I'm a developer. And as a developer, I probably have a huge disadvantage: I see every product with an overly critical, perfectionist mindset. Meanwhile, no-code and AI tools are making it easier than ever to build software without technical skills. But here's the paradox: this shift favors non-technical makers over developers. Why? Because they don t care (or even think) about: that slow query that might crash under load; that pixel-perfect UI; that memory-hungry process; tha non-DRY code; that perfect payment integration; Etc... I know what you're thinking: "Dude, just build an MVP and launch fast." But that's not my point. Even if I try to move fast, as a developer, it's hard to unsee the flaws. So here's my real question: Are we in an era where people with fewer technical skills are actually at an advantage? To me, it definitely feels like an advantage for non-technical makers.
Hey everyone, I ve been playing around with different ways to keep my ideas, research, and drafts in check, but it still feels like I m drowning in research. :P
I ve tried traditional note-taking apps, but they re not flexible. And mind maps? They start out fine but turn into a mess as it gets complex with more data.
