I have thoughts on how I might monetize CommonRSS on commonrss.com/pricing (instead of an actual pricing page.) I'd sure love people's thoughts. I'm not sure if my plan is reasonable/worthwhile/etc #buildinpublic #webdev #solodev #indiedev #maker #rss #saas

@chriscoyier.net I appreciate your fair assessment re: CommonRSS! And I agree with your point about quickly built apps and knowing if they are for real, for the long term. Short answer: I'd love nothing more than to make it a thing! Slightly longer answer: www.studio303.dev/blog/commonr...

I'm thinking that with commonrss.com I want to change the "friend"ing flow to be more intentional. Like code based and no search for people. Only people youve intentionally linked with will you share notes and comments and stuff with #webdev #indiedev #solodev #buildinpublic

A couple days ago @chriscoyier.net mentioned wanting a more social forward RSS reader. I'm a longtime fan so here we are. Chris, if you see this, I hope you like it! I'd love to round it out with a permanent archive and other cool stuff. www.commonrss.com #solodev #buildinpublic

People tell me that using an LLM to create code will rot my programming-language skills. So? We work in a changing landscape, and agility is essential to survive. My goal is not to be the best Python (or whatever) programmer on the planet. 1/9

I’d like to see an explicitly social-forward RSS reader. Like it’s encouraged to highlight passages and leave short comments. Your buds see yours, you see your buds.

Any #indiedev #gamedev folks have any advice or recommended reading for someone just starting? I'm working feverishly on a digital CCG but fear I won't have any chance putting it in front of anyone.... #solodev #ccg #tcg

I think #ai is generally fantastic but because I love #creativewriting and have been a #fiction writer for a very long time I find myself personally aghast at the idea of having ai write fiction for me. But I love it as a helpful tool which is why I built WorkshopAI the way I did www.workshopai.app

Thrilled to announce that I'm looking for beta testers for WorkshopAI - an MFA style short fiction workshop using diverse ai personas. Beta testers get 30 days free of the ultimate plan - no CC needed. #writingcommunity #writingtools #creativewriting #buildinpublic www.studio303.dev/blog/introdu...

I've been really itching to make something with the #aiagents architecture and now I'm greenfielding something that's going really well. Even if nobody ever uses it I'm making it so it could be useful to me personally at least

Calling it RAG #ai almost sounds like I'm being derogatory to it 😅 RAG = Retrieval-augmented generation and it let's you add onto the knowledge base of an LLM specific (and up-to-date content) about a particular context. It's fascinating to me and I'm really enjoying the work. #llm #freelance

It's interesting to come back four months later and think of all that's been done. I put the #gamedev on hold (but am still excited about it) and completely revamped www.studio303.dev, published my first Notion templates, and built a RAG #ai #chatbot to sell as an addon for websites #buildinpublic

Anyone else ever spend a bunch of time refactoring trying to fix a bug and then realize that it was a super simple fix and none of the fancy shit you were just trying was necessary and then find yourself literally cackling aloud at the situation???? 🫠😅 #gamedev #react #solodev #webdev #indiedev

Brad Coffield @studio303.bsky.social · 16/10/2024
In a code comment I just typo-ed "args" as "arfs" and fixed it and then went back and changed it back to arfs. That's what they are now. ARFS, ftw! #gamedev #webdev #react #solodev #indiedev

One of the things I'm really excited about is all the lore/character story creation. All the character creation stuff in general. The world building too! I've always said coding is a form of creation/creativity and is scratching that itch in an extra special way #GameDev #IndieGameDev #SoloDev

Brad Coffield @studio303.bsky.social · 10/10/2024
So, I'm a fairly longtime #webdev and I've decided to use #react and other similar tech to build a game. I'm excited about it but holy hell there's so much beyond just the coding to figure out. And the coding is quite a lot too! Excited to learn from the #gamedev community #solodev #sologamedev
