    Exclusive videos every week about tech, behind the scenes of how I make videos and building stuff on the internet
    All we hear about today is big tech companies worth trillions of dollars that make big moves and change the world, so much so that many people that is what tech is. But there's a whole other side of tech companies that most people don't even know about, with unique stories that break the mold of the traditional Silicon Valley model, and they are changing the way new tech companies are built. From Midjourney's and David Holz's crazy wild ride, to the new wave of indie hackers
    🖖 Hey! I'm Enrico and on this channel I go behind the scenes of the design, psychology and stories behind tech and making stuff on the internet. I'm a tech Product Manager, builder of digital stuff, UA-cam aficionado (and overall meme connoisseur). I am also a rare Italian who doesn’t know how to cook.

    My company is like the one featured in this video. There are three of us. Revenue just passed $500k per month. Anyway, I will stop giving Enrico a hard time about his follow-up Google video. I like his content a LOT and he’s right when he says the landscape changed right after that video came out. I have no idea if you’ll see this or not, Enrico, but thanks for another great video.

    As a motion designer I really appreciate an amount of work Enrico (or his team) put into graphics. I see a lot of elements people will not notice (for example frame transition at 00:25 which not easy to make, no an one click solution at least). And all this apart of a really engaging and interesting content. Well done. Kudo to the author and the team (if he has one).

    I think Open Source is also a very interesting tech space, A perfect storm is brewing in the United States. Inflation, bank collapse, severe drought in the agricultural belt, recession, food shortages, diesel fuel and heating oil shortages, baby formula shortages, available automobile shortages and prices, the price of living place. It's all coming together and it could lead to a real disaster towards the end of this year (or sooner). With inflation currently at about 6%, my primary concern is how to maximize my savings/retirement fund of about $300k which has been sitting duck since forever with zero to no gains.

    Tech VCs look for explosive growth because they know at least 9/10 of their investments will fail and be a total loss. If they had 9 losses, and one "winner" with only slow, modest growth, then the VC would go bankrupt. It's not because VCs are crazy or maniacally greedy. It's just a novel, and relatively new investment strategy that dramatically increases the overall amount of "breakthrough" companies and ideas to emerge, where they wouldn't under more traditional investment strategies.

    Often there comes a moment when you realize the content creator you've been watching happily until now is actually clueless or has some major agenda. Usually when they happen to address topics you have some knowledge about. This was this moment for me. Portraying Midjourney, company funded upon literally one of the biggest and most brazen thefts in human history ("one of", because that is the case with all of the big generative models) as "bootstraped" and glorifying their model... without even noting the illegal use of a hundred million images, which they openly admit to... is such an appalling thing to do, that I simply cannot treat any of Enrico's videos as made in good faith. So I won't anymore.

    While midjourney and the people have done something great, and I appreciate LeapMotion (have worked with it in a project) and it's genius, one should mention the dark side of midjourney at least: money made with data and art taken (if not stolen) from non-consenting artist under the prevalent guise of research.

    "After all, He Who Must Not Be Named (aka midjourney) did great things - terrible, yes, but great."
