My free AI jukebox has been running for 2 weeks now. 50 community generated tracks, hundreds of plays. I’ve added audio visualisations, full screen mode and a docked player that works across my website. Come take a look and generate something weird! datagobes.dev/community/juke…

Do you still push code to GitHub after your job?

@Shubhyxz A colleague of mine always called me with pyspark questions. At one point he asked: how do you know this? Me: I just googled it The colleague: Ah, so you’re not good at pyspark at all, you’re just good at googling. 🤷‍♂️

Interviewer: Do you know system design ? Candidate: Yes! Interviewer: Design a system for 100 users... Candidate: Microservices, load balancer, queues… Interviewer: You are solving for millions... I only asked for 100.

Vibe coding makes you fast at building things you don’t understand. Most of you will ship for 6 months, hit the first real problem, and realize you have no idea what you actually built. The tool isn’t the bottleneck. You are.

@dramaricic I have a different experience. I’ve already made 5 million on 4.7. Follow me to learn how.

I’ve just sent emails to 10 big companies containing a summary of the findings of my gdpr privacy scanner. 1 company already responded within 24 hours they want to see the full report. In two weeks, when all companies will have had ample time to respond to my findings, I will start publishing the scan results. It’s a big mess in privacy land.

Most founders are too busy to be consistent on social media. You need to keep posting every single day and on multiple platforms. Even one platform is a lot. I build @schedpilot to keep up

@KaiXCreator You: Python is not used to run the inference runtime itself. They only give it a python API so it can easily be integrated in the wider python ecosystem.

Interviewer: Python is slow compared to C++. Then why do top AI companies use it to build the world's most powerful models?

If you don’t want to get copied over a weekend here’s my two cents. Don’t go into a craft where you don’t have any expertise just because AI lets you generate plausible results. Figure out how to use AI in the areas where you already have expertise. Then partner with people if you are missing expertise somewhere. Don’t use AI to amplify your weaknesses, use it to amplify your strengths.

@thedevchandra Liked, followed. Here's what I am working on: document intelligence. I am a data engineer originally and now also applying AI in a corporate environment and mentoring other business roles in applying AI. x.com/datagobes/stat…
Gijs@datagobes

Andrej is right. Processing pdf's is hard but lots of knowledge is captured in them. I am focusing on using AI in a corporate setting and document intelligence is a challenge. I ran into this problem when I first started designing an agent that could design agentic systems. I wanted to put all the big papers in a knowledge base and it didn't work out. Until I created Felix, my document intelligence project. Felix decomposes any business document into typed elements, stores them in postgres, and can reconstruct the full document from it. Now that Andrej dropped his llm-wiki idea, I've added an mcp on top so I can use Felix for llm-wiki generation and I will post my wiki from the Mythos document on GitHub later on. (Claude happened to go down the moment I was generating it) See the screenshots for a UI view on the Felix API, which is showing the document Andrej is mentioning here, decomposed and served from postgres. I am not going to tell you to reply FELIX and follow me to get some nonsense prompt and a 199 offer for a crappy workshop. But I am not going to stop you from letting me know you think this is interesting either. If this gets some engagement I will package it and put it on GitHub.

I'm tired of seeing the same faces on my feed man I need brothers in tech, AI, startups, marketing, distribution, vibecoding, sf or elsewhere to build along like, drop your startup, let's make some friends.

@cet3001 @pmitu Exactly this. You need to keep improving the context until you get consistently great output.

@pmitu I'd push back on this slightly. Some people do need AI to think FOR them first just to get started, then they refine it. The problem isn't people using AI to think. The problem is people stopping there and treating the first output as the final answer.

@asaio87 For reference, this was my result. This is the light theme it did and it has a dark variant too. I can see now your ember is a bit more towards red but the background, its hard to tell if its not the same.

