Why does everyone tell me that I'm not a vibe-coder? I get the logic that the system I created creates clean and quick. But I do it by vibing 🤣 Vibe-coder 2.0 better? I actually prefer Digital Sorcerer 😏😏

Self-mastery is the biggest gift you can give yourself. March 2023: -1st, my mother passed away -5th, my daughter was born across the world in the Philippines via C-section -19th, mother-in-law abandoned them and all I could do was watch it happen on a screen. -29th, I finally landed in the Philippines. Without self-mastery, I feel like I could've stumbled during that time.

Digital Sorcery: 001 | AI Guide Scroll Series ALWAYS review what you created before deploying. Failing this step is one of the biggest reasons that "AI slop" happens. butlerbuilds.dev/articles/di… Get the newsletter: butlerbuilds.dev/newsletter

Hitting zen mode can get your creative side to do a 19 hour shift and absolutely love every minute of it. If you get into that mode at 7 hours, then stopping at 8, that's what kills the creative side.

What could've taken one day, now takes two weeks. Pay for phases, milestones, deliverables, not hours. You'll kill production and efficiency if you do.

If a developer or any creative gets paid hourly, does it kill creativity? It feels like being punished for being efficient. As a creative, would you work hourly?

A company has a budget of $10k for brand assets. They gave a month for them to complete the project. The creative gets it done in one week EXACTLY how the client wants it. Should they get paid more or less?

AI DEVELOPERS/VIBE CODERS Don't use: - Claude - Codex - Gemini DO use: Claude (main architecture), Codex (UI UX design and code review), AND Antigravity (research). It doesn't have to be these specific models or same jobs, they're just my personal preference.

That's just the LLM stack. Next you have to understand and create the jobs in accordance with what you're building. I'm the project manager, Claude is the architect, chatgpt is the designer, and Antigravity makes sure we have the correct permits.

Tip on self-mastery: Everything is okay, And it always will be. Some days may be rough, But your soul is everlasting. Every trial is a challenge, To strengthen your spirit. Every harsh comment heard,… butlerbuilds.dev/articles/re…

I haven't been this entranced in a read for a long time. As AI would say "This is spot on, you really hit the nail on the head with this one."

Alberino says the zodiac's four fixed signs mark the corners of the sky. Lion, bull, eagle, and man. Cross one corner and an age ends. Fire, water, or something far colder.

A note on self-mastery: Everything is okay, and it always will be. Some days may be rough... but your soul... is everlasting. Every trial is a challenge, given to strengthen your spirit. Every harsh comment heard, you were meant to hear it. Work with your inner self, you were never meant to fear it. EXPERIENCING yourself... is the only way to clear it.

Annoying question #683: "Why doesn't Claude do image generation yet?" I feel like people who genuinely wonder about this eat burgers with a fork.

My prediction is that only three types of software engineers will make it. 1. The genius: this one is the one who creates and reviews the codes on what AI can do. Will ALWAYS be needed. 2. Connections: bosses son, daughter, nephew, etc. Friend hire. Value hire because they want connections with who they hired. 3. Retro coding/hobby influencers on YouTube: content teaching people the old ways of coding.
saas is dead coding is dead startups are dead blogging is dead what are we supposed to do?

I was recently asked to make a resumé. So as a Digital Mage, I did what and AI developer would. Make a PWA lol. It's a living resume that's automatically added to and updated with my public work. The Method page is linked here and will be constantly updated as my workflow tightens. Recent changes not deployed: 1. 5 stress test agents run before first live deploy. 2. Bi-weekly automated runs of the designated test agents. resume.butlerbuilds.dev/meth…

Build In Public: Article Page Had a little fun building my article page today. Got the feel to match my new take on AI/Self-mastery. Digital Sorcery is the magic we waited for. Soon, more people will create their own ecosystems. My job is to make those ecosystems compatible.
