Woke up and realized the Energy tracker App (I should look a better name for it) needed also to contain the Tiny Life Experiments I’m doing to recover my energy. So I had to redesign the whole flow.

Heard this: “Doing anything fun this weekend?” “Work, work, work.” made me pause—did I really come here (this earth) just to work? I love work, but sometimes I wonder if we say "work" because it feels like the only way to be seen as valuable. Especially if you are a founder.

I hate reading documentation or following step by step guides. But that’s literally what vibecoding is: reading and following steps. Attention to details. Is there another way to do this? Or should I just give up.

our kids will think we were crazy for using Google for 20 years "so you typed a question, got 100000 blue links gamed by SEO agencies, opened 11 tabs, skimmed each site, pieced together an answer, and repeated this process 20 times a day?" they'll think we were digital cavemen.

When building, Money or Dreams? loved farza's reflection on this tension that i constantly see among founders. More often than not, i see dreamers (tied to ego) who struggle to make money and end up unable to make the dream happen.
