these blocks are mostly accidental and a result of difficult decision boundaries; there is no prohibition against reverse engineering with codex. it's getting fixed

He saw a video of how I ship so many PRs as a non-technical founder. "I hadn't even taken open source that seriously at the time. I was like, wow, if Matt's doing this, why don't I give it a shot?" 🤖 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗰𝗮𝗺𝗲 @garrytan. Morluto was the first outside PR to GStack. Garry retweeted a YC launch, Morluto spent 20 minutes insisting the founder was a bot, and reverse engineered the app to make it up to him. That became REA. 🚀 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗶𝘁'𝘀 𝗮 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁, 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗶𝗳 𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗶𝘁 𝗼𝗻𝗲 "There's so many people I've seen that they're committing to GitHub for the first time and opening PRs and opening issues because they want it to be better." 🥷 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗼𝗻𝘆𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘀 "What is big about REA isn't the code.

I built a guitar tuner that handles alternate and fully custom tunings. I knew nothing about pitch detection. So I used @reatools to break down how GuitarTuna works, then rebuilt it myself. Through this project, I learned the algorithm behind tuning, how sounds are converted into frequencies and translated into cents, and how tech like AudioWorklet works. This is the best time ever to learn by building!

AI doesn't replace you. It amplifies you. Over lunch, I discussed with my professor: know the fundamentals and where you're going, and AI multiplies you. If not, it makes you dependent. So what matters most now is agency. I don't think I'm smart. I’m just willing to spend the time and turn ideas into things. This week that meant using REA to take apart GuitarTuna and learn what's under the hood. More on what I built soon. 🎸 Best time ever to learn by building. Agency is all u need.

I was tired of how laggy and slow my Samsung TV was… so /reverse-engineer-anything went brrrrrrrrttt on Tizen. A clean launcher and home screen with no autoplay random free tv channels. @morluto created a monster.
