@trevorlasn @Dominus_Kelvin Stay away from server less database offering. The pricing is unpredictable. It isn't too difficult to setup postgres with backups to cloud flare/aws all running behind tailscale/wireguard. Claude/codex could even help with this.

@Dominus_Kelvin Solo founder running Neon + Railway + Vercel. Thought about going full VPS but every hour debugging infra is an hour not shipping features. How many people who switch actually stick with it after 6 months?

Replace Vercel with Docker + VPS. Replace Netlify with Docker + VPS. Replace PlanetScale with PostgreSQL on a VPS. Replace Neon with PostgreSQL on a VPS. Replace Upstash with Redis on a VPS. Replace Meilisearch Cloud with Meilisearch on a VPS. Replace Algolia with Meilisearch on a VPS. Replace Supabase with Postgres + Auth + Storage on a VPS. Replace Railway with Docker + VPS. Replace Render with Docker + VPS. Replace Fly.io with Docker + VPS. All you really need: • Docker • A cheap VPS • PostgreSQL • Redis • SMTP

Why this matters for crime policy: Most interventions target foot soldiers (arrests, deterrence, job training). But if it's a tournament, the policy lever is: reduce returns to winning. Target gang leaders, not foot soldiers. Collapse the prize structure.

@DavidKPiano Non-coding architects have been one of the biggest banes in the programming industry of all time. People claim they have met ones that are good, I have never met one that is good and I would be happy to work for

sorry but opus 4.6 is a completely retarded and braindead model. i only tolerate it because it writes better prose, but the levels of sloppiness and reward hacking are through the roof.

🧪 Experimental: Use OpenCode with Claude Code, Codex, and Amp - Universal coding agent control - HTTP API for sandboxed agents - OpenCode TUI, web UI, SDK Available in Sandbox Agent SDK 0.1.6

@MichaelAsiedu_ Without users and sales those are meaningless

African startups should stop defaulting to AWS and Kubernetes. Get a VPS on Hetzner, deploy with Coolify, and start experimenting until you start making money. Oh, and when you do start making money, still stay there!

Next iteration of the Vibe Coder's Keyboard - now with Voice Mode!

Unpopular opinion: Unless you’re just prototyping, you should aim to understand as close to 100% of production code generated by LLMs. Yes, all of it. Effective mental models are still important for humans to sustainably maintain and evolve a codebase via prompting alone.

@Austen Indeed.

@flybayer this is like waterfall development though. I just don’t buy into this :) it doesn’t work, as you implement something you want to continuously refine and change it

I haven’t actually look at the ralph stuff something about it just feels wrong to me. like a new level of slop by just getting whatever works I still don’t understand why you don’t want to be deeply involved in the creative tech process

@skeptrune This hasn't been my experience. I iterate faster in cursor than in cc. It seems easier to quickly course correct an agent when it appears to be going off in cursor bcos there is better visibility. And most importantly, you don't have to worry about getting banned unlike in cc

here's my explanation for why people use Claude Code instead of Cursor

And this desire to be led also includes a need to be inspired by your leader’s charisma and slogans. Such extrinsic inspiration is foreign to (and ineffective for) high agency people, as their inspiration comes largely from within.

A lot of high agency people who would make great executives would make terrible middle managers, because they don't understand the "desire to be led" that many people have—because they have never experienced this themselves

why do you use both cursor and opencode together when cursor has an entire agent view?

I got a mixed set of reactions after posting the latest iteration of my off grid solar setup. This is a project I started almost a decade ago in 2016 with very modest hardware a 750VA inverter, about 400W of solar panels, and roughly 2.5kWh of battery storage. Throughout this journey I have been deliberate about sharing what I learned, what worked, what failed, and why certain design decisions were made. The goal was never aesthetics or status but understanding energy systems by building and iterating from first principles. Unsurprisingly, people interpreted the post in different ways. Some saw it as showing off. Others correctly pointed out that the present configuration is not affordable for the average household. A few framed it as evidence of systemic failure, while others went as far as accusing me of contributing to Nigeria being a failed state or calling me a sellout which I found ironic. In reality this project is simply an engineering experiment carried out over time. It reflects incremental learning, and a desire to solve practical problems with resources available. Below is a photo of version 0.1 of the system, where it all started. This is the story of that journey. 🧵
