Most side projects don't fail.

They drift and fade away.

Momentum is everything - keep shipping, learning, and sharing.

Your best ideas only live through relentless execution.

I think a big key to vibe coding is realizing it's not taking a back seat on how the code should be:

- organized
- secured
- tech used
- design
- refactored
- optimized

The best vibe code I'm seeing is by those who understand what good code is (and isn't). Aka experienced engineers.

The startup workflow:

Build > talk to ppl > refine

Repeat forever.

AirPod’s conversation awareness is amazing!… unless you talk to yourself 🤣

Instead of AI replacing software engineers it will be software engineers with AI replacing everyone else.

Feels fitting that my first BlueSky post is about something I’ve obsessed over for a long time: financial forecasting.

I got sick of not knowing if I’d ever get ahead, so I built a tool that actually helps plan your future... not just your budget. Story time for #buildinpublic 🧵
