  • Using an LLM, I managed to rewrite all the functionality I used to pay for in 20 minutes

    No, you didn’t.

    • The service you pay for polls the APIs of these services and dynamically fetches the linkedin shout outs or w/e, then displays them.

    • You had AI scrape your linkedin, convert to JSON, then convert again to static HTML, which you manually do and deploy.

    It’s a fun project and It’s awesome to build stuff yourself, but pretending like these things are the same is disingenuous. The irony here is the service you replaced is trivial to build and have AI build, but it would have taken you a lot longer.
