In 2015 I slept outside for 4 days to cop one of the 7 pairs of Pirate Blacks in Switzerland. In 2023 I built the systems and launched them globally. Truly full circle, I would have never thought. The past 3 days have been so unbelievably crazy, need time to processes.

Hey @stockx , I’m a 21 year old Software Engineering intern. I just protected a development build of my project with multi factor authentication by implementing RFC6238 - and I think you should too! Need help? My DMs are open 👍🏼

Recently I was trying to find a used BMW but every time I checked and saw a good one - it was gone by the time I could call. So I wrote a bot that would check all BMW dealerships in Germany every 10 minutes, and then ping me on new cars / price changes. Bot dev forever

I think StockX just did a really good job at creating a direct comparison highlighting the absurd hyper inflated pricing of an NFT - a digital token saying you own a shoe is worth more than actually… owning the shoe. 😂

I don’t really understand why LV decided to launch these themselves when they don’t have experience with hype launches. Having an ecom website and slapping a waiting room infront of it is not good enough in 2022

This week sucked a lot. But I’m thankful I got to spend the time working with yeezy that I did - easily the best year of my professional career so far. I’m still wearing my Yeezys and am still listening to Ye’s music. Time to focus on tech and build something new.
