@Siron93 how should i market killthesub.com to them?

there’s a whole community on TikTok begging for a 'subscription cancellation' app. basically Tinder, but you swipe left to instantly cancel a sub you forgot about. market is massive. competition is low. generated the MVP screens in 1 minute. you can literally copy this today.

@antonosika A mobile app.

What should we build next?

How we decide our product roadmap at Lovable: 1. We listen to our customers 2. We factor in how fast we can unlock new capabilities

@Snaljapen Jag har både oanad excitement och rädsla. Tänker på det extremt mycket.

Hopp & förtvivlan. Ena dagen tycker jag AI är de bästa sen skivat bröd. Dagen efter tror jag mina barn kommer bli knarkare pga arbetslöshet och hopplöshet. En dag senare är AI verkligen en möjliggörare av Human 2.0. Sen är alla plötsligt arbetslösa igen. Ambivalensen..

AI is breaking the historical relationship between engineering headcount and software output. That shift is reshaping how startups will be built, where development bottlenecks emerge, and what startup founders and venture investors should look for. Some of my takeaways: (1/5)

@tylerangert replit already done it, they just follow

this is the founder equivalent of becoming a paperclip maximizer. "increase shareholder value," they said. we must increase our TAM to 8 billion therefore we will literally make our core product a kitchen sink for "general purpose work". why. just make separate products if you are so inclined. what a completely dilutive move. going as horizontal as possible with no opinion

@signulll @iSamiXG lovable

@iSamiXG haven’t seen any startups that do it well. major companies like apple do it well.

most startups treat their launch as the story. it’s definitively not.. it should be just the opening line. what actually happens now is that there is typically one big launch video, then silence, then occasional product announcements that nobody asked for & nobody remembers. there’s no connective tissue. each piece of content has to justify itself from zero because there’s no accumulated world for it to inhabit. what you should be doing is designing the launch as chapter one of a long book… i.e. don’t fucking create a standalone film. every week you’re adding a page to that damn book.. this is a feature, a use case, a small revelation about what the product knows & why that matters. the content continues. what does this do? well this compounds like hell. audiences who follow a narrative become invested in its resolution. they feel the absence when a chapter’s missing. that’s a completely different relationship than “i saw their launch video once.” this is what we will do with skye.

@scottbelsky welcome to consulting

thinking: products that help humans get credit for the work accomplished by agents they supervise in the enterprise will have better adoption than agentic solutions that do the work instead of humans. credit feeds ego, drives adoption...and accountability.

@jsundlo Definitely those! But still not about local files

@agaton Files not so much, browser capabilites though and acting like a human in the browser = nice. But also solvable in the cloud

I don’t get what people still do on their computers locally? Been using Cowork quite extensively since launch, and I still can’t find a single task that involved local files (and if it did, I uploaded it anyway). Why not just launch Cowork in the cloud so we could use the Claude app on all devices?

@felixrieseberg Why not just launch cowork cloud?

We're shipping a new feature in Claude Cowork as a research preview that I'm excited about: Dispatch! One persistent conversation with Claude that runs on your computer. Message it from your phone. Come back to finished work. To try it out, download Claude Desktop, then pair your phone.

@aakashgupta @hkanji this is so strange? why not launch cowork cloud first and focus on that? i find the local aspect of cowork the most negative part of the product. 90%+ of use cases would work cloud native and then you could have access to it on all your devices including phone etc?

