Turning complexity into working solutions

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

After years in tech, one thing is clear:

Simplicity scales.

Complexity collapses.

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

@cinamarina You didn’t fail. Some things in life simply become more important than the goals we put on a calendar.

Keep your chin up. The dream will still be there when you’re ready to pick it back up. Wishing your father and your family strength for the road ahead. ❤️

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

@PedroGuiti Has to be outbound for me. I’d rather go find the right people than spend forever hoping they find me. 😄

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

What percentage of your production code is now AI-assisted?

10%
30%
50%
90%+

I suspect the answers have changed dramatically this year.

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

@SamVale29 Congratulations way to go 👍🏻

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

@boni_dev And talking to 50 could turn a good product into an amazing one.
Every conversation gets you a little closer to building something people genuinely want. 🙌

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

@javier_otieno1 💯 true. People love watching someone rise, fall or make a comeback.

It’s the quiet middle where nothing dramatic is happening that nobody seems to notice.

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

@TreasureMusaAI There are still plenty of quiet builders out there. Not sure that population is growing though 😄

Building and being seen building are becoming two very different skills.

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

@axhiii88547 Brag about what it built and count the dollars. Someone has to do the hard part. 🤣

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

@Ionkosm Mine’s a 2014 MacBook Pro. Still going strong and staying till its last breath.

I still have its father from 2008 too. Also alive. 😬

Apparently Macs retire when they decide, not when I do.

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

Keep Claude Code for life.

Give up X.

Then immediately regret having nobody to tell what I built. 🤣

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

Builders, choose carefully:

ONE tool you get to keep for life.

ONE tool you can never use again.

What are your two picks?

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

@BasantSoli33398 10 for me. We’re slowly outsourcing everything else to agents anyway.

Networking might be the last real human advantage left 😄

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

@patrick_kuhnke_ Impressive 🔥

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

@aiw3ndil You can tell a lot of thought and effort went into this. Nicely put together 👏

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

I want to find 20 products being built that more people should know about.

AI tool?
SaaS?
App?
Dev tool?
Niche software?
Strange side project that somehow became useful?

Drop the URL below.

No pitch deck. No presentation.

Just show me what you built.

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

There are two versions of every product:

The one in the founder’s head.

And the one users somehow manage to use.

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

@Wallza_IN Great all the best 👍🏻

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

@ZarinTasnifo3 Hey Zarin

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

@Rohith_Itagi Happy to connect 🤝
What’s keeping you busy these days?

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

@Wallza_IN I was also planning something on these lines.. Inbox looks clean. More like a multi-tenant tool.

[itsVikas @Vikas_Bablani]

@MichaelZima Hey Zima, nice work. Much needed utility. 👍🏻
