Please 🙏🏼

@isawsukul Moved to Opus 4.7?

Claude code w/opus has been feeling awfully dumb and slow the last 2 weeks. Codex w/5.4 on the other hand seems like a much more reliable option, no second takes etc, but a bit too precautionary

@_abdullahsaleem Always good to have someone who is going through the same things as you are

@akashdhoot How about building solo?

The right partners > everything else. Even if you compromise on terms, valuation, or timing- pick the people. You will always be at peace. Learnt this the hard way, early. Now it’s the best decision filter I have.

The wide ball review needs to stop. Now.

At this point, climbing Everest seems easier than getting in touch with a human agent at Meta. No way to get in touch with customer support!

Claude working better today 🙏 Switched to the app from VS Code

Powerplays should be done away with in T20s! Also, larger boundaries, please.

Is claude gaslighting me?

What using Claude today feels like

@ShanuMathew93 Agree. Feels like a major downgrad last few hours

Opus is so unbelievably nerfed today, it's like talking to a model from 2-3 years ago. What is going on

@claudeai is not giving the same level of output it had been giving. Feels like a major life downgrade

Claude making a lot of mistakes last 2-3 days- wrong outputs, needs way more iterations to get things right.

Curious - any Indian manufacturer making peptides like Retatrutide?

@PaulNiklas8 The vitamins, minerals, greens powder etc.

@akashdhoot What does general wellness entail?

TikTok Shop US - top 300 shops, December vs March The richest person on TikTok would have a fragrance brand, a shapewear brand, and a general wellness brand to cover seasonality

If you want to know how much Mumbai yearns for open spaces, visit the coastal road promenade on a Sunday evening.

@NotZainAgain You think Shark will also see a drop with time?

Goli is considered one of the OG’s of TikTok Shop. Launched the original creator contest with insane prizes, lost tons of money on tiktok ads to drive spillover to retail, hosted arguably the best creator event (Goli Gala) with some of the top creators in the country… Despite all that they’re still stuck at $3 mil/month while brands that got on TTS more recently like Shark are hitting $18 mil/month (6X the sales) in less than a year Just goes to show that creators are extremely important but product and product-channel fit trumps all

@shunyafarak depends on the product

@akashdhoot Hi Akash, were your running Better Alt under USDA Organic or conventional products? Are US consumers accepting (B2B&B2C) products without USDA Organic?

FMCGs are buying up Ayurveda startups. The real play is global- we proved this with BetterAlt upto a certain scale. Demand outside India for natural, heritage-backed products is massive. Massive TAM unlocks when you take these brands worldwide.
