Indie hacking 101: 1. Build an MVP that you can confidently say that it’s the best in the world at one particular task 2. Launch it fast to validate if it makes a viable business 3. Keep building to remain the best in the market despite competition 4. Distribute it to more people

I don’t believe AI or any technological evolution will make engineering skill less valuable. More than ever, when there is a technological evolution, we need more talented engineers to apply these tech to solve higher economic problems.

I tried out Next.js 15 this weekend by making a small Bluesky analytics app. My primary goal was to see how well Next.js 15 works with other tools, but the app has come along nicely, and I can add features quite easily now. Should I continue building it or leave it here? 😄

I just realized that Bluesky source code is open-source, which means the community can contribute code/features to the platform. 🤯 I've always been wanting to fix X/Twitter scheduling features. I can now just make a PR to Bluesky Github repo! 😍

Can someone summarize what are the primary differences of Bluesky vs. X/Twitter? Particularly how can everyone get so many followers so quickly?
