The sculpture is already complete within the marble block, before I start my work. It is already there, I just have to chisel away the superfluous material.

I do most of my work these days just in my notes - writing self reflecting questions, planning, using the a lot question "if this will go wrong - what will be the reason?" (inverting the problem) Once the notes are written, I manually extract a general product spec from it again in notes. Then I take the product spec to the LLM and it just implementes, quite quickly all the things that it might have taken me a week+ to think about. Something that helps with planning is having the llm build mockup pages - just so that it will be easier for me to imagine and think how the solution might look like and what imporatnt, underlying factors or details i might have missed

Totally spot on. It sometimes feels normal that we can talk to a computer and it responds intelligently, but just 3 years ago that was fantasy.

Num. 2 especially relatable. A good mark of high quality professional is if he presents his plan before execution to hear feedback and comments - even if they are totally against his original idea, and he can then take this feedback and incorporate effectively in a re-design.

You're right. But, nowadays these terms get more context meaning. For example - a user is someone who platforms sell their data to customers. Or a user is someone gullible you trick into making decisions that are good for the business. The literal term of someone who is using your system/product has evolved.

For me the term users sometimes sounds similar to traffic. I prefer customers - that you serve with your product.

1000 true fans and Seth Godin's approach to marketing - that you should focus on the smallest group of people in your market and amaze them

These concepts helped me a lot with marketing to consumers and SMBs

Also, follow @mtlynch's content - even though he says he's not an expert, I feel that atleast regarding marketing to devs and builders - he is one of the best out there
