Twin dad, building apps, one Cursor CMD+L call at at time

So I'm launching a new startup and will gradually start posting more here about techy dev stuff. I apologise in advance if I become insufferable.

[JVG @jvgee]

@ScooterMcNeice Do you have a list of TV show recs? I've watched Andor, Shetland, The Pitt and Slow Horses because of you and we clearly have the same taste.

[JVG @jvgee]

Every time I see a bald dude with a Slavic name post about AI I just assume they have a $5B valuation for their pre-launch startup

[JVG @jvgee]

I fucking hate LinkedIn

[JVG @jvgee]

fuck

[JVG @jvgee]

I asked AI to come up with something truly disturbing and bizarre.

Something really freaky, scary, messed up.

This is what it came up with.

[JVG @jvgee]

Ok you got me

[JVG @jvgee]

A man of taste, I see

[JVG @jvgee]

LFG

[JVG @jvgee]

Set chaos? Don't mind if I do

[JVG @jvgee]

Vibe coding is cool and all until Claude keeps fucking with your API route middleware with every change it suggests

[JVG @jvgee]

@jackfriks Doing great mate! Make a version for tracking drinking/drugs, an easy hair-on-fire MVP group for you

[JVG @jvgee]

My prompts are too powerful for Cursor/Claude, bow before me plebian AI underlings

[JVG @jvgee]

@levelsio I went really fast into space and then couldn't find Earth again, please fix

[JVG @jvgee]

@marckohlbrugge @levelsio I had a demo disk of games in like 1995 that did this, you walked around a space ship + found the game you wanted to play, plus there were some mini-games in the spaceship too.

It was awesome.

@jackfriks @postbridge_ For me the immediate value prop that I'd pay money for:

"You've made the app, I'll generate and automate your marketing, tweaking messaging etc until you get the customers you want"

[JVG @jvgee]

@jackfriks @postbridge_ This is great mate, I've considered hiring influencers or using AI for posting about some of my products, but if you can nail this as a feature I'll happily pay for it.

[JVG @jvgee]

nice

[JVG @jvgee]

@jackfriks As a long-term programmer, I'm not so sure. I think the market for "AI whisperers", who know how to talk to AI, know how to get results will become the new hot profession.

(sees the future, continues clicky clacking on his apps and CMD+L-ing when I have a typo 😅)

[JVG @jvgee]

Build in the cloud, they said. It will make it easy, they said

[JVG @jvgee]

Being a dad on Instagram is so cool, all of my promoted posts are startups telling me my kids are gonna die because I didn't use their BlinkyBloo app that has a $25 monthly SaaS fee
