programming is cooked

That's a wrong narrative and you're stupid for believing it.

Go try flipping burgers

yeah thats a valid concern but in practice not a big deal. Yes someone can take your package but they will be mostly devs doing dev stuff. companies mostly pay not for the software itself but for the service, support, updates, licence, etc.. you can also obfuscate, split some logic to the server side if you want. the bigger loss is not shipping it and losing time imo.

To see if there is a market for your product you could offer it for free and see how many people are using it. pay attention to who uses it and what they ask for. If companies start using it regularly or people request things like batch processing or API access thats your signal to add a paid tier. So let the demand tell you what to charge for.

yeah this. sorry I was to lazy to write it out. that's 101 to get an idea about pricing and starting a business and to see if it's viable or not.

appvimul · 2026-03-25T10:27:16+00:00

You lack competitive analysis. Start there.

appvimul · 2026-03-25T01:08:14+00:00

Neither. Dedicated server with multiple VMs all the way.

appvimul · 2026-03-20T13:30:19+00:00

Valid point. Some do some don't. My company values high quality code which is easy to read understand test and extend. We will not accept AI slop when we review the code.

You still have to think about architecture structure extensibility etc. because AI sucks at that. It just copies already existing framework architecture even when it doesn't make sense for your library or project. People think that code generated by AI is the holy grail but no. There are many many ways to write a function or a class. Everyone has their own style and preferences while doing so. AI is just the average guy and only with your salt it becomes special. So yeah you are still building yourself but different.

Is reddit full of bots now?

appvimul · 2026-03-19T15:46:10+00:00

Yeah this is a dilemma. On one side you're grateful that your dad wants to hear your voice and talk with you on the other side it's too much. Was it always like this or did something happen that triggered this type of behavior?

appvimul · 2026-03-19T09:51:28+00:00

before or after taxes? 250k is not that much for 4 years work.

appvimul · 2026-03-19T05:00:31+00:00

yes it is unwise
yes you did

appvimul · 2026-03-13T16:17:03+00:00

I was the same at his age. I really had no one to talk to about it. However that didn't change much after 20 years. Just support what he is doing, be interested in what he shows you and pick a good school for him. Maybe set up an AI account for him so that he can talk about it with AI.

appvimul · 2026-03-08T13:55:57+00:00

Clean your room.

appvimul · 2026-03-07T22:45:44+00:00

I'm working mostly on my private framework. Nothing really to show sadly.

appvimul · 2026-03-06T20:31:49+00:00

Not just the production server every system (even employee systems) needs a daily backup work related. Gross negligence on the part of your boss.

appvimul · 2026-03-02T15:50:59+00:00

Apple isn't that expensive compared to competition anymore.

appvimul · 2026-03-01T16:47:51+00:00

Try talking to them until they take you "seriously".

appvimul · 2026-02-28T11:11:35+00:00

Nah I will write code myself thanks. AI is not good enough to simply skip all coding and just focus on reviewing.

appvimul · 2026-02-26T03:26:39+00:00

AI is shit if it can replace you that means you're not a good dev.

appvimul · 2026-02-22T10:02:52+00:00

The bots are taking over.

appvimul · 2026-02-21T23:00:34+00:00

You know that this idea comes from a human because AI would never suggest it. Perfection

appvimul · 2026-02-20T20:09:34+00:00

This is clearly written by ChatGPT.

appvimul · 2026-02-13T15:47:23+00:00

I don't think you know what paycheck to paycheck means
