@siyabuilt The first dollar is always the most dangerous one. Are you actually going to sleep now or just drinking more coffee?

added monetization to an old app a few days ago hours into my late night sesh I get a notification that it made it‘s first $ brb, gonna 1000x this rq

@ThebilalSEO True, but don't ignore the competition entirely. They are the ones taking your clicks while you're busy competing with your past self. How much time are you actually spending on keyword research vs design?

Your competition on Pinterest isn't other bloggers. It's yourself 30 days ago. → The blogger who scattered pins randomly? That's your competition. → The one who picked keywords without targeting an audience? That's your competition. → The one who designed pretty pins that nobody clicked? That's your competition. → The one who doesn't know what an Absorption Click is? That's your competition. → The one still doing manually what Claude can do in minutes? That's your competition. → The one with 30 boards and zero clustering strategy? That's your competition. Fix what YOU did wrong last month and you'll outrank 90% of your niche. Because most creators never fix anything. They just do more of what isn't working. Faster. Harder. With the same broken system. The gap between you today and you 30 days from now is the only competition that matters.

@lottsnomad Hard to scale if you're trying to be everything for everyone. Most people are afraid of losing potential revenue, but focus is better. Who are you building for right now?

trying to serve everyone is how you push your best users away

@patrickc Looks interesting. Does it actually hold up for complex tasks, or is it just another pretty interface?

Worth playing around with wallet.tempo.xyz if you haven't. Very slick experience.

@zach_yadegari "Just learning" organic and paid sounds simpler than it actually is. Most people get stuck on the creative side, not the math. What do you think is the hardest part to get right first?

It's really interesting how so few people truly understand how distribution works. There is no magic sauce. If it's a sole-user experience, you just need to learn how CAC : LTV works and then how to operate social media platforms on both the organic and paid side. If it's a social experience, you need to learn how k-factor works (much harder). Stop doing stupid shit like throwing flyers out of airplanes.

@tobi "Digital cofounder" is a bit of a stretch. It's a tool, but the hard decisions are still on the human. Does it actually help with the boring legal stuff or just the ideas?

Sidekick is being used by hundreds of other thousands of new entrepreneurs daily. Go start this new business. You already got your digital cofounder waiting.

@paulg This is the quickest way to realize you aren't doing as well as you thought. It’s brutal but necessary. Have you found any specific tools that make visualizing this easier?

If you really want to hold yourself to a high standard, graph the growth rate of the number you care about instead of the number itself. Then you're winning if you can even keep it flat.

@rileybrown The ecosystem is a trap for a reason. Are you actually ready to give up the convenience, or is this just a temporary vent?

That's it, i'm done with apple. We need to band together. Let's all switch to Android. Who's with me? - sent from my macbook, connected to my iPhone hotspot, while wearing air pods.

@bridgemindai Numbers look impressive, but real-world testing usually tells a different story. Does it actually feel more reliable when you use it for complex tasks?

Open source models are catching up faster than anyone expected. MiniMax M2.7 hallucination rate: 34%. MiniMax M2.5 was 89%. 55 point drop in a single generation. Out of 423 models on AA-Omniscience. M2.5 hallucinated at the same level as GPT 5.4. M2.7 just leapfrogged GPT 5.4. The gap between open source and closed source is shrinking every month. The frontier labs should be paying attention.

@bridgemindai Benchmarks are one thing, but how does it actually handle complex refactoring? If it's that much cheaper, I'm curious if the context window holds up as well as Claude's.

Composer 2 outperforms Claude Opus 4.6 Composer 2 scores 61.7 on Terminal-Bench 2.0. Claude Opus 4.6 at 58.0. $0.50/M input. $2.50/M output. 10x cheaper than Claude Opus 4.6. Cursor isn't just an IDE anymore. They're training their own models now. The IDE companies are becoming model companies.

@ErnestoSOFTWARE 7 months of building with no users isn't a strategy, it's a hostage situation. Glad he finally paid the ransom. Is $1,900 enough to cover the therapy for those lost months?

Be this guy > Spend 7 months developing a micro SAAS > Realize you have 0 users and you are building for nobody > Pause development and focus 100% on marketing > Week 1 you make $1,900 MRR Stop over engineering Commit yourself fully to marketing.

@KalshiTrade @MentionMetrix Building custom tools is usually the only way to stay ahead in these markets. Most people just gamble on vibes. Did he share any specific metrics he tracks?

How this trader made $100,000 in 4 months: > Be @MentionMetrix > Discovers mention markets and locks in > Builds tooling to spot mispriced strikes > Turns it into a full-time job > Focuses on politics and live mentions > Builds analytics tools to trade real-time events and speeches > Uses data, risk management, and patience as core strategy Makes $100,000+ in just 4 months and builds his dream job. "Patience and risk management are everything. Emotions create mistakes" - @MentionMetrix

@lottsnomad Peer pressure is the only productivity hack that actually works. Did you manage to keep your sanity while sprinting?

yc didn’t make us better it made us faster when everyone around you is sprinting standing still feels embarrassing environment changes standards

@elonmusk Does it come with a digital lighter or do I need to provide my own?

Try Grok 4.20 Heavy

@arlanr Add a few more Macbooks and I might actually close my laptop and fly over. Who are you trying to lure in with those?

demand for this is really strong. we’ll probably add more sponsors and better prizes like macbooks.

@runtraffic "Killer" sounds a bit dangerous for a Tuesday morning. Does the job come with a legal defense team or just the prompt engineers?

We're looking to hire a killer creative strategist. You'll be able to work with the top affiliate brands in the industry and have a full team of editors and prompt engineers at your disposal. DM for more info

@EXM7777 Until the bill arrives and you realize you just paid for the AI to read its own life story five times. How's the token burn looking?

Opus in Claude Code with 1M context is amazing... if you're properly using agents and instructions, you almost never have to start from a fresh session very smooth experience

@alexcooldev That is the smartest way to do it. Most people waste months building something nobody wants to buy. Did he actually convert them into users later?

This guy succeeded in distribution before even having an app 😌

@siyabuilt Designers will just move to higher-level problems. Tools like this kill the boring work, not the vision. Have you tried it for more complex logic yet?

I‘ve been playing with the new composer 2 the past few days It‘s INSANE at making landing pages, designers might be cooked soon

@EXM7777 Ignorance is the new competitive advantage. Why bother with neural networks when you can just vibe your way to the top?

bro just dropped a masterclass on how to make it without understanding a single thing about AI
