I’ve launched https://t.co/wrrYS2fm9u today. Genuinely interested in knowing what you think. Does it make sense at this time? What parts would you like to know more about along the way?

[Luís Ferreira @zamith]

I'm starting a new challenge, building 12 products in 12 months. I'm calling it "12-in-12" and doing it all in the open. Each month you get to vote on what I build, and you can propose your own ideas: https://t.co/wrrYS2fm9u

[Luís Ferreira @zamith]

So I can catch up with https://t.co/l831pWLDot I'm gonna need one simpler product, something that does a single thing, well. What's a pain you currently have that is too specific for a big product to fix? Help me out with ideas in the comments.

[Luís Ferreira @zamith]

I've been out, mostly on holidays, for a bit, but am back with https://t.co/l831pWLDot. I've started building Airtime, an app to automate editing your podcasts, so you can focus on the part that's actually fun.

@martinfowler Hey Martin, how have you been? Curious if you’re sharing this because it’s an interesting point, which I think it is, or if you yourself share the point of view?

[Luís Ferreira @zamith]

Forge is now invite-only and free.

The catch? You pay with your feedback.

I want to build this with you, not just for you. Want in? Reply or DM. 👇

@abel_soares Yeah, Forge will not support that on purpose. If you have a potential medical condition I recommend talking to a professional. But it will create a workout plan that fits your timeline and your goals.

[Luís Ferreira @zamith]

My first Forge workout today and there's still a lot of work to make it great. It is built on a solid base of sports science, so I'm confident it'll get to a point of being a great workout companion. I'll keep being the guinea pig and will report back! 🤣 https://t.co/QFUZyeB9Dh

[Luís Ferreira @zamith]

@abel_soares Still ironing some kinks. What sort of thing do you ask of the model?

[Luís Ferreira @zamith]

What’s the main thing that makes you actually do a workout at the gym? Can be with an app, ai model, personal trainer or by yourself. Do you decide what you’re training before hand? What makes you miss a workout?

[Luís Ferreira @zamith]

@Joelpillar1 I’m doing a 12 products in 12 months challenge, currently in month 2. I have a bunch of ideas and am also crowdsourcing some more ideas of things to build. Check it out if you think one of the products could be useful for you. https://t.co/l831pWLDot

[Luís Ferreira @zamith]

@Seraphinaf5 71, no?

[Luís Ferreira @zamith]

@JoePompliano This is a very disingenuous post and you know it. Even if the red card was bogus, the normal thing to happen would be to rescind the one match suspension, not suspend for a year until there is an appropriate time to enforce it. It’s ok to disagree, but don’t act holier than thou.

[Luís Ferreira @zamith]

Went silent, but Quietbox now supports Outlook and has better email suppression. That's it for new features as I've finished month one. Happy with it, it's solid and focused and I'll still support it.

@Gamingtronium Vim is great for coding. Now, if you want to build software without coding, Claude Code is pretty nice 😊

[Luís Ferreira @zamith]

@cathrynlavery Why GitHub specifically and not git? Or if you need to have it hosted somewhere Gitlab or Bitbucket. I too prefer GitHub, but a bit confused with the take. Are you advocating for version control in general?

[Luís Ferreira @zamith]

@f Can we not, what? Think, loop or think in a loop? 😅

[Luís Ferreira @zamith]

@NathanWilbanks_ Nice. I have a pretty good workflow with AI, don’t get me wrong, but I’m not at the fully autonomous system yet. Not just for the technical aspect, more worried about building the “right” thing

[Luís Ferreira @zamith]

@DanielSmidstrup The fact that you’re even asking that is already a few steps ahead of most devs. It’s fine to build for the sake of building, but getting people to try it and then staying is the hard part

[Luís Ferreira @zamith]

@yashhq_22 It was the best earlier, as others catch up (and maybe surpass it) a huge chunk of the dev market is there. Similar to Apple products I guess

[Luís Ferreira @zamith]

@NathanWilbanks_ Right, X is not really a place for nuance 😅 Have you tried it for anything public facing yet? Especially with paying customers?

[Luís Ferreira @zamith]

@GergelyOrosz Loops sound cool and might have a good use case in the future. Right now it really seems like it’s more of a developer’s wet dream of having robots working for you non stop, but not really adding that much value.
