Tbh. Business processes are build on hallucinations. So it might fit well.

Now we all have to learn to ask the right business questions 😄

Unfortunately self-service BI goes beyond data access. But it is a cool step forward.

Silent mode for some weeks and plenty of refactoring for the tracking plan generator. Major change, swapped Supabase for Convex and Sonnet 3.7 for 4.0. It generated this for a Miro use case:

That looks really good. What kind of stack are you using?

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 13/05/2025

Puh - the new Propagandhi album is going deep... Really good, but completely different from what I thought it would be.

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 09/05/2025

Don't ask. I saw something that someone build for himself and I liked the approach so much, that I wanted something similar. Then it started of with some vibe coding until it got to a specific stage.

Good day - part 2. First successful deployment of the home-built course platform. Some more tests, and we can move the people from Circle to it.

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 09/05/2025

Good day - I generated the first test tracking plan via the app. My usual test case: Miro. 30s, 6 entities, 38 events (maybe a bit too many), 45 properties. Quality - quite close to my manual designs. Next step - make the table look nicer.

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 08/05/2025

That is mostly a problem of scale. Human produced content sometimes intends meaning. Sociopathic content aka gossip and friends are making people dumber since 10k. The scary thing is the scale. That is true.

010

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 07/05/2025

No - what I meant it was said, that it makes people dumber. And it was said about so many other things (like reading comics as a kid or YouTube). Therefore I don't believe in making dumb anymore.

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 07/05/2025

It be worth a test. I completely agree with you about strong personal thoughts or storylines. Not so much about who writes it out. But everyone picks different tools. And has different objectives.

010

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 07/05/2025

Was this not also said about newspapers and most likely printing press. It’s an evolution. Will it change this - definitely. Will all be good, no. But there will be good stuff.

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 06/05/2025

What do you recommend someone who hates writing sentences? I love to break down thoughts, outline them, fine tune the story. But I don’t like to write it out.

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 04/05/2025

Incremental with SQLmesh - oh la la.

I have a list with 80s and 90s action movies. I won't go for vinyl - this will become too expensive. You can watch the Steph Curry docu on Apple+ to upgrade yourself 😅

I guess my version of midlife crisis is thinking about buying band shirts again - I know a mild version. Talking to Johan van de Werken (not if you are on BS) does not help.

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 29/04/2025

Ok, I am pushing it now - create tracking plans with multiple models, synthetize and do cherry picking to get your perfect tracking plan. But beware, I will show warnings when create more than 20 events. This is an opinionated software.

020

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 29/04/2025

It looks so innocent in that stage - I could keep it for simplicity like this - but there is this urge for individual UI that cannot be controlled.

Unit economics is the adult version of analytics.

This pixel art was already worth working on a course withJuliana J. We plan to launch a course with the monumental title: Strategic Analytics. Join the waitlist here: lp.timodechau.com/strategic_an...

Something I always wanted to have in a tracking plan tool: auto-population of descriptions and examples. Now I added it to the HipsterDataPlan. My current optimization metric is time to the v1 version of a tracking plan. This saves me 30-60m easily.

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 24/04/2025

Ok, a year ago, I would have said a definite no to building a tracking plan/setup tool. But things have changed. I now have a way to generate really high-quality tracking plans with GenAI, so now I'll build the frontend for it. I'll keep you posted.

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 16/04/2025

Thanks to vibe coding - I do a session on the tool every morning and one every evening - adding a new feature idea and testing it throughout the day. Fine-tune and properly remove it again. And it has a shape already I would not have most likely on a traditional path.

000

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 16/04/2025

I am currently experimenting with building a task management that works perfectly just for me. I add typical task features like priority or sizes and remove them again. And maybe introduce them in a different shape. A lot of back and forth.

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 16/04/2025

One thing that I can't get out of my head. What if most digital products are compromises made too early? You rush to product market fit, but is your product that good to make a difference in the long term? Did you start to bake in features you are not passionate about because they seem reasonable?

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 13/04/2025

Me, too. Especially the pipelines.

@evidence.dev @hughess.bsky.social - Your Slack channel can only be joined with an evidence email address. I have some questions about chaining source sql files..

Watching ChatGPTs Operator creating slides for you is definitely Sloth mode work.

Interestingly when we test it, the model refused to render the picture because of privacy concerns. You could see 10% of it until it stopped.

I really wanted to find a pure European cloud warehouse alternative but no luck so far.

Oh boy, you don’t know what you have asked for.

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 13/03/2025

This new one took a bit more research than usual. Coming to your inbox in a few days.

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 11/03/2025

I don’t think so. WalkerOS has some aspects of it but no frontend.

020

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 10/03/2025

We bag disassembled sets but in one bag. So we have more fun when we do the rebuild to sort by color or type first.

020

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 10/03/2025

Still some time to switch. It is really time for an open source one.

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 27/02/2025

I usually work with designed data (event data). There I don’t need any exploration. But when I integrate data, I usually use a notebook to breakdown the dataset.

So, I ordered the Glove80 - wish me luck.

Podcast cover work has started ... it's coming closer.

Ok, a friend of mine did a good job of summarizing this: The EAST has been f****d over 3 times in a row: F****D by NAZI dictatorship. F****D by communist dictatorship. F****D by your friendly saviour-neighbour's rip-off scheme. And now they are going for the next fup

Timo Dechau @timodechau.bsky.social · 25/02/2025

Parts of it is true, but I would say it is more complex than this.

At least it did not claim that German is a Kaff language.
