Thinking of changing my extension focus from pure search, into more search-powered organization. Think smart folders, but for LLM chats across providers. #buildInPublic

Another great talk from the Zed's AI engineering series -
AI's 70% problem w/ Addy Osmani
In this episode, we sat down with Addy Osmani from Google's Chrome Developer Experience team to explore what he calls the "70% problem" in AI coding: the gap between what AI can generate quickly and what it takes to ship production-ready code.
We covered:

I know... I promised to not write a single line of code. But I couldn't resist adding Claude support to Chatbot Chronicles. So now I need to pretend, I did it for "marketing" reasons. #buildinpublic

Developers: I have this problem so I'll spend 3 months building something instead of Googling for an already existing solution.
Also developers: I built this awesome thing, but nobody seems to want it? Why is that!?

As a techy, I'm pretty oblivious to normal people pain-points, and whatever problems I personally have seem to be exclusive to me. So the advice - build something to solve your own problems - is utterly useless. #buildinpublic

I've seen people claim they use LLMs for trading. How does that even work? Y'all just letting the AI roll the dice or what?

Part of me hopes that my extension will remain userless - it'll be that much easier to just nuke it all once the experiment is over. If there's even a few users, it'll be so much harder to pull the plug. #buildinpublic

I just had this realization.. the fact I'm struggling to attract users currently is actually a perfect setup for learning. Which is my main goal out of this project. And if I manage to pull this off, everything else will be so much easier going forward. #buildInPublic

Boredom isn’t a bug—it’s a feature. Harvard professor Arthur C. Brooks explains why boredom unlocks creativity, activates a powerful brain network, and might even protect you from depression. Learn how the mind wanders—and why that’s a very good thing.

Whenever someone send me a message online I truly want to reciprocate, but a significant number of these messages reek of LLM content. Those I just ignore. And I think it's a shame that we've come to that. #buildinpublic

Few weeks back when I posted about getting zero engagement for my just published extension one kind soul went and gave it its first review. They didn't install it, they just gave it 5 stars. They will have a place in my heart forever. When did you last help a fellow indiedev out? #buildinpublic
