Wandering the steppe with my apps •

@vanikehuman They were far past their prime here, even a fan like me doesn’t like this era

This is much better https://t.co/qDXscaVoqg

@ThinksDylan LA is too chaotic and disjointed

[Steppedev @steppedev]

@monkiti_smile It depends. If it’s a serious novel I’ll try to respect it by reading nothing else until I finish it. But if it’s non-fiction or skills-focused, it can be tossed in with other reading.

@Twinble3 @anago__fire Exactly

[Steppedev @steppedev]

@anago__fire I had the same experience. Now that I’m nearing my 40s I find myself having beer and reading cheap paperbacks again. Expensive indulgences make me feel guilty now because I know they’re not worth it

This led to a lot of traffic but no sign ups or downloads, I think because it sent users to the marketing site, not the app itself

I’m going to change the CTA URL to the App Store product page and see if that makes a difference

Second TikTok POV

Hook: Read 1,500 pages in one month
Content: Join Aleph’s October reading challenge

TikTok hasn’t worked as well as X, but the book reading niche is huge there and is actually pretty good content-wise

Will start reaching out to influencers there after I post a few more times

[Steppedev @steppedev]

@Samaytwt This is going to be true for any SWE who vibe codes projects on their own. The distance between idea and finished product is very short now, so there's no room for the implementation to get mangled over weeks like it almost always does at conventional jobs on longterm projects.

Unpopular opinion: Vibe coders are shipping better products than people who actually code manually.

@dannypostma It’s excruciating to use if you’re not on their Pro plan

Such an honor to watch Marco Rubio presenting Aleph on stage like this

[Secretary Marco Rubio @SecRubio]

Starting next year, most Americans will apply for their passport entirely online. A revolution in how government works for the American people. The Trump Administration is making government simpler, faster, and more accessible.

[Steppedev @steppedev]

@nicbstme Yeah, crypto looks like a fever dream in hindsight. To some people’s defense, there were a lot of interesting ideas and white papers in the 2015-2022 years

[Steppedev @steppedev]

@OneArmedBoh @UpdatingOnRome It’s true, the book is too long

[Steppedev @steppedev]

@frederickjames Nice man. Hoping I'll get there somewhat soon.

[Steppedev @steppedev]

Aleph 1.4 is out!

You can now scan a book cover or ISBN to add it to your profile. A small but meaningful quality of life improvement.

Next, in 1.5 (just submitted):

- MUCH better search, run through Hardcover API
- Redesigned session log
- Redesigned book pages

@itsalicesoul Increasingly it's to read Japanese tweets

[Steppedev @steppedev]

@jackfriks Yeah 5.5 is unbelievably good. I feel like I'm managing someone much better than me
