Not bad for a Chess Nerd ♟️

Tomorrow night, I will be fighting. Yes, it’s a real boxing match. The caption on instagram would have you believe it’s “Chess nerd, computer geek” vs “6’7” former D1 athlete”. Couldn’t be further from the truth.

This is gonna be epic

Loom's free tier sucks now so I'm building video recording into the Gauntlet Portal tonight. Going live 9 PM ET with just a PRD and some scaffolding. Gonna be a long one. Building in public, AI-first methodology, no script. Join if you want to see how building with AI actually…
