A place for developers to talk about building on Farcaster.

feeling so blocked in my capacity to create reliable software systems. feels like i hit a ceiling where i can't see what's beyond of what i know, and any attempt to create a system that can actually be reliable and work is exhausting and so scary

self taught devs: how do you jump through this hoop if you are not part of a team?

Slow down. Simplify it. Break it down into small parts until you can understand each one. No hurry no pause.

BUT I WANT TO RUN

that's probably the core problem tbh. wanting to run when you have not walked yet. and ai triggers you to think you know more than what you actually know

I don’t remember the tweet I found this cursor guide in but damn it has been a game changer for me

This has been really helpful for me https://farcaster.xyz/mattlee/0xf83cb193

i want to put all the code that i have ever written into a plastic bag and sent it to the 8th circle of hell and start all over again

removing the old help with a fresh start but will not make it different if the new start is not different

I have no idea if we can get simplicity nowadays, even the more simple thing would end increasing in size and complexity

i have done it some times. like literally delete everything in my computer and say "time to start fresh"

but somehow complexity makes its way through once again. and now with these LLMs that spit code as if they were air its even harder to manage looool

yea man and also yesterday i had an argument with my partner that sucked. but we'll survive. thank you 🫶🏼

Hahaa when I feel like that it's usually best to step back, touch some grass, sleep on it. I'm getting a sense you may have entered an emotionally difficult place to solve problems well.
