First email set up for my new domain, mailbox ready. Finally… Back to actual coding instead of configuration. #buildinpublic

@SeaCatWiz I was in the Caribbean. 🏝️

@dennis_journal Wow this is serious😮where are you located now?

Starting tomorrow: I’m out. Weather here is absolute trash, so I’m heading somewhere warm. Sun > gray skies. Decision made. #buildinpublic

Back to work! Just bought my first domain: feedback-flow360.de Officially sounds like a real business now. Next step: Set up a proper email so I can talk to customers without looking like a random Gmail account. #buildinpublic

Update on my Raspberry Pi backup setup for my MacBook and iPhone photos. It’s been running for weeks now — no missing data, no hiccups, no drama. Fully automatic. Quietly doing its job 24/7. Honestly? That’s how backup should feel. #BuildInPublic

Wrote some SQL again today for the first time in a while. Loved merging data from different sources. Ended up with an automated data flow. Stuff like this makes me happy! #buildinpublic

Big fan of Grafana. It makes visualizing data almost stupidly simple. Connect your data source, build a dashboard, and suddenly numbers actually tell a story instead of just sitting in a spreadsheet. Clean, fast, powerful. Exactly how analytics tools should be. #buildinpublic

Building a SaaS to create long-term freedom. Currently spending 80% of my time debugging Google Sheets. This is exactly how I imagined the glamorous life of a tech founder. #buildinpublic

Currently looking for a new job. It has to allow me to build my own business on the side. Two options: Big corporate role: Stable team, solid pay. Or mid-sized company: I’d be the expert, high autonomy, less structure. Security vs. freedom. Still deciding.

Day 2 – Google Review SaaS Exports will vary by customer system. I’m standardizing everything so the data flows into Google Sheets, structure is ready. The real challenge? Getting clean data out of the customer’s system in the first place. That’s where it gets interesting.

Heard a podcast about Apple will integrate Gemini into their devices. If AI becomes native on everyday hardware, that’s the real gateway for mass adoption of AI agents. Next logical step? Routine office jobs built around repetitive digital tasks won’t look that safe anymore.

Day 1 – Google Review SaaS The process is set: → Export booking data → Sync to Google Sheets → Daily check If an appointment actually happened, an automatic mail goes out asking for a Google review. Simple flow, real value. Now let’s see if reality agrees.

I want to help clients get better Google reviews. Idea: Contact their customers after an appointment and ask for a review. First step: Design the process on my Raspberry Pi. #BuildInPublic

I’ve never really worked with Git before. Figured it’s about time, so I set up my first repository. Let’s see how badly I mess this up… Or if I finally get it right. #BuildInPublic

Starting my first real SaaS project! This sketch is literally my current master plan. Simple on paper. Let’s see how reality reacts. I’ll share the whole journey here: From messy notes to (hopefully) a working SaaS. #BuildInPublic

Had to make a change in an ancient VB script today. The kind of code where you’re not fixing bugs, you’re performing digital archaeology. Surprisingly, it still runs. Slightly less surprisingly, nobody knows why. #BuildInPublic

Currently reading “Daemon” by Daniel Suarez. Dark, fast-paced, and properly nerdy. The heavy IT angle makes it feel like a tech nightmare with entertainment value, pretty much perfect for a Sunday evening. Any recommendations for other IT / tech-related novels worth reading?

Gave a talk today about the architecture of data management systems, data warehouses, and ETL processes. Kind of crazy how much I’ve learned over the past few years. Looking back at it all, you realize it’s actually okay to be proud of what you’ve built. #BuildInPublic

I’ve been thinking about offering this dashboard to other influencers as well. Brutally honest question: Do you think something like this actually has a market, or is it just a nice-to-have for data nerds like me? #BuildInPublic

Built a Grafana dashboard for a friend. It shows his current Instagram follower count in real time and updates every 30 minutes, plus a clean timeline of how the numbers evolve over time. What do you think? socialmediavisu.grafana.net/public-dashboa… #buildinpublic
