I’ve started countless experiments… and left most halfway.
Too many ideas, too little follow-through?
I’m curious — what’s your setup to stay consistent with side projects?

This time, I’m changing my setup: one master monorepo for all my side projects.
✅ Apps + shadcn + turborepo
✅ assistant-ui + payload CMS + better-auth
Wrapped up the base setup today — ready for faster experiments 🚀
@izadoesdev We're using GCP for our cloud infrastructure and run most of our services — frontend, backend, and various self-hosted open-source projects — through an instance of Coolify.
@0xBosky @aigrantsindia@vaibhavbetter Great initiative by @0xBosky. As a developer experimenting in AI space, the credits really helped reduce the barrier for experimentation for me in AI.

the new normal:
1. the new saas wedge is: wrap the model, add memory, build the brand, create media
2. we’re entering the copy/paste phase of startup building
3. your cofounder is a chat window
4. software used to wait for you. now it moves on its own
5. apps are starting to think, not just react
6. you don’t click around anymore, you ask
7. every document, call, or video is now searchable and useful
8. workflows are the new IP
9. the MVP is the prompt
10. your next “aha moment” from an app will come from something your app did without asking
11. someday soon, you’ll forget what it felt like to use software that waited
12. “chat” is a placeholder for better UX
13. personalization used to mean your name in the subject line. now it means completely different experiences
14. 90% of your idea already exists in a chat history somewhere
15. building a product is now easier than building an audience/community
16. most startups will start as workflows
17. english is the new code, and curiosity is the new IDE
18. “powered by ai” is not a value prop
19. attention span is the new api limit
20. when the model is the engine, UI becomes the brand
21. your roadmap is now a dialogue with the model
22. product-market fit is being replaced by prompt-market fit
23. the app you open next will already know why you came
24. the faster you close the loop between idea and result, the more dangerous you become
25. “good design” used to mean intuitive. now it means invisible
26. lots of first-time founders will build faster than veterans because they are more AI fluent/grew up on vlogging
27. the real moats are memory, feedback loops, and distribution
28. “what can this do?” is a failure of design
29. the next wave of breakout products will feel like friends, not tools
30. the more obvious your idea feels, the more likely it’s worth doing right now
31. the new founder skillset: knowing what not to build
32. pricing models are now part of the UX
33. product intuition now beats technical ability 9 times out of 10
34. the real race is who gets to default status first
35. marketing is now: “here’s the before/after. want in?”
36. if you can’t explain it in a tweet, it will never reach product/market fit
welcome to the new normal
@gregisenberg Exactly I have this Prompt Builder in ChatGPT which I use to write my prompt before actually running these prompts. Getting a lot better results.
