Building software without code feels like cheating

Travis Kalanick: “Can you make the preparation and delivery of a quality meal so efficient that it approaches the cost of going to the grocery store?”

Someone made a song called “Claude’s Plan” inspired by Drake’s God’s Plan.

The AI industry has PEAKED here. 😭

@lightsilver323 To live my dream life

[Venkat @venkatofl]

i think one of the biggest mistakes ambitious people make is believing every day has to feel productive.

it doesn’t.

some days you solve a problem that’s been bothering you for weeks.

some days you answer emails.

some days you stare at the same screen for hours.

some days you question everything.

none of that means you’re moving backwards.

we’ve been taught to judge progress by how today felt.

companies aren’t built that way.

neither are careers.

progress is usually invisible while it’s happening.

you only notice it when you look back six months later and realize you think differently.

you solve problems faster.

you worry about different things.

the work that once felt impossible now feels routine.

that’s growth.

not because today was extraordinary.

because you kept showing up on the ordinary days too.

@venkatofl Very well said

@guerriero_se Tried sending a DM but wouldn’t go through. Mind sending me a message and I’ll share some screenshots of the app I’m building?

[Joachim @joachim_tech]

@jasonfried I think you’re romanticizing what’s probably not that great of a business or lifestyle.

That being said, if you’re already rich maybe it’s fun.

[Joachim @joachim_tech]

@davep 100% agree. It’s almost pointless to learn the tips and tricks.

Big day for Cursor

@PrajwalTomar_ @PrajwalTomar_ and @ignytlabs - how do you handle the ongoing work?

Do you continue to do the design work in Claude Design - or do let Claude Code do all the design from that point on?

@bylorenzodesign Up ⬆️

[Joachim @joachim_tech]

@BrianRoemmele Bro did you intentionally make that up?

As many other commenters can verify, she doesn’t say that.

So why post something false that’s so easy to to check?

[Joachim @joachim_tech]

@aaditsh Did you generate that summary with ChatGPT?

Facebook wasn’t unique. It just served its users better than all previous social networks.

Google didn’t focus on ”being unique”. They discovered a better way to rank the results based on backlinks.

@paulg @Austen I guess only drop out if your side project accidentally turns out to be a rocket ship.

Would you say that’s the framework Paul?

@dvassallo I can help with that.

If a product is sufficiently exceptional, and demand is through the roof, even regulations can’t stop it.

But don’t use that as a proxy for the business landscape in general.

[Joachim @joachim_tech]

@chipro 100% agree.

And I’m worried that over time I’ll just become more and more of a bottleneck until the point when I want to remove myself from the equation.

Which means I gain productivity but lose control.

[Joachim @joachim_tech]

@noahkagan I think @PrajwalTomar_ has quite a few examples

[Joachim @joachim_tech]

@levelsio Wow your legs look incredible Pieter!

@readswithravi Seems like there’s one variable missing here; years.
