Just stop please, its super f'n lame.
Being an indie app maker, is rarely set and forget.
Its more like set, optimize and endlessly maintain.
πΉ I took my kids to the park
πΉ Spent 2 hours doing a workout and PT
πΉ Planned my trip to Sweden
All while my AI coded for me.
Work-life balance is no longer an impossible dream,
Its finally an achievable reality.
What a time to be alive π

Time is folding in strange ways.
Weβre not heading into the future.
Weβre already halfway there.
We are officially closer to 2050 than to 2000.
Wild... right?

This will blow your mind:
God is a #vibecoder.
We are the vibe.
Let that sink in.
I think Rick Rubin is trying to tell us that Jesus is a #vibecoder π
So maybe I got it all wrong ..
AI might actually be God!!
For years I thought productivity was about features and tools.
I chased checklists, views, integrations.
Now I see it clearly:
Productivity is automation.
Less doing, more done.
That shift is changing everything β especially how I market @heymochiai.
Automations > Features
I use Cursor AND Windsurf for different reasons.
Even though they feel the same, they are quite different and excel in different areas.

When I started posting, I had no idea what I would talk about it. Its been a process of self-discovery that I am enjoying.
It turns out.. I really like nerding out on hardcore software implementations and processes. Who knew?? π€
The irony of chasing success is that through all the ups and downs you lose track of why you are working so hard in the first place
Never forget the WHY
Real freedom?
Itβs not growth hacks or dopamine dashboards β itβs doing work you're proud of.
Donβt trade your humanity for someone elseβs sales pitch.

Donβt fall for the hustle myth.
Being a βmakerβ isnβt just about shipping garbage fast, chasing revenue, and patching things later.
Sure, that can work. But itβs also soul-sucking.
Thereβs more to life than metrics.
Mastery matters. Craft matters. You matter.
π¨π¨π¨ Warning:
If you are using Claude 4 in Cursor, remember to commit and push code regularly. Its very aggressive with its code changes.
Don't say I didn't warn you!
I couldnβt code for nearly 2 years after a brutal health battle.
Every time I sat at a computer, panic hit.
I truly believed Iβd never code again.
But the past two months have been nothing short of a miracle.
Grateful beyond words to be aliveβand coding. π
Small steps π
Are you really even #vibecoding if you aren't listening to deep house music, building an AI agent at 11:30pm in an empty co-working space??
That's the only way I vibe π§βπ» πΆ π
Apple is so far behind in AI, its about to become the next ChatGPT wrapper if doesn't act quickly

Faceless marketing isnβt the futureβitβs the end of trust.
Software engineers who truly understand the fundamentals still hold a massive edge.
AI agents are powerfulβbut they default to basic solutions.
They wonβt build clean, composable architectures unless you prompt them to.
And you canβt prompt what you donβt know.
πΈ It likes to document, even without being asked!
πΈ Reasoning is scary good β clear, accurate, borderline genius
πΈ Still hardcodes some string comparisons like it's 2010β¦ weird
I'm officially switching from Gemini Pro to Claude 4.
No regrets.
πΈ Instantly leveled up my prompt game β got perfect JSON outputs on first try
πΈ It loves to test β generates scripts, runs them, fixes bugs on the spot
πΈ Destroyed every software architecture challenge I threw at it (think: factory, services, clean layering)
I spent the weekend deep in Claude 4. π€―
6 takeaways that blew my mind:
Claude just created the most beautiful AI model abstraction I have ever seen. Saved me at least 2-3 days of implementation and testing..
I want to cry π
If I get 10 or more likes here, I will drop the code π

Overall feel pretty good moving forward. I am going to take a reset and evaluate over the weekend. Planning to watch last mission impossible movie in IMAX tomorrow!!
Have a great weekend everyone hope you all get rest and enjoy some nature!! β€οΈ π
(pics from the week)
πΉ Struggling with race conditions for rapid messaging
πΉ Understanding the true depth of complexity of handling edge cases for AI agents
πΉ Doubting I will ever be able to be good at content creation (lost followers)
