Eyy! Nice idea. I need to try to see how things work.

I dont know why Apple doesnt improve Siri. They have every resources on earth.

Steve had the vision …

Yes. I do. I enjoy ruby so much.

After 10 years working with Java. Now I dont wanna go back anymore.

It is about your taste and philosophy. I dont think it related skill issue.

The key is putting your SaaS in front of people who need it. Here are something I did: - Find a group that your potential customers there (on Reddit, Facebook,) ... post your work there. - Create content on IG/Tiktok/Facebook/... - Final is using paid ads FB ads/Google Ads/...

They call these works are "marketing".

2 weeks and $500. Everyday is around $35. Based on my experience, it is quite a reasonable number.

Congratz Tony! He has been very good at creating products for years. Since he was a student. The way he studied, the way he worked, just so different from the rest of us.

It feels so good that your story in the front page of HN. 45k is not a big number for HN crowd, but it is a fortune here in my country.

Keep going my friend!

P/s: I am his classmate at the university.

Thank you for the post!

Wow! The Heztner price is too good to be true. I need to make a migration to it

I had exactly the same problem. Recently, with the help of ChatGPT (just free version). When I didnt know anything, I just asked. The result was pretty good.

I also wrote stupid code first in my own version, and copied + pasted to chatGPT, asked it to improve it, or rewrite in ruby on rails style. And wow!! The rewrote version even went with explanation.

Beside that, you can use Rails console to test.

Old reddit has less bugs too. First time, using reddit, I used the new version. But my internet connection was too bad, this caused a lot of problems with the new version.

When I knew about the old version, I tried. And wow, almost every bugs I had with the new one went away. Faster load too.

At first, I thought it was a python framework from making desktop UI. As I remember, there is a python framework with almost similar name.

Congratz on the first stable version!

P/s: as I am getting older, I am just too tired for new frontend stuffs.

I can feel you. I was in the same situation.

In the end, my team broken up. Cofounders (my best friends) left. We are not friend anymore.

I closed that company and start a new one. Luckily, things are better now. Dont outsource sale, someone need to do that. That is a hard lession

I have the same thought. Bootstrap is still my favorite choice.

In my opionion, WLB = work life balance

So what do we pay for except computing power?

Ease of scale? Ease of development cost? Or other marketing material?

This is what I am using right now. It is quick for prototype. Saved a lot of time.

I dont really like the Admin panel. It has performance issues when we have more than 100k rows of data (due to the limitation of Administrate). We had to customize it to make it run normally.

Admin panel gems in Rails world have bad UI with a lot of problems.

“Ready, Fire, Aim: Zero to $100 Million in No Time Flat”

This book helped me a lot, to know what need to prioritize for my business

Yes, I have the same thought.

I didnt know that is its name. Thank you for the phrase.

Just checked it, it’s very fast. Will the speed still the same if the network bigger?

I am not sure accepting crypto is a good idea in my case, since my customers are low tech. They dont know much about these things.

Last time, when I made a transaction on ETH, it took me 10 mins for wait nodes to confirm and costed me about 20$ of transaction fee.

How about the speed of Bitcoin network now? Just curious.

Thank you. Let me check it

Thank you! Let me check it

Thank you so much for the suggestion.

I am from Viet Nam. But it will take me a lot of time (1 - 2 months) just for only paper work before really integrate with their payment gateway.

Klaviyo or Mailchimp? They are both easy to work with. But a little bit pricey. With that amount of emails, I think it would be around 150$/month.

You can save a lot of time with email delivery issues.

You dont have to read a lot of books about this topic.

In my exp, I tried a lot of software, then remember what make me happy when using.

Apply these designs in practice. Watch other people using, and improve. Then do the loop.

Then if you have time, read books later. Practice make more sense.

Sorry, but the design for reading on this site is just too bad. I hate it. Why dont you keep it simple?

Really? Is this how design works?

This has been a problem for Bank in Viet Nam for a year.

They faked Bank’s message, and send the link with the same UI of the bank. Many people got hacked.

I got a few messages like this. The only thing I could do was informing my friend (none-tech) to avoid these things.

The architecture of opensource applications: http://aosabook.org/en/index.html

I read this book years ago, and still read it now.

I used to have the same thought, and had the same setup with you. Coding with sublime text, training ML via Colab Pro.

But one day, when I had to render 1.7 GB photoshop file for my work. It was just too different. My 2015 Mac Pro took me 2h15m to render, and Mac Air M1 just 17m.

I run the same business. If I started again, here is how I would do it.

Ignore the website part. When someone asks to buy your art, just send them a message. Communicate, send them your bank account or Paypal. When you receive the payment, ship the item.

----------

If I were you, I'd create Reddit/IG/FB/Tiktok account.

On Reddit: Find a subreddit that you think people interested in your art. Post your arts there.

On Tiktok: make videos of your art with trending music.

On IG: Post your arts frequently. Post reels with your Tiktok content. Follow for follow strategy still works.

On FB: Find groups you think people interested in your arts, and post.

If your arts are not violated any copyright policy. Create an Etsy account. Post your listing there, and redirect everyone to this.

----------

This is a real business, you have to spend time and effort to make it work.

Not only marketing part, but product part too. You have to research what the market want, and draw following what they want to see (Not what you want to draw)

Don't expect overnight success.
