I watched the demo. I think what I meant was an hands off solution. You post on X and it automatically reposts it Bsky. You post on Bsky and automatically reposts on X. Within minutes or seconds.
I think having the button is great for free users. Paid can have it automated. What do you think?

How about a tool that syncs posts between the platforms automatically? You post anywhere and it gets posted everywhere

Sometimes you donāt even have to build anything but a landing page and a waitlist. The idea is to make posts on Reddit, hackernews, X and see how people react to it. If thereās energy and people get excited you got a good start.
Then you build it. That saves hours of dev time

I think the new age advice is gauging interest before building it.
Many engineers build stuff that people donāt want and/or are unable to market it

One thing that is cool about nextjs is the integrated caching. First time a user goes to a page it loads new content, second time the content is already loaded and itās cached.
Definitely possible

All true. Cheap customers are also the most demanding.
The problem of high ticket customers is that thereās less of them and they are harder to find if you donāt already belong to them.

What did you change on the marketing side of things?

Itās visually appealing. I like the logo and the cause. Itās a large project! (many features to support).
I am wondering what is the feature that you think your target audience REALLY wants to see out of all those? What is the core one?

What Iām seeing: a hub for anything related to ethical coffee.
A user can:
- find ethical coffee shops
- participate to events
- volunteer?
- subscribe to get ethical coffee beans (and tea?) delivered.
- you can scan products
All wrapped by gamification and stats

The day after preheat cast iron pot at 350 F (176 C).
Put the dough in without moving it too much.
Bake 25 minutes covered.
Bake 30 minutes uncovered.
Take it out and wait for an hour (if you are strong enough š¤¤).
Cut and enjoy with some butter and salt š

Mix all dry ingredients together.
Put water. Put sourdough starter. Massage until everything is mixed together.
4 rounds or stretch and fold every 25 minutes.
Ferment for 6 hours.
Fold one last time to shape it.
Put it in the fridge covered overnight.

Love the project tho. Iāve been thinking of getting a tiny 3d printer to make tiny vases for plants as my non-money-making hobby

If you are referring to ads: I think those are of course effective. They just require money.. something you might want to spend until you understand your customer very well.

From what Iām learning the best way is to try everything/everywhere.
You might think you have an idea where your customers sit but you never actually know until you get the word out and get feedback.

Less code. More talking!
Something Iāve been trying to learn as a software engineer from the core

How did you get this metric there? Trying to look into widgets but canāt find it

Started a project not caring for it. Built all in AWS. A year later after free tier is over it they started charging me $200 a month.. with the app making barely $100 MRR.
Keep cost down from the start.
Thereās so any PaaS with generous free tiers nowadays. (Supabase, Vercelā¦)

Havenāt used cypress. From what I see it seems thereās limitation on their free tier. Playwright is free

Great for auth. Amazing for database. Not great for storage.
Docs can be confusing for local development but they have a very generous free tier.

I mostly agree. The reason why certifications exist is the reassurance that a ātrustedā third party has verified that you have a specific skill. It makes the life for someone who is trying to hire easier.
Now do they reflect actually skill? Probably not but they show at least some effort

That also includes less web dev stuff like:
- capacitor.js (native layer)
- revenuecat (in app payment)
Should I pull the plug and do it?

Use Posthog! Works a lot better than GAnalytics and thereās less headaches

What we came up with is splitting the reward of a completed challenge into two:
- Trophies. Odiseyās consumable currency, used to skip, extend expiration dates, etc.
- EXP. Non consumable. Will get you on the leaderboard. Signifies status

The issue here is that our communication is broken. The word āpointsā is connected to something that you earn and naturally something that you spend. Currency, no status.
Examples are gems in Duolingo. Miles in credit cards.
