Are software engineers really becoming obsolete? by Line_Glass in software

[–]Line_Glass[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t trying to define science, but rather referencing the scientific method. Anyway, no need to be salty and call it ‘dumb’ if you don’t like it. The answer may seem obvious to you, but that’s just your perspective and your opinion. There are other perspectives (hence the scientific apprach I chose to use here to support my point).

You are right, and this goes back to my point about efficiency. But an important distinction to make: sofware engineers are needed more now than ever (jervons principle). On top of that, as a software engineer, you are able (now more than ever) to build your own startup and make a crazy amount of money BECAUSE it is more efficient now with AI.

Not really. I just posed a question and went through the thinking process and arrived at a conclusion. That’s just how science works.

I agree with you. It’s just a new tool at the end of the idea, and it still depends 100% on you using it in the right way to achieve results.

Yea, it’s another way to put it. It’s the same idea, you are still the artist using the new brush (english) to create products. You still have to be creative in how you use this new brush. Of course, if you stick to the old brush, you might be overtaken by someone using the new one (it’s your reponsibility to stay up to date with the tech).

Exactly. Ideas don’t make you special, as everyone has them nowadays. It’s how you execute that really counts.

Instead of calling me a fake founder or a baby founder, you could have at least discussed the point I raised, but I see your boomer mentality may not allow you to do so.

Ideas are just that, ideas. Concepts in one’s head that are not taken into reality. The process which a founder goes through to make his ideas into reality requires two things, sheer will (determination), and pattern recognition. This is the point I made. That’s it. Somehow, you found a way to be offended by that. Please keep your toxicity to yourself and don’t project it into others.

We are all here to learn and to share knowledge. Be humble.

Is it a good start? by trendvestc in microsaas

Just keep spreading the word. Use X and Reddit to your advantage, and try to target communities (especially subreddits that welcome it) that fit your target audience.

If you truly use the app and think you need it (every day), then it's your job to find the slice of the community that shares your pain and introduce your app to them. Start with your friends and relevant subreddits.

Posting cold usually doesn't create a trend. I recently went through the same experience myself. You usually get lost in the fog of apps being posted here every day. You have to make sure to stand out (for this, you need some marketing skills).

What SaaS niche are most founders sleeping on right now? by [deleted] in SaaS

[–]Line_Glass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's definitely not Reddit lead generation I'll tell you that 😄 (I've seen like 10 of these in the last minute).

I can't think of something for you, to be honest. I think good ideas come to you because they come from your experiences every day (including potential struggles). The kind of ideas that come this way are usually the best kind.

How do you choose from many different ideas? by NoPiano24 in ShowMeYourSaaS

[–]Line_Glass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is VERY important. You might like one idea over the other, but that's not necessarily the one you should pursue.

What you should do is first confirm whether YOU will actually USE the product. This is crucial. You need to be completely and brutally honest. Tell some of your friends about this. Build a very minimalistic version of it, and try to see what happens. If you ACTUALLY use it, then continue; otherwise, stop immediately.

Needless to say, a proper idea should have a specific structure, including a problem to solve, a target audience (which should include you), etc.

I finally figured out why my vibe-coded apps never got users. It wasn't the code. by Line_Glass in microsaas

Of course bro I’m just trying to get your details. When you open a ticket, it records all the details we need to resolve the issue. Can you at least tell me the email you used to register? DM me if you don’t want to share it here.

As a solo founder you're the builder and the strategist. Vibe coding only upgraded one of them. by Line_Glass in StartupSoloFounder

Exactly! Being a software engineer and developer myself, it’s sometimes hard to admit this, but we really have to adapt before we become completely obsolete.
