational database data which GI does not understand at data which GI does not understand at data which GI does not understand at all. So it's a total irony because I all. So it's a total irony because I all. So it's a total irony because I agree with that SharePoint totally agree with that SharePoint totally agree with that SharePoint totally sucks. But if you look at the engines of sucks. But if you look at the engines of sucks. But if you look at the engines of AI today, you'd better point them to a AI today, you'd better point them to a AI today, you'd better point them to a SharePoint than to a restaurant SharePoint than to a restaurant SharePoint than to a restaurant database. Oh, don't don't even get me database. Oh, don't don't even get me database. Oh, don't don't even get me >> much much much more value.

What a I mean, definition of a shitow. What a I mean, definition of a shitow. What a I mean, definition of a shitow. And so what's really hilarious is when And so what's really hilarious is when And so what's really hilarious is when everyone talks about, hey, we're going everyone talks about, hey, we're going everyone talks about, hey, we're going to train these models on our corporate to train these models on our corporate to train these models on our corporate knowledge instead of good luck. And you knowledge instead of good luck. And you knowledge instead of good luck. And you know, it's funny because that's becoming know, it's funny because that's becoming know, it's funny because that's becoming increasingly a recognition increasingly a recognition increasingly a recognition uh amongst a lot of conversations I'm uh amongst a lot of conversations I'm uh amongst a lot of conversations I'm having lately and everybody needs to now having lately and everybody needs to now having lately and everybody needs to now uh you know focus on the fundamentals. uh you know focus on the fundamentals. uh you know focus on the fundamentals. It's not about the AI tools and all this It's not about the AI tools and all this It's not about the AI tools and all this other crap. Those things will get other crap. Those things will get other crap. Those things will get adopted much later and you're going to adopted much later and you're going to adopted much later and you're going to see them kind of trickle in where they see them kind of trickle in where they see them kind of trickle in where they make sense. They're going to be isolated make sense. They're going to be isolated make sense. They're going to be isolated initially and then when they've when initially and then when they've when initially and then when they've when people figure out how to implement this people figure out how to implement this people figure out how to implement this crap scalably and safely which they crap scalably and safely which they crap scalably and safely which they haven't by the way and you know then haven't by the way and you know then haven't by the way and you know then you're going to start to see AI become you're going to start to see AI become you're going to start to see AI become sort of that fabric or the mainstream uh sort of that fabric or the mainstream uh sort of that fabric or the mainstream uh adopted technology but you it's going to adopted technology but you it's going to adopted technology but you it's going to be invisible. Do you know what I'm be invisible. Do you know what I'm be invisible. Do you know what I'm saying? It's just going to be like a you saying? It's just going to be like a you saying?

What I do in my everyday job as a, you know, in my everyday job as a, you know, in my everyday job as a, you know, product marketing ops, it's getting product marketing ops, it's getting product marketing ops, it's getting better is I have a set of reference better is I have a set of reference better is I have a set of reference documents that create the messaging documents that create the messaging documents that create the messaging stack. And every time we build a new stack. And every time we build a new stack.

Vibe coding. Have you noticed that Vibe coding. Have you noticed that Vibe coding. Have you noticed that people are like reversing their talk people are like reversing their talk people are like reversing their talk track around vibe coding where you have track around vibe coding where you have track around vibe coding where you have all these bozos telling everyone you can all these bozos telling everyone you can all these bozos telling everyone you can vibe code and get rid of all your vibe code and get rid of all your vibe code and get rid of all your developers? Now everyone's shifting back developers? Now everyone's shifting back developers? Now everyone's shifting back toward hey um you know we need what is toward hey um you know we need what is toward hey um you know we need what is it? Vibe code cleaners.

  13. it? Vibe code cleaners. it? Vibe code cleaners. Vibe code cleaners. So remember, we came Vibe code cleaners. So remember, we came Vibe code cleaners. So remember, we came up with the three new careers for AI, up with the three new careers for AI, up with the three new careers for AI, >> you know, AI janitor, AI plumber, and >> you know, AI janitor, AI plumber, and >> you know, AI janitor, AI plumber, and the AI babysitter.

