Tried Nvidia's new Nemotron and holy shit.. I've never seen a LLM number list every letter of "strawberry" like that... while ChatGPT-4o, Claude Sonnet and Llama3.1 all fumbled #indiejourney

Did some keyword research for Profile Photo Editor - https://jasonleow.com/profilephotoeditor. Looks like "linkedin profile picture" might be best bet.. "pfp" is great but too broad and gamer-related..? 🤔 #indiejourney #profilephotoeditor
Got more feedback - Added input fields for arc and text color. Also made default preview image grayed out to signal it's a placeholder (while I figure out how tf to edit it on page load) #indiejourney #profilephotoeditor
F it, posted Profile Photo Editor on Hacker News - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41702990 Hope I don't go viral 🙈🙈 #indiejourney #profilephotoeditor

FINALLY! Made the canvas work. First time using a combo of Llama 3.1, Claude Sonnet 3.5 and ChatGPT, but the trickiest parts were mostly solved by Llama 3.1. Looks like Claude is better for coding with more conventions, not more uncommon stuff like canvas, while I'm pleasantly surprised Llama 3.1 can deliver on it! Now, what should I call this new project... #indiejourney
Discovered Google's NotebookLM and went wild with it creating podcast episodes about my products! Ended up starting a podcast on Substack - https://open.substack.com/pub/jasonleow/p/hello-world-bad #pluginsforcarrd #lifelog #listskit #indiejourney
Tried to make a linkedin profile photo editor for fun and social good, using plain javascript, but got stuck with canvas issues when drawing the darn arc banner that even combined forces of Claude Sonnet 3.5 and ChatGPT-4o can't solve 😩 #indiejourney #socialimpactpatronage
