Ok here is the real question. For a busy dad and developer who barely has time to work on his own apps and show them off meaningfully: how do you also be your own business manager, marketer, blog writer, designer, and work a full time job?

So here is a fun brain teaser for everyone: How do you share how much of an awesome engineer and all the side projects you do without playing the social media game? Asking for a friend.

Every time I go to respond to something on social media I end up deleting my response because holy shit there is no reason to reply to 90% of the things people flop out of their brains.

Thinking about creating a bot to request Apple make Apple Passwords for Linux. I don't want to switch to a different client and having to manually type stuff in on CachyOS is a PITA. Come on Apple! Make it happen!

The worst part of coming home after WWDC is partially writing a blog post about your experience but not know what to write because you have so much to say.

Got some extra cash left from WWDC? Probably not! But hey, if you want to support Step Into Vision we could certainly use it

I had an amazing week for #wwdc and hosting CommunityKit! I met so many amazing people and was so charged up by the week that I'm going into a deep coma while I process everything. I'm hoping to get a blog post up about my experience soon!

This year was a blast and next year will be even better! Here’s to chapter 3 :)

This is the take I agree with. The large scale LLMs are going to phase out in favor of local LLMs. Look at GPT OSS 20B and tell me it’s not good enough for 90% of use cases.

This is actually a cool and interesting take. timesofindia.indiatimes.com/technology/t...

Hey all, I generally don't like asking for help this way but my sister has been battling endometriosis and needs some help. She has setup a GoFundMe to help with the medical costs since she needs to see an out of state specialist. Please share or donate if you can: www.gofundme.com/f/fund-lizs-...

Hi I’m Liz, and I have no idea how to even start this. But I’ll try. Basically … Liz Foster needs your support for Fund Liz’s Surgery for Endometriosis Relief

Hot take: Gen-AI isn’t cutting edge for movie visuals. It only replicates, it doesn’t innovate.

TechCrunch@techcrunch.com · 9mo ago

James Cameron’s movies are often at the cutting edge of visual effects technology, but that doesn't make him a fan of generative AI.

Sometimes on Black Friday you just have to go buy something dumb but also kinda genius.

✨ New Article Out Now! "Indie, Alone, and Figuring It Out" I wrote about what indie life actually feels like - the freedom, the loneliness, the pressure, the unexpected work, and the small moments that make it all worth every bit. danijelavrzan.com/posts/2025/1...
