What most people don’t realize about AI tools/websites promising to build end-to-end apps is the hidden complexity of their infrastructure. Where’s your backend hosted? How is your database managed? Since these tools target complete beginners, they rarely provide transparency about deployment details—and that’s their business model. They make deploying apps super easy, but if you’re not careful, you could burn through cash fast. These platforms often use serverless edge functions for their backend, and without proper testing, a bug or an endless-running function could cost you thousands of dollars in minutes. I’m not against these tools, but I think it’s important to understand the risks and take precautions when using them. @selfmadecoder

Dumbness is a state, not an identity—some folks really need to understand that, even if it takes a needle to get it through 🤦‍♂. Let’s keep our egos in check, fam. @selfmadecoder

reflecting on Beka's speech at the DevFest, a while ago I wrote a toy programming language called "hahu" and uploaded it to github like a year ago. for me, it was ambitious project at the time. the speech aligns with most of us somehow

BTW, my channel is featured on the home widget of @standard_decoded / @dera_et ⚡️😁🔥 @selfmadecoder

today's DevFest was awesome—totally recharged my energy 😁. Met so many cool folks, and it was just great 🔥. I genuinely love being around other devs, fr. Attended sessions by Chapis, Beka, and Fraol, and man, they were absolutely amazing. Kudos to @GDGAddis @selfmadecoder
