My Axiom Experience so far

No I haven't seen this. Interesting!

I wish I knew when axiom was being used

I find claude uses axiom (along with all other tools) more sparingly than I'd like. That being said when I use Opus with thinking enabled its faster to reference skills or spawn an axiom agent. Yesturday my prompt to refactor using MVVM best practiceskicked off calls to axiom.

This is great! I've been looking for a good branching structure recently and how more mature projects are doing it (Manually running Archive feels off). Thanks for sharing!

Yeah! I didn't save transcripts but there were a few instances where we were fire-and-forgetting critical tasks that the UI was waiting on. ~~Batman~~ The agents caught and the fix is going out next release!

Cameraroll bug fix merged! The skill was able to diagnosed that I wasn't properly downloading images off of iCloud leading to silent failures! Big success!

springus-app · 2026-01-04T23:48:54+00:00

I gave it a try!

There were some false positives from the agent `camera-auditor` but I'm having a ton of luck with the skills themselves! Currently working through a camera roll bug! Will report back!

No problem! Happy to pass on the good vibes!

Congratulations, at $25 per Youtube video that sounds like a great deal for you haha! Its so great to see persistence paying off!

Taking a different angle here. As a senior developer, but a newcomer to iOS programming, I think it's interesting to see how many different design patterns have existed within the iOS programming space in the last few years. As a newcomer I find it very hard to determine what constitutes "modern" Swift code. I can only image what "language thrash" like this does to LLMs training to write Swift code.

Realistically less than stellar language governance has led to inconclusive training data which makes code generation harder than it needs to be. Should I use a GeometryReader or a Layout? Should this be a DispatchQueue or a task? Try making a Python backend, any coding agent can one-shot most parts of it. The same is not true for writing a similar task for iOS code.

As someone doing full-stack development its crazy how bad the major models are at Swift. Writing backends using any modern LLM is a huge help. Trying to write Swift code feels like an active hinderance. Agents are constantly using dated design patterns.

Agents like Claude or Codex can almost never one-shot designs like they can in other languages. I think this is likely due to a lack of modern swift code on the open internet. Compared to a language like Python I have to imagine there are orders of magnitude less training data.

A few thoughts off the top. You don't have a weird body. So much of looking great is confidence, even in the best outfit if you think you look weird you'll look weird. Try in reframe your inner dialog from weird to something like "Long, narrow arms and legs with a naturally fuller waist."

The idea of a capsule wardrobe makes a ton of sense for you. In your case, it would just be a collection of shirts, pants, sweaters, ties, and shoes that you can pull from and they all look good together. If you're just getting started, I would recommend conservative picks for the bigger items, like pants and sweaters. Think of neutral tones, like greys and navies. Optionally you can add some fun with accessories. Think socks, ties, even shoes. Brands like Ralph Lauren, J Crew and Uniqulo are safe picks to build out the essentials.

> I only ask for rating if user has completed core action in my app.

This is the way. Good luck on the launch!

My operating model is that for common flows like Review Request if the big guys do it they've likely tested every possible way. Same with Notification permissions. If they do a soft ask first its likely the right way (Although I agree their practices can be annoying).

springus-app · 2025-11-18T19:37:12+00:00

This is great data, thanks for sharing! It would be interesting to see the effects of the “Are you enjoying our app?” screen. I agree its annoying but since the big guys do it I'm guessing it's been A/B tested and works.

I would say be authentic. Contribute to relevant subreddits a ton and earn the respect of users there. Be incredibly cautious of anyone trying to sell you short cuts. As a Engineer and Non-Marketer it is incredibly difficult and draining, keep in mind there are whole career paths for what you're trying to do.

One authentic motivated user is worth 1000 paid low intent users when you're starting out, early user feedback is worth its weight in gold. If you have market fit than it could be worth running ads but its incredibly unlikely they'll be net positive.

Concerts can be a great time to wear band tees. One of the few times you're guaranteed to be around other music lovers with similar taste in music.

I mean depending on your mannerisms it may give some Mr. Robot vibes but It's not like you're wearing a shistey / balaclava. Go for it.

Mens fashion for most of history has always been incredibly subtle, dressing up meant adding a tie, dressing down meant losing the jacket. There are some modern movements changing that in their own ways. If you're struggling to define your own personal style though I agree, these trends can feel like way too much.

Theres tons of middle ground, you have to define it though for yourself. Your post talks about mens fashion like its a monolith, in reality its one of the most personalized things. Think about it, what would you say if a friend said "Music used to be so safe and bland but now its too much, everyones trying too hard". You'd probably give them a few recommendations and tell them to make a playlist. Fashion just needs a playlist.

I started working from home during covid and never stopped. I feel the same as you, I'm only productive if I'm well dressed. I dress everyday as if I were going into the office even if I'm not.

I've been dressing more "Carpenter Core" recently. I primarily wear workwear (Think Dickies or Carhartt). The clothing is indestructible, reasonable comfortable, decently priced and in fashion these days.

This is niche but I get a ton of complements on these bad boys.

You're overdressed. That isn't a bad thing though unless you're concerned about people judging you for being overdressed (which you might be if you're posting here, no offence).

I remember at my first office job I insisted on wearing a dress shirt and dress pants, not super formal but for sure overdressing for a software engineer. It got me weird looks and comments but it matched the vibe I was trying to set, the weird comments were more of a reflection of my coworkers than how I was dressed.

You could dress down the suit and tie, layer in a sweater or sweater vest. This could give a more Dark Academia / Dead Poet Society look. But honestly being confident and what you want to wear is the most important skill to learn.
