What's that, you say? A new event series just dropped for my AI workshops biz, Build First Academy Free "AI Power Hours" every week in August! Join to feel the vibes and build something fun in 60 minutes flat. I've also got a few spots left for my "Build an Internal Tool" workshop on August 21. See: https://buildfirst.ai/events

it's incredible how far into a build you can get before you realize that here Replit has been thinking we're still living in the year 2024 all along...

Lately, I’ve been experimenting with a simple idea: What if you gave yourself just one hour to build something real with AI and no-code tools? I call it the AI Power Hour, and it’s become my favorite way to break through inertia and make fast, meaningful progress. Check out my process (and the tools I use) here! https://hardmodefirst.xyz/the-ai-power-hour

TFW you ask the AI to write onboarding docs to train your intern to learn how to collect data so that another AI can interpret it.... πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’« πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’« πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«

In retrospect I should have been able to predict that inviting my mom to β€œhelp” me solo parent my two kids would just mean I’m parenting three kids…

I built an app about learning. Then I had to learn how to build apps. A few reflections on 2025 so far (and how you can learn and build alongside me for AI Summer School with Build First Academy) https://hardmodefirst.xyz/i-built-an-app-about-learning-then-i-had-to-learn-how-to-build-apps

The nice thing about gardening is that you can be having a pretty terrible day or a pretty terrible week but then go outside and notice that a longtime holdout flower has finally bloomed for the first time Meet my rooftop honeysuckle

I’m excited to introduce Build First Academy, a new AI workshop and training business designed to help anyone learn how to build with AI. This year, I've learned what it takes to get something going from the ground up (even with 0 programming skills!) and now I'm helping others do the same! Whether you're a team looking to prototype real apps in 3 hours or an individual curious about launching a business with AI tools, Build First is here to help. This summer, we’re offering: - Corporate workshops (for up to 20 people): Build real apps, fast - AI Summer School: A 5-day bootcamp to go from idea to AI-powered business - Half-day immersions (Build a Game, Build an Internal Tool, or Build a Business) in 3-4 hours Can't wait to see what you all decide to BUILD FIRST. Learn more at https://buildfirst.ai
