pr07ecH70r commented on Ask HN: How do you maintain a state of flow when "vibe engineering"?    · Posted by u/s-a-p

I use vibe coding for trivial stuff that otherwise will take me lot of time to code myself or for languages I don’t know. I either feed the LLM the whole code module, or since the beginning of a vibe-coded module, I copy all the prompts and responses into a word file (easier to parse) and feed it back to the LLM if I need a bug fix or change. Most of the modules, however, I write myself.

I think it was rather a poor try in "knowledge exchange" but it is not sustainable in the long run.

My son (who is 7 and knows already basic maths) can tell you that if a giant production like Apple moves to the US will cost at least 90% or even more to produce. This automatically will make them 110+% more expensive, which will destroy the demand. And who will pay?! The biggest market - USA (~43% as of 2024) Interesting who are the finance advisors of the guy in the white house?!? Good luck!

Time = Money, thus it should not be a surprise that with such proportionality between the two, one with his financial capabilities, could in theory buy time.
pr07ecH70r commented on Ask HN: Have you considered outsourcing your side projects?    · Posted by u/croqueton
pr07ecH70r · a year ago
I did and still do quite some outsourcing (hiring freelancers) for my projects. Since I work for myself, I am also monetizing on my side projects. I also don’t have time, but this is part of the reason. Simply, there a lot of stuff I don’t know how to do, and an experienced freelancer does not only help, but can teach you a lot of stuff.

Until recently, with alcohol. Which is completely wrong, and fortunately, realized it on time. Now with less “f-s” given, more reading (fiction and fantasy) and more walking (preferably early in the morning when it is quiet).

This is going to boost the bike and sneakers sales... at least until the in-bike and in-sneakers ads. :D

pr07ecH70r commented on Ask HN: Startup Pricing Models when competing with Giants    · Posted by u/psovit
pr07ecH70r · a year ago
Competing with a big player on the market just with pricing is a lost cause in my opinion.

The few startups solving the same problems that actually win against big players (by winning understand biting a fair portion of the total pie to survive) are doing so by solving this problem fundamentally differently. Your innovative approach must be really innovative to stand a chance against the big guys. This has to be something completely different to stand a chance.

Offering lower price will not be sustainable for you in the long run I think. This will definitely hold you back on the growth side. Not to mention what the customer might think - lower price = lower quality. Besides a big player has a lot of resources! They can squeeze you out of the market easily with your lower price.

I am an unsuccessful former founder :) . But I made some similar mistakes. In my opinion, rocket-marketing and completely innovative product are the two musts for the successful groundwork of any startup.
