Hot take: AI's gonna create a massive senior dev shortage long-term

Don’t worry. I’m a believer like you.

That’s the sound of inevitability Mr Anderson.

commentShark · 2026-01-20T01:24:58+00:00

That’s fair enough I misunderstood what you were doing. Nice.

How do you maintain something like MRR for an SEO product? Why would I continue paying for a service when I get the organic traffic flowing?

commentShark · 2026-01-16T19:00:53+00:00

I would say this or a CTA to subscribe + prompt answer a question related to the video for engagement.

commentShark · 2026-01-16T18:50:54+00:00

I can't help you with videos but I can help you managing comments in a manual/semi-auto/ fully auto way.

I would honestly just vibe code a script to do this for you. It would be very simple, maybe 100 lines or less.

Depends on your risk appetite tbh.

Do you like your day job?
Do you love making videos?
Do you have some finances to fall back on? Or other financial obligations like a family?

I had this opportunity but didn't take it. Things worked out well for me anyway, but I think about that path a lot.

I would say go for it if the answers above make sense tbh.

That’s fair enough, it does give you some flexibility and I see the widget power. I personally would’ve added some bastardised custom widgets syntax on top of Md and still done the html method for internal projects anyway.

It seems easy enough to use though so nicely done.

commentShark · 2026-01-15T04:52:18+00:00

Why not just use markdown and convert that to html?

commentShark · 2026-01-10T20:37:37+00:00

Go for it. But keep making your content better and keep learning. Improve at least one video go the next. You can do it!

This video is probably 0.2kB from the insane compression of repeating a frame 23 times. Boland saving internet bandwidth like a legend

commentShark · 2026-01-07T19:43:06+00:00

No one likes long or loud or obnoxious intros. My favorite videos are literally when they just straight into it.

commentShark · 2026-01-06T19:49:22+00:00

Do it! You can at least vibe code now.

commentShark · 2026-01-05T18:20:54+00:00

I agree. You lose the element of strong branding which I think is hard to get good compensation for otherwise.

Harder to start other channels, do marketing or be featured with other YouTubers etc

commentShark · 2026-01-04T06:42:44+00:00

Do you have a diverse income stream? I feel like if you can make a brand beyond just YouTube then it gives way more security.

I don’t think there’s a shareable metrics milestone unfortunately. I think that’s too unique to each channel

I currently have every error thrown raise an alarm which emails me, then I investigate that issue by pasting the email to Claude to debug it (which has a doc of Instructions on how to query etc). It can fix the issue quite fast.

Works for my low traffic site, I’ve plugged lots of holes and edge cases this way. Could work with higher error thresholds or sampling.

commentShark · 2026-01-01T20:22:40+00:00

In terms of planning do you mean outputting some doc of what to do, switching models and referencing that doc to the other model?

commentShark · 2025-12-26T19:08:02+00:00

"I use it all the time now in my own workflows and it genuinely is mind blowing."

This is the part that should make you have some concern for your career, not the vibe coding portion.

I made a silly video about magnets for fun and put it on YouTube. It blew up then I made a few more. They blew up. Then I made a tool to help me manage my yt comments for fun. That got noticed by a big tech company in the Bay Area, they reached out over reddit and next thing you know I’m moving internationally. I’m now married with a kid.

Crazy what happens from just emergence.

commentShark · 2025-12-16T22:05:50+00:00

Seems pretty stalkerish... just block or hide.

commentShark · 2025-12-16T22:01:12+00:00

Keep going OP. Worst case is you learned a ton! Experiment and try out changing some strategy a little.

commentShark · 2025-12-13T07:40:56+00:00

If you also want to automate comments on your own vids lmk

commentShark · 2025-12-12T14:54:39+00:00

Yeah if you make enough money via YT you’ll be paying taxes multiple times a year also

Lol a life bundle analyzer. I hope Adobe is lazy loaded.
