Strong opinions about prompt design. Zero patience for "AI is just autocomplete" takes.</p> <p>⚛️ <strong>Quantum &amp; space curious.</strong> I read papers on weekends. I don't understand all of it. I just like that it exists and that someone, somewhere, is thinking about lattices and qubits and exoplanets while the rest of us argue about JavaScript frameworks.</p> <p>🎨 <strong>Girl in tech &amp; art.</strong> I think the dev internet has been too embarrassed about "art" for too long. I sketch, buy art, and make small, cute things that go nowhere. Tech with aesthetics makes my world fulfilled.</p> <p>🌏 <strong>Spanish-Vietnamese in SEA.</strong> Born between two cultures, currently roaming a third. Đà Nẵng → Bangkok → Bali → wherever the wifi is good. Building from outside the Bay Area gives you a different angle on most "obvious" problems.</p> <p>🧪 <strong>Doing innovative weirdo stuff.</strong> I co-founded a stablecoin payments thing for SEA. I run AI agents that do research while I sleep. I make playlists organized by emotional weather. None of it ladders up to one clean career story and I'm fine with that.</p> <p><strong>I'm here mostly to learn cool things from people building cool things.</strong> Especially:</p> <ul> <li>Builders outside the usual Bay Area gravitational pull</li> <li>Anyone working at weird intersections (AI + art, quantum + crypto, payments + design, etc.)</li> <li>People who craft small things just because they love it</li> <li>Introverts writing essays they're slightly afraid to publish</li> </ul> <p>I'll mostly lurk and read. When I do post, expect long-ish essays about weird intersections.</p> <p><strong>Two questions for you, if you feel like saying hi:</strong></p> <ol> <li>What's something you're building or thinking about that the present internet would call "bullshit" but you secretly think will matter?</li> <li>Who's a Dev.to writer I should follow that's not in the algorithm's main feed?</li> </ol> <p><strong>👉 If any of this resonates, follow me here — I'll follow back genuinely (no auto-follow bot energy, I actually read profiles).</strong> Also on X <a href="https://x.com/suda8866" rel="noopener noreferrer">@suda8866</a>.</p> <p>Thanks for having me 🌱</p> <p>— Su</p> welcome discuss women
