caught up with a friend who’s “getting as far away from tech as possible” and looking at acquiring a torch business, gas station, or metal roofing company.

“…I’m terrified of ai”

First real account of someone I know actioning on ai like that.

When you say torch do you mean flashlights? Or like tiki torches? Or torches used for secret rituals? Or none of the above?

Building @basketdotfarm on @base. Ethereum is not an altcoin, it's a buildcoin.

Software engineer, music maker, creator.

Possibly a dog irl

I wouldn’t give in to that too much.

Hindsight is 20/20 and I’ve always felt a couple years earlier woulda been great, especially in tech.

What ya working on?

I wish that was me. Had I been in tech like 2 years earlier I would have been set.

I have several SV friends who peaced out to go farm/ranch/spend time with their families. It makes me uncomfortable.

When you say torch business

All I can think of is

import torch

metal roofing company is based. get to help families or businesses with a fresh roof

Why? How does going far away from tech help reduce or alleviate the fear?

That's pretty impressive and scary at the same time
