IT projects by day. Building my own things at night. Into tech, simple solutions, and progress that adds up. Sharing what I figure out along the way.

I’m a 51 years old dad with a 9 to 5 working in IT. On the side, I make app and digital assets so I could retire early and build a passive income for retirement. I also do this to keep my brain active, creative and healthy. AI allows me to accelerate this. Feels like a second chance. I’m not not going to miss this opportunity. If we’re not connected already … leave a comment and let me know why should I follow you back

This app's Analytics looks like that. Should I keep going or remove from App Store?

I focussed too much on growing on X lately and too little on building apps. It's been fun... but tonight I'm building

I just realized that the Verified Impressions you get in the Analytics are not the same with the impressions that count for the Original Content Rewards. I had 6000 verified impressions yesterday in Analytics but only 3200 counted against the Original Rewards counter. Because that counter doesn't include impressions on replies - while analytics does. so 5555 impressions per day needed for the rewards really means you need to have those only on your original posts. Your Verified Analytics should show at least 10k if not more to get that 5555 for the counter. So if you want this, focus on original content... not replies. The Reply Guy job is dead.

Your customers are too polite to tell you why your product sucks. I'm not. Drop a link. (if you dare) I'll give you my honest first impression.

I have some good news for you! your most annoying habit, picking up the phone 1000 times a day, can be the key to build a healthy habit. and no, you don’t need another app you don’t need an account a habit tracker all you need is to hack your psychology If you read Atomic Habits, you must know about habit stacking. Add a habit you want to make to one that you already have. Don’t allow yourself to pick up the phone and check X or social media or YouTube until you finish the task you want to turn it into a habit. Don’t pick up your phone until you tidy up the kitchen in the morning Don’t pick up your phone until you take a walk Don’t pick up your phone until you do your morning workout Don’t pick up your phone until you drink a glass of water Don’t pick up your phone until you finish answering your emails in the morning Don’t pick up your phone until you ….you get it And this doesn’t have to be only one time a day. Stack this habit with anything you do during the day. When the urge to pick up the phone comes ask yourself… what should I be doing now? Do that and then pick up the phone as a reward. If you want to try it…bookmark this post… try it for the next time you want to pick up the phone and let me know how it works.

ok, serious question: if AI can write better code than you... are you still the senior developer?
