Just Fucking Build Something.

“We built tools to build faster. Now we waste all our time choosing which fucking tools to use.”

— Said by me when I was smart enough to see the trap, but not wise enough to fucking avoid it

The Fucking Reality.

Just grab any stack. No one gives a shit.

Fucking pick one and move on.

Build it before you overthink. Before you lose momentum.

Something shipped beats perfect plans.

You Are the Fucking Problem.

Not the framework. Not the language. Not the database.

You.

Sitting there. Debating. Planning. Refactoring code that has zero users.

Arguing about best practices with people who ship nothing.

You're not building. You're whining about the wrong things.

Analysis Paralysis is a Fucking Choice.

React or Vue? Python or JavaScript? Microservices or your mental health?
Framework choice or your life choices?

Debates rage over Tailwind vs "real" CSS. Arguing about the style of styling.
Utter obsession with how it looks IN THE FUCKING EDITOR, NOT THE BROWSER!

Oh, and fights over editor fonts and themes. Monospace? Dark mode or light?
Oh my fucking God.
What's next? Fighting over which music to play while waiting for your AI to finish doing the work you used to do yourself?
Curating the perfect playlist so you can avoid the crushing reality that you did nothing again today.

Listen, you dipshit.

It's all fucking distraction. All avoidance. All procrastination cosplaying as productivity.

The wrong choice that ships beats the right choice rotting in your head.

Your Diagrams Are Just Architecture Porn.

You're sitting there, stroking your ego over an Excalidraw canvas, designing for "infinite scale." Scale what? Your fucking ego? You have zero users.

While you're fighting configuration files and debugging a Terraform script for a "Coming Soon" page, some guy with a single PHP file and a shitty shared host just, reached some prettier levels of enlightenment and shipped, learned, and doubled their traffic.

They're moving. You're still configuring your linter. Who's the fucking genius now?

Distributed Systems? Distributed Fucking Delusions.

You're not launching a Space Shuttle. You're just over-complicating a CRUD app to avoid the terrifying reality of actually launching it.

You're obsessing over "High Availability" for a site that gets three visitors a month, and two of them are your own refresh button.
High availability for what? Your own loneliness?

You've designed a masterpiece of pure friction. A system so "sophisticated" it's barely deployable.
First comes a Kafka cluster, then a ridiculous number of servers, most of them running services to babysit each other like self-aware toddlers, and manage their own fucking requests and communications like a fucking bureaucracy.
And after all that, you still need to wait for a very specific lunar alignment just to run npm start.

What Actually Fucking Matters.

Wikipedia runs on PHP. Billions of page views a month. PHP.

Reddit was built with Python when everyone said it was too slow.

Craigslist looks like shit and prints $700 million a year.

They all shipped. That's the only thing that mattered.

The tool is not the thing. Your sophisticated opinions are not the thing.
The thing is the fucking thing.

The Fucking Strategy.

Pick any stack. It doesn't really matter. Just pick one and move on.

Build it ugly. Build it broken. Build it embarrassing. Just build it real.

Ship it. Put it online. Make it touchable by actual humans.

Now it exists. You've done more than 90% of people still debating tools.

You Want Quality? Then Fucking Ship First.

Yeah, quality matters. Of course it fucking matters.

But you know what matters more? Momentum.

Ship the ugly version.
Watch someone actually use it. Get the dopamine hit. And use that fuel to make it better.

The best product you'll ever build starts as the worst thing you'll ever ship.

The Fucking Irony.

I built a website about building instead of building the thing I'm supposed to be building. This is procrastination cosplaying as productivity.

But here's the thing: I still shipped it. Even if it's stupid. Even if it's just me yelling into the void.

It exists. You're reading it. That's infinitely more than most "ideas" ever become.

In some sense, I wrote this for myself as much as for you.

A bookmark for when I'm drowning in some analysis paralysis bullshit. Maybe it helps you too. Maybe it doesn't. Either way, it exists now.

Alright, That's Enough.

You know what you need to do. I know what I need to do. We all know.

Stop planning. Stop debating tools with people who aren't shipping.

Pick something. Build it ugly. Ship it broken.

Let real people use it or ignore it. Both are feedback. Both are progress.

The only difference between you and someone shipping?

They stopped giving a fuck about looking stupid.

Now go, and Just Fucking Build Something.
