Cool trick to build your own #AI pipelines:

Some AI images literally ship the recipe in the file 😅

Run:

"exiftool image.png"

...and check the Prompt field.

Doesn't work on all, but when it does… it's awesome

Surprising how often it works

Just learned that VeraCrypt has never been defeated by law enforcement in any documented case

An open source disk #encryption tool with a 100% success rate against government cryptographic breaks

Time to hide that spicy folder, lol

🚨 Kernel panic nuked one of my Ubuntu AI servers on a Sunday morning

bsky.app/profile/jorg...

Lost my prime build time ☕️

These 2 commands helped me restore an identical setup

1. Backup your APT config (repos, keys, prefs) 👇1/3

F*ck... I just realized I paid R2 $31 last month to cache API responses 🤦‍♂️

Cache API does this for free.

Same speed, easier setup

Took me 5 min to migrate.

Monthly bill = $0 now

The code swap 👇 (1/4)

Imo, GitHub Actions as cron jobs might be the most underrated dev hack

Why pay for cron services when GitHub Actions does it better?

✅ Free / cheap
✅ Scales
✅ Version control with git
✅ Huge marketplace of plugins

Only catch: shortest interval is 1 min 👇 1/4

#Supabase backups are easy to forget, until you need them 😅

I don't have the built in ones in the free plan, so I set up Google Drive backups instead

This is what I like to do 👇(1/5)

I discovered today an open source CLI that reaaally speeds up #ClaudeCode setup

npx claude-code-templates

highly recommend it. it auto detects your project type, and configures everything, including templates

These are some of the things I like👇1/4

A few people have asked me recently:

"How do you keep Node.js/Python/Bun apps running 24/7 in production without crashes or downtime?"

I use a super simple tool to run prod ready API with:
✅ Auto restarts
✅ Load balancing
✅ Zero-downtime deploys

Takes 1 command 👇

What's the best way to animate #svg fast? 🏎️💨

Been experimenting with #lottie Files Creator to build a pipeline that turns my static diagrams into animated infographics ⚡

The goal: Transform boring tech visuals into scroll-stopping animations

With Anthropic's new rate limits, I have been trying to save tokens

I donno if you knew, but #ClaudeCLI has 2 underrated context commands:

1. `/clear` 🧹 Reset context entirely
2. `/compact` 📦 Compress your context without losing key info

Use them wisely 👇

🚀 Where do you host your Nextjs apps?

I really like using Cloudflare Workers + OpenNext as my primary, and Vercel as a backup

I highly recommend trying both and compare:

#WebPerformance and Lighthouse scores
💰 Costs
🧩 Analytics, cache, etc

This is how it works 👇

I just found out about ccflare and it really improved my Claude Code workflow

I can't recommend it enough

🚫 No more rate limit headaches
🔍 Clear token tracking
🎨 Better subagent management

A quick trick I use to help LLMs understand new libraries or frameworks (e.g shadcn/ui) and build faster:

Replace "hub" with "ingest" in any GitHub URL to get an LLM friendly text digest of the full codebase👇

I love building my own custom browser extensions to:
🔓 Scrape gated data
🤖 Auto clicks
🧠 Add AI tools into my browser

Tbh, building a good extension is a pain in the ass

Until I found WXT! I swear this is not an ad

I freaking love this framework. This is why 🧵

In an era of sh*tty vibe coded apps and rushed MVPs (looking at you, Tea app... cough cough)

I like to know what's entering/leaving my laptop

I monitor all network traffic on my laptop

Hey, what window manager do you use when building stuff?

I like Rectangle (Mac only, sadly)

✅ Keyboard shortcuts
✅ Snap edge zones + custom layouts
✅ Clean, open source, and free

Way better than macOS's default. Here's why 👇

How do you set up your cloud servers? 🤔

Not sure if you heard of Terraform's "remote-exec"

...but it deploys and configures your servers in one shot across almost any provider (DO, AWS, Hetzner...)

This is the setup I like to use 👇

What do you use to protect your apps? 🛡️
Still using basic auth like it's 1995? 🤪

I'm a huge fan of Cloudflare Zero Trust

✅ Google/GitHub login
✅ No more f*cking htpasswd
✅ Access logs
✅ FREE

Stop posting:

"here's my app localhost:3000" ❌

...on bsky posts, lol. use ngrok instead 😜

But seriously...

you should use ngrok (it's free!) for these 🔥 use cases you probably haven't tried 👇

🔥 Want to add that viral “text behind image” effect to your app?

Takes 2 min to add to your app 🎨

npm install text-behind-image

✅ Free & open source
✅ Zero GPU / AI costs
✅ Works in any js app

These are the technical details 🧵👇

If you are using shadcn/ui you should checkout Aceternity UI components

It's a free component library built on top of shadcn
but with beautiful, animated effects you'd usually spend hours building

I use it in almost everything I ship 👇

One of the most impactful changes I made:

✅ A/B testing important features

It saved me from shipping stuff that I thought it was cool but didn't move the needle

I use @growthbook.io (open source, free)

Do you A/B test your features? Or you ship and hope?

I donno if y'all know this, but Cloudflare can instantly optimize your images for SEO & Core Web Vitals...

JUST by tweaking the URL

✅ Right format/size
✅ Free or super cheap
✅ 2-minute setup

No more excuses for bad SEO.
