Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Wanted a cinematic scroll hero. Generated 20 seconds of 4K video. Cost: €65+ Cinematic scroll websites look expensive because they are, in fact, fucking expensive. At this rate the next section will be filmed under the bridge where I live. 000
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 08/10/2026The problem with asking AI to critique your code is that technically, there is always more shit to improve. You can refactor until retirement. 150
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Today’s dev progress: • turned the startup tombstone into an image with html-to-image • stuffed it into the form URL • wired it into the social card The dead startup now leaves behind a clean image asset. Better exit strategy than some founders get. 020
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Built a “Post to X” feature for startup funerals. Because failing privately wasn’t enough. Now you can humiliate yourself at scale. 030
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Coworking spaces are just adult daycares for people who can’t admit they’re lonely 130
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Found this old tweet by Holmes. Turns out she was using my Failwell app long before I actually built it. The internet is a strange place. 000
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 04/10/2026All these Awwwards-style websites I’ve been researching lately make me crave one ugly personal homepage made by some drunk guy in the ’90s. 130
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Today I removed some boolean spaghetti and replaced it with a proper funeral state machine. Burial flow is now: • click Bury • burial animation • blackout • aftermath card I gave the funeral app better lifecycle management than some startups had while alive. 000
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 01/10/2026GPT would start psychologically dismantling your startup and then run out of tokens halfway through, leaving founders only partially roasted. Absolutely unacceptable. Raised max_tokens because 1024 weren’t enough to fully explain what’s fucking wrong with your business. 110
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I started with memorial websites for people and pets. Now I’m building tombstones for dead SaaS products. I’m basically a React mortician working in DeathTech. 020
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Cinematic scroll websites - sexy or cringe? Do you mind sacrificing your mouse to the art of having a website direct you like fucking Christopher Nolan? 000
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Founder: “Can’t I just run my startup in peace, pretty please?” - “Oh, no, no, no. You’ve got to be a content creator, build your personal brand, start three podcasts, make videos, write books, make memes and…” Founder: “Okay, let me check something really quick.” 140
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Even with all those AI sidekicks, it was pure hell making this animation. One day, AGI will understand the universe. But not why this f***ing element moves 4px on an iPhone. 000
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 25/09/2026By naming yourself after “Kai,” you’re basically telling people you’re as endless as the ocean except your code is a shallow pond. This one was ouch 😅 110
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Whenever I get jealous of someone’s beautiful website, I disable the CSS. Boom. Now it looks like something I could’ve built. Who’s laughing now? 001
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 22/09/2026I’m calibrating the AI for my founder therapy app and need a few guinea pigs. Drop your business name below to get emotionally attacked by software. I’ll post the diagnosis tomorrow. 110
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Mr. Triangle came to me again last night. The ghost of an old browser game I started years ago and never finished. If you abandon a side project long enough, the backlog gains paranormal access 010
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Another day, another project I absolutely did not need. This one lets you give your dead startup the funeral it deserves. Need a name: • SaaSituary • DeadUnicorn • Rest in Pivot • Last Commit • Failwell • Product-Market Funeral Which one would you bury your startup under? 010
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 20/09/2026The new SaaSiatry UI looks calm, soft, and therapeutic, with all the purple-pink inkblots, glassmorphism, and gentle colors. Which is good, because the diagnosis is about to be fucking rude, lol 110
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Strong storm in Valencia. Current stack: • JavaScript inside • JavaScript weather outside • everything async • nothing under control 010
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Nothing prepares you for your joke app suddenly dropping something so accurate I have to close the tab and walk around the apartment lol 010
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 18/09/2026The Four Horsemen of the AI Apocalypse. All competing to build the thing they occasionally warn us might be a terrible fucking idea. 020
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 17/09/2026A loader like this used to cost an afternoon. • HTML • CSS • keyframes • timing tweaks • browser testing • why the fuck is it jumping Then AI arrived and said: “Cool. Want three variants?” 000
