Wednesday check-in π airllm claims to run a 70B model on a normal computer by loading layers progressively. But it is seconds per token: works in theory, useless in practice for now. Bet we get this on phones one day, just not today. Building in public. #buildinpublic
The coding version of Hal changing a lightbulb and ending up under the car: one feature, then a dependency, a version conflict, CI, infra. Some call it yak shaving. Fix: once it is solved in Claude Code, double-tap Esc, roll back to the feature, keep the code. #buildinpublic
Monday check-in π A customer meeting then their bank to untangle financial integration issues stuck for ~6 months and now urgent, urgent Billabong changes for meal orders after checkout, and a new trackball (first in ~20 years). Building in public. #buildinpublic
Sunday check-in π Billabong AGM feedback for more transparent voting, Claude driving Chrome to grab scripts + screenshots and build a PDF of feedback, the Moonjar web build nearing launch, and easy Wordle score sharing. Building in public. #buildinpublic
Saturday check-in π Lighter day: fixing a Billabong Life bug where docs deleted themselves (S3 versioning, soft delete + a recycle bin), shipping a private events feature, and fixing a Moonjar collections bug. Plus cleaner audio. Building in public. #buildinpublic
@BuildurBrand_io Oh⦠and a marketing plan.
Do you think that thereβs a community of people who βloveβ marketing the same way builders love building?
Would be nice to connect these two groups - building is the easy part but getting customers is the challenge.
@BuildurBrand_io I have a couple on the go. https://t.co/vuYNxV9685 the mcp only CRM and Moonjar (iOS app) as a second brain system. I need a better catch phrase for it.
@yabsssai Nothing that I could put my hand on my heart and say that it's significantly better yet. Maybe the one thing I have noticed is that it seems to work through a long-running task a bit better. But that's all quite subjective.
Friday check-in π Claude Opus 4.8 dropped overnight. Also playing with Gemini Live, the fastest real-time audio model I've heard, and pushing 3DN API work to the front end today. Building in public, one day at a time. #buildinpublic#claude
