faust

I am getting to that stage in a project where I am very excited to finish it and am in danger of rushing things along and ruining it.

Reminding myself, patience is key

I’ve been feeling this way

For a month, maybe two

creating and destroying; flying cars, roc.camera, july.rocks

I feel this way, but mixed in with visions of Wile E Coyote, just setting his plan in motion, hovering mid-air, looking down and holding a "yikes" sign.

this is a reasonable question

in the context of building roc camera for /faust i'd say maybe where i am is more, we keep thinking we're done (cool we have production level hardware!) but we need to manufacture it. then it's cool we're almost done! we have manufacturable hardware, that is now customized and setup to build 100s of these devices - now we actually have to do it etc. it's harder to recall hw perhaps, versus OTA software update that we can make

or you're right, maybe it's better to just iterate - and we will with the software (sw isn't done, but ota is)

starting to wonder if it’s becoming more reasonable to iterate further until satisfied personally - bc it all can change so quickly

i dabble with ai using open identity data from crypto https://alexpaden.tech

Yeah and I don’t mean to relate the constraints or anything— in my case I’m not even sure why I was doing it like the results would have been better but that next thing to make it a bit better never stopped coming and so I just kept doing it over and over without sharing anything which ultimately became a huge weight on my shoulders and even now you’d probably be like I have no idea what shoni is doing but it’s actually pretty badass ai for farcaster in the making… anyway long story short it slowed me down more than it sped me up like I thought it would

I assume you’re shipping software- hardware is different because you can’t change all it over and over

I’ve been feeling the opposite lately. but it was out of some perfectionist desire rather than a product requirement

It takes extreme awareness to notice this and I personally feel once I get a whiff of this feeling, I take a break and touch ass I mean grass
