DevWorld 2026: My first time in Amsterdam, and what two days of real engineering conversations taught me

About two weeks ago, I landed in Amsterdam for the first time. Not just to visit, though the city deserved every extra day I gave it, but to attend DevWorld Conference 2026.

In SpaceX’s IPO, Elon Musk is a risk factor

The SpaceX IPO is here, and it's more than just an historic public offering that could make Elon Musk the world's first trillionaire. It also reveals more ways in which Elon Musk's companies interact and overlap with each other, shuffling money around in ways that are often difficult to keep track of. This is evident in ways that are both obvious and less so. A CTRL-F search for "Tesla" yields 87 results, xAI is mentioned 356 times, and X 267 times. Even the Boring Company (7 times) and Neurali
