We shipped WishPin in exactly one month from scratch, and I'm damn proud of that Idk how the hell people are out here bragging about shipping things in hours
Figured out how to automate building AND uploading to Test Flight for my Expo app 🚀 I just run `npm run build:tf` and it calls these two scripts
I know its common to hate mondays, but I genuinely look forward to them. Its the day I have the most energy to dive back into work after a 2 day break!
Threw together a new short vid this morning based on some React Native shenanigans I've been up to Helped me debug a crash issue with the app Im working on
I'm looking to build a service that RECEIVES emails and parses the contents. Any recommendations on services I can use to streamline this? Would rather not setup a mail server myself lol
AI is a great coding companion, but you still need to put in the reps if you want to keep your skills sharp. Use it for the tool it is and dont let it become a crutch!
Accidentally just discovered that you can adjust the window of requests being displayed in the Chrome Dev Tools Network tab by scrolling on the timeline 🤯
Working on a video that outlines the new Clerk & Supabase integration and how the whole thing works. Looking for feedback 🤗 First few slides walk through how a typical multi-tier application works, both independently and with Clerk.

Took a personal day to hike with the fam yesterday. Touched more rain than grass, but it was nice to get out into nature 🏔️
You shouldn't trust code written by AI. That's not to say you shouldn't use AI to write code, but you should review everything it creates for accuracy and consistency.
Vibe coding is a huge productivity boost, but it isn't going to replace devs. It is however going to raise the bar for devs. AI is too confident in itself, and that confidence can mask the poor or insecure code to the untrained dev or muggle trying to build stuff.
Is it true to say an MCP is like an API designed to be consumed by an LLM? Finally looked into it for the first time yesterday and this seems like an apt description
Anyone remember when they said no-code tools were gonna replace developers? Just saying…
That feeling when an awesome domain you want is actually available 🫠
