Software Engineer, ex @stripe @lmsqueezy 🍋 Now building my new product full time.

🇵🇱
Joined February 2020
I'm building a robot that writes handwritten cards. With a real pen. You type the message → robot writes it → I post it to your customer. Dashboard, Zapier, API, and MCP. Closed beta now. Public launch in November. For now sending only in Poland 🇵🇱.

Week 1 of marketing Paperjoy, honest numbers: X post: 30,400+ views, 0 leads Meta ads (free-sample CTA): ~13 USD per lead, about half of them really good Most leads: Facebook??? + a comment from my dad.

I gave up on full automation for Paperjoy's launch. Friction and vacuum feeders, many iterations. All hit some paper separation issues. So, for now: multiple small plotters, loaded by hand. Speed > perfection.

After a couple of days with @bot it seems that it convinced me to consolidate my AI usage; go back to Cursor and cancel my Claude and Codex subscriptions.

still in awe what opus is capable of rn I'm revisiting ideas I had a couple of moths ago that laaaazy models from back then said were impossible to do and it's just doing these things under 30mins. It'd take me *days* just to research that topic, WILD.

I posted a thing I had fun building yesterday and the amount of haters rushing to tell me that I didn't invent it still makes me laugh. How one can try bring others down for building stuff? 😅

170+ likes, 0 leads, dopamine through the roof. Ads feel depressing but they sure worked better so far 😂 xitter.cf/norbertjurga/status/21…

Not always glamorous. I'm cleaning up and dissasembling some old projects to free up some shelf space today. Ended up with a bag full of hardware to sort but that's future me problem 😅

I've been training really hard for a 70.3 IM this year and ended up being sick, on antibiotics and in terrible pain a week before the race 😪 ngmi

I joined this small, hard-working team in 2023. In 2024 we got acquired. I can't express how grateful I am to have been taken along for this ride. Fast forward two years, and I'm leaving to work on my own product full-time. Today is my last day @ Stripe 🫡 What a wild ride.

Did I mention how annoying it is to wait for a part to be delivered?
I'm slowly switching from software to mechanical engineering.. it's rewarding but so painful Yep, AI changed things here too and you can vibe-wire electronics, vibe-3d model but you still have to go through countless iterations that 1. Take much longer 2. Are way more costly

What code editor is now meta? I don't need it to have any agentic features, just a *good autocomplete*. I work mostly with Codex - I want something minimal to review and polish the AI output. VSC? Now that I don't have Cursor's subscription it makes no sense to use it.
