1/ Vast majority #OpenAI consuming apps will not survive 2023 (despite bringing huge value)

Most are merely thin layers on top of #ChatGPT API and are super simple to build.

Let's dive into the reasoning behind this 🧵

@philkellr Take care, man! Enjoy some family time and come back fully recharged!

[Martin Barreto @mtnBarreto]

@mddanishyusuf Thx! good experience so far?

[Martin Barreto @mtnBarreto]

@bryant1410 Congrats Dr. Santiago! 👏👏👏

@philkellr If no operation costs you can go higher if it brings more customers

[Martin Barreto @mtnBarreto]

@marclou @joe_ashwell @nextauthjs works pretty good and it’s super simple to integrate

@tibo_maker Only solution is moving these client components down your components tree

In practice most UI elements need some sort of user interaction (on change, etc) or use react hooks (useEffect, useState). So these components couldn’t be server components

[Martin Barreto @mtnBarreto]

@tibo_maker It shouldn’t look like this

Create reusable components by extending https://t.co/xtGAXi24tx

@svpino Ineffective daily standup is an effective way to make experienced people leave

@SaidAitmbarek - iPhone as camera
- Rode wireless GO II as mic

Run and gun setup

@philkellr A isn't sustainable long-term. It's key to stay flexible, transitioning from one strategy to another as needed

@OpenDevLog Going well!

Putting my focus on launching a functional prototype for a private beta.

Just implementing core value proposition functionalities with great UX for now. Dealing with vector stores, langchain and LLMs right now.

What’s about you?

Just a month ago I made the first commit to my product 🚀

#buildinpublic

👉 My learnings on product building productivity:

➤ Consistency is key: Small daily progress makes the difference

➤ Leverage open source. ALWAYS

➤ Act more, document less. Notes & GitHub just works

@sanlavdenizcan Sadly true for most programmers

[Martin Barreto @mtnBarreto]

@damengchen Main locale strategies are domain and path based.

I guess you want to use the path based strategy. I suggest to prefix the url with the locale. /cn/blog

Then a middleware could redirect urls to locale url version according to browser preferences or whatever you want

@tim_cook 👏👏👏

@krzyzanowskim Maybe time to bring back Jony Ive… 😬

My wife pushing me to #live to 💯

I think she want to create a 🔵 zone at home

👍 Code conciseness makes anyone more productive

However RoR abstraction creates web devs that don’t know what going on under the hood..so any custom requirement takes forever

Think about auth. forms, routes, db, session in one command. Then no one knows how to customize

[Martin Barreto @mtnBarreto]

Is #rubyonrails dying?

Is there any new #AI startup using it?

🧨

👋

[Martin Barreto @mtnBarreto]

Honestly I’ve never found a reason to choose #Ruby over #Python

RoR
✅ Strong community
✅ Lots of OSS
✅ Easy to read code
✅ Fast to build MVPs

However, most (NOT ALL) RoR developers:

[Martin Barreto @mtnBarreto]

• Don't contribute to OSS
• Don't fully understand metaprogramming magic
• Rely on puts, print for debugging 😬
