Even my dog couldn’t resist and caught herself a duck… check out the current version at www.getduckout.com Going to tweak some final things but it’s almost there 🦆😎 #buildinpublic #indiedev #gamedev #developer #indiehacker #LFG

Finally got to creating a game i really enjoyed making AND love to play.… and I’m finalizing v1.0.0… It’s time to pull a classic game into this era letting you use hand tracking to aim and meanwhile keep the nostalgic 90’s vibe #buildinpublic #game #gamedev #wip

20+ years of building summed up: 1. Kid era: Photoshop & learning to speak machine. 2. Seeker era: Looking for the "perfect" code. 3. Founder era: Twins, vlogs, and the Indie Hackers mindset. 4. AI era: Dad of 3, teaching AI devs, and running a consultancy that turns ideas into automated reality. ⬇️

My secret weapons shaped and remain the same: Pomodoro timers, Lean Startup principles, and a refusal to waste time on fluff. If you’re moving from "Idea" to "Solution" using AI, we should talk. 🛠️ #eekayonline #buildinpublic

Gave a presentation on “AI developer in 2026+” for trainees yesterday with (unscripted) demos of @cursor_ai and @openclaw. Big part was assuring they’re not obsolete (before even starting) but changing focus from code to managing AI & defining your workflows etc. #ai #developer

A 🧵 on why you shouldn’t be blinded by the M4 hype: Why a refurbished Mac from 2022 is a better AI beast than a brand-new M4 Mac Mini (~ same price). If you’re running local LLMs or tools like OpenClaw, you need to look past the chip generation. #LocalLLM #AppleSilicon 👇

The M1 Max offers 3x the bandwidth of the base M4. In the world of LLMs, this translates directly to more tokens per second. Thermal stability matters too. ❄️ Running AI models keeps your CPU/GPU at 100% for long periods. 👇

The Mac Studio's cooling system stays quiet and cool while the Mac Mini might throttle. Conclusion: With a €1,400 budget, a refurbished M1 Max Studio is the ultimate entry-level AI powerhouse. 🤖📈 #openclaw #LocalAI #TechTips #localllm #tech

It’s all about the ⚠️ Memory Bandwidth ⚠️ AI inference relies on moving data from memory to the GPU as fast as possible. Look at the gap: • M1 Max: 400 GB/s 🚀 • M2 Pro: 200 GB/s • M4 (Standard): 120 GB/ 👇

I dedicate this quote to all the makers, coders, entrepreneurs having a bad break or being stuck rn: "You can either cry in the storm or dance in the rain" - unknown Put on a beat, dance, and get back on it... LFG 🔥 #indiehackers #developers #entrepreneurs #buildinpublic

Just found out today how crap it is to get your apple calendar migrated to a google calendar ( so you can share that with both iOS and android users in your family). Who else is experiencing this? (contemplating a possible solution)

That moment where you see your twin daughter and son perform like madness in their closing year musical at primary school! Both had solos, great roles and awesome performance. #worldholdon #prouddad

A 🧵 on THE most important maker mindset thing I learned: Assume al assumptions are invalid until proven valuable. This will help you to focus on shipping asap and not trying to perfect things. #indiehacker #buildinpublic #entrepreneur #codinglife 👇

4/ only by actually putting your service or tool in peoples hands, you can validate that it works for them (sometimes even in other ways than you expect). So code hard, ship harder.

2/ If there’s one thing that has been proven, it’s that your product/service can only become viable if people see value in what you provide (even if it’s not perfect: if they see the current value and potential increased value, they’re in).

3/ Following to that: if something doesn’t seem to be valuable, either try to address other people, reframe the value, or get on to the next thing. It’s too easy to procrastinate and/or hide behind perfecting, so get your stuff out there asap.

@ericmigi.com just watchted your first pebble video. Was listening / looking whilst removing spammy emails. Nice to have a clean video without fluff, distracting sounds and transitions and just hear you talk about a cool gadget (had one back in the day, too... and looking 2 replace Fitbit :)

My wife asked me why I whisper in the house... I said I was afraid google was listening. She laughed. I laughed. Alexa laughed. Siri laughed. The Tesla laughed. #technology #ai #fun
