I suppose I should introduce myself? After years of just looking, I’m stepping into the social fray as a soon-to-be solopreneur (agency co-founder is leaving) and open source developer/maintainer.

I started a non-profit cafe to end human trafficking and slavery.

And I develop integrations and APIs
Okay, not sure if there’s an audience here for this, BUT, we’re launching a new offer for the first 5 companies that want to try it out. An experiment building unlimited product integrations for a flat monthly rate of $5,000/month. learn.lefthook.com/unlimited-in...

As I’ve been playing around with Claude Code and agents that can have context and reach beyond even the repo you’re working in, I’ve wondered if we should have tests written fully separate from the code available to an agent’s context.

The 11th Annual Brothers Matthews Great North East Disc Golf Tour of 2025 is underway!

We’ve been doing this for… check notes… 11 years! Dawn to dusk. As many rounds as we can. Follow along for shits and giggles dub.sh/BMGNEDGT2025

I’ll add to this thread as I go!

I mean, here’s a moment to ask for random giving! My nonprofit (cafe to end human trafficking and slavery) is in a 24 hour fundraiser right now. Can you spare $5? We’re opening a whole network of them after 10 years in one location. LFG!!

Here are my 5 daily word games:
- Wordle
- Connections
- Strands
- Mini Crossword
- Wafflegame

We used to play them and share scores daily on the family thread (5 siblings, parents, and significant others)… then three of us got shouted out 😂

This is probably because of who I follow, but I feel weird posting anything other than my feelings about the Celtics/NBA or the state of American politics and government right now.

Can I talk about building apps for Google Workspace without feeling any shame or guilt? Stay tuned to find out! 😂

I just had a moment’s realization that I’ve been “vibe coding” for years already… only, instead of asking an LLM for code that does a thing and then just accepting it if it works, I’ve been doing that with anyone on my team.

This is probably because I just finished watching The Lion King with the littles for 6th time in 2 weeks… but i keep getting this image of 4 years from now, @petebuttigieg.bsky.social stepping into office with the whole federal government looking like Pride Rock when Simba returns.

I remember changing our voicemail at home all the time growing up. And I used to change my voicemail maybe 2-3 times a year through high school and college.

I haven’t touched it in 10 years.

Sign of the times? Anyone else similar story?

I'm launching mini series called "Opinions, Deeply Integrated", focusing on tips and tricks when building integrations.

Here's one about being a hero when scoping/designing integrations: https://buff.ly/4hga5nQ

Would love your feedback/questions to explore!

Okay, #buildinpublic crowd, what waitlist tool do you like to use? I could roll my own but I like social proof and not having to do my own captcha/spam prevention.

Also thinking about an “iPaaS Connector Generator”, where you add your api, and it spits out equivalent connectors to the major iPaaS players out there for upload/publishing (and instructions/automations to do so where applicable).

Zapier, Make, Power Automate, Workato, Tray, Paragon, etc.

Thinking about a product comparison generator tool.

Basically a directory tool but with comparison charts so you can just create big tables of comparisons.

I just did a hand-off on a Zapier app build today and as I was talking through the app structure and docs, it had me wondering if I should just record me talking through a general app structure and give some top tips, things to know, etc.

Would that be interesting?

Is it possible to build a successful open source project and NOT be on X? Asking for a friend.

Me, I’m that friend. Asking for me.

I kept looking for ways/tools to of keep track of my projects. Then I realized… I should just pop them onto my personal site and stop trying to find “an app for that” for everything 😂

At least until I’m doing something more robust than just “listing everything”.

2025... the year of action. But not before some lightweight reading! I've been a devourer of SaaS content over the years, and for various reasons I've got to stop analyzing and just go play the game.
