Hello again!
We are doing introductions?
I'm Dutch living in Madrid, Spain. I have been working on my own startup Nusii (online proposal software) for 10 the last 10 years.
I recently started to do some temporary freelancing on the side just for fun.
I like playing the drums 🥁

The best kind of customer support! Also, they have no clue that it is just me and there is no team 😂

I made a very strange end of year move. Instead of spending my ad budget on ads, I decided to fund the recording of an album from a very good friend of mine.
They don't have the funds and I really want that album to exist.
Is this a wise expense? I guess not, but it is much more fun 😆

It works, starting the process with the Claude slash command /transcribe and it will ask me a couple of questions, then does some little research to get as much info as they can about the company and the people and put that inside a markdown file. Then it transcribes the interview.

Trying to create a new employee that transcribes my customer interviews in plain text.
Can also just pay for a service, but... that is no fun :P

This month I did 4 customer interviews. And that is with a 10 year old SaaS product. It is still the most valuable thing I can do. It is crazy to see that most founders that are starting out, don't do this at all.

I'm negotiating a custom plan for a new Nusii customer, by far the biggest we have at the moment. He just sent a LinkedIn connection...

Today we were eating at a Mexican restaurant and the waitress showed us this framed note. It is what my kid left on the table when we left ~3 months ago 😍

After a year of inactivity with my SaaS I’m slowly getting my product obsession back. And for me that fuels right back to marketing as well. To get excited so I can tell the world works better for me than the other way around.

Saw an awesome talk by @karreiro.bsky.social yesterday at Madrid.rb about creating Ruby gems with a native Rust extension.
He ported the Rust toml parser to Ruby in a couple of minutes and it was almost 3 times faster than the fastest Ruby toml parser.
Such a great talk!

A little secret, I never had CI for Nusii and it has never been a problem.
I just always run my tests and rubocop before deploying ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Only make things complex when they need to be complex!

FYI. I learnt this today the hard way. A decimal column converts into a BigDecimal and a jbuilder template converts those into strings, not numbers.
Not ideal when you build a Zapier integration and you have no clue why the responses don't match 😅
