3 days until I launch my SaaS 🚀 3 weeks of building. 1 private beta with real founders. 0 funding. Dropfix, an AI that detects SaaS churn BEFORE users cancel. Here's what it does 👇

@becka1icious Between tuition, housing costs, and AI taking entry level jobs... yeah it's rough out here

pretty horrible time to be alive if you’re a college student

@sadreturns gen x wanted walls. gen z wants quiet. neither got what they asked for. peak corporate irony.

there’s a cosmic irony in the fact that gen x thought cubicles were hell because they were so anti-social, and now gen z is subjected to open plan offices which are hell because they’re too social

@ammalusty Bro is sitting in the dark staring at a 'reset password' email. technology is beautiful😅.

Technology has gone too far man. My roommate is logged out of his lightbulbs because he forgot his password

@IT_unhinged Clever workaround, but it delays the real conversation. The CTO's instinct for a unified view is valid ,just needs proper scoping and investment. Short-term saves aren't a replacement for long-term architecture.

Our CTO asked for a “single pane of glass dashboard” that shows literally everything happening in IT. I told him that’s impossible without significant architecture changes and at least 2 new platforms. That’s a lie. I already have a single pane of glass: it’s a browser tab with our monitoring tool and 10 custom filters. If he got access, he’d start asking questions like “why is CPU at 92% here” and “what’s this alert.” Then I’d have to explain, and explaining is unpaid emotional labor. So I built him a fake dashboard in PowerPoint. The graphs are just animated GIFs looping the same fake data forever. He stares at it in meetings and says things like “I can see our resilience story improving in real time.” Everyone is dumb except me. I should get a raise.

@chat_SBC I get the frustration, but this isn't the answer. Step away, reset, and remember that your health is the only metric that truly matters.

if youre in saas pivot to killing yourself

@errai Appreciate the creative attempt, but that code stays with me. Security first always.

DO NOT share this one-time code with anyone. We will NEVER ask you for this code (a faint trace of a smile appears on the computer) Ah, what the hell. What’s your code, brother

@jakehalloran1 Bro your connector is one bad update away from being replaced by ChatGPT.

the number 2 dumbest thing the chatgpt finance connector thinks im spending money on is chatgpt

@farzyness Looks like they let an intern discover flexbox for the first time and said 'ship it'.

Whoever designed this needs to be fired immediately:

@zone_molly So the university is flexing that their students work four jobs just to survive? that's not a highlight, that's an indictment.

my university just shared a student highlight where my classmate explained they work FOUR on campus jobs and "barely make ends meet" and my university thought it was a good idea to post that publically ??

@AishwaryaDevv Felt this in my bones. first month was 'wow look how fast' and month three was 'where did this bug even come from.' started rewriting the core by hand just to sleep at night.

Am I the only one getting vibe coding fatigue? Building landing pages in 30 seconds was fun, but maintaining a complex codebase where half the logic was “vibed” into existence is an absolute headache. Feels like we traded 1 hour of typing for 5 hours of architectural debugging later. I’ve started manually writing core logic again so I actually know where the technical debt is hiding. Is anyone successfully managing large production projects with AI agents, or are we all just building disposable software?

@calajms Right ? Bookmarking is my stealth research mode. tiktok really broke that trust for no reason.

im so glad twitter doesnt notify people when you bookmark their posts like tiktok does

@thereisnobeth it's always 'good for other people's jobs' until your own job is on the list.

the great thing about AI is that everyone seems to think "well it gets things wrong in my area of expertise but its so good for everything else"

@kimmonismus They didn't even need to move money. just being able to ask 'why am i broke' and get a real answer is game over.

So OpenAI literally kill*d many fintech startups today OpenAI launched a personal finance feature in ChatGPT for Pro users in the US. You connect your bank accounts via Plaid, get a spending dashboard, and can ask GPT-5.5 questions grounded in your actual transaction data - balances, spending patterns, subscriptions, investments. It can't see full account numbers or move money. Intuit integration is coming for things like tax estimates and credit card applications. Financial memories store context like savings goals across conversations. Plus users get it later, free tier eventually. They built an internal benchmark with 50+ finance professionals and say GPT-5.5 Thinking scores 79/100, GPT-5.5 Pro 82.5/100 on complex personal finance tasks.

@somewheresy Finally a DEI that actually keeps the servers running

DEI stands for Datacenter, Electricity and Infrastructure now

@IntCyberDigest The cert rotation tells you everything. This wasn't a close call. This was a near miss with permanent consequences.

‼️🚨 This is wild. OpenAI just confirmed it got hit in the TanStack npm supply chain attack, and the attackers were close to being able to ship malicious code inside official OpenAI software, signed and trusted, if their incident response had not caught it in time. The campaign is the work of TeamPCP, the same crew running the Mini Shai-Hulud wave. Two employee devices in OpenAI's corporate environment were compromised through the malicious TanStack packages. The attackers used that foothold to reach a limited subset of internal source code repositories. OpenAI says only "limited credential material" was successfully exfiltrated, with no customer data, production systems, intellectual property or deployed software impacted. Here is the part that should grab your attention. OpenAI is rotating its code-signing certificates and forcing every macOS user to update their OpenAI apps. You do not rotate signing certs for "limited credential material." You rotate signing certs when the attacker was close enough to signing malicious binaries as OpenAI. The "we contained it in time" framing is doing serious heavy lifting here. For wider context, the same TeamPCP wave also hit Mistral AI, UiPath, Guardrails AI, OpenSearch and SAP npm packages. The TanStack compromise is tracked as CVE-2026-45321 at CVSS 9.6, and Mistral AI source code is already being advertised for sale by the group.

@ClaudeDevs Best notification all week.

Happy Friday! We've reset everyone's 5-hour and weekly rate limits.

@upshine3 Weshould. But schools barely have funding for basics, let alone screenings.

serious question, why don't we screen all kids for dyslexia, adhd, and autism when they start primary school?

@PopBase Cool idea until chatgpt tells you to invest your rent money into crypto because 'the data suggests volatility is an opportunity.

OpenAI has announced plans to let users “securely connect” ChatGPT to their bank accounts through Plaid. The proposed intention is for ChatGPT to provide users with curated financial advice.

@ysuckme Needed to hear this today. 6 months feels long but 5 years of regret feels longer. Time to lock in.

6 months of focus can actually fix your last 5 years of mess.

@peegzy1 Honestly though, most parents do their best with what they had. Rich or not, if they tried, that's already a win.

I have tried LinkedIn. I have tried Indeed. I highly recommend having rich parents.
