Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S7 E22: Paul McCarthy, SnapFix

Paul McCarthy grew up in Cork, Ireland, and went to school there. He lives around the corner from the sea, and likes to dip in now again - literally, swim in the ocean. He calls it a great shock to the system, but ensured that I know he doesn't spend a full hour in the water.

Five years ago, Paul was fed up with the archaic ways that properties were managing their safety, maintenance and work orders manually, through platforms like WhatsApp. He set out to build the simplest way to manage your hotel, facilities and team - using photos.

This is the creation story of SnapFix.

The Stack Overflow Podcast - The AI that writes music from text

It’s not just you: We all need subtitles now.

Google introduces MusicLM, a model that generates music from text. The examples are pretty-mind blowing and raise big questions about licensing and copyrights for non-AI creators.

Taking the uncanny valley to a new low? Nvidia’s streaming software now includes a feature that deepfakes eye contact.

Beware the potentially dangerous intersection of AI and stan Twitter.

Thanks to Siavash Kayal, a fan of the show and data engineer at Cleo, who sent along a great list of open-source data engineering projects folks can work on.

Today we’re shouting out Stellar Question badge winner Paragon for asking how to Open two instances of a file in a single Visual Studio session.

Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S7 Bonus: Kyle Tut, Piñata

Kyle Tut started out his life wanting to be a car mechanic. His Mom affirmed his aspirations, but gave him the advice to make sure he owned the mechanic shop. He's taken interesting paths through the auto world, marketing, and eventually, into the tech world. Outside of tech, he is originally from North Dakota but now lives in Nebraska, and enjoys the practicality of the way people think in the Midwest.

Kyle knew that storing data on the blockchain was expensive. At the same time, it wasn't fast, nor was it stable. He and his co-founder set out to build an unbelievably fast content delivery network, easily accessible across the world.

This is the creation story of Piñata.
