George is definitely one of the #GOAT in the #buildinpublic space. πŸ†

πŸ€” Interesting tidbits:
πŸ’° Doesn't care about money
πŸ™Š Twitter should refactor for next 6mo, not roll features
πŸ€– @comma_ai = level 2, no compliance distraction

This #buildinpublic stuff often feels 🐌 slow & 😧 frightening b/c there aren't always finished or flashy ✨ things to share.

IDK if weekly is too narrow for status reports. πŸ€·πŸΏβ€β™‚οΈ Sometimes all we've completed βœ… are custdev-related. Much in WIP 🐎 but often "boring" BTS stuff too.
This week's progress:

πŸ˜… painstakingly brewing WIP fixes/improvements to comments-handling and Kanban fixes
🀬 slow progress on getting SSO w/ GitHub + Google

Big picture🌠: working towards a better reader UX + private repo xs by EoY! πŸŽ†

#buildinpublic
Signing off to cook, eat, workout a bit (while watching SWAT on #Netflix) and then sleep. 😴

Reason: computer needs a restart... probably overworked 🫒

#buildinpublic tomorrow is another day
A few minutes into the morning and already a puzzle from last night youtube.com/clip/UgkxSzdCW… solved. 🧩 Sometimes the mind just needs rest. πŸ’€ Still not happy. There must be a short-hand to define a deeply nested field in jq and drop those brackets. Any ideas? πŸ€·πŸΏβ€β™‚οΈ #buildinpublic
βœ… shipped UI fixes
βœ… settled on EoY prod prios w/ team πŸ”­
βœ… cont'd w/ auth (GitHub login: key for our EoY #MVP launch).

Managed to max out my presence here in #BKK (especially branding-related)πŸ₯­πŸšπŸ‡ΉπŸ‡­πŸ† and am positively exhausted! πŸ₯± Back to Berlin. πŸ»πŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺ

This week's progress:

πŸ‘€ rolled out some UX improvements (many more in the works ⏳) loom.com/share/d5db0a72…
πŸ”‘ kicked off work on social sign-in for GitHub (to enable private repo xs by EoY πŸŽ†)
πŸ€–πŸ€” completed a bunch of experiments & interviews for new insights

Stream was fun and I GTD! Now ordering some fried rice and veggies (morning glory) before going home for some Billions with the missus. Tired but aggressively mining that Bangkok energy before heading back to the German winter next week. #todaywasagoodday #buildinpublic twitter.com/vidbina/status…
Come watch my tired ass stream at youtu.be/rwjBBm8mCH0 . I'm heading to the office now. #scooter #buildinpublic twitter.com/vidbina/status…

This week felt rly slow even though we completed many hiring & custdev calls.

Sometimes it's hard to see progression when output is "less tangible".

As an engineer, it's hard to keep doing the hard stuff (custdev, admin) instead of the fun hacking-type stuff. πŸ˜… #buildinpublic
This week's progress:

πŸ”‘ basic integration steps have been made on the @orycorp front
πŸ‘οΈπŸ—¨οΈ many more chats w/ customers (lower eng output due to focus on these chats) 😭
🎁 interviewed product management talents (focus: feature prioritization and custdev)

Nope from YC was a bummer past weekend but also a good moment of reflection. 😌

Plenty to do better! Excited about the space and what we'll end up learning & building until the next call for applications. 🏁 Hellbent on killing tooling rage! 😑 #challengeaccepted #buildinpublic

Fun fact: bumped into YC's Ralston while running around & had a brief chat. Awkwardly stumbled over my words like a 🀩 kiddo. A bit bummed out about that not-so-smooth encounter but heyπŸ€·πŸΏβ€... a "human" moment to keep me humble/sharp. Taking the learnings to heart. #buildinpublic
Sry for the late #fridayreport. Last week at @WebSummit was wild 🀯. Still rearing & gathering insights & need your help (2m survey) so pls share h8d701bcme8.typeform.com/to/z4DjWYjQ?ut…

Played w/ #GPT3 for some docs-related magic for fun. So many ideas, so little time. ⏱

Snap! 😭 Just learned that @GrabLabs (almost) has the same logo as @formationtools while setting up a Twitter extension for @twitch. Guess it's back to the drawing board for me. πŸ–Œ

Chance encounter. 🎲 Probably says that my design chops are not too shitty tho. 🀣 #buildinpublic
