One hard thing about solo dev with ai is that ai thinks everything you suggest is a great idea, especially from a product perspective and you get no critical feedback and its easy to get lost in the sauce.

this has not been the case for me using o3. at least on a technical level it has ignored requests or suggested alternatives a handful of times

yea I mostly mean from a product level, I can be like lets create a Profile page... lets add all these features to the profile page and then 48 hours be like, hmm profile page is a bad idea lets delete it and then realizing if I had another collaborator they probably would have told me it was dumb in the first place.

yea maybe idea guy is the only edge for us humans
