Developers and testers reality

Every developer knows this feeling. 😂 Coding alone: “Easy. I got this.” Coding while someone watches: “Why isn't it working?” “It worked 2 seconds ago!” “Did I change something?” “PLEASE STOP LOOKING AT MY SCREEN.” 💀 The code doesn't change. Your brain just enters production outage mode. Be honest: Do you debug better alone or under pressure? 👇

Hot take: Vibe coding is loved most by people who have never written a single line of code.

Is TikTok genuinely entertaining, or has our attention span completely collapsed?

Really?😂🥹

Vibe coders doesn’t read code, doesn’t review code, doesn’t even know what shipped They just gaslights an llm until it says “done”, hits deploy and logs off

You can have 10,000 followers OR 100 people who genuinely care about what you build. Which one are you taking?

Some developers call it vibe coding when beginners use AI. But when experienced engineers use AI to build entire features, suddenly it's called an AI-powered workflow. Funny how the same thing gets a different name depending on who's doing it.

Play YouTube Videos Using Python! Did you know you can open and play YouTube videos directly from Python with just a few lines of code? Using the pywhatkit library, you can search for a song or video by name and open it on YouTube. Install the library: pip install pywhatkit Python code: import pywhatkit song = input("Enter Song Name: ") pywhatkit.playonyt(song) That's it! Enter a song name, and Python will open the corresponding YouTube result in your browser. Try it yourself and explore more ways to automate everyday tasks with Python.

The OS wars in 3 types of people 😂💻 🐧 Linux users: Spent 4 hours fixing Wi-Fi. Calls it customization. 🪟 Windows users: Restarted 3 times. Opened Task Manager for emotional support. 🍎 Mac users: Paid a fortune for a laptop. Still needs a dongle. 💀 Every OS has its own kind of suffering. Be honest: Linux, Windows, or macOS? 👇

Hot take: Most sprint planning meetings exist to make everyone feel organized without actually making the product meaningfully better for the people using it every single day

Can I be real for a sec? I'm super nervous about this launch. It's something I never thought I would do, and I want to be as transparent as possible. This course is $1,300. You should not buy it. Let me explain. I've done YouTube for over 5 years now. I've never done a paid course of any form before. I have worked hard to keep all of my content freely available. I'm lucky to have found so many awesome companies that will sponsor short sections of my videos, enabling me to employ an incredible team without compromising my content. I have always hated the idea of charging my viewers. If I can't convince a company to cover our costs, that's my failure, and I don't like putting that failure on my audience. On October 26th, my first-ever paid course with @megadevhq goes live. It's $1300 a seat. That's really expensive. I keep imagining a scenario and it makes me feel sick. I think of a young, excited dev who's recently gotten into my content. They're scared of falling behind, so they cut their expenses and save up the money, because they believe my course might be the key to getting a real dev job. Even now as I type this, I feel my heart rate increasing and my stomach flipping over itself. The thought of anyone putting themselves in a harder financial position, all because of me? This might actually be my biggest fear. I don't want to sell promises. I don't want people paying me for hope. So why did I do this course with Mega? Two reasons: the people and the content. I was hit up by Joel about this course late last year. I trust him with my life. Even then, it wouldn't have been enough to convince me. Then I learned the other instructors who would be involved. Kent, Angie and John. All three were fundamental in my growth as an engineer. Getting to work with all of them was far too exciting. Made it really hard to say no. If I had nothing unique to say, I still would have said no. I'm incredibly busy as-is, and I'm running low on space to even show you guys all the stuff I do. What pushed me over the line was the realization that there is so much I want to say that doesn't fit in a YouTube video. I just did a video about "prompting better". It's a deep dive on my real world workflows and how I think about building with AI. The only way I could get people to watch it was clickbaiting the title, "your prompts suck". What if I wasn't bound by clickability? What if I didn't have to focus on being entertaining for the whole video runtime? What if I was freed from the constrains of making content for the 500,000+ people who watch my videos? I love YouTube. I love my audience. I love the videos I make. But I'd also love to do a multi-part deep dive on "building with AI in real world code bases" that I know would bomb on YouTube. That's what I filmed for Mega. I'm so proud of it. It's fundamentally different from any videos I've done before, but still feels like me just doing my thing. Is it worth $1,300, though? If that $1,300 comes out of the same bank account that you pay rent with, probably not. Is it worth $1,300 per person to a company trying to help their eng teams use AI properly at work? In my opinion, this is a bargain. If you're paying your engineers $100k a year, and this course makes them 5% more effective at their jobs, that's a 4x ROI. What I'm trying to say is simple: Don't buy this course. Get your boss to buy it. (If you have an education budget at your job that works too. Just please don't pay for this yourself. Seriously.) Sorry for the rant. If you can't tell, I'm genuinely quite nervous about this 🙃

Everyone is going crazy over REA right now. Bro, I built a Figma clone. Bro, I built a Notion clone. Bro, I built a Shopify clone. Cool, but now what? who's going to find customers, maintain the code, fix bugs, and handle support? founders don't get paid for building clones..they get paid for building businesses.
