And we are LIVE 🚀
I have been working on this app for quite some time already. It took so much time to build it, test, connect all the dots, and even to figure out all the legal requirements from Apple.
Last Thursday the app finally landed on the App Store.

ASML is investing €1.3 billion in Mistral AI. This is great news for European AI alternatives and also good news for others, competition will help all those tools to grow

Just a few weeks from the launch, it's a good time to come back here.

So I'm building Plesso - an emotional intelligence app.

Let's connect if you're also building something in this space or if you actually would like to try something new.

I found an amazing font for the project, but the license is so expensive. I guess we go live with a free one for now

All the jokes about finishing your goals in 2025, yes, the ones from 2024, those that you set several years ago, are not actually jokes

Great take on software engineering with AI
✍️ "Hard truths about AI-assisted coding" tips & tricks in my latest article: bit.ly/ai-assisted

While AI-Assisted coding can get you 70% of the way there (great for prototypes or MVPs), the final 30% requires significant human intervention for quality and maintainability.

I found a good balance between creating content for 4 days a week and working on the app the rest of the time. Although I enjoy producing content, it feels strange not to code for several days in a row.
