Worst thing with dog is you sleep scared. Scared of making any kind of noise. If you do, you need to start your day. Does not matter it is 4am 😅

Cursor Agent is really nice to get small changes in while you are off laptop, but somehow it gets some stupid change in.. Then I try to revert last commit talking to it, but it fails to revert a commit.

Anyone having the same issue? For example it deleted supabase db types file? #buildinpublic

Don't look for perfect! Ship the good and users will ask for perfect if it matters! #buildinpublic

Your advantage as an indie hacker is not your tech knowledge or advanced features in your app.

It is agility and adaptivity! Instead of endless meetings and pointless discussions, you can actually get things done quickly for your USERS. Not for your manager.

Focus on this! #buildinpublic

Important for B2B, always filter the requests.

Especially big companies will always find a way to complicate things. They will ask more and once you deliver, they will ask even more.

Set the rules at the beginning then extend the scope step by step, not at the beginning! #buildinpublic

We need to normalize talking less and actually getting things done. #buildinpublic

After 3 years of no basketball, finally found a group playing nearby. (very rare in UK)

Feeling bit lost nowadays.
Busy day job, some conflicts in the team, new baby dog in the house, peak summertime, list goes on...

I know I will recover fast and I know it is normal to feel this way sometimes. Important bit is keep going. #buildinpublic

How many simple products you saw here with 5-6 figures MRR?

That should be your sign to stop spending 95% of your time development and focus on marketing and distribution! #buildinpublic

If you are not selling shovels, BiP is not for marketing. It is for building connections and a tribe. Almost like having a club.

Don't try to sell your product here, it is just not the right place to sell it.

You don't need to reinvent the wheel. You just need to talk to people, ideally to your customers, to find new ideas.