So, we need somebody who of developers. So, we need somebody who of developers. So, we need somebody who has 10 years of vibe coding, you know, has 10 years of vibe coding, you know, has 10 years of vibe coding, you know, cleaning, whatever the hell that means. cleaning, whatever the hell that means. cleaning, whatever the hell that means. >> But, but Rob, you do you you use >> But, but Rob, you do you you use >> But, but Rob, you do you you use >> hilarious >> hilarious >> hilarious >> you use AI a lot to code, right? >> you use AI a lot to code, right? >> you use AI a lot to code, right? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. So tell me one thing because one >> Yeah. So tell me one thing because one >> Yeah. So tell me one thing because one thing that I'm struggling with a lot is thing that I'm struggling with a lot is thing that I'm struggling with a lot is the the problem I think with V coding is the the problem I think with V coding is the the problem I think with V coding is that you do your prompting your that you do your prompting your that you do your prompting your description it generates the whole code description it generates the whole code description it generates the whole code and then you say oh you know in this and then you say oh you know in this and then you say oh you know in this function I want you to change that it function I want you to change that it function I want you to change that it sucks at that because it regenerates sucks at that because it regenerates sucks at that because it regenerates everything all the time everything all the time everything all the time >> it starts all over >> it starts all over >> it starts all over >> yeah that's the core problem we have to >> yeah that's the core problem we have to >> yeah that's the core problem we have to solve with that because it is solve with that because it is solve with that because it is exceptional for simple things there's a exceptional for simple things there's a exceptional for simple things there's a ton of things that I do nowadays where I ton of things that I do nowadays where I ton of things that I do nowadays where I give you a stupid example I was looking give you a stupid example I was looking give you a stupid example I was looking at the QR code generation for YouTube at the QR code generation for YouTube at the QR code generation for YouTube channels and if you want to generate QR channels and if you want to generate QR channels and if you want to generate QR code you can go on on the web and find a code you can go on on the web and find a code you can go on on the web and find a website but this website is going to website but this website is going to website but this website is going to bombard you with ad ask you to create an bombard you with ad ask you to create an bombard you with ad ask you to create an account try to say you [ __ ] account try to say you [ __ ] account try to say you [ __ ] >> I to I took code wrote a prompt I have a >> I to I took code wrote a prompt I have a >> I to I took code wrote a prompt I have a piece of code that does it for me.

Yeah, these modules it sucks at that. Yeah, these modules it sucks at that. Yeah, you know the reason like when I was I you know the reason like when I was I you know the reason like when I was I don't know a couple few months ago when don't know a couple few months ago when don't know a couple few months ago when I was I was using claude and I wanted to I was I was using claude and I wanted to I was I was using claude and I wanted to build an agentic framework you know build an agentic framework you know build an agentic framework you know where you'd have a supervisor and where you'd have a supervisor and where you'd have a supervisor and >> yeah and the reason over the course of >> yeah and the reason over the course of >> yeah and the reason over the course of just you it was just a day but you know just you it was just a day but you know just you it was just a day but you know it was one day go yeah I've already it was one day go yeah I've already it was one day go yeah I've already built three versions and they keep built three versions and they keep built three versions and they keep getting better and better of this aente getting better and better of this aente getting better and better of this aente framework but the other reason why framework but the other reason why framework but the other reason why there's three versions is cuz when I there's three versions is cuz when I there's three versions is cuz when I needed to change course and things and needed to change course and things and needed to change course and things and update it it had to start all over again update it it had to start all over again update it it had to start all over again >> totally >> totally >> totally >> and you're telling it leave everything >> and you're telling it leave everything >> and you're telling it leave everything the same except blah blah blah blah blah the same except blah blah blah blah blah the same except blah blah blah blah blah you know but it regenerates the whole you know but it regenerates the whole you know but it regenerates the whole thing and then you thing and then you thing and then you >> and it doesn't work very well >> and it doesn't work very well >> and it doesn't work very well >> as it was less sophisticated you had to >> as it was less sophisticated you had to >> as it was less sophisticated you had to understand where the classes were and understand where the classes were and understand where the classes were and where and so I'm like manually putting where and so I'm like manually putting where and so I'm like manually putting those into Visual Studio and putting those into Visual Studio and putting those into Visual Studio and putting them the right place it keeps getting them the right place it keeps getting them the right place it keeps getting better though better though better though >> um but uh and again I don't vibe code I >> um but uh and again I don't vibe code I >> um but uh and again I don't vibe code I know you know I'm guiding it really know you know I'm guiding it really know you know I'm guiding it really specifically and telling it what tech to specifically and telling it what tech to specifically and telling it what tech to use and how to do things at a really use and how to do things at a really use and how to do things at a really discreet level um so that it's discreet level um so that it's discreet level um so that it's maintainable, right?

