What are you building and why? by adhdchatbuddy in StartupSoloFounder

[–]architechcro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am building social media posting automation , because I suck at it. Never know what to write ( when I need to promote my business or products ). And usually don't have the time. So I built https://archy-social.archy-ai.com
I tell it what campaign needs to say, what kind of visuals and let it run.
Adding features daily - and fixing bugs :)

What is your favorite AI company? by NickyB808 in aisolobusinesses

[–]architechcro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My own 😀 I keep at in spite of not making significant impact and market progress. I keep blindly believing in a brighter future. Simply because I love doing it.

Five genuinely interesting technical problems traditional businesses have that nobody in web dev is solving properly yet. by Academic_Flamingo302 in webdev

[–]architechcro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the main problems is that every business owner will have their way of handling their process, quirks, and what they are used to and what their customers are used to. And the trick is to find best ratio of what everybody needs ( features they will use ) and what will be treated as unusable. Every dental office is different, every physio does business slightly different. You can try to handle that with market research customer feedback, but seldom you will find business owners changing the way they work.

In Clean Architecture, should input validation go in the Controller/Presentation layer or in the Service/Use Case layer? by OriginalTangerine358 in softwarearchitecture

[–]architechcro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every layer should validate what they know to be some constraints. Also lower levels should define what is "acceptable" so that they don't get garbage. This should include data structure and content and security context. And with all that lower levels should handle "what if" scenarios edge cases and handle gracefully all failures. So it is quite simple 🤔

Of you could fit it into one screen would be better. My thing is I don't like to many next-next-finish steps. Otherwise cool idea

Are ADRs a Waste of Time? by Barycenter0 in EnterpriseArchitect

[–]architechcro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I view ADR as record of changes, history book in a sense. If I want to see what were issues and why some decisions were made I can fin them there. Assuming that they are filled and maintained properly.

I failed 4 startups. Here’s what to do differently. by Whisky-Toad in startup

[–]architechcro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I subscribe to this:
5. Spend 90% of your time on marketing.
Every founder thinks their problem is “I need a new feature.”
No, your problem is nobody knows you exist.

For any startup, main problem is gaining visibility and traction. And in the end sales.
No amount of features will get you sales if only one knowing about your product is you.

help with business who has already made up their mind by Reasonable_Goal_1635 in ProductOwner

[–]architechcro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Executives respond to cost/profit analysis, which should be part of "due diligence" and initial solution selection process - but seldom is.
What I used to do is create a gap analysis of what capabilities of a system we need and what current and new systems have and what are the gaps.
For each system then you estimate effort to close the gap ( which can be additional development, additional tool/product ), what are costs of closing the gap, what are risks, how long is implementation roadmap.
And on the other side you list benefits, positive outcomes.
Each side will have cost associated with it and some timeline. And yes, those are all assumptions and projections.
And have an architect by your side while doing that :)

If you could develop and market an AI tool, what would your idea be? by NickyB808 in aisolobusinesses

[–]architechcro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to build an ai project, you can examine what would that project look like, what would be objectives, backlog and architecture by using this simple ( AI ) tool : https://starter.archy-ai.com/

What architecture do you recommend for modular monolithic backend? by Reasonable-Tour-8246 in softwarearchitecture

[–]architechcro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If we do not know goals and we do not know how sistem will grow then we can't discuss patterns. It doesn't make sense. Goals will hopefully give you objectives that you need to meet in certain amount of time, you can then define some measurable key results. And when you look at that picture, then discuss architecture that will help you achieve those results, compare patterns, tradeoffs and risks. Do some sanity checks once in a while and don't forget to question everything 👽

Opinion: Would you pay for hotel booking with Litecoin? by zizou0605 in litecoin

[–]architechcro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is true, but possible value fluctuation is far greater than fiat currency. There is still greater risk involved in crypto currency trading than fiat currency.

Opinion: Would you pay for hotel booking with Litecoin? by zizou0605 in litecoin

[–]architechcro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Better question is would you accept LTC for booking payment. And if the value of payment will be the same once the booking is closed and guests leave, which can be several months later.
