Nice. I'm more worried about privacy in general, wouldn't want to do something like this until I have a team that's developing the bulk of the sw along me. That way I'm sure even if someone steals something it's not gonna be that bad...
Plus, I'm pretty secretive in general, but I guess I need to get out of my comfort zone to grow! Thx for sharing all of that, appreciate you :)
I'm also a private person that doesn't like a ton of attention, but I'm forcing myself to be more open as running a business requires you to talk to users and make your presence known to some extent (at least, if you care about how your product is received). I see it as a way to get exposure as well - someone might watch the stream and decide to buy the product when it's done because they liked the fact that I was open enough to stream the process of building it, who knows.
I also think it's hard for someone to steal your entire codebase just by looking at a few frames of a video where you had a couple files open. If you structure your code in a modular way, all of the code won't be in one file anyway so they would be missing many pieces of the puzzle if they wanted to copy your work
Just make sure you don't accidentally look at your environment variables with a secret value visible on the screen. I may or may not have done that by accident and may or may not have had to rotate some API keys after the stream was done :)
Yeah exactly, I’m just starting with once per week. Feels like less of an invasion of privacy that way.
