Dogfooding atomize dot ink.
Have a great day everyone! ๐ช ๐ธ ๐ ๐ฆ
Using Agentic AI to code brings a lot of leverage. No other way around, so don't look back. HOLD FAST ๐งค
7AM and I didn't get to bed. Effin' excited with the product I have in hands. ๐ช
I'm refining my approach of writing feature implementation reports in markdown, and from there build a markdown tickets file, that can be directly fed to Claude. Results are more and more positive, and the more I use it, the more grip I feel.
Yesterday was the 3rd day building atomize dot ink. ๐ช
Lots of progress, and 14k lines of code written.
Most of them were done with Claude Code.
great question ๐
Looks great! Will def try it soon-ish!
"It depends" is exactly the perfect introductory answer to that journey where you can explore the pros and cons, or the trade-offs of an approach or strategy.
interesting! will give it a try ! ๐

You can try their apps, finding missing point. You can interview their candidates and define exactly which criteria you need to meet to blow them out of the water.
๐ก Theory behind this: it's easier to bootstrap an idea without capital in a red ocean, and in a b2b universe. The reason behind this is you know the idea works, you know what went good and wrong with the other competitors.
If you are able to capture a small slice of their churned customers, you're done! ๐
This is the trick. Plus, sometimes better means fewer features, which means less work. Yes. Many SaaS suffer from this unique disease of being over-bloated because they can't survive to not invent a new thing every month, to keep growing.
What you really need is to build something that already exists, as it's a pre-validated idea, and where you can easily get some market share by doing it better, cheaper, and faster.
In reality, if you're an indie hacker, or founder trying to bootstrap your first business, you'll never have money to come up with and execute original ideas. See the current race to the bottom for the AI market share? Yup, you couldn't ever compete with OpenAI, or X, or Anthropic...
Pick a field you love, think of an app that exists, and that you like, but that could have a different emphasis, a twist, and just build it.
I can assure you that if someone says: "Oh, don't build another XYZ" then you're on the right path. ๐ก
Directly from the book of "Lessons I Paid to Learn" ๐
Many people never start an app because they're looking for that innovative and differentiated idea. โ
Just starting a project to convert newsletter articles to short-form content, preserving your own voice.
Mainly for LinkedIn, as of now. Let's see what the future holds while validating this.
Still no product details to share!
MVP in progress ๐ดโโ ๏ธ
Day 0 of Building in Public ๐ค
Man, this really makes me happy! โค๏ธ freeCodeCamp has already helped hundreds of thousands, probably millions of people, all thanks to Quincy + Community. ๐ฅ
The most interesting part is that it shows how the way we worked alone as developers, is exactly the approach we should have with AI agents.
Go there, read it, and reach out to say hi! ๐
In case you didn't subscribe to "codeyourfuture dot substack dot com", you missed to learn how this algorithm that came from math, to ai, became a rule of thumb and a pattern developers apply nowadays, to go from macro to micro at a fast pace with iterative solutions.
Claude really rocks.
This is so cool! I miss my old PCs so much. Don't know why did I get rid of them ๐
My passion for software makes me approach it from two perspectives:
- as a profession
- as a hobby
Honestly, the only thing that makes me distinguish one from the other, most of the times, is the current TMUX session ๐

Not sure what it does in the background, but computer/ipad/phone get very hot.
If you apply to software engineering jobs, supplying a ๐ฐ๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ GitHub (or equivalent) ๐ฝ๐ผ๐ฟ๐๐ณ๐ผ๐น๐ถ๐ผ, I definitely want to know you! ๐ซต

What's your best debugging trick?