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 16/09/2026So I fed my own websites into my landing page therapist app and got diagnosed with Purple-Blue Ugly Gradient Stockholm Syndrome. I literally wrote the app and still wasn’t emotionally prepared for the results. My app is such a dick. 000
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Today I gave SaaSanity an actual brain. “Get diagnosed” now talks to Mistral through @huggingface/inference. The app can now look at your landing page and say: “yeah, this is definitely about your father” 110
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Another website that makes my own projects look like government portals. Fantastic. dogstudio.co 230
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 10/09/2026I have several unfinished projects. And I keep talking about how every founder needs focus and all. Anyway, I just started building a drum machine in JavaScript. 030
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Today I built the core flow for diagnosing founders from their landing pages. Paste landing page → trigger diagnosis → receive a structured explanation of what’s psychologically wrong with the founder. Honestly, this is the closest I’ve come to shipping healthcare software. 130
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Train Bingo is done 🚂 20 train-trip sightings. Tap what you see. Score points. Finish all 20. Get pointless confetti. Built on my phone in vanilla JS on the France → Spain train. Back in Valencia wondering why I can’t just fucking travel normally. sergeytkachenko-cj.github.io/train-bingo/ 030
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Worked on another side project while waiting for trains. Train stations are underrated coworking spaces with terrible ergonomics but excellent deadlines. «Your train leaves in 37 minutes» is damn effective project management. 130
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 05/09/2026I’ve been there! On my way to France, our car got a flat tire and we found a tire shop in Girona. Lovely city. And now I’m traveling by train lol 110
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Currently crossing France → Spain by train while building a game about being on trains. Train Bingo is being built the way software was never meant to be built: • on a train • on a phone • in vanilla JS • with no internet or AI 130
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 03/09/2026For extra stupidity, I’m building the train game old-school. No internet, no agents, no autocomplete. Just the shitty code editor I have on my phone. Train Bingo is being built in full coding-Luddite mode. I’m basically an Amish coder. 040
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Somewhere between delayed trains, weird passengers, and staring out the window for hours, I thought: this should be a game. So yes, I’m building Train Bingo. Which is how I accidentally ended up with another side project instead of simply enjoying the fucking journey. 020
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 02/09/2026I love cinematic scroll websites. Yes, they’re often annoying. Yes, they feel more like a movie than a website. But damn, when they’re done well, they look incredible. Everything except hijacking my mouse. Mouse capture is a fucking war crime. 000
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Today I spent coding time making sure a button cannot be clicked prematurely. Software engineering is extremely glamorous. 110
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 27/08/2026If your app is 12 forms, 8 API calls, and a button, maybe you don’t need to introduce an entire second language just to stop yourself from passing the wrong object. TS fans will tell you the complexity pays for itself later. But the majority of projects never reach “later” 000
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 20/08/2026If you want to discover creative ways to break your product, give it to a bunch of 3-year-olds and watch. They’ll find the one interaction state your entire team assumed no sane person would ever reach. 010
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 18/08/2026I’m traveling in France, and look what I found here. I swear you could make a fortune importing this stuff from Russia, where it costs next to nothing and grows on every bush. Why the hell have I wasted my life building those stupid SaaS products? 000
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Everyone else is orchestrating fleets of AI coding agents. I’m tapping code into a mobile editor and mentally executing it line by line. At this rate I’ll be carving functions into stone by September 120
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 07/08/2026Every React component starts innocent. Then someone adds something. Then another thing. And suddenly, you end up with this beauty: 010
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 06/08/2026My stack today: ∙ JavaScript ∙ Documentation ∙ Unnecessary hardship I’m practicing coding Luddism until I can confidently say, “I broke this myself!” P.S. Yep, that’s a plain-text editor 010
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Cats are natural founders. They understand leverage. Why hunt when you can convince a human to become your unpaid operations team? 120
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 04/08/2026I’m building SaaSanity. Part landing-page audit. Part founder intervention. Part AI saying, “This hero section is not about the customer, is it?” 140
Cj @cjaythecreator.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Manual coding is dead. Anyway, I just built an app on my phone with no internet and no console.log, like a medieval JavaScript peasant. Who’s joining my coding Amish community? 👨🏻🌾 031
