Some people touch grass in order to ground themselves and think and figure things out. For me it's running and the longer the run the better. Running is my therapy, my release and a huge part of my life and identity. I couldn't imagine not doing it! iruntampa.com/

One thing I'm learning from client work is that you don't always need to invent a new product. Sometimes a business just needs someone who understands its problems and can actually build a solution.

The week has ended! 🙌 Don't forget to thank #God for a great run and smile for all that you've achieved.

Maybe when AI takes all the jobs we'll just be on the OCR program and pay our rent and buy our Ramen noodles by posting all day long here on X...

I don't know anything about how this is built but if it's as easy to use as Docker Desktop then this is worth it! Will investigate soon!!!
I have been avoiding using VMs for everything because it's annoying, but CJ has solved my issues.

Your app is going to need an MCP server. Not because it's trendy. Because agents need a typed, authenticated way to call your business actions. If you already expose REST for humans, you're halfway there. I'm working on a video about this. What's the first tool you'd expose from your app?

Is there a high likelihood that my first App Store submission will be rejected? I'm tracking on submitting a video of app functionality. What else should I be aware of?

I think the Intellij issue I ran into the other day with Kotlin not working from inside a DevContainer is fixed with the latest update. No more Kotlin language server issues, everything is in the DevContainer where it should be! More testing will need to be done but I'm hopeful!

this is your job now: prompt what you need into ai, see if it can do it, if it falls short, hook in more mcps or grant access to let it make progress, have it self document it's failures into a skill or knowledge base so it will work perfectly the next time.

Day 3 and Apple still has not verified my bank account info. I wonder if I should submit my app for review while that process is on going because it's likely to take 3 weeks to get the review done (from what I've heard).

"Apps and SaaS are dead. People can just vibe code their own." Sure Bakeries are dead. People can bake at home Restaurants are dead. People can cook at home Gyms are dead. People can work out at home Cinemas are dead. People have Netflix Hotels are dead. People have Airbnb Apparently, knowing how to do something yourself means nobody will pay someone else to do it

My feed is full of stuff like this, is this what people really want? Random accounts telling them things they already know a million times per day?

Should it take Apple more than 2 days to verify a bank account in App Store Connect? I know they have a backlog of apps but this should be an automated process...

I really wish people would stop saying "distribution". It's almost meaningless. It's like saying, the only moat now is a lot of people knowing about you. Well no shit, entrepreneur of the year. What do you really mean? time and trust in the market? owning a valuable earned media channel? a proprietary paid ads strategy that is printing money? Learn to say what you mean. If you just keep saying it without knowing what the fuck you're talking about, you're ngmi.

Completely missed opportunity for Nintendo. They could have kept a steady stream of content flowing to keep the game fresh. It's an amazing game and so much fun to play.
Still baffled at how Nintendo never restructured to serve out substantial content at a faster rate to address the overwhelming popularity New Horizons gave the Animal Crossing franchise.

Electron is what PWA should have been. The dream of PWA never materialized. Sad!
Electron is great software and it is the best option for many interactive desktop applications
