Hello there, it's been brought to my attention that the world's BIGGEST hackathon for non-developers is starting next week! Did you know about THIS?! Organised by @boltdotnew, there is $1M in prizes on the line. I was going to do it alone and then I thought actually this would be WAY more fun with others. So @100schoolHQ is running the *unofficial* bootcamp on Maven for anyone participating. It started as a tiny idea but we got a little carried away and have created a 4-week program that will make sure you... - learn how to actually vibe code - ship a working product you're PROUD of - ofcc submit your bolt hackathon submission Bottom line: learning and building alone is tough, but now you have the choice to STACK the odds in your favour by joining us. (and just as a little guilt trip: if you would like to avoid copious amounts of FOMO, you may aswell jump in. frankly, it's time to BUILD) Link to join below 👇

🥺 Proud moment: @UniofNewcastle (where I went to uni) are now offering @100schoolHQ courses to all students. Talk about full circle!

Last yr @100schoolHQ was nearly ended by AI and sucked the life out of me. This yr we have 📈 revenue AND - I’ve found more "life" in life. Here are some life (and work) lessons + insights I wanted to share in case useful 👇 1️⃣ quit playing it cool. “life is short, be intent, passionate and mildy insane. whoever's left hanging is your friend” - @nickgraynews 2️⃣ big decisions can be easier than you think Asking these 3 x Q’s has radically simplied (+ improved) my decisions: - “would 85yr old me regret not having done this thing?” if yes, DO IT! - “is this a one door (irriversible) or two door (reversible) decision”? - “what’s the worse case scenario?” oh it’s actually normally not that bad, so go DO the thing!! 3️⃣ Be radically human Ai is making everything feel inhuman. So be more HUMAN! “You can't outsource soul” - @JesseItzler 4️⃣ Treat your career more like a startup, than a job Entrepreneurs are the only category of professionals untied to one replaceable skill and inherently wired to be value generating machines. the new world of work demands *that* because we're now in the "value economy". 5️⃣ Energy never lies does it feel like a game to you but a chore to others? that's your signal. Same with relationships - do you feel more hyped or drained after seeing someone? That's your compass. 6️⃣ You are your only security The new professional isn't defined by a company, degree, or role - just their mindset to adapt, learn, and create value. "skills are the only thing that can't be taken from you" 7️⃣ stop trying to fit in. Your weird is your edge. “i’m just gonna make what’s cool to me and sometimes the whole world will agree” - @MikePosner i’m just grateful to be building something meaningful, in the trenches, free to experiment - exactly where I want to be! Keep it 💯 2025 is going to be GREAT!

✨ I have some news: @100schoolHQ is changing (quite a *lot* actually) I knew deep down teaching tech skills alone wasn't enough anymore. In part because the world is entering the biggest talent migration in history: - 50% of the workforce needs reskilling by 2025 - 65% of future jobs don't exist yet - 44% of graduates feel unprepared for work So this summer I did something uncomfortable: stopped, studied and obsessed over one question: "What skills do people actually need to THRIVE (not just survive) in the future of work?" Here's what I discovered... A new world of work is *here* where teams are shrinking, the 9-5 is eroding, skills matter more than degrees and roles are becoming problem statements. The old rules of career success are DONE. Your only job security is how quickly you can learn, adapt, and create VALUE. That's why we're going all-in on a new mission: help 1M people become the entrepreneurs of their own careers... By teaching the essential skills and mindsets of the future, all in just 30 mins a day – like a daily software update for your career. But here's the thing: I can't do this alone. We need a movement of people and orgs working together to build the most adaptable workforce in history. And it starts now. So my ask to you is simple. Help us put a dent in this by 🙏: 1️⃣ commenting with 💯 and reshare, if you believe in this mission 2️⃣ tag someone or org we should collaborate with 3️⃣ DM me if you want to support Here's to owning our futures, together
