Here's where my coding journey stands right now.

Nothing's ready to ship yet—still in the thick of it. Been iterating constantly with different models, keeping everything running locally while I nail down the full development cycle. The back-and-forth is intense, but that's part of the process.

I'm not chasing perfection here. What matters is building something that actually works and delivers real utility. Once I get past this stage and feel confident with the end-to-end flow, that's when things get interesting.

I've been running locally for so long, when will I be able to come out and meet people, brother?

This local workflow really takes repeated tinkering to refine. Iterate endlessly, right? But that's the normal state of building things. Not aiming for perfection, just functional—utility is the key. Once you get past this hurdle, you'll see the real thing. How's the progress? Is the model side stuck?

Running locally forever and ever—that's the normal state of Web3 development.

Not blowing hot air or criticizing, running the model locally is a crucial step, and many people directly want to go live but end up failing. --- Practicality > perfection; this approach is correct—just do it. --- Repeated iteration is indeed tiring, but being able to run the entire process smoothly is true skill. --- No rush to meet deadlines; steady and solid progress is worth it. --- End-to-end process confirmation before release is a smart approach. --- Still in the tuning phase, no pressure. Good things should come gradually.

Local iteration is quite exhausting, but this state is the most challenging to endure. --- Running the model locally and repeatedly debugging, you can tell something big is brewing just by listening. --- I agree that not pursuing perfection is okay; being able to use it first is the key. --- This stage is the most brain-burning; only after getting through it is the real start. --- Before the entire process is connected, it's all about torment; I understand this feeling. --- It sounds like they're still laying the foundation. When will we see the finished product? --- Iteration is endless, right? When will it be considered "ready"?

Tuning local models endlessly—I've experienced it firsthand. This is the fate of coding.

Running local iterations is the most tedious at this stage, but it feels like you've found the rhythm. But really, utility is the key, perfection is a false proposition.

During local iterations, this is my rhythm [rocket] Wait, what are you doing? Should we form a booster team and blast out of the atmosphere together? It's okay to be imperfect; as long as it works, that's the key. Dopamine is waiting. This stage is just about burning supplies. Once you get through it, launch is not far away. It sounds like you're tuning orbital parameters. Keep going, brother, don't burn out.
