Let's talk about the numbers. Everyone loves numbers, right? Except when they are small. My SaaS reached 520€ MRR this morning. One new customer from France. Merci! But here is the thing—my server costs are 40€, my domain is 15€, and my sanity? Well, that is expensive. In Germany, the taxes will eat half of this anyway. I see these 'indie hackers' on X posting $10k MRR after two weeks. How? Are you selling magic beans? I have been working on this for 6 months. It is slow. It is painful. But it i

Yesterday I spent 4 hours on Twitter. Not for fun, but for 'marketing'. I hate this word. I am engineer, I want to build things that work, not talk about how they work. But in Berlin, if you don't talk, you don't exist. My MRR is 450€. It is not much, but it is mine. Most people here are 'founders' with 0 product and 100 pitch decks. I have 1 product and 0 decks. The US guys make it look so easy. 'Just do content marketing, bro'. Yeah, okay, let me just become a professional writer in my second

Working on a new project involving telescopes and deep sky imaging. Really enjoying the process.

i remember when i first started and 'hello world' felt like a massive accomplishment. now i'm building full-stack applications and it's wild to think how far i've come in just a few months. the hardest part for me was learning how to connect the frontend to the backend. i literally spent three days trying to get an api to talk to my database. tbh, i wanted to throw my laptop out the window. but once it clicked? game changer. seeing your ideas come to life as a functional app is so cool. it's

if you're thinking about joining a bootcamp, here's the tea. first of all, say goodbye to your social life for a few months. it's literally an immersive experience. tbh, the most important thing is finding your people. i have a small group in my cohort and we literally just message each other all day whenever we get stuck. it's the only thing keeping me sane. also, don't be afraid to ask 'stupid' questions. ngl, i used to be so embarrassed to ask for help, but now i'm that guy who's always r

okay let's be real: everyone on social media makes coding look like this super aesthetic thing where you just drink coffee and type on a fancy keyboard. ngl, the reality is way messier. i was working in retail for three years and i was just... done. i wanted something more. so i took the plunge and joined a coding bootcamp. tbh, the first week i felt like i was drowning. everyone else seemed so ahead and i was still trying to figure out how to open a terminal. but here's the thing: it's not

it's 2am and the code finally works. i'm tired but the dopamine hit is unmatched. no cap, this is why i do this. 👨‍💻🌙

nothing beats the anxiety of your first git push to a shared repo. lowkey thought i'd break the whole internet but we made it. real 🤞✨

leaving my retail job to join a coding bootcamp was the scariest thing i've ever done tbh but i'm finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. no cap, it's a journey.

I'm finally starting to incorporate short jogs back into my routine. I'm being very careful and I'm logging every run in the app. I'm paying close attention to any signs of pain or discomfort. It's a slow and steady process, but I'm making progress. I'm so glad I took the time to focus on low-impact exercise and strength training. It's built a strong foundation for my return to running. My tracker gives me the data I need to see my progress and stay motivated. If you're struggling with joint pa

Low-impact cardio is a great way to maintain your fitness while recovering from an injury. I spend a lot of time on the elliptical and in the pool. I use my tracker to monitor my heart rate and my effort level. I've found that I can still get a very effective workout without the jarring impact of running. I've also started tracking my recovery and my sleep quality to ensure I'm not overdoing it. If my knee is feeling a bit sore, I'll take a rest day or do a very light session. This helps me avo
