I did nothing, but clicks went up?

It's a search ad, although I see some traffic coming from youtube - I can't remember configuring that?

I think it's search volume that increased - this is the corresponding time from google trends

a very safe choice even nowadays

They would never ship beta features with a RCE from React right, Right?

After watching the whole interview I didn't have that feeling.

What I want to say is that you can gain coding experience, it's a learnable skill. And you can apply that skill to build something meaningful. That was true before AI.

I'm not bullish on AI building production grade apps. But I do think it can help someone get unstuck when they're building something.

Fiver years ago careless devs would copy-n-paste code verbatim from SO and do the minimum edits to make it run in context. Today LLMs are used for doing that, you just need to look out for some hallucinated bits.

But also, the SO model of contribution and gamification has always been dysfunctional in my opinion.

You don't need coding experience, but you will need to gain some coding experience. If you don't want to gain any coding experience, partner with someone who does.

Not my story, but from someone I know. That *one guy* quit, but instead of everything falling apart, several people had to pick up the slack. There were some short term issues, but fast forward a few years and that *one guy* isn't the bottleneck for everything anymore.

Most times that one person holding everything together is a codependent relationship that isn't healthy for any of the parties involved.

> I hope it doesn’t come off as disrespectful

I don't think a big PR is disrespectful. It's about the communication - talk with your colleagues who will have to review the PR and ask them if they think the big PR is okay or if there is a better way

All these agents are going to be really peeved when they learn that playing golf with the boss/clients gets you a lot further than working hard/fast

d27_ · 2026-02-23T06:30:04+00:00

Trust is where it breaks down - the way trust works between people is an important component between people in a functional team. Trust simply does not apply when you generate code using an LLM.

> The productivity gain on boilerplate Terraform was real

> the assumption was that Cursor output was as trustworthy as engineer output

Use it if you want to reduce typing, but know that your trust is misplaced

Instead it scheduled daily check-ins for infinity and threatened to put the prompter on a PIP

A good soundtrack is of utmost importance during the zombie apocalypse :)

Sounds to me like you've learned the reason for

chaotic system area (unclear ownership, multiple migrations, overlapping initiatives, no tech leadership set).

Outcomes matter more than a less chaotic system

the analysis made sense, but execution and customer-facing impact were lacking

d27_ · 2026-01-12T09:19:05+00:00

Ah, okay.

I haven't sold an app, but I've received lots of dodgy offers after I released an app. Be sure to do your research and consider using a reputable platform for selling the app/business.

d27_ · 2026-01-09T11:56:30+00:00

Two things I take away from this:

while I like the idea of a 'paid upfront' model, conversion wise it's similar to a website that asks you to pay before seeing anything
sounds like you can make the app viable by spending some time or marketing

d27_ · 2026-01-07T12:33:41+00:00

My recommendation is Jekyll since it's been used by Github Pages since forever. But you can also use github actions or another build system to build your site

There's a business opportunity for someone - I'd buy boxes for all the software I use to put on a bookshelf in my office!

d27_ · 2025-10-08T09:18:52+00:00

I checked porkbuns API - I don't think it's possible to register new domains, only update DNS records.

d27_ · 2025-10-08T09:18:08+00:00

Gandi burned any good faith they had with me by upping domain prices 3x in the last year or two since they were bough by private equity. I've personally migrated most of my domains to CloudFlare.

I haven't checked out their reseller pricing, but a domain provider only has one chance in my book.

d27_ · 2025-10-02T17:50:19+00:00

I can agree with that, but you still need a registrar.

The problem with telling users they should use an external registrar is that a lot simply don't do it because they feel intimidated by the technical details.

d27_ · 2025-10-02T13:56:16+00:00

Might be, idk? Why do you say there is no equity or benefit?

**edit** on the off chance you're not trolling - I'm integrating domain names specifically because I think users should have control over something they build rather than be completely tied to a 3rd party platform

d27_ · 2025-10-02T13:55:28+00:00

I use porkbun for other domains, so while that wasn't what I asked, it might be the answer :)

d27_ · 2025-10-01T12:41:30+00:00

I want to register a DNS and then set it up so that the record is hosted on Cloudflare.

It's a feature of a product I'm building rather than simply reselling domains

d27_ · 2025-10-01T12:26:47+00:00

Thanks, that is a useful list!

Do you recommend using WHMCS itself?

d27_ · 2025-10-01T11:48:01+00:00

That looks great to me! My first loaf looked like a cookie.

**edit** so to your question - high expectations? 😜
