@sobedominik it's a rendering issue i've been having as well, try to resize the window/terminal by a few pixels, it should fix itself (until it breaks again ofc)

nice it's getting worse (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

Claude Code, are you OK? Need any help? AI starting to encrypt their own output.

@gianfrancopiana you're on a roll man! congrats 🔥

This was super fun to work on. More to come!

it's 7pm on a friday, it's gonna be a rainy weekend, i just got overhyped for an idea and straight up bought the domain it's for milan, it's for the builders, it's for those with the money to meet those with the energy get your fingers ready milan X ppl, we're in this together

Life pro tip: i cleaned up 100gb on my mac with two simple CLI tools, 5 min of time, and by only deleting cached files and such. And since we're all much more in the terminal these days i thought it was worth sharing: ✽ npkill.js.org ❃ github.com/tw93/Mole

woke up this morning with an idea for a little tool that will allow ppl to follow the winter olympics feel like a breeeeze (pun totally intended 😬) but hey, they start tomorrow, so better be fast. building right now and shipping before end of day ⛷︎

it's kinda weird how @telegram could have surfed the ai personal assistant bandwagon with more native integrations and UIs, and just... didn't. there's probably still space for custom apps to be born in this space piggybacking on the telegram apis, but still... weird

Now, it wouldn't be a legit first post if I didn't try to sell you something. So I'll just quietly plug my own new shiny website where you can see some of the things I've done in the past years ↪ albertogiunta.com Until next time, happy making! Albi

Alright then, this was just a little tiny post to break the ice and get out of the shadows. More on learnings, freelancing, making products, the amazing people I crossed paths with, and joining communities soon.

How long does it take to feel like you have enough to say to finally start sharing things online? Eh, how would I know, I'm not there yet for sure. But I've done stuff, and have at least *some* things to share ↴

@santonocitomark dumb question alert: the ai is the interviewer or the interviewee? asking cause it seemed obvious at first but i gave it a second thought and it kinda worked and had some sense both ways 🤔

Life hack: I use AI to simulate customer conversations before building features. This cut my development waste by 60% and increased my hit rate on "must-have" vs "nice-to-have."

@dvassallo the non-italian mind will never comprehend 🥲 jk, it's equally hard for the itailan mind

What? 🤯

Still enough time if you employ the 80/20 rule

@jmduke makes a lot of sense! did you consider the cleanshot way as an alternative to the styling? i find it very clean and clear

I'm not sold on the highlight styling yet, but give this a spin and let me know if you love/loathe it: docs.buttondown.com/change-username

experimenting with using iFrames in docs. feels really fun!

@MaxRovensky gotta shoot your shots, very curious to know why (disclaimer, i live there its always interesting to see it with outsider eyes as well)

Milan should rename itself to Clowntown

@sobedominik ye i think it'd be super interesting!

Should I make a 🎞️ short mini video series on how I approach building and shipping an app? So I had this shower thought 💭🚿 There's this app idea I can't stop thinking about. I think I can vibe code it in ~ a week and the idea would be to take you along my process of how I come up with an idea, how I approach the design, all the way hopefully getting the first sale. The emphasis here is on actually launching a real product not just the dev side of it. Focus likely would be my design approach (I know a lot of you have been asking) and approaching the marketing side. It would be obviously be free - just not sure about the best format yet. Perhaps 5 or so videos on how I approach different parts in the journey. Let me know in the comments✌️ if you'd be interested in it and also if there's something particularly you'd be interested to learn from me.

@wbetiago just curious, what you mean by "knowing how it works"? e.g. on my side, after i've started tinkering with rules and i saw a gigantic leap in performance

I take this back! New cursor is absurd once you know how it works! It just does all my code

@wbetiago @indiefounderpod keep it up man!

It's been too long since I have last published a @indiefounderpod episode and I really miss it! So much to talk about...

@a7fort mazing, thanks! will keep you updated if i end up pulling it off 🚀

If you can find one or two people to help you organise it, it’ll make things easier. Also speak to many venues before choosing, some might ask you for $$$ but many are happy to host for free. Apart from that it’s mostly a case of marketing the event and pulling from your network/friends so you know worst case scenario you have 10 people in a room

Making money online is both super exciting and also very, very hard. We've all seen the "start a million dollar business in 48 hours", "how I got to $4k MRR in a week", etc, etc. The reality is very different. You're constantly double guessing what you're doing, worrying that it's all going to fall apart, and looking for new ways to grow. Somewhere along the way you have some wins, and those keep you going - combined with the freedom of not having a boss and a 9-5. It's a hard business and often a lonely one. You need support! You need to talk to other actual human beings, in person. It does help. This is why me and @jonnyburch started the Found Up North events. We did our first event in Feb and it was so good to find other people on the same boat. You could call it a support group for people addicted to creating online businesses. On Thursday 1st of May we're meeting again, at the Ape and Apple in Manchester. If you're making money online, or trying to, come along! It'll be great.
