I ran out of money so I've been working as a data engineer at a mid level startup. I'll come back to indie hack soon...

Full system reboot: sleep schedule hard reset after crazy gathering with Ivy League folks. Back to 5AM wakeups, monk mode engaged. Let’s build !!!
Survived a “small” gathering w/ MIT & Stanford grads, full intellectual combat + chaos. Party wrapped at 4PM the next day
Got hit with some takes: if you're already in working for SF startup, Ivy League master's might be a detour, not an upgrade. Kinda convinced to not do a master now.
going out of my cave to talk to some master data scientists from MIT in real life about AI and LLMs
Officially become a vampire, I'm sleeping at 9am and waking up at 4 -6pm. I tend to work better at nights. I'd love to experiment with Nikola Tesla or Edison weird sleep cycles to increase productivity and creativity. However they transform the world and I'm just creating small consumer and b2b saas. However, If I ever reach good MRR I'd love to spent some good $$$ on R&D things outside software. Money should flow to other areas of humanity, not just tech.
Stop using cursor for a couple of hours because it keeps making mistakes and just do regular code with emmet. It's incredible how good and bad LLM models can be
daily reminder, talking to people on twitter is not productivity, it is not shipping. It should be controlled and limited, even vibe coding is more useful
Started using X to build an audience, only to realize I’m stuck in low engagement jail.
Back on WIP after nearly 3 years away, spent working for VC backed startups. Now it's time to escape the matrix, ma bois
