Innovating Today for a Secure Tomorrow.

About

A seasoned Software Engineer with over 15 years of experience, my journey in the tech industry has been marked by continuous growth and a passion for excellence. Leading multiple teams' technical direction, I championed improvements in the development cycle, automation enhancements, and team efficiency, all while ensuring top-notch customer support. Beyond technical prowess, I believe in the power of strategic thinking – a lesson reinforced by my dedication to Brazilian jiu-jitsu. Just like in chess, success in the professional world demands foresight and strategic planning. This philosophy guides my approach to every project and team I lead.

Claude by Anthropicp/claudeNika

5h ago

People are switching from OpenAI to Claude following Sam Altman's announcement today.

TL;DR: Anthropic refused to sign a contract with the Pentagon that would have allowed the U.S. military to use all of its models without restrictions. Anthropic insisted on an exception, and brace yourself, that its models cannot be used: 1) for mass surveillance of citizens, 2) for autonomous killing. Now the administration is threatening that if the founder of Anthropic doesn't change his mind by a certain date, they will come after him.

Google, OpenAI, and Musk (Grok) have all signed the contract.

Following Sam Altman's announcement over the past few hours, people have been speaking out massively about cancelling their OpenAI subscriptions and subscribing to Claude.

Have you ever reread a message 5 times before sending?

I've noticed something about modern work:

We spend a surprising amount of time rewriting Slack / Teams messages and emails, not because the content is wrong, but because the tone might land badly.

Before you hit send you start questioning: Do you optimize for clarity, warmth, authority or speed?

Hey PH Community. It's a pleasure to be a member.

Hey everyone, my name is Salim, living in Montreal, Canada. I am by heart a software engineer working in the corporate world leading teams and afterhours exploring and building things with new tools, ways and technologies.

My latest tinkers which I will be launching next week here on Product Hunt is VibeRewrite (https://viberewrite.com) born out of a simple idea, and some personal experience with loss of words or correct vibe or tone when replying to messages.
With more time I spent gathering feedback and working on it the more it's evolving and the more I am hyped and motivated to grow and solve more problems with it.

So, basically this is me and my latest that got me into this community. Looking forward to e-meet and communicate with a lot of you.

Cheers
