(4/4) Don't get me wrong–blockchain tech is still being built, DeFi still exists. But the attention economy moved on completely. Makes you wonder what's cooking in labs right now that'll make "large language models" sound ancient by 2026. The cycle never stops.

(3/4) Now those same founders are building AI chatbots and talking about "agentic workflows". The rebrand is brutal: "HODL" became "prompt engineering". "To the moon" became "AGI by 2027". "Web3 native" became "AI-first". Even the grifters pivoted seamlessly.

(2/4) Just 18 months ago, every other LinkedIn post was about "DeFi protocols", "NFT marketplaces", and "tokenomics". Remember when every startup was pivoting to DAOs and raising rounds for "play-to-earn" games? Smart contracts were going to revolutionize everything.

This is another useful tip💡
I usually open a draft MR and leave it there until the next day. Then, I review it by myself (acting as “another me”) and, once everything LGTM, I remove the draft status and ask someone to actually perform the review.

Totally agree—LLMs often inflate simple ideas into verbose text, only to summarize it back. Great point that the real issue isn’t the tools, but our tendency to reward wordiness over clarity. Appreciate you naming this pattern so clearly.

@shadcn.com Shadcn UI is a great real-world example of the composition pattern in action.

It gives you full control over layout using small, focused components — no prop overload.

Have you tried this approach?

@proton.me is nailing it. Privacy-first with Swiss jurisdiction, expanding from email to VPN, storage, Pass, and now 2FA. Building a real alternative to Big Tech surveillance while actually protecting user data.

Not surprised. Dropbox Passwords had low adoption and faced tough competition from established players like 1Password and Bitwarden. Most users probably didn't even know it existed.

If switching from a div to a button breaks your styling — that’s a red flag.

With Tailwind, you’re covered: button styles are reset by default, so you can style it freely without weird browser defaults.

Semantic HTML means less CSS override, better UX.
