@vascoabm It's from the keyboard when the screen is closed

@AntonioEscudero @PabloSantanaT Wow huge numbers on the directory submissions. Congrats man

@_adcx @PabloSantanaT Around 5k in launches, 10k in directory submissions

Our SaaS just crossed $13,500 in the last month! This is how this came to be: After dropping out one year ago from our CS degree in Spain and having created 3 failed projects in 8 months, my cofounder @PabloSantanaT and I, started working on a new SaaS, RankInPublic. We tried to ship it as quick as possible, we did it in single 16 hour sprint, from idea to MVP. At the time the situation with my family wasn't very good, my parentsrecently divorced and, I was starting to get pressured into going back to university, to finish a degree to work at a 9-5 for the rest of my life... I really felt like a loser. But then one day I saw two posts, one by @levelsio talking about how if he were broke again he would move to Vietnam and lock in, and another by @tdinh_me talking about how they were building the @HackerResidency in Da Nang (Vietnam). This seemed like the perfect opportunity. I took my life time savings, $4k, and I booked a one way ticket and a hotel for $190 a month in Da Nang, Vietnam. Once there I had the chance to meet a lot of incredible people, people that taught us a lot, people who inspired us to push to higher limits. One day, after two months of working on RankInPublic we got our first payment. Someone wanted to sponsor the tournament!!! That day was one of the happiest days of my life :) Since then we have been working hard on RankInPublic, every single day. And now, after 7 months in, and after a few weeks of stagnation and questioning if everything was over, suddenly we started making $1k+ per day. We didn't change a single line of code, but we discovered how to market the product. We had set a goal of $10k a month for our SaaS, and now after achieving the goal in less than two weeks, we are doubling down and setting a new goal, $100k a month. I don't know how much time it will take us, but I know we will achieve it.

@robin_faraj @grok 😎

hey @grok, please show this post only to future millionaires

@valsopi The fact it's selling well, does that mean you're settled on the new prices then?

A few weeks ago I experimented with changing the brand color to red. While it was ok and converted, it just didn't suit my taste of what I think Blogmaker is. Today we're back to the indigo brand! And the new pricing has been selling like hot cakes 💰 Status: Super happy 🏆

@_nghiatran European cafe owners love their rules

Coffee in Vietnam/Thailand: Here is your $2 coffee, and do whatever you like Spain: No, you have to go to the basement and follow the rule to use your Mac 🤷

@_lhermann @uptimerobot In 7 days too!?

I've been with @uptimerobot for years and always recommended them. But now they are force-upgrading me to a $348/y plan. Super unfriendly towards legacy customers. Anyone know a bootstrapped-friendly alternative?

@richiemcilroy Yeah, I really enjoyed it even though it wasn't really what I was expecting (I purposely didn't watch any trailers)

Project Hail Mary was incredible 10/10, amaze, 👎

@DmytroKrasun Also please don't stay silent. Post about anything, opinions or not, I always love seeing your content on my feed!

@adamcollins Respect 🫡

Tried to post a few times. But then deleted. It feels like nothing I write resonates with myself these days. I guess staying silent and not having an opinion on everything is fine.

@krisbogdanov Even just formalising it as a tax on uni students would make more sense. I can't even imagine how much money is wasted on operations at the SLC

@adamcollins Yeah I was thinking the same thing. At the moment, it doesn't matter if the interest if 5% or 500%, you will just never pay it off. The best way to put it is that it's not a loan, but an additional 9% tax you pay on your earnings over £25k until you are about to retire.

I graduated in 2019 with a £45k student loan. After almost 7 years of repayments, my current balance sits at... £60k. To be honest, like many graduates, I haven't looked at my student loan balance. It just goes out of my account on a monthly (or annual) basis as part of my tax bill. After a lot of discussions on social media in recent months, I decided to have a look at my account and not only have I not made a dent, but the loan has increased by ~35% due to interest payments. Student loan was advertised as something that it would get written off in 30 years (and now 40 years with Plan 5) like it was a benefit. In reality, you just pay 9% additional tax until you retire. I vibe coded a tool to visualise the loan, payments and interest. The results are as follows. On my £45k loan, over the next 23 remaining years: - I'd pay £75k until it's written off - I'd accumulate £120k additional interest (based on current interest rates) before it gets written off - even if I pay an extra £150 per month, the loan wouldn't be written off before the cutoff date. I put the calculator online so you can check your student loan calculations as well

@nikpolale Grok has taste

🥰🥰🥰

@robin_faraj Always more jobs, rooting for you brother

I just quit my job to follow my dreams No, I don’t make much money Yes, I’m terrified 6 Months Runway

@nickswan If you select "more" you can pick the date range yourself. For some reason it doesn't select the last few days on some of the views but you can select them manually

Search Console hasn't updated since Saturday, but why does it say the "Last update: 19 hours ago" ? This is the 24 hour data that is updating - which isn't confirmed and is subject to change. The daily updates is what we all care about - but that "Last updated" info is confusing.

@DmytroKrasun @jackfriks Yeah, using it for both macOS and Windows

@adamcollins @jackfriks With macOS?

i really thought deep and hard and almost worked up enough courage to spend a stupid amount of money on an apple studio display only to realize it’s 60hz 😹😹😹😹😹…
