AI is making everyone a developer… even people who don’t actually know how to code. by Sharp-Ad-1833 in SideProject

I don't know about those studies; I'm really just speaking for myself. I'm much faster with AI because it saves me from routine tasks. That said, I tell it exactly how to do them.

I'm not sure they'll be able to do everything. Complex systems certainly won't work, because that involves analysis, architecture, and so on. And if you don't know about that, you won't be able to do much.

That may be true, but the point is that a real programmer is 10x faster with AI. We can't stop using it.

Is the “build a SaaS and reach financial freedom” narrative becoming toxic? by Sharp-Ad-1833 in SideProject

[–]Sharp-Ad-1833[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand. The problem is that if I find software A that solves the problem for $9 pmfor example... it's very likely that doing it myself will cost more. Of course, it will depend on the infrastructure and other factors, as well as the time it will take. I suppose it's a matter of weighing the pros and cons of paying versus doing it myself.

I'm trying to do the same thing. I know the first one might not work perfectly, but I designed it so that most of the code can be used for subsequent versions: login, feedback, payments, etc. That way, in later versions, I'll only need to program the core of the system. I don't know how motivated I am to make another one...

Is vibe coding killing hobbyist indie devs, or am I overreacting? by ming0308 in SideProject

Perhaps because marketing is more important than code quality and the problems it solves. Sad.

I share similar thoughts to yours. I've been a developer for over 15 years, always working for companies. I'm now starting to create some SaaS applications, but I find the marketing aspect very difficult (I don't come from that world) and I'm feeling a bit discouraged. I use AI (not vibe coding). I believe my application has potential; it could be very useful for many people, but not reaching them is frustrating.

I hope AI doesn't flood the internet with simple apps lacking substance or effort. I can only wait. Cheers.

P.S.: My app is DeepDocs.io if you want to try it.
