Two small things I added to my Claude Code workflow that for some reason give me great pleasure 🤷‍♂️ 1. Alias for starting CC with worktree and plan mode 2. Playing a subtle sound (Blow) every time CC is patiently waiting for me to act on something in some buried tab (hooks FTW)

People are a bit like particles. They behave differently when they are being observed.

Having said that, the main reason why I’m trying to succeed in building startups is to not have to ever update my CV again. Freedom comes second 😅

npm install openai - I guess I can add “AI Developer” to my CV now? 🤖

@yonatanbd Haha, I do have an idea yes 😉 Hope it all went smoothly!

@IraklisAlex I think you know what this is about 😉

migrating from redux to react-query

@yongfook And in case you’re also looking for a new guitar, the LavaME is an awesome travel guitar 👌

@yongfook All you need is an audio interface (Scarlett 2i2 is more than enough) and a pair of good (for live music) headphones, AudioTechnica is a good brand, but there are many others. We should virtually jam sometime 🤘

I'm sure I've got some guitarists here in my twitter fam. Last time I plugged in a guitar was into a Marshall amp - what equipment do I need these days to plug into my laptop with earphones, to not annoy the neighbours?

I’ve learned a ton from hearing other builders’ stories, so it feels great to be able to give back to the community 🙌 Thank you @GrowthMentorHQ and @FotiPanagio for having me 🙏 Check out the episode here: growthmentor.com/podcasts/start…

I really like the dynamic hero text on @GitBookIO when landing from a "Powered By" link👌

@PierreDeWulf Couldn’t agree more 💯

Early optimization is bad, yes. But some things need to be thought through from day 1: - data model - clean invoicing system - easy-to-update marketing website - create proper company/user accounts for your tools Take the time to create a system that allows you to move fast.

@yongfook Super cool 👌 Next step to build the equivalent of humaaans.com for 🐻

Just published live! bannerbear.com/help/

Updating some of our branding illustrations across the site today 😅🐻

@yongfook Based on your requirements, you should probably consider the UAE, and specifically Dubai, as well. In many ways it is similar to Singapore, at least from my experience visiting Singapore twice.

Designing my post-nomad life is my biggest top-of-mind life issue right now. I don't want to country-hop endlessly. I want to have a base somewhere, pay all required taxes, but have the freedom to travel whenever and for as long as I want. Not as simple as you might think!

@yongfook Nice, enjoy! I love Singapore! Watched the Singapore episode of “Somebody Feed Phil” on Netflix the other day and some of the places looked unreal (especially the Aussie BBQ place). Here’s his itinerary: tripresa.com/post/somebody-…

About to take my first flight in 2+ years! Visiting Singapore to see family and friends.

@raydargham @MorningBrew Interesting podcast episode on the subject: podcasts.apple.com/gr/podcast/thr…

Restaurants should just pay their staff better and not pass it on to the customer.

So you present your users with a multiple option question on why they use your product and you see that the vast majority select A. Oh, and A happens to be the first option. Try shuffling the options every time and see if the trend remains.

@yongfook Very well deserved 👏 I've been following (and enjoying thoroughly) your journey and content! $1M ARR is getting closer!

Bannerbear just hit $40,000 MRR Fully bootstrapped, 490 customers, 6 full time team members, 2.5 years after starting from zero 🐻

@raydargham @hussainanjar @zeoagency 😂😂😂

@okassim @Nomod Congrats 👏 Very well deserved!

👋 I’m super excited to officially announce @Nomod, an idea that we’ve been quietly working on since late 2019 Nomod is a beautifully easy way for merchants around the world to accept card payments on their phone with no extra hardware 💳📲

I used to think that starting a business meant starting with an idea, and then try to make it a reality. Later I realized that it's better to start with my preferred lifestyle, and then try to find viable ideas that fit in it.
