How to not sound like AI: write yourself.

How do you good people deal with the feeling "I can't possibly grow my audience"? Everyone says build in public. But can you really do it now that everyone is doing it and it's not a novelty anymore?

The ultimate irony of modern web development: today's "cutting edge" is going back to what we did 20 years ago. The industry pushes complex frameworks like React/Node (think vendor lock-in and token costs). But all you need is HTML/CSS/JS. Everything else you simply embed🤷

Are you speaking with a bot? No need to use complex captchas or ask to implement a bubble sort. Just wait for them to say: "You're absolutely right!" (I mean, where did it get it from? Who talks like this?)

Did I speak too soon about #cursor? The thing has been trying to fix a missing bracket in a 500-lines file for an hour - unsuccessfully ☹️ Apparently they optimize reading big files in small chunks which creates silly problems. (Yes I know I should refactor.)

Most of the vibe-coding tools produce mobile apps on React Native (Node/Next.js). I wonder why? How do people even do it? I kept getting into dependency issues and random errors, impossible to debug. Switched to #flutter and never want to go back.

The latest #Cursor updates are seriously good. I don't even use Claude 4, just stick to Auto 🤪 It seems that the improved multi-agent logic is more important than the model itself, at least in some cases.

What is this behaviour called? I ask AI to come up with a more efficient algorithm to work with 44K cities. It creates a new smaller dataset of only 1000 cities and says - here, this works much faster. 👼

How to stop GPT-4.1 from saying that I am absolutely right? I know it already👨‍🎓 No doubts

Just donated to #ocenaudio, a life-saving, smooth and intuitive tool for audio editing which works perfectly on Mac! Good job guys!

This is how you become successful: 1. Wake up 2. Go to the same coffee shop 3. Every day 4. Turn off your phone. 5. Turn ON focus music. 6. Work on your project for ~2 hours (minimum) 7. Repeat Do this exact, boring, schedule for 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, etc... And you…

Just built a WhatsApp AI agent that replaced an entire customer support team. Sold the setup for $2,000 + $500/mo and clients are begging for more. Here’s what it does: – Reads your company’s Google Doc (FAQs, policies, service info) – Lets customers ask anything on WhatsApp –…

Haven't tried yet but looks awesome! Somebody put together a full team of AI Agents for Cloud Code: github.com/contains-studi…

This week I: - Helped 5 clients change their life - Traveled across time zones - Remembered I have a project - Pretended momentum is a renewable resource Now attempting to load the dev environment without existential dread.

Being a solo founder is like being the product manager, dev, marketing team, therapist, and concerned mother. And all of them want to quit for different reasons.

Biggest travel annoyance? Not the snorers. Not the Ryanair boarding chaos. It’s that default Samsung "whistle" echoing through every café, bus, and airport lounge. It’s not cute, people. It’s acoustic malware. We've got to do something about it, but what?

One of the best benefits of being a solopreneur is the ability to travel while working at your own schedule. After a beautiful week in @Valencia and a coffee break in #Vienna I am making my way to #Belgrade #Serbia 🇷🇸 Lots of ideas brewing...

Supabase functions or real backend? Struggling with this all day. Seems like if I need message delivery with retries and queues, a real backend is the only way 😅 Where does everyone host their backend for mobile apps? fly.io, railway, DO? Other?

Main task for today: get registered in Google's and Apple's app stores. Lots of hoops to jump through and decisions to make. Wish me luck!

I'm building the app that will revolutionize the privacy-centered travel safety space. The idea is incredibly simple, and yet nothing like this is mainstream today. If you are a traveler, you will benefit from this tool immensely.
