I’m Bicky. Frontend dev.
For years people came to me for advice — on life, relationships, business. One friend said: “Monetize this.”
So here I am. Writing on mindset, discipline & the long road.
Stay if you’re building something quietly.
@48LawsofPowerr Wrong question. Power is recognized. You can earn it and nobody acknowledges it. You can seize it and nobody respects it. The real move is making people believe it was always yours.
Things that bite people:
•PAN copy requires Stripe’s team — not self-serve by default
•Webhook endpoints all need updating
•Subscription IDs change — any hardcoded references break
•API keys obviously, but also test mode keys in staging
•Expired cards in the copied data can trigger Card Account Updater fees on the new account
@StevenBartlett The AI point is the one nobody wants to sit with. If the value of labour keeps shrinking, better wages and more ownership both become harder to argue for. What’s the plan when the floor drops?
Being present at my kid’s first steps costs nothing and means everything. That one hit different.
I’d add one more — you can say no without fear. No to the wrong job, the wrong people, the wrong version of yourself and the hardest part? Society spent years convincing us none of this counts unless there’s a number attached to it.
My daughter doesn’t need my money. She needs my time. That’s the wealth I’m building.
And the Stripe analogy is perfect. Failed payments silently killing revenue = failed AI calls silently breaking user experience. The difference is most devs don’t notice broken AI calls the way finance teams notice failed payments. AI Gateway making that visible changes the conversation.
Wild stat. What’s even more interesting is that 3.5% of those requests only succeed because of fallback routing — the initial provider failed. That’s not just infrastructure, that’s reliability as a feature. For anyone building with AI at scale, “zero markup + automatic recovery” is a hard combo to beat.
@ebukannaemeka_@jon_d_doe And also , If the poor marry the poor and the rich marry the rich, who exactly is allowed to upgrade the family WhatsApp group from ‘struggling’ to ‘doing well’ brother ?😂
Nigeria is bleeding.
People are being kidnapped daily, innocent lives are being lost, families are crying for help, and now even educators are being slaughtered. Yet politicians are busy with campaigns, rallies, and primary elections like everything is normal.
