As the founder of destinfo.com which provides free travel guides to any destination in the world, I'm interested to know how people will change their behaviors when planning a trip after COVID-19. PS. you can check Destinfo here: https://www.producthunt.com/post...
Something that changed how our team works: every time Claude messes something up, we write it into a skill file so it doesn't happen again. Over time it got way better at our stuff than any prompt ever did. Same with art, once we built skills for our drawings and animations the results got clean and consistent.
Curious how others handle this. Do you keep notes or rules for your AI tools, or just re-prompt every time? And what's the most useful rule you've written?
Every developer I talk to has the same story. The idea is clear, the stack is decided, but before anything real gets built there's 3 hours of AWS configs, Dockerfiles, environment variables, and CI pipelines that have nothing to do with the actual product.
AI coding tools made writing code faster. Nobody has solved what comes after.
Maybe it is only me, but I see certain categories of online products that seem to be like "copy-paste" and the market is overcrowded by them. (and they repeats in the PH charts too often as well)
They are especially these:
AI writing tools
social media apps (I do not think that something breath-taking can be developed there)
Every time a new client asks us to patch an issue on an unfamiliar web app I struggle with whether to demand a paid diagnostic hour first or just take a wild guess at the pricing.
Clients hate paying twice but jumping straight into a fixed price quote without auditing the codebase is a fast track to working for free.
What pricing model works best for you when stepping into a codebase built by someone else?
It's amazing how many support tickets disappear the moment you stop treating onboarding confusion as a documentation problem and treat it as a UI copywriting bug.
After logging our most frequent user complaints last month we found that six different people were asking the exact same question in different ways simply because our button description didn't say what action it triggered. One clear sentence on the screen saved us hours of answering the same emails every week.
What tiny text tweak had the biggest impact on your app's support load?
A lot of large companies (not just tech giants) are laying off employees at scale because AI can already do parts of their work faster, in higher volume, and at a comparable level of quality, sometimes even better.
At the same time, companies are starting to openly admit something important: AI is expensive.
