We raised $3M pre-seed and moved to SF.
AI is coming for your job. Maybe in 5 years. Maybe in 15. Nobody knows.
But we know this: no great career move ever came from a job board. They came from someone saying “you two should meet.”
That’s what @getclera does.

We are looking for a designer. Colors of the brand and polish some user flows.
Can you recommend someone? If you’re a designer, please DM with your portfolio/ latest work samples.
Thank you!

We've raised a small VC round. Guess what almost killed the deal #bubble Community. We are not there yet.
Found a CTO, built up a coding team - back to writing code now. What I am missing the most? Speed.

I am hacking away a NFT analyzer app in my evenings/ nights, as I am seeing it is getting more and more attention. Even though crypto and NFTs are out there for a while, I still think especially the NFT market is in its very early shoes.

I’d love to accelerate my reading and make it more effective. Thinking of starting a book club..

I am always striving for clean UIs and I see many do the same mistake. While we are used to super clean UIs from huge companies, we often forget, how much time in terms of tests, manpower, capital and more spent into the design development. This is not a one-man job. 1/x

While I've first designed to only have the app for me (to inform me on good trades), I have decided to make it public.
Comment, like and/or retweet, if you'd like to have access. I will put you on a list then and inform you, as soon as its ready.

Do a breakdown please - how many clients, amount received by clients, hours per client / month.
Adding: I was at a similar rate, however none of your advices would have helped. Network is key, cold outreach is BS from my humble opinion.

I was recently asked when I'll be on a trading card. No idea, but here we are, still normalizing data.

It's been a while since I implemented that last - quick marketplace search regarding Skeleton Loader should bring it up though. Btw, different approach is to build the loader as an element and show if a repeating group is loading.

Spending hours of debugging, no result, no fix. Frustrated, doing some sports and getting food.
Looking at the code afterward, finding it instantly.
Always, but struck me today again. Some things do not change, apparently.

I forgot the beauty of this feeling. Who can relate?
Especially in times of Vibe Coding, where so much stuff is added, simplifying gets so important.
Do it for the future of your codebase, please.

Switching self-hosted @typesense to managed - less trouble and - at first glance - pricing seams alright.
I'll circle back to that.

Holy. Still writing scripts.
However good learning:
I do like Deno local scripts. Quite neat, no hassle with TS <> JS conversion, modules, etc.

Happy to join the #30DaysInPublic course by @MeetKevon - looking forward!!

Hackathon update from last weekend:
Met a ton of good people, all building. Left Day 1 at 1:30am in the morning. Makes me bullish on Berlin.

By the way: @bubble would profit from an OS, even a BSL, strategy. Utilizing the power of the community to help improve the product, having a process to comment and PR/MR directly on Code. Many products are running this strategy successfully - financially and issueless.

Debugged and wrote to support. While drafting a detailed ticket, found the issue.
Well, well.

Hacking in Lima Update - one week in:
* Good progress and strategic discussions
* Avg. Workday: 9am-12pm, with 1-2 hours of break
* Lines shipped: Couple of 10ks (any good way to track that?)
* Best food: Cerviche
* Best drink: Pisco (one is more than enough for me)
* Mood: Great 🚀

I discovered, to my amazement, that all through history there had been resis-tance-and bitter, exaggerated, last-ditch resistance-to every significant technological change that had taken place on earth. Usually the resistance came from those groups who stood to lose influence, status, money as a result of the change. Although they never advanced this as their reason for resisting it. It was always the good of humanity that rested upon their hearts.

We’ve been hacking together in a house (just the 4 of us) for a month in LATAM.
Thinking of sharing a full rundown + key learnings from the experience — worth it?

Just realized I am working since more than 30 days through. No a single day off, not stopping - feeling like a mixture of a steamlock and some sociopath. Hired three employees though, should help but let's see.

Not surprising. Media distorts reality and people are doing a lot for attention from absolute strangers. Often wondering why, but there is a lot of research to it.

Some years back I didn’t like fundraising, but it was part of the job. Meanwhile, especially with 🏃 a profitable company, this seems even more obscure to me. Ofc you need to raise for going big - we will go big. But time needed, especially engineering time, seems like a waste.

At every end of the last year/ start of the new year, I shut down and do an intensive reflection - what went well, what not, where do I see myself at the of 2024, etc.
A Q of my guiding questions: What word sums up your theme for 2024?
Mine is: Explosive Growth. What's yours?

Planning to do a Hacker House in April.
1 month, US timezone (or close), close to a beach or a lake, sunny weather.
Recommendations for good places? Currently diving into Mexico and Peru, higher prices than expected though.

By now, my Goodreads is 80% friends recommendations and 20% recommendations from matches on Bumble.
I’m always asking what their favorite book is and adding it to the list - by now, some real good reads.

In how many boxes does your life fit?
For me it’s apparently 14.
7-8 boxes of clothes and shoes, 5 boxes of them I did not wear the last year.
4 boxes of tech equipment, spanning three laptops, two desktops, four screens, mic and equipment, many hundreds of cables.

I've just found the hack for storage issues on Dev Laptops.
Delete node_modules.
300-500mb in my projects, on avg. Over 40 projects stored on my device. Do the math.

If you're following along, you might know by now, that were working from a Hackerhouse in LATAM, still 24/7.
Crazy setup. What we are seeing by now, though, that it attracts the right people. We are looking for the crazy and cracked type, which is attracted by exactly that.

We are searching a Founding Designer, On-site in New York, up to $190k + equity. More infos on request.
Needs previous startup experience and able to operate without lots of leadership - typical 0-1 profile.
Any recommendations here?

Love that tweet, let’s use the break from the IDE.
1. Clera - Agent matching Talents with high growth startups (Headhunter)
2. Hiring is broken, everyone hates it. Headhunting fills the gap but doesn’t scale. Clera solves that.
3. Tons of stuff, coding since I am 13.

Unpopular opinion:
Why are people constantly taking videos of stuff? Sure, interesting. But come on: Will you really show this your friends, family, whoever? What is the use of that?
Unfortunate to miss the experience by trying to make the best video or photo. Or rant posting like me.

Starting out as an Engineering Manager from May onwards, taking over a team of 7. Looking forward to the challenge.

Imposter syndrome is a huge thing.
Being diagnosed as highly intelligent in my childhood, starting two years earlier to school and writing Code since I’m 13 years old, I’ve gotten more experience than most of the people around me.

Mentored an Engineer last week. He asked what I am looking for while hiring (Senior) Engineers. One huge on is reasoning technical decisions to be taken, the ability to take a decision and verbalize that.

Don’t really see an issue here - would probably jump on a call and see what happens. Taking it more chill has always helped

A even better implementation is probably building up the loader element as a reusable and mapping it via a RG over the loading RG and display/ hide conditionally

Thanks for the mention - @CoenHees feel free to reach out, might be able to help.

Kind of belonging to the job description from my POV. If you are responsible for a technical system and a critical issue appears - and no other person is available or capable - this is yours to fix

PG: "In 1960, most of the people who start startups today would have gone to work for one of them. You could get rich from starting your own company in 1890 & in 2020 but in 1960 it was not really a viable option. You couldn't break through the oligopolies to get at the markets."

For the ones asking me what I've been up to the last weeks/months. Watch this.
