Sleep is a drug.

❌ Yesterday: 40% sleep score -> lethargic all day, got struggled to get anything done, terrible workout

✅ Today: 80% sleep score -> working like a maniac, I feel like I have so many ideas, amazing workout. and I generally feel so excited for life.

Protect your sleep at all costs.

My startup has made more in 3 months than what mid level engineers in Europe make in a year

[Tuomas Kivioja @InternetCoder]

What’s stopping you from coding like this?

[Tuomas Kivioja @InternetCoder]

I can’t believe everyone isn’t learning to code.

Just by learning one skill you have the ability to create an unlimited number of unpaid assistants that work for you behind the scenes 100% of the time with zero complaint.

@KevinNaughtonJr What are the biggest subscriptions you have to spend that much?

[Tuomas Kivioja @InternetCoder]

Over the past 2 days, the stock market has crashed more than 10% because of Trump's new tariffs.

Some claim he used Chat GPT to calculate the tariff rates (as that is how nonsensical the calculations were).

Lesson: Always check your AI code before applying (especially if you happen to be a world leader).

[Tuomas Kivioja @InternetCoder]

What a great day to build stuff and not look at your portfolio.

[Tuomas Kivioja @InternetCoder]

Cursor is still woke

[Tuomas Kivioja @InternetCoder]

This is all happening because Trump used cursor to calculate the tariffs and didn’t check the code before applying.

[Tuomas Kivioja @InternetCoder]

Cursor, there is a bug in the stock market, please fix

@modoulaminc Js is faster to write

My tech stack for every project now:

-Javascript (no typescript)
-React
-NodeJS & Express
-Vercel
-PostgreSQL
-Plain CSS

Is this the “best” tech stack?

Probably not.

But it’s the one I know & therefore the one that allows me to ship the fastest

POV: vibe coding a $1 billion dollar app.

Software engineers have some of the worst interpersonal skills out there.

This was absolutely the worst part of my dev job.

As a dev, if you can literally just interact with others like a normal human, you automatically have an advantage.

@CodeWithWisdom Link in bio, it’s a Youtube revenue tracking software

[Tuomas Kivioja @InternetCoder]

My software made $40k in 2 months.

-I didn't use the latest frameworks & tools
-I ignored every software design principle
-I copied from AI without reading it
-I deployed straight to prod
-I never wrote a single test
-The code repeats itself
-I still don’t know Big O

Customers don't care about your code.

I predict in the next 1-2 years, more and more people will realize how rapidly you can create valuable software using AI with 0 employees.

There is a barrier to entry still - you need to understand code in order to use AI to code for you.

But that barrier is going down.

We are now in a small window of opportunity while most people haven’t realized just how OP AI-powered coding is.

In the next few years, there will be an explosion of software, and it will become much more competitive.

So go build stuff now.

Grown men will drink this thing and convince themselves they are drinking “coffee”.

No wonder everyone is fat.

Looks like selling almost all my S&P 500 holdings in February was a good call after all.
