Every senior engineer I respect treats AI like they treat their IDE-a force multiplier, not a crutch. Ship faster, think deeper, automate the boring stuff. That's the game.

All those AI job apocalypse predictions from 2013?
Seventeen million more jobs later, AI didn’t kill careers, it just changed how we work completely

No indie hacker ever regretted:
- Shipping before it's perfect
- Learning AWS the hard way
- Saying no to scope creep
- Walking away from the screen
- Building in public
- Open sourcing their code
- Actually finishing that side project
The ones who regret are the ones who never started.

You don't need to be a computer scientist to launch an AI moonshot. Most breakthroughs are coming from people who never got "qualified" by tradition (looks like the gatekeepers lost the keys).
Get in the game, don’t get intimidated.

If you’re just getting into coding now,
you’re way ahead of most.
Seasoned devs are stuck with their old maps and don’t see the ground shifting under their feet.
So, stay open to learning new stuff, because anyone can code now.

I don't ship faster than others.
I just stopped waiting to feel "ready".
That's one of my biggest lessons from entrepreneurship

Big companies are scrambling with "AI strategy meetings."
Meanwhile, solo devs are just shipping.

If you're a developer using Claude code/terminal agents, do yourself a favor and run git worktree
Let the terminal agent handle issues while you pretend to work on other ones

Everyone's talking about AI writing apps from scratch, but devs mostly use it for migrations and they're actually pretty into it.

8 days ago PulseKeep was just an idea, here’s what actually happened.
What I’ve learned so far:
Ship ugly, polish later
Payment flows are way harder than expected
Consistency beats motivation
12 products in 12 months sounds crazy. But day by day, it’s just showing up.

Everyone redirects billing to third-party portals, I built it in-app instead.

Small decisions add up to products people actually enjoy using

User upgraded to paid plan. Database shows "indie". Sidebar shows "0/10 monitors".Spent an hour checking webhooks, API responses, state management.
The bug? My code checked for 'indie_pro' but the webhook saved 'indie'.
One string mismatch. One hour gone.

Big tech debates if AI replaces developers.
Indie hackers already know the truth.
AI handles the boring 1% (docs, boilerplate, integration hell) so you can focus on the 99% that actually matters: thinking, architecture, and shipping.

Most of coding was never about writing code.
AI is just making this way more obvious.
You don’t need to memorize syntax, function structure, boilerplate code, or even API endpoints anymore.
That stuff’s the easy part and AI nails it.
The hard part was never typing. It was always…

80% of founders fail bc they jump straight to building
You’re probably lining up to do the same
Lots of founders think “I have this problem, so I’ll build the solution.” But you’re not your customer
