17 | Learning indie hacking in public.

AI tools. Building. Founder Psychology.

From India. Not advice - observations from the beginning

I am 17!

No games
No social media
No Netflix
No parties
No addictions
(No studying 😅)

Just
Learning.
Building.
Shipping.

@vansh22b The best AI is the one that helps you get work done.

Most people spend too much time comparing models and not enough time building with them.

[Akshay @Akkii_learner]

@markproduct Probably because conversations happen faster here.

One good post can lead to feedback, connections, and opportunities in a single day.

[Akshay @Akkii_learner]

I just realized having one person who gets it changes everything.

Most people around me don't understand the building thing. My brother does.

You don't need a crowd. You need one person in your corner who speaks the language.

@shubh19 Well said 🤝

I'm still early in the journey, but posts like yours make me excited to keep showing up. Let's connect!

@jackfriks Most people would choose the extra $600 MRR.

But keeping $600 is often easier than earning a new $600.

@anupamrjp Falling in love with the solution before validating the problem.

I've seen this mistake mentioned by so many experienced founders.

[Akshay @Akkii_learner]

@rdbuilds7 Still in the learning phase 👨‍💻

Exploring AI, coding, and startups every day. Hopefully I'll have something to drop here soon 🤝

Ready to connect :)

@KaiXCreator From what I've seen, Claude Code feels better for long coding sessions, while Codex seems stronger when you need tight integration with the OpenAI ecosystem.

[Akshay @Akkii_learner]

@jackfriks The builder's loop: ship → think → ship → repeat.😂

[Akshay @Akkii_learner]

@krishdotdev Claude Sonnet 4.6. Feels like the sweet spot between quality, speed, and cost right now

[Akshay @Akkii_learner]

@anupamrjp Yes. Money is the goal eventually, but learning and momentum have value too.

[Akshay @Akkii_learner]

@jackfriks A lot of progress exists because someone ignored the odds and kept building anyway.

[Akshay @Akkii_learner]

@0xPrajwal_ This is probably the best AI career advice I've seen. Execution is getting cheaper, judgment isn't.

[Akshay @Akkii_learner]

@tanujDE3180 Founder. Highest risk by far, but also the highest upside. The ceiling isn't even close.

[Akshay @Akkii_learner]

@anupamrjp If people are already paying without much marketing, that's usually a pretty good signal.

[Akshay @Akkii_learner]

@TheSpacerr If you're the one who found the problem, validated it, shipped it, and got users, then yes. The tool used to build it doesn't change that.

[Akshay @Akkii_learner]

@uday_devops Memory. Not having to repeat context every conversation is a huge quality-of-life upgrade.

[Akshay @Akkii_learner]

@jackprice Exploring AI, coding, and indie hacking. Would love to connect with people a few steps ahead of me and learn from their journey.

[Akshay @Akkii_learner]

You have nothing built yet. So what do you post?

What you're learning.
What you're confused by.
What you're noticing.

Progress posts come later. Learning posts work from day one, at any follower count.
