My fun vacation project is building a microSaas 👌🏽 any guesses what it will be 👀 ?

I woke up 🐓 at 3AM this morning and had 4 blissful hours of uninterrupted coding time 👩🏻‍💻 . By the time my team has logged on, I’m already feeling accomplished and on top of my day 📈

Is your Monday morning productivity ruined 😡 by a barrage of distracting messages from coworkers🙊?

💡Try starting you work day a few hours earlier on Mondays to buy yourself time to get settled in and start the week on your terms 😇

@amasad TRUE. The first time I integrated Plaid into a product, I thought to myself “wow amazing plaid convinced all these banks to support Oauth”. Man was I in for a surprise 😅

@yehoshzl @foliofed 👍🏼 sure thing, I’ll do a more in dept post about it soon!

@foliofed Used this strategy for an insurance marketplace product I worked on. We went from one main search page to a dedicated page for each state and product combination e.g. ‘NY term life policies’. The SEO impact was insane. Went from nothing on 1st page to 30+ top 3 terms like that📈

@csaba_kissi I’ve never seen carnage quite like the time I inadvertently started a z-index arms race among my team members 💀

I have post traumatic stress from all the times I’ve tried to use a library for a ‘super common task’ only to have the library take 10x as long to integrate vs just writing the code myself 😪

@DDukes12 Big “I have moved straight to the end” energy 📈

[Burke Livingston @NotoriousIDE]

Anyways, I’m selling this service as a new SaaS 📈. For 4.99/mo you can have the perfect excuse to not show up to boring meetings 🏖

[Burke Livingston @NotoriousIDE]

I was doing some load testing 🏋️‍♀️ the other day and created 10,000 events on my calendar 🗓. They were supposed to get deleted automatically but my wifi died in the middle and now Outlook crashes whenever I open it 💀. Guess I don’t have to go to any meetings today 🙈🙉

@Carnage4Life The Bolt Saga is the best new show of 2022. Can’t wait for the next episode where we find out @theryanking was actually Adam Neumann in a mask the whole time

[Burke Livingston @NotoriousIDE]

Officially using @NotionHQ as our issue tracker @myquantime. Everything feels so streamlined, I can’t believe I didn’t do this sooner! 👋🏻 Jira

@suchittuli 6 is pretty generous - I think I’ve DC’d when you were only 30 seconds late before

[Burke Livingston @NotoriousIDE]

@daniel_nguyenx We were so busying wondering if we could, we never stopped to ask if we should 🤔

[Burke Livingston @NotoriousIDE]

@petergyang Great name for my new emo band tho 🎧

@felix12777 It’s certainly posed some technical hurdles, but being able to design each product for a single clearly defined user persona has been a huge win 📈

[Burke Livingston @NotoriousIDE]

@felix12777 We’re packaging a core set of features out into smaller products that are tailor made for specific verticals. Our features were resonating with users but the ‘something for everyone’ approach was leading to ux clunkiness, discoverability issues etc
