I asked Claude to review my code and it replied 'have you considered a career change?' Starting my snowboard instructor certification tomorrow.

Launching is the exciting part. What matters is the week after. This week: reading every comment, watching how people use the MCP server, fixing what breaks, talking to everyone who tries it. Monday's plan: zero new features. 100% listening.

We launched the BlackTwist MCP server this week. No Product Hunt. No email blast. No paid ads. Just a video, a few posts, and people telling other people about it. The best launches don't feel like launches. They feel like sharing something useful with people who already care.

Most interesting thing about building the MCP server: it changed how I think about product design. Instead of designing a UI for every action, I'm designing a conversation. The user just says what they want. The MCP server figures out the rest. This is where SaaS tools are headed.

People keep debating whether AI will replace developers. Ask instead: what part of your job do you wish someone else would do? The tedious stuff. The boilerplate. The "I've written this same function 200 times" stuff. AI didn't take your job. It gave you back the interesting parts.

TIL: you can hold the spacebar on your iPhone keyboard and it turns into a trackpad. Move your cursor anywhere without tapping. I've been using iPhones since 2008 and I only found out about this today.

I connected BlackTwist to my AI assistant. Now I manage Threads by talking to it. "Schedule a post for tomorrow at 9am." Done. "Show me my engagement this week." Instant. This is the BlackTwist MCP server. Works with Claude, Cursor, and other AI tools. Launch video tomorrow.

Your side project doesn't need more features. It needs more conversations with the 5 people already using it.

I love milestones and reminder notifications. They help me stay consistent and motivated on social media. (We all know consistency is everything when it comes to building an audience)

I am shocked, look at what my Claude Code wants to do today 👀

I used to start every morning the same way. Open BlackTwist. Check analytics. Write a post. Schedule it. Check follower growth. Open another tab. And so on. It worked. But it was a lot of clicking. Last month I started doing all of that without leaving my AI assistant. I'll show you tomorrow.

I let AI write 80% of my code now. And I'm a better developer because of it. Before you call me lazy, hear me out.

Sunday morning. My family is still sleeping. Coffee is ready. The code editor is open. This is the hour that builds the future.

A number that keeps me up at night: 534. That's how many people visit BlackTwist from social media every month. Not from ads. Not from SEO. From organic social content. People are talking about us — without us asking. That's the power of building in public.

I've been testing something for the past few weeks that changed how I manage my Bluesky account. No more opening the dashboard. No more switching tabs. I just type what I want and it happens. More soon.

I am cooking something epic for you

The best code I ever wrote was the code I deleted.

Unpopular opinion. The 9 to 5 is the best thing that ever happened to my side project. Here's why most indie hackers get it wrong:

The thing I love doing the most is supporting others! So if you landed here, send a message and I'll give it to you :)

Great move from Apple with the MacBook Neo. I can already see many students getting this small, cool, and performant laptop as their first Mac.

I used ChatGPT to write a full backend feature yesterday. Took 45 minutes instead of 4 hours. Then I spent 2 hours fixing everything it got wrong. Net time saved: 1 hour 15 minutes. Still worth it. That's an extra feature per week.

Hot take: follower count is the worst metric on social media. I've seen creators with 500 followers get more replies than accounts with 50K. Engagement rate > vanity numbers. Every time.

I'm 40. After 3 years of indie hacking on the side, I learned the hard way. Here are 12 lessons I wish I knew when I started:

The #1 thing that separates creators who grow from those who don't: Consistency. We tracked 2,000+ creators. The ones who post 5+ times per week grow 3x faster than those who post once or twice. It's not about going viral. It's about showing up.

Mattia and I shipped 5 major features in 2 weeks last month. Milestones. Leaderboard. AI Post Generator. Viral Template Library. Full Analytics Revamp. None of them were in the original plan. All of them came from user feedback. Stop guessing. Start listening.
