... very expensive way of functioning at work, especially when unpaid travel is a waste of time and money. So I am pretty lucky to be remote because I can dedicate time to work instead of travelling and am more focused. Comment from Ramesh Kumar Ramachandran(@rameshkumar_astravue): Interesting topic. Is this being piloted across all industries or just a few verticals? I believe a 5 8 schedule is a good balance. Before running my own startup, I managed support ... ... delivery teams, where I focused

... complementary tools, I d reach out and invite them to be notified about our launch. There's a LOT of cool products on here, we're already talking about integrations with some teams from our launch week cohort. Focus on relationships, not just promotion.

My thinking is the more technically adept would work on the core-focus while vibecoders can assist with other tasks that shouldn't be the main devs focus

... generate the entire function for me. Often, it was correct or at least a decent starting point. I wasn t typing those lines; I was just guiding the AI with hints and prompts. Essentially, I was coding by vibe focusing on the high-level idea and trusting the AI to fill in the blanks. By early 2023, many of us had adopted this habit. We would describe what we wanted in natural language, get AI-generated code, and then tweak ... ... Tackle one function or feature at a time. This is basically the age-old principle of modular design divide and conquer applied to prompting. As one guide put it, divide large tasks into smaller, manageable components so you can focus

... well does it actually work? Comment from Rajiv Ayyangar(@rajiv_ayyangar): @jonayed_tanjim  I'm not close enough to Webhooks to understand if this is a valuable problem to solve. But if this is a common build vs buy decision, my general feeling is that all of these decisions for Dev/Infra will move towards buy. Do you have customers yet?

From my experience in vibe coding I knew that I had to start simple and focused

... been thinking about how a lot of learning and productivity tools assume the user is already well, focused. But what about the rest of us? The ones who start with good intentions but end up with 12 tabs, brain fog, missed timestamps, and a memory like a sieve? I wasn t a lazy student. I just had a chaotic brain that didn t respond well to daily planners or review cycles. My team isn't building a study ...

... including tiny bugs, last-minute polish, writing, promo stuff, etc. But I know I can t (and probably shouldn t) do it all. If you ve been through this before, I d love to hear: What did you actually focus on in your last few days before launch? What do you wish you had done earlier?

... something to share with others. It also helps them avoid being consumed by work 24/7 (for some 27/9). This perspective is more common among entrepreneurs in their 40s. Others view kids as a distraction something that prevents them from focusing fully on their work because kids demand constant attention. This mindset tends to be more common among people in their 20s/early 30s. I ve also noticed that those who were extremely focused

... work. What worked brilliantly for a two-person team of jacks-of-all-trades-and-masters-of-none didn t scale. Now that we have specialists designers who like to deeply think through user flows, and engineers focused on clean architecture the quality of what we re shipping has leveled up dramatically. Our product no longer feels like a huge pile of features. But that also means our old ways of working don t work anymore ... ... better to get something in the hands of customers quickly and start learning. We cut corners with the mindset of making as many intermediate deployments to production throughout the project as we possibly can. That keeps the scope focused

... product passionates, I'm curious to hear your thoughts - we all have things we noticed we could have done differently after our first launch that could have helped us make it better.

... feature, sanity-check the idea, then document it in plain language to Cursor (my coding sidekick AI). Tiny, testable bits. Cursor produces the first draft, I review and roll out, then gather real-user feedback before returning. Tricks of focus. Short sprints, breathing exercises, and a tough "one feature at a time" policy keep me on track. Why it matters Employing ADHD is having attention run out of steam quickly and big tasks being overwhelming. Vibecoding enables me to avoid ...

... sometimes just takes time Comment from Martin Rue(@martin_rue): @busmark_w_nika  Yes, a balance is definitely important. I sometimes run into conflict when I specifically want to be out of balance because there's some big focus, issue, opportunity, but generally I should get better at this.

... This admiration inspired me to build https://catapulta.lat . What is Catapulta? It is a (WIP) launch and discovery platform designed specifically for the new wave of digital innovation in Latin America. I am not looking to be a simple alternative to Product Hunt, but rather to serve as a pre-launch or a complementary space. I believe creators and startups in LatAm face unique challenges in gaining visibility, crucial feedback, and building a solid network within our diverse region.

... Designing a product is one thing. Getting people to actually use it is another. We ve focused on simplifying the setup so much that businesses can just scan a QR or paste a script and their assistant is live and working. No UI walkthroughs. No complicated configuration. Just logic that adapts based on what the user writes. Still improving, but so far less effort = more adoption. Would love to hear how others balance power vs
