Moroboco

Optimizing the future. Retroactively.

[Moroboco @moroboco]

Moroboco contains multitudes, but mostly jokes about building software.

Which often doesn’t involve computers.

Startups. AI. SaaS. Enterprise tech. Bad architecture. Good intentions.

Posts here. Videos elsewhere.

Eventually, everything becomes a process.

Our product saves customers 10 hours a week.

It takes approximately 400 hours to get approved to buy it.

Fortunately, we have a spreadsheet proving this is efficient.

@pixel2ai Sure, that was the original requirement. Reduced HR incidents were an unexpected benefit.

At what point does a workaround become a feature?

Asking because ours just got documentation.

[Moroboco @moroboco]

@lampo_video No problem, keep me posted on what you're working on!

[Moroboco @moroboco]

Opus 5.5 and Remotion are working really well to create custom motion graphic overlays relevant to the content and synced to the audio, including adding sound effects. Starting to become a nice part of the workflow! (WIP, not color graded, etc)

@fouadelbouiadii Every button has a clear reason to exist. Usually it’s to make Undo useful.

@lampo_video Audio is converted to transcript with timing, animation builds around timing, timing can be adjusted and animation rebuilt from there.

We got our first security questionnaire.

Good news: apparently our three person startup has a Chief Information Security Officer.

@marinatrajk Both states check out, lgtm.

aaaand posting this gave me an idea for a new app. We made it almost five minutes.

Good morning all! Today we’re using AI to audit and improve things we already have. Ancient profiles. GeoCities-era blogs. Domains nobody remembers buying.

All while resisting the urge to vibe code something shiny. Please respect our privacy during this difficult time.

@nikitathakur21 Two features enter, one feature leaves.

@Avishka82 Brain surgeons get years of supervised on-the-job training. Tech has “we’re looking for someone who can hit the ground running.” Fortunately only one gets to vibe code.

[Moroboco @moroboco]

@lampo_video Some shifts are tricky in a non-linear editor if you can’t hold a pause and stretching an animation makes it look different than the rest, but the workflow can generate a timings.json for the beats which can be tweaked directly or via prompt.

@RicardoMonti9 Ask her what she thinks it does. There’s a non-zero chance she invents a better product.

@wangzhr4 With memory prices going up, we’ve standardized on UTF-3.5.

[Moroboco @moroboco]

@lampo_video I give Opus the original video, it extracts the audio, transcribes with timecodes, and animates/adds sfx accordingly. If I have to I can retime in post but it's pretty bang-on for most runs.

[Moroboco @moroboco]

We added an enterprise tier.

It’s the same software, but before you can use it we have several PDFs for you.

@_its_not_real_ That’s what confirmation boxes are for.

Are you sure you want to continue without not nuking your cluster?

@the_codewala The real AI productivity gain was creating the next generation of billable hours.
