Doesn’t it seem that there are no VCs on this app? 🤔

I had a birthday a few days ago, and I’ve received the coolest present - teenage engineering EP-133 sampler KO II. When I get some time I’ll finally reactivate my music alter-ego. 😉

changefetch will soon be with you. 💜💖 #indiemaker #buildinpublic

#buildinpublic update ✅ Sprint #02 for magicbinder web-app starter kit is wrapped up! Next goal: workspaces • ability to set up a workspace • ability to rename, add avatar and delete • preferences / settings menu 🫶

At what point of stock loss does Tesla need to shut down?

Using a coding agent in Windsurf is a gamechanger for non technical founders. It’s having a technical co-founder who helps you launch and build your early MVP and whose code you'll definitely replace before your seed round. Pretty much how it happens with many early-stage CTOs.

Job of a dev will shift in the next 20 years - from building to optimizing and maintaining. People skills, psychology and design thinking / systems will be much more important in the AI age.

Switched back to Cursor after using Windsurf for a few weeks, and wow it felt so unintuitive to be back. The agent output just wasn’t hitting the mark. Subbed, then unsubbed real quick. Windsurf seems to be the way for now. 🏄‍♂️✨ I am burning through credits tho...

We have a small build milestone. 🍬 - Next week we'll make some key choices around tenants, users and create workspaces. - This is the first step of actually having something 'solid' that is not just a frontend skin. - We have a name for our starter kit - magicbinder.dev #buildinpublic

Honestly? The horrible state of news, economy and events in the last year. It’s distracting AF to operate in this climate & be energized.

AI confirms JD Vance is 8 or 9 on bellend scale. 👍 I'd say it's an underestimation tbh.

Some weeks are less exciting than others, instead they are just about kinda calm doing. This week we are just doing stuff, fixing things, working on the project. Less hype and more of just toiling away. #buildinpublic

Starting something from nothing is hard. Doing it with limited resources is wild.

A bit of London evening view for you.

The rest of the team is working on Sprint 2 (navigation), and while they do that I will spend my time building a website with Astro. My goal is to create something reusable, that has blog abilities & that can be properly optimised. I'm starting with a template, of course. #buildinpublic #astro

We officially completed Sprint 1 today! 🚀 🫶 - we can log in on both client and backoffice platform using email & pass - there are user profiles - there is navigation #buildinpublic

#buildinpublic & #startup people - what is your go-to process of finding ideas & opportunities?

Michael is an amazing follow for all things brand, marketing & advertising. Happy to have you here @michaelmiraflor.bsky.social 💪

Today I learned two things: there's a comet that might hit Earth in a few years, and apparently half the internet sees this as good news. We should probably talk about that.

Yes. 🫶

Our SaaS Accelerator is taking applications! We work with generally non-VC track founders who are building innovative B2B applications that could grow 10x faster with a bit of funding, mentorship, and community. Help me share the word. 👇👇👇

Another #buildinpublic week: - Vic added zustand store & connected with authentication - Jo fixed navigation and created a profile settings page - I worked on requirements list for our saas web starter kit, including legal & compliance Our goal is to have a saas web skeleton to reuse quickly.

Went to Trieste today and had a pizza. It was good 👍

#buildinpublic update: - set up key requirements / check list for our saas web starter kit - added new ideations into our #ideation canvas with links to lovable previews - vic connected login up to navigation - josie updated the dashboard routing

Just read that shooter in Sweden is an ethnic swede that targeted SFI classes (swedish for immigrants). Figures in this climate. I went to those SFI classes. Kinda crazy to think someone hates us so much. What a tragedy today… sad.

It’s curious how most of VCs and startup founders have stayed behind on Twitter and didn’t transfer over. I understand that deleting your audience is not easy (for reference I did it & I know the pain of restarting) but it comes across as a deep weakness if not moral misalignment.
