And you can't like, man, the things I do, I could never do it in a big corporation because everything has to be, probably get deployed has to go through legal.

And the law can change. For example, let's say you launch this AI dubbing and there's some legal problems with lawsuits. Okay, so the law changes. There will be appeals. There will be some Supreme Court thing, whatever. And the law changes. So just by shipping it, you change society. You change the legal framework.

Yeah, VS Code. Before I used Sublime Text, I don't think it matters a lot. I think I'm very skeptical of like tools when people think it, they say it matters, right? I don't think it matters. I think... whatever tool you know very well, you can go very fast in.

Like, you know, the shortcuts, for example, IDE, you know, like I love Sublime Text because I could use like multi-cursor, you know, you search something and I could like make mass replaces in a file with the cursor thing. And VS Code doesn't really have that as well.

Yeah. It's not so good. I think, or at least I tried, but I would use that to like, uh, process data, like, um, data sets, for example, from world bank, I would just multi-cursor mass change everything. Um, But yeah, VS Code, man, I was bullied into using VS Code because Twitter would always see my screenshots of Sublime Text and say, why are you still using Sublime Text?

Like, boomer, you need to use VS Code. And I'm like, well, I'll try it. I got a new MacBook and then I never installed, like, I never copied the old MacBook. I just make it fresh, you know, like a clean, like format C, you know, Windows, like clean start. And I'm like, okay, I'll try VS Code and it's stuck, you know, but I don't really care. Like, it's not so important for me.

Dude, it was so good. You would install Windows and then after three or six months, it would start breaking and everything was like, it got slow. Then you would restart, go to DOS, format C, you would delete your hard drive and then install the Windows 95 again. It was so good times. And you would design everything like, now I'm going to install it properly.