What the other here is, oh 20% is 20%. What the other here is, oh 20% is 20%. What the other here is, oh 20% is generated by AI which means I can get generated by AI which means I can get generated by AI which means I can get rid of 20% of my programmers and I'm rid of 20% of my programmers and I'm rid of 20% of my programmers and I'm going to do that as well.

I would be interested to uh because you follow interested to uh because you follow interested to uh because you follow probably that better than others Leonard probably that better than others Leonard probably that better than others Leonard but I I have seen signs so I don't have but I I have seen signs so I don't have but I I have seen signs so I don't have the real you know complete evidence but the real you know complete evidence but the real you know complete evidence but I have seen signs that actually those I have seen signs that actually those I have seen signs that actually those countries where we used to outsource countries where we used to outsource countries where we used to outsource code development is now starting to lose code development is now starting to lose code development is now starting to lose businesses because they are replaced by businesses because they are replaced by businesses because they are replaced by vibe coding because you'd rather have vibe coding because you'd rather have vibe coding because you'd rather have somebody instead of outsourcing your somebody instead of outsourcing your somebody instead of outsourcing your development in India or in Vietnam you development in India or in Vietnam you development in India or in Vietnam you now say hey I'm going to keep an now say hey I'm going to keep an now say hey I'm going to keep an engineer in the US but he's going to engineer in the US but he's going to engineer in the US but he's going to vibe code and I don't need to use those vibe code and I don't need to use those vibe code and I don't need to use those guys anymore. So it might touch the law guys anymore. So it might touch the law guys anymore. So it might touch the law the the outsourcing developers ecosystem the the outsourcing developers ecosystem the the outsourcing developers ecosystem as well in a quite dramatic way and as well in a quite dramatic way and as well in a quite dramatic way and again I've only seen a couple of signs again I've only seen a couple of signs again I've only seen a couple of signs of that. I don't see evidence but I of that. I don't see evidence but I of that. I don't see evidence but I think that's an interesting area to think that's an interesting area to think that's an interesting area to watch because deep can impact those watch because deep can impact those watch because deep can impact those outsourcing services significantly outsourcing services significantly outsourcing services significantly >> but another another way of looking at is >> but another another way of looking at is >> but another another way of looking at is uh vibe coding and um genai coding tools uh vibe coding and um genai coding tools uh vibe coding and um genai coding tools uh enable that and so you know here's uh enable that and so you know here's uh enable that and so you know here's the thing you still have to have the the thing you still have to have the the thing you still have to have the person you have to have competency and person you have to have competency and person you have to have competency and that's going to be missing from anyone that's going to be missing from anyone that's going to be missing from anyone who is not a developer right And um who is not a developer right And um who is not a developer right And um irregardless of whether irregardless of whether irregardless of whether >> what >> what >> what >> did you say?
