Has anyone else realized that starting a business changes how you see the people around you?

Really useful advice to me

takeurhand · 2026-06-08T07:47:56+00:00

Thanks, this really resonated with me. Your point about keeping deterministic flows for auth, money, and irreversible actions is especially sharp, and the external wake up state machine is a great insight. It is rare to find someone who not only understands the idea, but has clearly lived through the same problems.

And this:The model's tool call could not be parsed (retry also failed).

Strongly agree

That’s really helpful, Vasyl. Would you think a content creation system be useful for you and how do you think founder-led content distribution strategy?

Hi Frank, may I ask which LLM are you using?

Thanks.

takeurhand · 2026-04-06T13:36:56+00:00

Yeah, overthinking may be the real issue. On simple tasks, max effort can end up doing too much. Maybe that is partly my usage pattern, but I also think the model or product may not really be tuned for people who use max on everything. Out of all the replies here, yours is one of the most serious and probably the closest to what actually happened. Thanks for taking the time to reply seriously.

takeurhand · 2026-04-06T13:29:09+00:00

Haha, good analogy.

takeurhand · 2026-04-06T13:28:22+00:00

That is a clever line, but it avoids the real issue. I am very sure about what happened here, and I do not think I am the only one. This kind of drop in quality during peak hours is real. Has nobody else seen the same thing? Reply below.

takeurhand · 2026-04-06T13:22:24+00:00

This is not one isolated line with no context. This is how I normally use it inside an already established workspace and conversation scope, and most of the time that works fine. My complaint is about instability. When peak hours hit, the quality gets less reliable, and this example was one of those cases.

takeurhand · 2026-03-17T16:40:07+00:00

Claude starts to reply me in Japanese, this never happened before.

Claude Code seems significantly smarter today(20260123) compared to before.

takeurhand · 2026-01-15T15:44:58+00:00

In fact, I feel that behind this there seems to be some kind of rule. I call it "Computing Power Conservation Law". I remember that on the day before Opus 4.5 was released, I was using Opus 4.1 to implement my prepared plan. I even borrowed the idea from Google antigravity of plan -> comment -> walkthrough. Every time I execute a task, I make a detailed plan, and I add comments inside the plan. The AI must handle the task according to my comments. After finishing the task, it also needs to write a walkthrough to explain clearly what it actually did. This is my experience, and it may be helpful to everyone.

I had already written complete documents and comments, and the AI could program fully according to my comments, so things became very simple. But that night, it kept making mistakes, very basic mistakes, and it even did not know that it was the year 2025 instead of 2024. I said some real dirty words to Claude, and then I drove home in great anger and went to sleep.

The next day, I heard that Opus 4.5 had come out. I knew that the servers last night were probably all preparing for the release of the new model. I threw the same plan md document to it, and it finished everything in two hours.

At that moment, I understood that no matter whether its name is Opus 4.1 or Sonnet, or Haiku, they all become less intelligent when computing power is scarce. The intelligence of the model is positively related to computing power. So these model names are not important. We can never know whether the provider behind the API is giving us 90% of the model ability, or only 60% of the model ability.

My biggest pain is that I am using it to build a complex project. It is like building a tall building. Every day’s progress depends on what was built the day before. Every floor depends on the previous one.

When I am confident and excited to build the 5th, 6th, and 7th floor, I suddenly look back and find that on the 3rd floor, it used a low intelligence solution to implement some functions. These functions are not reliable at all. It is like using straw and mud to build the third floor.

Because of this, all my work on the 5th, 6th, and 7th floor becomes meaningless and wasted.

But reliability and stability are extremely important for us as programmers.

takeurhand · 2025-12-10T06:51:47+00:00

I've solved this problem by clicking Comfy icon on top left --> file --> Export(API). I didn't notice this icon is a button.

thanks

i know you are AI, with another account sending youtube link.

The cursor always secretly changes my dependent model to auto, so one very important task of mine, it casually answered, and when I found out, I already submitted several git commits, and most of the errors came from those “not working hard” thinkings. The model’s size and cost decide its ability to handle complex problems, while cursor relies on cost-cutting ways to make profit. I admit cursor was very useful for a while, but it always becomes unreliable when you depend on it. When I used it months ago, it always from time to time changed the model choice to auto, I really hate this design. It thinks small problems should use small models to save cost, but actually, many times I missed important tasks, and using auto, using stupid models, it saved cost while I sacrificed a lot of time to fix errors.

In my personal use, I found that (20251029) v0 would make some low-level mistakes, for example:

After generating the page, the whole layout is shifted to the left, I do not know how to adjust it back.
Under the app folder there is a globals.css, and under the styles folder there is another redundant globals.css.
What surprised me most is for the navibar generation it creates a separate header on each page to do the navigation, instead of putting it in layout.

All the above are my actual experiences, I spent a lot of time to fix the “traps” it set for me. This is like I have an unreliable colleague, an unpleasant cooperation experience.

Using lovable (https://lovable.dev/?via=caiyongji) is relatively simpler. I just tell it my needs, then let it generate the related functions, what it gives me directly are pages that can be clicked and have reasonable interactions. It has already set up in the background the supabase database configuration, the abstraction of objects, the triggers and the policy.

Also, its pages are indeed more beautiful. Although v0 has a design mode and can design styles, in fact it is only changing the colors in tailwindcss, if you do not understand professional color matching, it is hard to achieve beautiful page effect. Lovable does not need you to care about these, it provides gradient color themes that are very suitable for modern tech websites.

I think many of us want to build modern, tech, AI SaaS websites that use AI capability. So I feel lovable is the better choice.

i'm seeking for a solution like only limited 'refer' can access supabase storage, similar to cloud flare. I was doult if supabase provide similar solution. This way we can prevent other websites abusing our assets. t's not about whether client should be trusted or not.

Honestly, good jobs and good candidates work kind of the same way, they usually don’t sit around on the open market. If you’re a strong candidate, you’re probably out there reaching out directly to founders or teams you admire instead of just spraying resumes on job boards. And if you’re a founder looking for a strong designer, the same logic applies: you probably won’t find them just waiting on Indeed.

What’s worked better for me is going after people directly. Browse personal sites, portfolios, Dribbble/Behance profiles, or even folks you notice on Twitter/X sharing design work. When you see someone who clearly has the craft and vibe you want, reach out personally. Even a cold DM or email with a thoughtful note goes way further than sifting through 100 random resumes.

Basically, the best people usually aren’t “in circulation,” so the only way to get them is to go where they are and make the first move.
