I use vibe coding for trivial stuff that otherwise will take me lot of time to code myself or for languages I don’t know. I either feed the LLM the whole code module, or since the beginning of a vibe-coded module, I copy all the prompts and responses into a word file (easier to parse) and feed it back to the LLM if I need a bug fix or change. Most of the modules, however, I write myself.
My son (who is 7 and knows already basic maths) can tell you that if a giant production like Apple moves to the US will cost at least 90% or even more to produce. This automatically will make them 110+% more expensive, which will destroy the demand. And who will pay?! The biggest market - USA (~43% as of 2024) Interesting who are the finance advisors of the guy in the white house?!? Good luck!

As far as we know there’s nobody with an education in this administration who is making any sensible argument why these random choices make sense / will produce.
Everyone in the administration who takes questions are political appointees / politicians and they to a person eventually ignore any specific questions and then tell you how great Trump is. The press conferences are creepy at times.
The little info that leaks out from insiders indicates Trump doesn’t take advice from even his own staff often and they are blindsided by tweets frequently.
Peter Navarro, an unhinged lunatic with a singular obsession with tariffs, is the person who has Trump's exclusive attention when it comes to trade policy.
Navarro is to tariffs as Ron Paul was to "abolishing the Fed"
Time = Money, thus it should not be a surprise that with such proportionality between the two, one with his financial capabilities, could in theory buy time.
There's a season pass that can skip ahead by paying but is mostly cosmetics. Some gameplay gains can be pass-unlocked sooner but aren't game-usable due to being level-gated. (Hence no actual advantage compared to f2p.)
I did and still do quite some outsourcing (hiring freelancers) for my projects. Since I work for myself, I am also monetizing on my side projects. I also don’t have time, but this is part of the reason. Simply, there a lot of stuff I don’t know how to do, and an experienced freelancer does not only help, but can teach you a lot of stuff.
Until recently, with alcohol. Which is completely wrong, and fortunately, realized it on time. Now with less “f-s” given, more reading (fiction and fantasy) and more walking (preferably early in the morning when it is quiet).
Competing with a big player on the market just with pricing is a lost cause in my opinion.
The few startups solving the same problems that actually win against big players (by winning understand biting a fair portion of the total pie to survive) are doing so by solving this problem fundamentally differently. Your innovative approach must be really innovative to stand a chance against the big guys. This has to be something completely different to stand a chance.
Offering lower price will not be sustainable for you in the long run I think. This will definitely hold you back on the growth side. Not to mention what the customer might think - lower price = lower quality. Besides a big player has a lot of resources! They can squeeze you out of the market easily with your lower price.
I am an unsuccessful former founder :) . But I made some similar mistakes. In my opinion, rocket-marketing and completely innovative product are the two musts for the successful groundwork of any startup.
