Did I get that right?
Pre-codex:
Local card game: there's a very specific card game played in my country, there's online game rooms, but I want to get something like lichess.org or chess.com scale, oriented towards competitive play, with ELO (instead of social aspects), ideally I would get thousands of users and use it as a portfolio piece while making it open source.
cafetren.com.ar: Screen product for coffee shops near train stations with real time train data.
Post-codex:
SilverLetterai.com: Retook a project for an autonomous sales LLM assistant, building a semi-fake store to showcase the product (I can fulfill orders if they come by dropshipping), but I also have a friend and family order which I should do after this. 2 or 3 years late to the party, but there's probably a lot of work in this space for years to come.
Retook Chess Engine development, got unstuck by letting the agent do the boring busywork, I wish I would have done it without, but I don't have the greatest work ethic, hopefully one day I will manually code it.
Finally, like everyone else, I'm not quite 100% content with the coding agents, so I'm trying to build my own. Yet another coding agent thingy. But tbf this is more for myself than as a product. If it gets released it's as-is do what you want with it.
This is not an appropriate analogy, at least not right now.
Code Agents are generating code from prompts, in that sense the metaphor is correct. However Agents then read the code and it becomes input and they generate more code. This was never the case for compilers, an LLM used in this sense is strictly not a compiler because it is not cyclic and not directional.
Did she ask you to cure this tumor? Did she ask you to post about it?
This is a common story in disability and chronic illness communities -- a partner gets so fixated on the illness they forget the human afflicted with it. The ill partner goes to the grave wishing their partner would stop fighting and start just spending their remaining time filling their lives with joy.
It leads to especially dark places when they don't succeed.
I wish him all the best, but don't lose sight of the human suffering the illness and what they want.
A subtle change that I think could have a lot of potential impact is changing it to "I'm going to try to cure".. instead of "I'm going to cure".
It will still be true, it will still be an act of love, but it removes the aspect of being a way to avoid the pain of a loss. In fact, if you face the likelihood of loss, then you will be able to actually optimize for increasing likelihood of a cure instead of risking optimizing for maximal coping mechanism.
And that often means you can select across domain expertise, not just technical expertise.
If you are building a real estate SaaS for office managers and you build it in vanilla javascript and node. You have a base of 10k engineers available right now, one of which might have managed an office, or tried to be a remax rep. If you build it in svelte and the latest rust framework, you will probably hire 2 engineers specializing in that narrow stack
The idea is to get tons of reps in, across varied situations, with excellent advice to build good intuitions and decision making abilities. Or to stop making bad or terrible decisions. Or just play poker for free.
I'd like to monetize with at least the hand history format open sourced. Ping me if you would like to get involved with GTM and the revenue side of things.

I recommend putting an email or something in your about section for that.
