This is so much out of touch with reality. You somehow assume OP is interested only in profitable projects and that idea validation is easy. It's not. For technical person it is much easier to code a prototype/mvp than to try to g

While your use case is valid, it's nowhere near as annoying to have to wait 1 second for a button to enable than it is to call random person from your contacts because his name appeared under your fat finger. Maybe there can be a disti

Where do you set the bar for "good enough" app? It makes sense to allow shitty apps and let the reputation grow somehow.

I'm there with you. So many times I have heard this, what a great opportunity for me: build another guys (I have met 5 minutes ago) idea. It's simple, just a clone of (youtube|twitter|foursquare|...) with a little twist. It will c

I think a mindset to "get rich" or even worse "get rich quickly" is reallt bad for everyone even outside tech. There is certain amount of wealth you need so you need not to worry about food, shelter, kids, education, hea

First thing for wannabe enterpreneurs to learn is that allmost all your ideas are shit, and those that are good still need a lot of luck and the best execution to get somewhere. How many good ideas didn't work for first startups that c

I disagree that coding for fun and making it a product is 5-10% difference. I would say it's closer to 500-1000%. I coded a lot of tools for myself, for productivity or for fun. Currently I'm very quick in doing that thanks to LLM

I'm working on a better frontend (in sveltekit) for Udio - music generation app. Udio has good models to generate audio, but awful UI and organization/management tools. My frontend allows collecting all the generated content from

We had once an awesome unknown band from Belgium coming to play in our local club. I was the only person that came to the concert. For an hour they didn't start to wait for more listeners and they invited me to their table. No one show

Exactly. Some people feel entitled to get everything for free. It's obvious a lot of effort went into building these. If someone does not see the value, no one forces him to pay.

Let me tell you that the world has been flooded with low-effort, low-quality music for decades already. Most of the popular music relying on the same 3 chords, dull lyrics etc. While I'm a fan of music generators like Udio, I'm pr

For the last year I have been generating music heavily with Udio. For few years before that I was creating music by hand, trying to get into all aspects of music creation (theory, composition, sound design, mixing, arrangement, etc.) and l

next.js totally is overengineered and feature-bloated. But working with remix in the last 3 years (now called React Router: framework mode) I would never label it as overengineered. I'm not sure what you are talking about. If anything,

I don't think PHP is any better in solving the backend, than JS is in solving frontend. On the Frontend the situation is not ideal, but we made big leaps every let's say 5 years, going from jQuery to React and from React to later

That's nice. Does it use the native components, or are you rendering that all lower level?

In SW development you need to make compromises. You can not have all of: quality, performance, memory/cpu/disk efficiency, security, development speed, low effort, cross-platform app, accessibility, all the business features, etc.

I fully agree with this. Electron is hated here as if it was the source of all evil. When Electron came (and node-webkit as well), there were very limited options to create fully cross-platform apps easily. I tried multiple ways (including

by brulard 2y ago
With flutter you give up all the standard web components, accessibility defaults etc. If you don't mind, then it's definitely an option.

For some context you may want the new file creation time, but if I copy a folder of some backups for example, I don't want every file to have date set for today. I'll lose the possibility to filter files based on creation date, wh

I learned about products from different non-ad sources (HN, personal blogs, maybe even wiki). What's your point?

Don't you see "sponsored" products at the top? But I agree not everything is an ad, just most of stuff.

I tried the demo, but I still don't get it. What is it? Is it supposed to be like a collection of productivity apps, like google docs/drive ? The demo worked poorly, I waited very long time for many interactions, some didn't

I have very similar setup, with homelab and separate cheap VPS. In similar manner I have all the services installed directly on the OS but I'm starting to run into issues where I started to consider using docker. I run nginx with multi
