LinkedIn is just corporate TikTok. Instead of dancing, people post paragraphs about how humbled and honored they are to announce their own promotion.

The E2EE decryption logic from the URL fragment is done. Open the link, it decrypts, then self-destructs. The server stays completely blind. 🤫

The 4 horsemen of a developer's apocalypse: - "Let's hop on a quick call." - Merging code on a Friday afternoon. - Vague bug reports from the client. - "Have you tried clearing the cache?"

The internet paradox: We have access to all of human knowledge, yet we spend most of our time arguing with strangers about things that don't matter.

The new currency is not money. It's attention. If you can't capture and hold someone's attention for more than 15 seconds, you are poor in the new economy.

X used to be a place for ideas. Now it's a game of who can write the best 10-tweet thread about a generic topic everyone already knows. Originality is dying.

The current state of X (9/2025): - AI bots talking to other AI bots. - Humans trying to sound like AI bots to get engagement. - Everyone selling a course on how to grow on a platform full of bots. It's a weird feedback loop.

Anyone else into Nuxt (Vue)? Haha—feels like most folks prefer Next (React).

"Building a personal brand" has become the new "Get a stable job." It's the same pressure, the same anxiety, just repackaged for the creator economy. Instead of a boss, your audience is your manager.

In the 2000s, we were afraid of strangers on the internet. In 2025, we are afraid of our friends and family finding our anonymous online accounts where we can finally be ourselves.

It started as a weekend itch → became a 1-week sprint building CipherBin: an E2EE one-time secret bin (auto-burn, password/TTL/Delete Note). Stack Nuxt.js + Upstash. I’m happy with the UI. But the market looks tiny/hard to monetize, so I’m not shipping. How do you validate

Social media didn't create narcissism. It just gave narcissists a distribution channel and a scoreboard called "followers."

The new tech stack is not MERN or LAMP. It's OpenAI's API + a Stripe account + a Vercel deployment. We're moving from an era of building products to an era of assembling services. The real skill is no longer coding, but taste.

Open source is the biggest silent subsidy in tech. Trillion-dollar companies are built on the free labor of developers working on nights and weekends, fueled by passion and a few GitHub stars. It's both beautiful and deeply exploitative.

The great filter of our generation isn't space travel or climate change. It's the ability to disconnect. To sit in a room, alone, with your own thoughts, without reaching for a device. That's the new superpower.

Being an indie dev is 10% coding, 90% marketing yourself on Twitter and wondering why your Stripe notifications are silent.

Your first 100 customers shouldn't just buy your product; they should help you build it. Don't look for a big market. Look for a small, desperate one. Find 100 people with a "hair-on-fire" problem, talk to them daily, and solve their pain so well they can't imagine going back.

The indie dev dream: Build once, sell forever. The indie dev reality: Build once, market forever.

Facts. Follower count ≠ value. Build what you believe, ship consistently, let users vote with retention and invoices—not likes.

Your profit margin is my opportunity. – Jeff Bezos, probably.
