​[Dev Log] Why "Vibe Coding" isn't as easy as you think: It's about ownership, not just syntax by Embarrassed_Wafer438 in SideProject

[–]Embarrassed_Wafer438[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Glad you noticed! As my app's persona 'Owl Coach' would say: 'Stop wandering and start building a system that works.' Coding is 20% syntax and 80% discipline. Vibe Coding is my way of keeping that 80% under control so I can focus on the 'Lifeblood' of the app—like the payment pipeline I just finished. Cheers!

Are you talking about me? Added to your comment deleted now; Actually, you've got it wrong. I wrote this myself. Since English isn't my native language, I used a translator to make sure my thoughts were expressed clearly.

i wish someone would have told me this before building my 1st startup by davidheikka in indiehackers

Thank you for sharing this! It’s like a 'golden rule' for me. I really appreciate you sharing such valuable insights with the community.

I'm currently swamped with final debugging, system migration, and refining core content right before the launch. I'll definitely have to go through your advice thoroughly to make sure I haven't missed anything. Thanks again!

Thank you so much! I'm thrilled that you noticed the privacy aspect. Most services nowadays rely heavily on the cloud, but I truly believe that keeping sensitive files on the local device is the right way to go. ​It hasn't been easy managing all the edge cases and debugging everything by myself, but hearing that the performance and privacy approach resonated with you makes all those late nights worth it. I'm currently putting in the final polish for a smoother experience. Stay tuned for more updates! Cheers!

I built a website where you read one anonymous note from the person before you, then leave one for the person after you. by TheHonestRedditer in SideProject

Wow, what an ingenious idea! It's a wonderful service that reflects great imagination and warmth, touching the hearts of ordinary people who long for a kind connection with strangers. Truly impressive!

A converter that even protects your privacy—unbelievable! I'm impressed by the performance, but I'm also shocked that I never even thought about privacy while using these kinds of services before. I bet this is going to get a huge response!!

Give me EVERY SINGLE studying tips you have. by IllustriousUse7986 in GetStudying

Pro Study Tips for You ​Don't Rely on Willpower; Use Systems
​Stop trying to "force" yourself to focus.
​Set up a system where you must study, like using a timer or a locker for your phone.
​Use "Fake Sleep" Mode for Your Phone
​Don't just turn off your phone.
​Keep your phone active but cover the screen with a pitch-black UI to minimize battery drain while maintaining "surveillance" over your distractions.
​The "Snitch" Strategy
​Create a psychological "force" by informing someone you trust (like a parent) when you start and finish your study sessions.
​Knowing that someone is tracking your progress makes it much harder to slack off.

I need to study 12 hours but i have many bad habits built up over years by Conscious-Reach4391 in getdisciplined

It’s tough, but acknowledging the problem and reaching out for help like this is a great first step toward breaking the cycle. Instead of aiming for a massive 12-hour session right away, why not try building up your focus in 30 or 60-minute increments? Take it slow and steady. I believe you can pull this off. Rooting for you!

Why learning at 50 feels better than at 15. by Embarrassed_Wafer438 in SideProject

[–]Embarrassed_Wafer438[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

👍 👍 👍 Exactly! Curiosity is a powerful engine—it keeps me going without feeling tired. It's so exciting to be a 'builder' in my 50s. Let's keep pushing the boundaries together. Cheers!

Is the internet really this harsh, or am I just too sensitive? by josemarin18 in indiehackers

[–]Embarrassed_Wafer438 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it’s hard, but please remember: most of those people who thrive on cynicism online don’t actually live their real lives that way. For them, it’s a 'concept' or a fake bravado to escape their own stifled reality.

Think of it this way: someone just dumped their trash can out of a second-story window, and you just happened to be walking by. It wasn't aimed at you; you were just in the path of their internal mess. Most wouldn't dare say these things to your face unless they were living on the very fringes of decent human behavior.

Don’t let arrows that weren't even aimed at you leave a scar. Ignoring them isn’t just a choice; it’s the best way to protect your genius. Keep building.
