I've officially invited alpha testers to Product-1 which means soft launch isn't far behind šŸ«£

It's also high time to get a marketing plan in place while concurrently implementing tester feedback and preparing July BawkBox šŸ«

I've been waaay too in my head lately and overthinking everything šŸ˜¬

I let myself become superstitious about change and just kept going through the motions despite it being unsustainable šŸ”®

it's time to shift my perspective and try a new approach šŸ‘©ā€šŸ”¬

I stepped outside my comfort zone and tried my hand at whipping up a new profile picture for @Volagn šŸ‘©ā€šŸ³

I had a blast experimenting, collaborating and reaching this result! šŸø

now I'm really considering making a pfp library of critter portraits šŸ¦ØāœØ

Stumbling on small changes like this in #Airtable is the best! āœØ

I don't have a lot of love for the Field element, but it's gotten much swankier over the last few weeks šŸŖ©

I'm pumped to watch @Airtable continue to develop šŸ˜»

as a pet owner, July 4th sucks ducks šŸ¦†

I was prepared with pumpkin treats for doggo to gobble up šŸ¦ƒ but there was still some noisy neuroticism šŸ™‰

fortunately s'mores cookies are a thing and they're glorious šŸŖ

Four months ago, API calls and debugging were out of my comfort zone šŸ›

But when my Pipedream workflow returned an undefined message after an API call from #Airtable, I got dogged šŸ©

It took some time and cursing, but I resolved it! All wif my brains šŸ§  twitter.com/heyolivehaus/sā€¦

I consider myself a plebeian low-coder at best šŸ‘©ā€šŸŒ¾

I've been trying to handle API calls between Airtable bases via Pipedream.

Returning data to the #Airtable extension's become a yuge flustercluck šŸ“

Respectfully šŸ¤Œ the messages are *not* undefined šŸ˜¤

I'm short on good shows so trying to ration them šŸ¤

I also finished Burden of Proof, a tragic true crime doc with lotsa twists šŸ„Ø

I developed some atrocious habits while shipping Bawk Box, like working until bedtime which has inexplicably become 5AM šŸ˜¬

I'm finding it more difficult to undo said habits than anticipated šŸ™ˆ

Acclimating to #indiemaking has been a real son of a gun šŸ« šŸ”„

I watched the @Airtable product roadmap yesterday which just so happened to include fully-responsive mobile apps!

*shock šŸ«Ø and awe*

I immediately died. Croaked. I am undead now šŸ’€

This is the missing piece I've been eagerly awaiting for over a year šŸ„ŗ
