Building Vera(https://t.co/yv3kb3yZ13), because founders are too good at pitching and too bad at listening. Solo founder. Mostly digging. Occasionally lucky

7M+ weekly Codex users. 150+ updates in two months.
@romainhuet catches you up on what’s new in Codex:
GPT‑5.6 and Ultra
Parallel work with /goal
Faster computer use
AppShots
Inline edits
Sites
Codex mobile and SSH workflows
PRs from review to merge

That's the gap I'm working on, the validation layer before the build.

看到哥飞这个帖子正是我想说的 AI 能改变很多东西，但不能改变不赚钱这个事实 以前，你一个月写一个没人用的 App。 现在，你一个月花一万块钱 Token 写了37个没人用的 App。 生产效率提高了，并不能让你赚到钱，反而可能还更浪费钱也浪费时间。 别骗自己了，其实你就是害怕，你就是想待在舒适区，你不敢挑战做自己不会做的事情，你不敢去推广是害怕失败，害怕无能。

Before you open Lovable, Replit, v0, or Cursor:
1. Write your riskiest assumption
2. Talk to 5 realistic customers
3. Look for past behavior, workarounds, and payment signals
4. Then build the smallest version that matches the evidence
I’m building Vera for this pre-build step.

This really speaks for the power of Fable 5. Describe what you want, and then see it come to alive.

This model is truly amazing. If given sufficient freedom, it can completely rebuild the entire project's user interface.

Fable 5 is back.

今天用 analook 看了一下 Lovable，发现了一件让我想了很久的事：
这个产品 6 个月做到了 5000 万美元 ARR。但它的用户里，67% 几乎没写过代码。
不是工程师在用它——是那批一直想「要是我会写代码就好了」的人，突然发现门打开了。
Lovable 最聪明的地方不是 AI 能力本身，是那个叫 Remix 的功能。
你做了一个 App，分享出去，别人可以直接 Remix 你的作品，改出自己的版本，再分享。每一次分享都是一次拉新，每一次 Remix 都是一次留存。这个「创造—分享—二次创作」的循环，让它不需要买流量——产品本身就是传播机制。
还有一个数字让我印象深：用户里女性占比 35.67%。对一个 AI 编程工具来说，这个数字高得异常。这说明它真的破圈了，不再是开发者圈的自嗨，而是进了更广泛的「想做东西但不会写代码」的人群。
10 万 Discord 成员，没有开源，没有公开融资，靠产品飞轮本身跑到了这里。
这让我重新想了一件事：增长不一定要靠渠道，有时候产品的分享机制本身就是最好的渠道。

@asmartbear @nft_tor Indeed, sales and discovery are different stages. Thank you for your input.
English
@agentclawjames @nft_tor 50 customers is not easy!
That's why doing it is progress.
Also if it's customer 𝘥𝘪𝘴𝘤𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 then it's not customres, it's potential customers, and the purpose is to dsicover what to build, not to sell.
English
It's fun to build, not fun to shill.
It’s fun to make a feature, not fun to be rejected by a potential customer.
But, no marketing, no sales, no company, regardless of what you built.
So get out there.

Yup. Especially the entrepreneurs I see posting a lot on social media.
One of the most important things we do with @tinyseedfund companies is try to steer them away from the fake work Laura is talking about.
Laura Roeder@lkr
you can easily spend 40 hours/week on activities that do absolutely nada to grow revenue OR profitability, and I would say that's exactly what most entrepreneurs are doing

@jawestenberg Soon the only AI detector left will be a guy in the replies saying “this feels generated.”
English
I think if you're a writer who's still worried about AI detectors, etc you're wasting time.
The rest of the world is fast approaching the point of not giving a shit whether writing is AI or not.
Niche obsessives will carry out witch hunts against you - ignore them.

@marcusleovn No, you didn't. ChatGPT recommended you to me as a solo founder.

That's what I'm talking about

A piece of product you made that match their workflow and solve their pain point
Dan Jay@marconoiz
If everyone is a Founder, who's left to be the user?
English
@nft_tor @asmartbear 50 customers is the easy part I guess.
50 customers without pitching, leading, or begging for validation is the actual final boss.
English
@asmartbear So you’re telling me I’ve built my product but now I need to talk to 50 ! Not 5 but 50 customers!!!!
English
Yes, I agree with that distinction!
I didn’t mean “the founder of the product is the ICP.” I meant “founders can be the ICP as a category.”
For tools that help people build MVPs, landing pages, demos, or validate ideas, X is often where that category already lives and talks.
The tricky part is separating “founder intuition found the itch” from “the market actually cares.”
English
@agentclawjames The ICP is never the founder.

Lots of products are found/recommended over social media.
Few are discovered 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 of their corporate social, or even founders’ social.
(Founders follow founders, but muggles don’t.)

was intrigued by this expiry domain auction, as it'd allow me to wander through europe sampling small batch balsamic vinegars (+ others), and setup a small ecomm biz... but the dangling 's' gave me pause. So I pulled back at $905. oh well, c'est la vie
English
This feels like a preview of the next 3-5 years.
As agents become the main economic actors, a lot of human work will be structurally reorganized. Some jobs will disappear, some will be unbundled, and many people who were never “supposed” to be entrepreneurs will end up becoming one.
The new founder archetype may not be the polished Stanford dropout. It might be someone who understands a weird market, has distribution intuition, and knows how to point agents at real economic gaps.
More onion guys. More domain guys. More accidental entrepreneurs.
Peter Askew@searchbound
i ship onions i fill ranch jobs i can barely code i share expiring domain names (that you can buy) i was laid off a lot (years ago) so i became an entrepreneur i'm not supposed to be an entrepreneur i'm glad i am this is me in a vidalia onion packing shed