I just vibecoded my personal website. Well i redone it, it was looking awful because it was vibecoded with a free version of chat gpt a year ago. Now i made it better with the paid version of Claude. I am happy enough to just have it out there with all my information, all my accounts and some info about myself. Ah and I have a newsletter too Link in the first reply

@gregisenberg Might work for a few. I am pretty convinced right now it's best to stick to your expertise. If you need software, find somebody who can already do this. then combine both your expertises to create something unique. This way you get good software that also solves a real problem.

agents are the new apps the dirty secret of the SaaS era is that the software never actually worked. it was always 70% product, 30% the specific person in your company who knew how to make it behave. that person was called a "power user" they were actually just a human patch agents replace the patch and suddenly everyone realizes the software was broken the whole time what's cool is how much opportunity there is right now so pick a niche. any niche that you believe 1% of the market is $5M ARR+ there the leader in that space has a 20 year old codebase and a customer base that only stayed because switching was painful and that pain just got a lot easier to swallow agents are the new apps are you building yet

@kepano I just tried it this morning on the 245-page Mythos pdf and it failed badly and the outputs were all mangled. Converting pdfs is really hard, I think it has to probably be a Skill not a program, for a SOTA LLM for it to work properly.

I like how the new Claude app looks have made the 5xx responses extra aggressively red. A true quality of life improvement. Before I would have kept retrying. 5 times, 10 times, wasting maybe half an hour. Seeing the Error in this red tint pissed me off so much I just closed the app and called it a day. Thanks Anthropic, you just gave me back half an hour of my time.

Here’s the problem with AI. People make plausible demo’s and push it all over the place. But it’s just a hardcoded routine, nothing agentic about it. But, because it appears impressive it goes viral. People in leadership positions see this. All day, everyday and everywhere they look. They start believing this is real and it is starting to affect decision making. I see executive and director level managers reposting this kind of nonsense. They will start to expect the same from their own people. Who will try to tell him it’s an illusion. The outcome of those discussions will determine the faith of many companies in the years to come.

SOMEONE built an AI agent that sells pool installations on autopilot 10 "boring" cash-flowing startup ideas YOU can build on autopilot using the OpenClaw/Hermes etc: 1. find commercial buildings with flat roofs in sunny states and calculate their solar savings, render the install, mail the building owner a custom ROI report. become the broker between building owners and solar installers, take a cut of every deal or charge $$ 2. find shopify stores doing $1M+/yr with no international shipping and build them a localized storefront for their top non-US traffic countries, pitch a rev share to unlock revenue they're leaving on the table 3. find businesses paying for 10+ SaaS tools via public job postings and tech stack data and build a custom "consolidation audit" showing how to cut 40% of their software spend, sell the migration as a service 4. find commercial properties with high water bills using public utility data and render a xeriscaping or rainwater capture plan with projected savings, sell to property management companies at scale 5. find ecom brands running meta ads to products with 1-2 star reviews and build a better version of their top SKU with a manufacturer, launch against them with their own keyword data 6. find small banks and credit unions with websites from 2012 and render a modern site + mobile app with their branding, pitch it as a turnkey digital transformation. they have budget but no one's calling on them 7. find warehouses and industrial spaces near EV corridors with no charging infrastructure and model the revenue from installing chargers, pitch landlords a lease + install package 8. find franchisees posting complaints in public forums about their franchisor's tech and build a shadow operating system (POS, scheduling, inventory) that plugs into their existing franchise, sell directly to franchisees 9. find medical practices billing under specific CPT codes with low reimbursement rates and build an AI billing optimization engine that reclassifies and appeals claims, take a % of recovered revenue 10. find DTC brands with 100k+ instagram followers but no subscription offering and model their repeat purchase data from reviews, build a subscription flow with retention math, pitch it as a done-for-you program with rev share the framework is basically this use AI agents to surface a gap in public data, build the solution before anyone asks for it, and show up with the math already done. you use info arbitrage + OpenClaw is the ultimate wedge i dont know how long this lasts but i do know there's a ton of ways to make $$ using this and i won't hold back i'll be sharing more ideas here, @startupideaspod and @ideabrowser today is a beautiful day to be building
