At the time this looked bad.
But the dude was actually a genius.
16k followers on X to market his next app.
@leojr94_ should I get hacked?
Attended a presentation today where the author of Recut reviewed the progression of his landing page over time. Some interesting notes:
- Asking for an email to download the trial did not have a notable impact vs a straight download URL.
- Pain language / story-mode was way more successful than posting a price/buy button above the fold.
It's a neat little app if you ever find yourself editing videos. #buildinpublic
Remember that app from yesterday? I spent a bit of time on fine tuning!
Chat, did I cook with this?
I love this so much. #BuildInPublic #psychedelic #maker #lamp
Public newsletter archives for Keila (publishing your newsletter as a website) have long been requested by users and I'm currently working on adding them

Good morning builders
OpenAI’s new Codex is wild.
I assigned 5+ tasks, went for coffee, came back to working PRs.
It debugs, writes tests, explains code, and pushes changes — all in the cloud.
No local setup. Just async dev work.
This might be the biggest shift in how we build since GitHub.
Current project structure in @strengthy. I’m a big fan of modularization and moving as much project configuration as possible outside the Xcode project file. The only code that lives in the app targets is the app entry point, everything else is inside different targets in the Libraries package.

I added configurable 311 color maps to the latest release of my NYC buildings app for iOS. You can make your own filter, choosing from almost 2k service request types.
It’s fun and interesting to play with; I’m excited to share it!
UPDATE: I got enough! Blankie is now on Homebrew! THANK YOU!

My #OpenSource #Mac app is only 14 GitHub stars short of being eligible to add to Homebrew. I’m so close!
Fediverse friends, if you have a sec it would mean a lot if you could toss a star my way! #BuildInPublic #Swift #MacDev
We are going live in 10 mins. We are working on code quality and tests. See you on https://www.twitch.tv/war1and.
I wonder if spamming hashtags will make a small indie app developer blow up on X.
You seeing this?
When you use Swift Testing, make sure any @\Tests(arguments:) helper arg Struct/Class conforms to CustomTestArgumentEncodable. Write the `func encodeTestArgument(to encoder: some Encoder)` just like any other encoder with stable and unique values, omitting large non-unique values.
If you omit this you'll hit "encountered an error (Received unexpected event testCaseDidStart for $test (iteration 1). Test already started.)" (repeatedly)