Anthropic is building OpenClaw faster than OpenAI is. OpenClaw proved a concept the entire industry had been theorizing about: your AI agent should live on your computer, not in someone else’s cloud, and you should be able to talk to it from anywhere. 318,000 GitHub stars. Then Steinberger joined OpenAI to build exactly this at scale. Here’s what OpenAI has shipped since: Codex, a desktop coding agent with no mobile remote control. ChatGPT Agent, which runs on a remote virtual computer in OpenAI’s cloud where it can’t see your local files. Developers are filing GitHub issues on the Codex repo right now requesting phone-to-desktop control. Third-party devs already built Taskdex and Remote Codetrol to hack around the gap with relay servers and Tailscale tunnels. Anthropic just shipped it natively. Dispatch: pair your phone with Claude Desktop, message Cowork from anywhere, come back to finished work. Cowork already had the VM running on your machine, full filesystem access, browser control, sub-agent coordination, and a skills system stored as markdown. Dispatch was the missing piece that turns the whole stack into something you can operate from your pocket. The reason this works when cloud agents can’t: Cowork reads your actual filesystem, your actual browser, your actual connected tools. When I ask it to cross-reference a local spreadsheet with a competitor’s pricing page, it can do that because both the spreadsheet and the browser are on my machine. A cloud agent would need me to upload the spreadsheet first, lose the file path context, and still wouldn’t have access to my connected Slack or Google Drive. The context is real because the machine is real. I’ve been running Cowork since launch. Five tasks dispatched every morning before my kids wake up: research briefs, competitor analysis, file organization, data pulls from local spreadsheets, editing passes on drafts. 90 minutes of active work compressed into 10 minutes of dispatching and 20 minutes of reviewing outputs. Dispatch changes what happens the rest of the day. An idea hits while I’m out, I message Cowork from my phone, the work is waiting when I get home. And the part that should keep OpenAI up at night: Anthropic didn’t need to acquire OpenClaw or hire Steinberger to ship this. They were already building the same architecture independently. Cowork launched in January with local VM execution, filesystem access, and markdown skills before OpenClaw was even mainstream. Steinberger validated the demand. Anthropic had already built the supply. OpenAI bought the architect. They’re still looking for the blueprints he left at Anthropic’s door.

@PeterRosdahl @borspicker Ja, men även av Christinas första tid som blev jättebra. Henrik Persson är ett investeringsgeni och det blev otroligt.

@agaton @borspicker Det är så mycket tokigt i det bolaget. Känns som ett svek mot Hugo och Jan och ett fördärv av deras bolag.

$KINV Köper allt skit han kan komma åt under tech-yran, och bolaget har gått back nästan 90 % på fem år! Får ändå 24 miljoner i avgångsvederlag 🫣 Make it make sense 👀

@sporadica yes. why china beats us the moment.

it’s actually funny how Marc /is/ on to something, sorta our culture+economy is being completely rewired to favor those with no “introspection” in a way no thinking, just action, just do things, think about consequences and morals and plans later. make a fuss. go viral. piss people off. lie. raise tons of money with no plan. don’t think things through just DO. and this is why we will falter and, potentially, fail completely.

@sporadica and…

someone: you should think about your actions every so often and maybe even try hard to be a good person pmarca: “lmao retard start a crypto prediction market with built in roulette and tinder and slop plz thank you”

I’m a mediocre success story, but I see my lack of interest in gaming as one of the reasons I ended up doing well. Not against gaming, but I’m pretty sure most of their success comes from factors like curiosity, high agency, risk-taking, and serendipity. Gaming? Not so much.

@NordnetAra Filmen dock väldigt bra

Minns ni "Catch me if you can"? Baserad på Frank Abagnales liv som checkförfalskare, pilot, jurist, läkare. För några år sen visade granskningar att historien inte bara är överdriven utan påhitt Tycker dock det höjer honom som "con-artist". Blåste oss alla som trodde hans story

@bhalligan Haha! True!

@agaton The good news is that nobody writes books anymore! 😀

Dear listeners of my Long Strange Trip pod, Sometimes I have folks on that doing the pod circuit. Should I (1) assume my ceo deep dive is unique and not worry about it OR (2) not spend time filming folks on the circuit as it’s too repetitive? Bh.

Jag skiter i att vi har många startups. Jobben går inte till oss, kapitalet går inte till oss, tillväxt finns det inget av.
