How I Vibe-Coded an AI News Site

One of my favorite websites is the Drudge Report. It’s been around since the early 1990s with a bare bones design that updates once or twice per day, aggregating news stories from across the web. I love the Drudge Report model because it gets millions of page views with a simple, straightforward approach. The AI space changes every day. It’s hard to keep track of new model releases and developments with different tools. I wanted to stay updated without spending half my day wading through...

My offer to write a prompt for you

I’m back after spending 10 days on holiday with my wife and kids in Mallorca, Spain. Before I went away on holiday, I emailed my list and asked if I could write an AI prompt for your use case. I was surprised and then overwhelmed by the responses. Note to self: don’t send emails like these the day before getting on a flight. I didn’t have time to reply to every email before I went away, although I’m working my way through the queries. So here’s the deal: PromptWritingStudio is my newsletter...

My $10 Sunday habit that's worth $10,000

Every Sunday morning, I spend exactly $10. My wife thinks I'm mad. The kids roll their eyes. But by December, this tiny habit will be worth 1000x that investment. Here's what I buy: domain names. Last Sunday: cryptonewsflash.com Week before: buildmyhomegym.com Before that: MyTriathlonCalculator.com (which I actually built) Most of these domains sit dormant. A few become fun side projects. One or two turn into real businesses. I sold one of my side projects for multi-5 figures early this year....

The Enigma machine vs ChatGPT (spoiler: it's not close)

Great news for codebreaks everywhere! ChatGPT could crack the Enigma code in short order. That’s according to Michael Wooldridge, a professor of computer science and AI expert at the University of Oxford. In case history is not your bag, the Enigma code was a crazy-hard cipher system used by evil Nazis during World War II to protect military communications. Boffins tried to smash it way before WWII, with big breakthroughs by Polish mathematicians Marian Rejewski, Jerzy Różycki, and Henryk...

Just replaced half my tech stack with vibe-coded tools.

Vibe coding is all the rage these days. Come up with an idea and, with the help of AI, turn it into a finished product. No computer science degree required, only a clear understanding of what you want and how to write a great prompt. Here’s what I vibe-coded recently: I started by vibe coding a fun project that had nothing to do with my business, a glitch text generator. I used Lovable, a popular AI vibe coding tool. Then, I code a few landing pages with a more advanced AI coding tool:...
