To help my kids preparing for an exam (and steer them away from asking Gemini for solutions), I’ve built an iPad Kids Tutor app. They can take a pic of a problem that they struggle with (initially for math but it works for any subject) and the harness then prepares a plan how to work through the issue using both claude and codex on the backend. It’s been fun to build and watch my kids start using it and actually enjoy it (ok, not always).

Great way of putting this. I certainly feel like this in smaller companies where each action (or inaction) has a direct consequence on the profitability.

The bigger question for me is how to use this efficiently as a team of engineers. Most workflow tools i've seen so far focus on making a single engineer get more out of a claude/codex subscription but not much how teams as a whole can become more productive.

Any ideas?

I think it’s a reference to Franz Kafka the author, not Kafka the Apache open-source project.

Have you written about your journey from homebrewer to pro somewhere? Would love to read about it! Especially about the initial sizing of the equipment ..

What’s the cost of a kWh in Maine?

The newer houses here in Japan tend to be all-electric (water, stove, AC) and the current prices (~¥40/kWh) make a lot wish for kerosene heaters of the past decades.

Not trying to defend them but I often see these sentences when Japanese is translated too verbatim. 「申し訳ございませんが…出来ません。」is a very formal way of saying this. Context then of course tells the receiver if they really can’t or just don’t want to ..

Amazing. I am at the stage of thinking/dreaming about a weekend-bakery .. but I am completely lost when trying to work out the economics of this.

How did you tackle this at the beginning? What were your demand/cost projections when you started out?
