4. Creating MVP’s will only work if you have an existing audience and only for a limited time. Customers will expect more.

Hello World 2026.

1. There will be more corporate job losses. Eventually the unemployed will realize they need to become entrepreneurs. This entrepreneurial movement will unleash the most creative uses of AI.

3. If you build products or services your job description will change in practice but the official HR definition won’t change. Roles in the product development lifecycle will converge.

2. Those who remain in corporate jobs will be expected to perform at such a high level that there will be an increase in burnout. Executive leaders must focus on employee wellbeing and provide their employees with the tools necessary to thrive but many will not.

@twostraws @tryswiftconf Thanks for the response. One thing that would be helpful in the documentation is the right approach to use Javascript. I can see a scenario where someone would want to submit contact form values to an API. Great work and I'm excited to contribute!

@migueldeicaza This was so funny

Sometimes when you're coding, something that should take an hour can sometimes take two days. Don't be discouraged and give up. Keep going because that's when you really start learning #BlackTechTwitter

Rebuilding my website makes me appreciate how important it is to own your key assets. #BlackTechTwitter

@render @strapijs Figured it out. Thanks for checking in

@render got this error when deploying @strapijs Error: Module not found: Error: Can't resolve '/opt/render/project/src/containers/App/utils/customRoutes' in '/opt/render/project/src/.cache/admin/src/containers/App/utils'. Help!

Figured it out. I upgraded from Strapi 3.4.3 to 3.5.0 and it worked locally but wouldn’t work when I deployed to Render. Downgraded packages to 3.4.5 and that worked. Such a pain in the ass. Wasted so much time trying to figure this out.

Guess what. Even senior software engineers have to look things up. Don’t be ashamed if you as a jr developer have to. #BlackTechTwitter

[Chem Swift @ChemSwift]

You always hear don't build it yourself. But there is satisfaction in building your own website as a developer. Have the best of both worlds with #nextjs and #strapi. #BlackTechTwitter.

That feeling you get when your build succeeds on @vercel .

Basic plan for my website:
1. Build out an MVP & launch 2/1*
2. Add features and focus on perf. all through Feb
3. March, upgrade #nextjs frontend to #TypeScript
4. Ultimate goal, keep costs low, improve UX and perf.
