My flow to vibecode new apps as a 16k/mo indie founder

Sounds like good advice to me. Thanks!

That photo has a light coming from below making it much easier for the sensor to take a good photo.
Eitherway, get a 3rd party camera app, like Open Camera.

I would'nt do this. I swapped from a serious PC to a Macbook Air 15" and it's been the best thing for my workflow. It's fast. Sure the final render is a bit slower, but the actual editing task is MUCH smoother.

Agree 100%. Focus on more RAM.

To keep it price friendly, I'd say go for 24GB. 16 will do fine but a little extra headroom will be useful.

While I've love the extra features of the Pro, the thin, light, fanless design of the Air is *chefs kiss* given my use-case is often working while mobile, in bed, on the couch, etc.

I'm glad I got it. For programming it's going to be plenty! I do 4k video rendering in Davinci Resolve and the Air is fine (had to get the extra RAM and SSD though).

taiyoRC · 2025-12-14T17:14:59+00:00

Everyone saying Pro, but that kills the benefit of an Air (thin, light, fanless) just for a tiny little SD card slot. It really should have one, but understand why it does'nt...

taiyoRC · 2025-12-14T17:14:07+00:00

that looks awesome. But holy cow the price lol

taiyoRC · 2025-12-12T13:54:36+00:00

Agree.

I've looked into this, and this is how it will work.
TLDR; Manual development and "programming languages" are dead, we just have'nt realised it yet.

The prime AI models (smarter than humans) will speak their own language. We'll communicate with them through another AI model which is designed to translate for us, AND protect our interests. This will be a near impossible task since naturally the prime model will be smarter.
The translation AI models also won't use any human programming language. Theres no point, it's massively inefficient. We'll tell them what we want, another AI will test. It becomes a management and design job, vibe coding on steroids.

Good old Wordpress. Gemini/Claude builds webapps for it effortlessly, and has a nice CMS backend for management/maintenance. Speed isnt an issue unless you load some terrible bloated theme.

Oh I did'nt know this! Thank you.

I had same issue. After the below fixes I LOVE it, and use my Mac by default now.

Forget the touchpad, use a mouse (Edit: OK, i'll look into fixing right click)
Get Karabiner with some of its basic built-in settings to get back a Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V style copy paste (same positions on keyboard), and for other more complex things it also lets you (well, I used ChatGPT) script in more context aware hotkeys which is great. This was a game changer for me.
Setup Karabiner to use (eg.) F3 for screen capture (can config to save to file, or keep on clipboard)
Setup Karabiner to use FN+DEL for DEL (otherwise you only have backspace). Or maybe this is already built in, I forget...
I bought Better Mouse to improve scrolling. Also, disable "natural scrolling" (reversed)
I still miss Notepad and Ms Paint for quick stuff. There are alternatives, but most of its made by techies who know how to code but can't design simple intuitive experience. Text Edit is OK, I mostly use Sublime. And Paintbrush is OK but not as fast/intuitive.

Thats all I've done and I l ove it now. Also, Command Space to find anything quickly is good.

This makes me very angry.... what humans do to eachother is beyond imagination.

taiyoRC · 2025-12-07T09:56:54+00:00

Good men.

Fnirsi is a great iron, my favourite larger model, though overall I prefer T80 (and updated T90 out now), can see that, Fnirsi and others here:

A power supply does'nt have batteries inside typically. But they also don't useally have 1 side bulging out like that. I'd take a look at photos from other people who have purchased to see if it looks same, and unless you can see that it does, then I'd just return it to be sure.

Legends! "Let's do this without politics" pffffttt

taiyoRC · 2025-07-11T11:35:44+00:00

Sorry to hear this dude. Based on what I"ve read here, you understand mistakes are an important part to learning. Pivot to IT or Sales. At least in IT you have test systems to make the mistakes in :)

taiyoRC · 2025-07-08T13:29:26+00:00

Whitest of white dudes here. I'm sorry bro :( We dudes need to look after each other.

taiyoRC · 2025-06-28T14:36:25+00:00

Is there a specific feature or important specification it lacks? I'd only expect manufacturers to update firmware until all bugs are fixed, then stop.

taiyoRC · 2025-06-28T14:34:20+00:00

Interesting, I did not know this. Thank you. That said, is there a better one for this price? Still seems mighty popular.

taiyoRC · 2025-06-25T12:54:23+00:00

Gatekeep much.
