I don't think I'll even be hand-coding a crud admin interface to manage data ever again. Especially for a non-public-facing tool. v0, bolt, lovable can all do that work for me and get me actually working on my data itself. #buildinpublic

I used to say "laziness" was a good trait to be a good developer since it used to force me to abstract and automate. AI however, seems to have taken it to a whole new meaning. #buildinpublic lovable.dev

Hell yeah!!! Repaired my broken dishwasher through the power of YouTube. Not sure if I'm happier about succeeding at DIY repair or saving $200+ potentially if I had called someone. #diy #winning #buildinpublic

Playing with all these AI tools is getting costly. Is anybody trying to run their own local models? Are you building your own rigs? How has been your experience? #buildinpublic #openai #chatgpt #ollama

It's just me that doesn't like having 1:1 meetings with the other person on a treadmill desk? Just had an interview where the hiring manager was walking in place and I think it threw me off a bit. Not my best. #interviews #meetings

Anyone trying to give the new #laravel starter kits a go, instead of creating a new project using the installer, just clone the repo github.com/orgs/laravel... and init the project manually. I don't think the installers are updated with the new kits just yet. So many new things to play with!

Been a few weeks since I got laid off. Taking care of things, wife, kids. Started sending out applications again. And now multiple consecutive days of commits to #heyshopkeep 3 days 6 commits. Hoping to speed things up 🤞#buildinpublic

I'm constantly trying to figure out the best way to keep track of all the dev related things I bookmark. I keep failing at keeping things organized, removing old links, and finding what I need. Does anyone have a good system figured out? Would appreciate some tips. #buildinpublic #laravel

I'm giving #ghostty a try. So far I'm not sure what the big deal is. I know its supposed to be fast, but I don't think I've ever said.. "Man.. I would be so much more productive if iTerm was a bit faster". Also really don't like opening textedit to change preferences. #buildinpublic

My whole team got laid off today. Gonna take some time to reflect and think about the next steps. Maybe now I'll be able to give my side projects more time. Still need to find the next paycheck though. Can only float for so long. #buildinpublic

This has to be a joke right? The **WINAMP** of code IDEs glasseditor.com

Spotify wrapped seems to be everywhere. Am I the only one who doesn't use Spotify?

Love ballot tracking in California for mail in ballots. Do other states have something similar? #ivoted

building #heyshopkeep on an m1 air in a dark room next to my sick 2 year old, last night for about 1.5 hrs ✔ auth and accounts ✔ gmail api setup ✔ basic page designs in tailwind first goal is to make a tool I would actually use. next is to make enough revenue to buy a newer laptop 😂 #buildinpublic
