25GB for my MCP servers... is that normal?

I'm not a heavy Python user, but the UV package manager cache folder still contains 25 GB of data.
I only use UV to run/install MCP servers. πŸ˜…

I'm spending a frankly irresponsible amount of time on workflow automation.

Deep in @n8n_io and custom AI agents.

Part of me feels like I'm just procrastinating.

But the other part knows the endgoal is too sweet to ignore. This is what staying relevant for the next 5 years looks like.

and if you dont have a good product, epic design helps! πŸ‘€

(and I won't lie, I like websites that look gorgeous, too... however it is not what sells)

Nobody cares about your polished design!

And @Hetzner_Online is another proof of that!
If you have a good product that works, and the right pricing, you are just unstoppable!

Sorry @digitalocean

Worried someone will steal your idea if you #buildinpublic?
Good. Let them try.

They can copy your UI. They can copy your features.
But they can't copy your obsession, your taste, or the trust you build with your first 100 users - you're real moat isn't the idea. It's you.
Start building.

What does your speaking pace say about you?

08.08.2025 05:49 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

My speaking pace is a direct reflection of my confidence:

Fast = I feel like I'm bothering you, let me get this over with.
Slow = I believe what I'm saying is valuable. You should listen.

Learning to slow down isn't just a public speaking tactic. Its an act of self-respect.

My report from @OpenRouterAI do NOT lie...

@grok 3 is still my "go to" model for most of the agentic tasks, outperform grok 4 in real-life scenarios.

I have added @Context7AI into my MCP tools recently...

It means less hallucinating, less bugs, less vibe debugging,
and more #VibeCoding πŸ”₯

My #1 productivity hack isn't an app.
It's cleaning my apartment before a trip.

Just got home at midnight after 30+ hrs of travel. Jet-lagged, exhausted, and have to work tomorrow. Brutal.

But walking into a clean, organized space is a cheat code. It removes one huge point of friction.

GitHub - luohy15/y-router: A Simple Proxy enabling Claude Code to work with OpenRouter A Simple Proxy enabling Claude Code to work with OpenRouter - luohy15/y-router

since @claudeai code introduced rate limits even for their 200$ max tier...

why nobody is talking about routing @claude_code to @OpenRouterAI it is possible via simple proxy??
benefits are enormous!

eg. github.com/luohy15/y-r...

What's worse?

A dev who isn't using AI.
....or a dev who is letting AI use them.

It's a mistake to not use AI to get 10x faster.
It's a catastrophe to let it make you 10x dumber.

AI is a bicycle for the mind, not a brain replacement.

Wanna *really* know someone?

Forget their LinkedIn.
Forget what they say in meetings.

Look at their Google search history.

That's where you find the real person. The curiosity, the confusion, the late-night debugging. The truest resume there is.
