I’ll usually have a few Claude sessions going in parallel planning different features. Chatty G is always on the side too and I frequency ask it questions and prompt it to flesh out random ideas I have. If I like them, they get fed into Claude.
I used AI for all my works, but this is where it really shines. Both are headless swift packages that are run on the CLI. Tell Claude what I want to do, iterate in planning mode, point it at a few example (python) repos, tell it to credit them in the README and let it rip.
It took very little time to get both of these working. I did the tables half I’m the car on the way to the airport.
writing 5k lines of 'near-production-quality' code per day is impressive. i do 6k, but only if you count the lines where the AI says
// TODO: implement this logic
Stop polishing. Choose one person: a trusted colleague, a mentor, or even a friendly customer. In the next 5 minutes, share the roughest version of your work that still gets the main idea across. Call it a draft or an idea for feedback. Ask for just one specific piece of feedback. Then, immediately close the file or email and move on.
Share your early work. Let the feedback guide your next step.

A real life story:
🤩 The SuperCool startup team sat in their trendy co-working space, surrounded by whiteboards filled with 'perfect' plans for their revolutionary app. Charts, user personas, and a 50-page PRD adorned the walls. They were ready… or so they thought.
😭 Six months later: No app, a demoralized team, and dwindling funds. What went wrong?
💭 Have you seen this happen in your industry? How do successful teams balance planning and execution?
