#ChatGPTAtlas first 20min impression
- It's fast, Chromium fast
- I miss Apple Passkey in Safari
- Asked agent mode to book a room on Agoda with permission to use Agoda with my logged in account. But nothing happened in the end.

I wonder what did I miss. Try again tomorrow. It's 3am & I'm excited!

As they said, if you tell a lie enough times, it eventually becomes the truth

Some founders build solo. Some stare at an idea for months, stuck.

I’ve been both.

Learned through experience, to build fast means to scope it tight — only what matters for validation or revenue generating

I “watch” tonnes of movies while I work. There’s something about having the movie as the background noise.

Good thing about this is, I don’t remember half of the movie I had “watched”, and I can always watch them again — in the background. And every time, there’s something new about it

26 Years in Code: A Personal Reflection on How Software — and the Role of the Coder — Has Changed

I’ve spent the last 26 years building software — from writing raw code into the night, to managing teams, to watching AI rewrite the rules of development.

The tools change. The essence remains: creation, clarity, contribution.

#FutureOfWork

Marshal Yung @marshalyung.bsky.social · Jun 13

Looking ahead: The coder’s role is transforming — less about typing, more about thinking clearly and asking the right questions.

Years 20+: AI enters the room. Software almost builds itself. You’re guiding, not grinding.

#AIInTech #AIDevelopment

Marshal Yung @marshalyung.bsky.social · Jun 13

Years 16–20: Coding becomes less about speed, more about clarity. Your value shifts to decisions, not keystrokes.

#DevJourney #TechReflection

Marshal Yung @marshalyung.bsky.social · Jun 13

Years 11–15: The next generation arrives. They move faster. But you now see systems, not just syntax.

#DevJourney #TechReflection

Marshal Yung @marshalyung.bsky.social · Jun 13

Years 6–10: You lead teams, still build. You start translating between worlds — business and tech.

Years 0–5: Pure creation. Long hours, deep focus. Code was craft, and we were craftsmen.

Liquid Glass looks beautiful, then it struck me why it looked kind of familiar.

Did KDE used to look something like that too?

Interestingly strange….

After 1 week of TailwindCSS, I couldn’t go back to Bootstrap which I had been using for over 10 years.

I think my styling thought process got stuck with Tailwind

Thank you and goodbye @vscode.dev

Hello @zed.dev
It’s sooo…fast and smooth

Marshal Yung @marshalyung.bsky.social · May 5

Had so much fun exploring possibilities with #tailwind, I almost forgotten to move forward with my #development.

Yes, I know I’m late into TailwindCSS. Had been with #bootstrap for the longest time

Is it able to monitor other competitive posts? Sort of like Google Alerts built into your social media scheduler

Nah....after some doodling, I've decided not to drop it. Move forward with fingers crossed.

Running a survey here for some insights.
