I'm vibe coding something for the first time and it truly feels magical

(I have no idea if if will perform as expected / have security issues / be remotely shippable, but hey! it's fun)

a thousand percent — and I find this is one of the best parts about running your own company. You have complete freedom to act ethically and decently, and you aren’t forced to make or defend someone else’s decisions or ways of doing things

What a glorious day and location for your video! 😍

I like John Mackey’s Conscious Capitalism take on this — he advocates for maximizing “stakeholder value,” which includes investors, employees, customers, community, and more.

(Of course he then sold to Amazon, which hardly espouses the same values, so 🤷‍♀️. But it’s still a nice idea.)
