We are inundated by "for you" information digested and spat out by profit-maximizing algorithms. There needs to be more done opposing that. People are wasting their potential because this problem is not solved.

Is there a way to see a list of all those personalized playlists?

Spotify is cooking with their recommendation algorithms...they have 5 different personalized playlists just for "Gardening"???

Congrats on the launch! 2 reasons I like it: 1. Doesn't stop dictation until you release the hotkey 2. Works in the terminal (wink wink CLI Agents)

@arvidkahl @pababalle 🤣🤣

@pababalle This ironically sounds 100% like AI 🤣 Seriously though: “read every post of this 200-page blog and write down the main keywords for each episode, aggregate in a a table and come back with the 10 most common topics” is not creative work.

With Claude Code, it is now possible to have a permanent at-the-very-least-intern-level assistant doing 24/7 research jobs for you and also building the software tooling to act on that data. Admin panels, automated media conversion, building ideal libraries, and monitoring competitors. All that and more. Between MCPs, Cloud for Chrome, and Skills, if you don't have your agentic tool churn through your work backlog all day long, you are quite literally missing out. Because every day, more and more of your competitors will do exactly this. And while a lot of this currently is clunky, haphazard, and DIY, you can be absolutely sure that this will be commoditized within the next six months.

@ikoichi Whatever works! But even satellite internet would probably be less expensive (looking at Starlink) 😁

Everyone says: “You need to disconnect during vacation.” Me: I did. From the hotel Wi-Fi. Now I’m debugging API calls using Greek mobile data that costs €3 per megabyte. Living the SaaS founder dream. 🏝️😂

@filippkowalski I guess this works for non vibe coding mobile devs too 😀 I'm Charmander 🎒

So you’ve decided to become a vibe mobile developer. Great! “Now, young vibe-coder, it’s time to choose your starter path!” 🌱 Bulbasaur – The Scattershot Indie You’ll release many small apps in just a few days, relying on App Store Optimization to carry them. You put many eggs in one basket. ➤ Pros: Quick to launch, low risk, easy to try new ideas. ➤ Cons: Slow. You do little-to-no marketing. You're at mercy of the ASO algorithm. 🔥 Charmander – The One-App Gambit This path starts weak but has great potential if trained with care. You focus on a single app, pouring all your time into features and marketing. Meta, TikTok, Google Ads, ASA. It’s all in your arsenal. You put one egg in one basket. ➤ Pros: If successful, your app becomes a powerful force. You're not limited to one traffic source and move much faster. ➤ Cons: Risky… if it fails, you may be burned to ashes (including your money). 💧 Squirtle – The Balanced Builder You somewhat combine the two above. You try many apps, but you spend time polishing, improving, and marketing them. ➤ Pros: Consistent, less risky, easier to sustain long-term. ➤ Cons: Progress is slower, and you may feel left behind by risk-takers. “Choose wisely, trainer! Your destiny as a vibe mobile developer begins now!”

Lots of simple tasks. Lots of freedom. Lots of inspiration. This is what I want to enable through my work.

Interestingly, a feed of randomly sorted content that you previously saved yourself on a platform is often more inspiring that the feed of that platform

Lovable just raised $200M at a $1.8B valuation led by Accel. This all started unexpectedly with me calling my friend at 6AM to go for a walk. I've never shared this story before: (thread)

Try to leave some meaningful work for yourself for when your kids leave the household

Don't rush it

"We make progress by eliminating things, by removing the superfluous" -Steve Jobs

Just by asking the right questions repeatedly, and with a pinch of desire for a solution, the brain slowly starts to construct solutions like a kid playing play doh, creating fully novel thoughts for you out of thoughts you know

"Tech companies dont understand creativity. They don't appreciate intuitive thinking. Like the ability of an A&R guy at a music label to listen to a hundred artists and have a feel for which five might be successful." -Steve Jobs (Isaacson, ch. 31)

When the board saw what Jobs and Johnson had built, they unanimously approved going ahead. It would, the board agreed, take the relationship between retailing and brand image to a new level. It would also ensure consumers would not see Apple as a commodity product, like Dell.

Drexler gave Jobs advice to secretly build a store near Apple Campus, furnish it completely, and hang out there until it felt comfortable. It [became] a haven where Jobs could come up with innovations by touching and seeing the options as they evolved.
