Soundbites

“Earlier this year, well just about like four weeks ago,
Ireleased MikeOSS which went viral.“

“The first thing that I thought when I looked at Harvey and
Legora was ‘What? This is it?‘ Like I was genuinely shocked. So
this is worth eleven billion and five point billion respectively?
That was my first thought. My second thought was that okay, I can
probably vibe code this in two weeks.“
