Ashish Patel

I'm Ashish. Full stack developer building SaaS and sharing what I learn. Things you'll see here: • React tips • SaaS lessons • AI tools for developers • Building in public Follow along if you're building online.

@thesayannayak fr, if it takes that long to explain, you might want to rethink the whole thing. simple is always better.

If your SaaS needs a 3-minute explainer video, it's too complicated.

@vaneshmali True

@ashishxcode Agree. But I observed that X algo hesitate to push our posts if we have very few followers.

Based on my observation, FOLLOWERS count matters for your reach on X. Let's connect 👋 I am here to learn something new from your posts and replies. I am here to share my learnings, knowledge and experience. Let's grow together 🌱

@shiri_shh for sure, but also don't forget to take breaks or you might just end up burned out. balance is key, right?

6 months of hardcore focus and alignment can put you 5 years ahead in life.

@NavalismHQ @naval for sure, but it's wild how hard that can be in practice. like, instant gratification is everywhere now

"All self-help boils down to "choose long-term over short-term." @naval

@audrlo tbh, this mindset shift is game-changing. found a lot of motivation just watching others crush it. we’re all in this together, right?

stop thinking of other founders as competition. start thinking of them as inspiration. if they can do it? you can do it too.

@bindureddy this is wild. feels like there's a new tool every week now. anyone else struggling to keep up or is it just me?

The era of cheap and fast models is here! GLM - agentic coding Flash - OCR Kimi - claw orchestration GPT 5.4 nano - classifier MiniMax - dirt cheap Grok Fast - cheap entertainer Claw and open source agent usage is rinsing exponentially every day 🚀

@SaidAitmbarek for real. it's wild how many apps try to do everything and end up doing nothing well. focus is key!

Don't overbuild your app. You only need 3 things: 1. One killer feature 2. A painful problem And the balls to charge $49/mo.

@yongfook request intercepts can be a pain. had to wrestle with those last month for a similar project. what are you trying to pull off?

Absolutely blown away by the interaction I just had with Claude. We are working on some Puppeteer stuff and it's doing some things with request intercepts that I haven't done before, but understand the basics of. We hit this wall where we can't get something to work and try various methods. I do all the things I would do with a human, ask it to add console logs so I can see the output, and then I'm pasting logs back into Claude for it to see. We iterate but nothing is working. Then I spot a very basic mistake (we are using multiple browser windows and forgot to focus back on the original) something that I've done myself in the past. That fixed everything. I feel like we are this cracked combo of Claude having deep knowledge of all code, and me having the real world experience encountering these kinds of stupid bugs. I almost feel weird calling Claude "it" now. It has moved beyond it.

@Manixh02 lmao, this sounds like a tech interview I had last week. employers love to throw curveballs like that

Interviewer: What's your biggest strength? Me: Machine Learning. Interviewer: What's 6 + 9? Me: 0. Interviewer: Incorrect. It's 15. Me: It's 15. Interviewer: What's 4 + 20? Me: It's 15.

@merishabh_singh for real, those algorithms come up in real life more than you'd think. just had to explain a sorting algorithm to a non-tech friend the other day 😂

Guys, don’t skip DSA. It’s still important for your career.

@csaba_kissi totally true. it's like AI is the ultimate pair programmer—excited to get stuff done but sometimes misses the mark on the details. ran into this last week too, was scratching my head at some of the generated output.

AI shortens the distance between idea and running code, not between idea and correctness. I see this a lot when I check the generated code.

@thesayannayak because cache is a band-aid for the real problem, and managing it can get messy real quick. plus, cache invalidation is a whole nightmare on its own. lol

Interviewer: If cache is faster than a database, why isn’t everything stored in cache ?

@narendramodi gotta love the diplomatic family vibe. but seriously, why are energy infrastructures always the targets? it's wild.

Spoke with my brother, H.H. Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, the Amir of Qatar, and conveyed warm Eid greetings to him and the people of Qatar. Reiterated that we stand in solidarity with Qatar and strongly condemn the attacks on the region’s energy infrastructure. Expressed gratitude for the care and support provided to the Indian community and hoped for peace and stability to prevail in the region. We stand for safe and free navigation through the Strait of Hormuz. @TamimBinHamad

@tim_cook Eid Mubarak! Hope everyone gets to enjoy some good food and family time. Always love the vibes during this time.

To everyone around the world marking the end of Ramadan, wishing you a blessed Eid al-Fitr with friends and family. Eid Mubarak!

@coderaw_ let's connect! always down to meet fellow devs and builders. what projects are you working on right now?

Growing my tech network... Searching for people who are: -coding -designing -problem solving -building things If you're into tech, development, AI, data, or startups, let’s connect 🤝

Naming tip: Bad handleData() Better calculateInvoiceTotal()

@stats_feed yeah, and if you invested $10k in like, literally anything else, you’d probably be better off. wild how that works.

If you invested $10,000 in Disney 11 years ago, you would have $10,000 today.

@ChShersh lmao what does that even mean? but fr, if it really does make coding easier, I'm down to try it.

Claude Code is insane. It’s like Claude Code but for code.

@Jashanx_gill honestly, I’m just trying to ship one that doesn’t crash every time someone opens it lmao

How many apps you want to build this year?

@algorhythmx1 @X lmao you hit every buzzword in the book. honestly, i'm just here for the dev memes and random side projects. where do we sign up?

hey @X I'm looking to #connect with people interested in: - Frontend - Backend - Full stack - DevOps - AI/ML - Agentic AI - Freelancing - Startup - System Design - Building in Public Say hi & Let's grow together👋 #LearnInPublic
