Thanksgiving Day Plans ... what's left

3. Build front end
#buildinpublic

I find myself as I write code holding my breath. It's not writing the code.

It's the fact that I know as I write my code it's the first time in my life my destiny has truly been in my own hands.

Happy Thanksgiving.
#buildinpublic

A lot of people say they want success but do they really?

This week I purposefully took the entire week off, cancelled going to any functions, just because I needed to GSD.

There's nothing like knowing you can rely on you.

What's up Balanced Builders --

People who are building everyday but with balance, i.e. hitting the gym, taking a walk, grabbing a coffee away from your screen.

A little balance can add a lot of perspective

#code #startups
#buildinpublic

Just finished a script that allows me to save articles to an SQS queue.

Now tomorrow to build the ingestion piece and wire it up to the front end.

Then I'll be able to update the main site with save functionality.

#code #goodday #goodnight
#buildinpublic

All right. Building the save functionality for paulineslist.org. It should be released by the end of the week.

The only place where you can see every article for a publication algorithm free and save them.

Save function coming soon.
#buildinpublic

So last night I finished a big part of my relaunch: login and password change functionality.

Next article save functionality.

I've realized recently that having a website in the beginning is a lot like baby sitting. Here are some things you can implement to make your job easier. This is AWS specific but you can use other clouds as they're all basically boxes anyway.
#buildinpublic

Having a startup is like having a baby. It requires constant care.

Analytics are like a baby monitor. Not required but you'll sleep better at night.

Right now my challenge is getting a stable platform geared toward my ICP.

I'm home on vacation and able to see what it'd be like to build my own projects full time.

One one hand the progress you can make is amazing.

On the other hand I sort of feel like an auto mechanic b/c alot of the stuff I know how to do (knock on wood). :-/

Good morning Code-cationers --

People who code on vacation to make their vacation a lifestyle.

As a developer learning is fundamental. As a founder you have to be careful of the learning trap. You still can learn (and should!) but not always about the newest tech.

After tech then marketing then finance then ... . Not tech tech tech.

Good Morning to the Brave and Smart --

The people willing to take a shot at the American dream but smart enough not to risk everything while doing it, smart enough to know that 10 small bets are usually better than one big one.

Good Morning to the Hopeful --

Since I've been building in public and becoming a part of this community I've felt more hopeful.

Funny how even the idea of taking control of your financial and destiny makes you feel hopeful.

Imagine that.

#Software #code

This is such a great community. Today I was listening to the @IndieHackers podcast with @denicmarko and hearing about his marketing ability and how blog posts and continuously being a informative voice helped @PlausibleHQ.

I learned so much.

Thx community.

Good Morning Non-Commuters --

Or as I like to call you, people who's side projects became full-time profitable jobs.

I'll be joining you soon.
