| 2026-05-22 05:35:59 +0000 | <sm> | but I'm burned out on packing right now.. so I'll take my own advice |

| 2026-05-22 05:19:14 +0000 | <sm> | but you mentioned hiring.. so I don't understand the situation really |
| 2026-05-22 05:18:20 +0000 | <sm> | fifth, get a collaborator |
| 2026-05-22 05:17:34 +0000 | takuan | (~takuan@d8D86B9E9.access.telenet.be) |
| 2026-05-22 05:15:17 +0000 | <sm> | fourth, study effective AI techniques.. fifth... boy I'm full of advice 😅 |
| 2026-05-22 05:14:23 +0000 | <sm> | second, to have a look at those writings for inspiration. Third, to reduce scope till you're completing things more easily. |
| 2026-05-22 05:12:13 +0000 | <sm> | if you're burned out, especially as a hobbyist, my advice is take a break from it. Or at minimum, look for a different approach to make it interesting again |
| 2026-05-22 05:10:15 +0000 | <Inst> | so, i guess your advice is to get the basic prototype up, i.e, set up a MP instead of an MVP |
| 2026-05-22 05:09:10 +0000 | <Inst> | i found a scalan among the members, but we don't talk much |

| 2026-05-22 05:08:56 +0000 | <Inst> | yeah, i'm handling the human part of the gaming guild |
| 2026-05-22 05:08:46 +0000 | <sm> | it sounds like you are burned out on this project/type of project. That's dangerous, you may need do something else or nothing for a while |
| 2026-05-22 05:08:31 +0000 | <sm> | oops, erased chat log... |
| 2026-05-22 05:06:40 +0000 | <Inst> | but somehow i'm still getting nausea at the code i'm writing |
| 2026-05-22 05:06:40 +0000 | <sm> | that's a good question, in my experience yes they kind of did. |
| 2026-05-22 05:06:32 +0000 | <Inst> | it's weird, i'm a very iconoclastic haskeller who loves all the diseased things you're not supposed to do |
| 2026-05-22 05:06:07 +0000 | <sm> | yes sometimes a little thinking ahead is wise, but often not |
| 2026-05-22 05:06:00 +0000 | <Inst> | did the smalltalkers beat lispers on prototype speed? |
| 2026-05-22 05:05:35 +0000 | <sm> | you should read some of the good old writings of smalltalkers and extreme programmers, eg on the WikiWikiWeb. They're all about this. Read about YAGNI there. |
| 2026-05-22 05:04:58 +0000 | <sm> | mindset |
| 2026-05-22 05:04:57 +0000 | <Inst> | that is what i worry about minimal scope, if you do minimal scope, you're not future proofing, and you're giving yourself a harder problem of retrofitting features in |
| 2026-05-22 05:04:53 +0000 | <sm> | that's a good mindsent |
| 2026-05-22 05:04:24 +0000 | <Inst> | I refactored my core authn authz 3 times ;_; |
| 2026-05-22 05:04:15 +0000 | <Inst> | and I tested it |
| 2026-05-22 05:04:12 +0000 | <Inst> | the problem is, I have a mindset of prototype then iterate |
| 2026-05-22 05:04:04 +0000 | <Inst> | hmmmm |
| 2026-05-22 05:03:30 +0000 | <sm> | I used to work with the founder of Heroku, a very good programmer, and he was a master at dynamically downsizing his goal in real time until it became easy |
