corgiquest.com/tools/sitter two versions: 🖨️ the regular one — clean printable page, fill it in, hand it off. no email, no account, draft saves to your browser only. 📷 the illustrated one (like the image above) — currently in beta, waitlist + email to try it. both are free!

made a free thing 🌿 one page for everything your dog sitter needs — meals, meds, emergency contacts, house rules, the quirks only you know. print it, text the link, or copy it as plain text. no app, no signup. your draft stays on your device. (see how I did that below 👇)

Hot take: most dog owners do not need more advice. They need help being consistent. That is the part people struggle with most.

Having a reactive dog is one of the most emotionally exhausting things and people really do not talk about that enough.

Kiro? Trae? Antigravity? Feel like all conversations are dominated by the "C's"

Does anyone use any AI coding tools apart from Codex, Claude or Cursor? I've been wanting to branch out and try something new for a weekend

I’ve been an engineer for about 10 years, and one thing I really like about AI is how it helps with blank page syndrome. Sometimes the hardest part is not the work. It’s just getting started. Having something to react to changes that a lot. Anyone agree?

One key thing to point out is this I've been mostly working on new greenfield stuff where velocity and bringing our tool to the market is key. In my case, we do want to go blazing fast

At some point, I become the bottleneck. Context switching across 4 different threads is hard, and a lot of software work still gets slowed down by team decisions, and all the other human stuff. But yeah, in real-world use, I absolutely believe the productivity gain is real.

I genuinely feel like AI makes me 2 to 3x more effective as a developer. I usually have 3 to 4 agents running at once. 10x for code generation and getting onboarded into a new repo 2x for code reviews 1.5x for bug fixing The reason it is not even higher is pretty simple.

Made this account a while ago, disappeared, and now I’m back like that was part of the plan. I’m a software engineer, dog owner, husband, and someone who definitely spends too much time thinking about how things should work. Expect spicy hot takes! :D

I’m building Corgi Quest because my dog Bumi started struggling after I fell out of training. He got so overwhelmed he nipped me, and it scared me. I just want him to feel safe and confident, so I’m creating a tiny RPG app to help us stay consistent again.

Ok be very real, I am almost scared to ask this... If we do CYC26 who is coming? Don't y'all make me start going through this stress? Who is showing up IN PERSON? 🤔
