Was absolutely mind-blown and inspired by this episode of Lenny's Newsletter with Amjad Masad!! My main takeaway: Replit can not only generate code but create a whole app based on my prompt. Backend, database, hosting and everything. I'll definitely use this to give some more tangible shape to ideas locked up in my brain. Get them out there, share, discuss, rip them apart and put them back together. I'm seriously hoping Replit will get good at working with existing projects too! Got a couple passion projects that I'd like to plug in and get some thoughts on.

Have you met Hum’s President and Co-founder, Dustin Smith? Dustin oversees Hum’s product vision, strategy, and development, and he’s the mastermind behind Hum’s AI solutions. (He also moonlights as a marketing pro, sales wizard, and client success champion. A real multi-hyphenate, with a deep passion for using data to solve big challenges.) He’s a master of running up steep mountains – literally and figuratively. When he’s not talking about big ideas or thinking about the latest in AI for Hum, he’s usually talking about big ideas or thinking about the latest in AI for fun. 👨🏻💻 How he got started: “My earliest exposure to building things was Brio trains, K-NEX, and an Erector Set. I’d spend hours in my room building elaborate landscapes and machines.” His job in 3 emojis: 💡🛠️🤝 What he 💜’s most about Hum: “I once met a guy who was moving to Idaho: ‘There’s enough mountains and trails there to last me the rest of my life.’ I feel that way about Hum. There’s enough interesting problems and delightful people to solve them with to last me the rest of my career.” 😎 People might be surprised to know that: “I give tech support to my family members, but occasionally extract a tribute. Back in the mailing DVD days, I cued up 7 consecutive Leprechaun movies in her Netflix queue. My mother was puzzled when the 'wrong DVD' continued to arrive in the mail (she got it after number 3 or 4!) I also set up my sister’s first iPhone, including her school email, just before she went to college. She became a huge iPhone user, including emails to professors, unknowingly signing off as 'Turd Ferguson'. My other sister got a dating profile on Christian Mingle where among limited information, she was noted as a 'diligent chimney sweep', and to her credit attracted serious traffic (without a single photo!)." 💪 What he’s most proud of: “Startups are hard. I’m proud of the people at Hum who are committed to building something improbable, suffering together through the lowest lows, cinematically high-fiving during the highest highs, and exchanging GIFs through the vicissitudes in between.” -- #remotework #remoteteam
