Marketing is chicken & egg problem for me so f*ck it, I'll just yolo this. I'm building a desktop swiss army knife (i.e. dictation + AI features). I've been using it for the past 6 months and I can't live without it now. (It's gonna be good). Out next month (hopefully 💀)

@Papo_Fett @thdxr oh man I am dying to share it you have no idea, I am finishing the website this month. Should be good by the first half of April hopefully. Not open source. Monthly or Lifetime offer. But "paying monthly" just to talk to your PC is nonsense, that's another reason I built this.

@Jim_Faster @thdxr Have you open sourced it or made it paid app? If so, can you share a link?

when we first started working on opencode days would pass by where we wouldn't use it and go back to our editor for everything had to actively try and switch our workflow now we're on the opposite extreme where we're all trying to use it less - crazy how fast that happened

Was going through my bookmarks today. I think about this a lot...

@antigravity Antigravity still fails to run autonomously for more than 30 seconds. Even with all permissions granted, I still get asked to approve terminal commands. This is extremely frustrating. Codex runs easily for 30 mins+ alone. You have to fix it. This is not a small issue.

@oost_marcel @ylecun There has to be an angle. A catch 22. I don't trust these people...

🚨𝘽𝙍𝙀𝘼𝙆𝙄𝙉𝙂: European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen unveiled EU–INC, a new framework that lets you launch a company in 48 hours for under €100 Starting a company across the EU today = 27 legal systems, 60+ company structures 🤯 That might be about to change… The European Commission just introduced 𝗘𝗨 𝗜𝗻𝗰., a new optional corporate framework designed to make Europe actually function like one market. Here’s what stands out: → Set up a company in 48 hours → Cost: < €100 → Fully online, no minimum capital → One single framework across all EU countries → Easier share transfers & fundraising → EU-wide employee stock options (huge for talent) Especially the EU-wide stock option plans, taxed only when employees actually sell (instead of when granted) is huge. This makes it far easier for startups to attract and retain top talent, finally putting Europe closer to the US playbook. Source/More info: ec.europa.eu/commission/pre… In short: This is Europe trying to compete with the simplicity of a Delaware C-Corp 🇺🇸 And honestly… it’s long overdue. For years, European founders had 2 choices: 1. Stay local and deal with fragmentation 2. Move to the US to scale 𝗘𝗨 𝗜𝗻𝗰. is trying to remove that trade-off. If executed well, this could be one of the most important structural changes for European startups in decades. What do you think?

@pbakaus Still laggy and my screen freezes sometimes for a second or 2. Definitely better than before where it would just freeze for 10 secs or more. Check out how @davidhdev did it on his library reactbits. Gonna need some trade off most likely.

@Jim_Faster did a whole lot of loading optimizations - see if it works better now?

@socoloffalex Don't worry mate. Your job is to have taste. AI doesn't replace that because it has no judgment abilities whatsoever. People who produce good-looking websites with AI are usually spitting out an inferior version of the original.

Can someone please explain me why everyone is so obsessed with ripping designers, like AI can do a lot of other things (poorly but can) Leave us a lone and go find some better things to do, touch some grass or go fuck yourself for example.

man im really fighting to not record a whole video on svelte

This is wild. 143 million people thought they were catching Pokémon. They were actually building one of the largest real-world visual datasets in AI history. Niantic just disclosed that photos and AR scans collected through Pokémon Go have produced a dataset of over 30 billion real-world images. The company is now using that data to power visual navigation AI for delivery robots. Players didn't just walk around with their phones. They scanned landmarks, storefronts, parks, and sidewalks from every angle, at every time of day, in lighting and weather conditions that staged photography would never capture. They documented the physical world at a scale no mapping company with a fleet of vehicles could have replicated on the same timeline or budget. Niantic collected this systematically, data point by data point, across eight years, while users thought the only thing at stake was catching a rare Charizard. The most valuable AI training datasets in the world aren't being assembled in data centers. They're being built by people who have no idea they're building them.

@Hestia_Esq @MrEnlightened9 All I'm seeing is that people with your views cling to vaporwave to fuel their apparent hate. For now, it legally remains 0% proofs, 100% accusations. What IS verifiable, however, is that they're indeed, fit, rich, famous. That doesn't really rally anyone objective to your side.

@MrEnlightened9 Lmao they are human trafficking, raping, women beating scum. They also somehow present as very gay insecure losers at the same time. Pathetic losers that everyone except idiots like you laugh at until they get locked up for good.

Same with Andrew and Tristan Tate Their narcissistic father serially cheated on their mother, leading to their divorce. After, the dad abandoned the family, leaving their mother to raise them, and struggle financially Their retard brains somehow twist this to idolize the father and hate the mother

@akaphill @dillon_mulroy @CloudflareDev That's just perfect. Thanks guys. Cloudflare is awesome

@DanKulkov Yes. Frontend related skills using specific librairies. Cloudflare skills + all their CLI tools for devops (this is the most valuable one by far. It's f-cking huge but it's game changer) Python anti patterns, and Vercel react best practices. Just use them.

be real for one sec are you using any cursor / claude skills daily? i feel huge FOMO on this

@mstockton These benchmarks are bullshit. They clearly don't use documents from construction companies...

I am not very well versed in these benchmarks, but I am well-versed in the complexity of extracting messy data from PDFs. I’ve leaned heavily on Azure Document Intelligence or Docling for this, but this looks super interesting - particularly the benchmark scores against the foundation models. Just truly remarkable that you can run something like this locally now, and this model is under 1b parameters! Wild - I am going to give this a spin

@TeksEdge These benchmarks are bs. I tried many VLMs. Only 2 are actually viable for now. @LandingAI closed source (Founded by Andrew Ng). @datalabto Chandra model - 24gb VRAM minimum required. That 0.9b param vlm isn't gonna do sh*t on extremely messy / crappy docs from the real word.

🚨 Want to parse complex PDFs with SOTA accuracy, 100% locally? 📄🔍 At just 0.9B parameters, you can drop GLM-OCR straight into LM Studio and run it on almost any machine! 🥔 🧠 0.9B total parameters 💾 Runs on < 1.5GB VRAM (or ~1GB quantized!) 💸 Zero API costs 🔒 Total data privacy Desktop document AI is officially here. 💻⚡

@pcshipp 300 potential feedback

I’m really sad about my first results It’s been 28 days since launch - 283 new users - 285 new users - $0 MRR - $0 revenue Feeling like quitting mobile app building

@ryanvogel @thdxr @kitlangton Bro I cried. This is funny as shit

exclusive insider view: @thdxr has finally met @kitlangton

@niyonx Huge win to pay the rent with your apps man. Congratulations.

I just submitted my resignation letter. In 2022, I had a startup with 4 other co-founders. I burned through my runway and had to go back to 9-5. Since then, I have built multiple apps on the side and they now makes enough to pay my rent. I’m now ready to bet on myself again. This time will be different. Wish me luck!

@pbakaus @Bfaviero You got shilled by fireship himself. You paid him ? Because if you didn't, big f-ckin win.

@Bfaviero I’m obviously biased, but give impeccable.style a try. It should make it better, but don’t expect one shorted brilliance :)

Is there any AI tool that actually does UI Design well? Like building a new app from scratch.
