Password auth is a headache. I finally ripped it out of my Android project! Switched to passwordless Google OAuth2: Client sends APK-signed request Server validates with Google Issue JWT + RSA-signed refresh token Much more secure. 🔒 #BuildInPublic #AndroidDev

@pcshipp Are you letting users login and sign up with Google or any other Oauth2 providers

Why do users hate login screens? Around 40% of my users drop off as soon as they reach the login screen. Is offering a guest mode the right solution? How do you solve this problem?

how many domains do you own? (be honest)

it’s always easy in hindsight. but, u gotta play the hand in front of u. ⚡️

Working with packet tracer is actually fun it's good to get out of the IDE from time to time and learn other stuff

@jayvraavi You solved a great problem!

my little social app just crossed 2M users and $2M ARR 🥹🎉 still no employees/cofounders + 100% bootstrapped some days this still doesnt feel real 2 years ago nomadtable was just an idea i wrote in my notes app on my solo trip now it’s the go to way that solo travelers connect somehow i turned this crazy dream into a reality. you can really do anything you want if you’re passionate enough

As much as people hate on LinkedIn I did get my first tech interview by being visible on there and someone reaching out. Don't sleep on it exhaust ALL options for your job hunt.

@ben_sage I'm still in the stone age my last web app I built with vanilla js html and css

Nobody currently debates web frameworks. Now it’s just AI models.

@pamelawright Most people in fields that can be automated prefer Claude by far!

@SethWrightTech why?

what companies will be doing even better 12-18 months from now? ⚡️

@Alexislamouv Haha good attention to detail! The packet capture is actually of malware traffic to a C2 server and sending signal every minute on the dot..... And I like Gemini it's free

@SethWrightTech You’re using Gemini and not Codex ? 🤣

Can you spot what looks suspicious here??

@ZodonLore Its true cat and mouse and nothing is truly safe that's across all domains..... everything and everyone has a vulnerability somewhere

Sophisticated technology cannot outpace systemic vulnerability. Loopholes persist because modern innovation remains anchored to fundamental, low-level indiscipline across hardware architecture, network protocols, and software engineering.

@TheGeorgePu That's a deep lesson sometimes pride gets in the way of $ € £

We were paying $5,000 a month per GPU to serve our own models. To a handful of users. Models a laptop could run. Then I put $100 into an API account to test the best open model. 12 days of heavy agentic testing later, I'd spent $31. We weren't serving our models because it was right for users. We served them because they were ours. There's a word for that, and it isn't strategy.

@ZodonLore And the users have no idea what lengths you had to go through to make it seamless and no visible lag

Built this dual Instagram-style feed and TikTok video feed entirely solo in Java/Kotkin with a native C viewport engine, ExoPlayer and RecyclerView. Simultaneous players pre-warming the next video while the current one plays with concurrent containers. Smooth at any scroll speed.

@ZodonLore Thanks for steering me in the right direction I looked into it and it's the perfect solution for my use case

@SethWrightTech Custom WorkManager network constraints are a lifesaver for this.

That last 10% of building a app is always the hardest, I'm dealing with the edge cases for offline functionality on android cause the Internet may not always be accessible

@Palak3312 Less productive I like playing stuff in background on speakers whether a podcast house music or rap instrumentals

Be honest... does coding in a café actually make you more productive? ☕💻

@DeepStarts To work in the data centers keeping the infrastructure for the AI running

Software Developers, what’s your backup plan if AI writes better code than you in 3 years?

@dagorenouf They can copy your hardware but with hardware you can lead with physical durability and quality I love the pivot

I have zero interest in building software anymore. AI makes it too easy to copy your ideas. The next thing I build will be hardware.

@ishanxtwt Android can play Spotify for 2 hours on 4% as long as I don't skip to many songs iPhone could never...
