I've been following Pieter for a very long time and he's absolutely an inspiration. Also, the thread with the planes has been super fun to read.

I still struggle to prioritize building software in my spare time, but it's something that is in my radar in my life! 🙌

I just can't find a good excuse not to do it. The upsides are huge! Not to speak about the learning opportunities, both startup experience and coding-wise.

I know, some things I'll have to put on hold, but I feel I have to try this.

Loved this edition! Did Levels share his grok prompt? Sorry if I missed that 😅

Thanks Janahan! I haven't seen the prompt but Rodrigo already made a website listing AI games and people started to make them like crazy https://x.com/rrmdp/status/1895169783747801435 😄

I'm definitely really hyped about that, Akos. I'll be glad if we form some kind of accountability group. I still fail to do some coding for an app outside my regular job, writing, and social media.

I even had this aspirational goal for the last year but I didn't manage to execute. With the rise of AI, I think it becomes much easier.

Very inspiring stuff. Trying out something is the best way to see if it works rather than thinking about it for a long time. AI makes the whole process faster if someone has a positive mindset.

Also, thanks for the mention, Akos!

So glad to come across this! I'm on a fast-paced journey of building and launching—faster than I ever imagined.

My first AI experiment, an image finder app, took 3 weeks. Then I built a note generator that turns long posts into 18 short notes for Substack—it even got paid users! That one took 2 weeks. Just launched my third and learned so much about business models.

Can’t believe this all happened in 2025! Your insights resonate deeply, and I’m excited to dive into the resources on other indie hackers.
