Closed the first sale on MakePDF.ai! This is my first app that ever made any money. I'm so pumped!

@manoj_ahi Me too! I plan to visit Africa soon and I have Ethiopia, Tanzania, and Kenya on the top of my list. I highly recommend getting a Yellow Fever vaccine first.

Thinking about my first trip to Africa! Which countries should I visit?

@manoj_ahi Yep. Political posts do get amplified really quickly if you saw just one political post.

@So_Crypto_Now @itsolelehmann I also installed claude code along with OpenClaw on the same VPS. So, the coding agent in my OpenClaw uses Claude Code (Opus) for coding tasks.

@akhsaas @itsolelehmann Me too, it is good but for coding it is not as capable as Opus 4.6 even if the benchmarks are looking good. Don´t know why.

@ItsAllonzOver @itsolelehmann It's my main agent that orchestrates other sub agents, which are also using the same model.

@akhsaas @itsolelehmann You using it as your main agent or have it for a specific layer?

@willyzimmm @itsolelehmann The model? It's open weight.

@akhsaas @itsolelehmann This open source?

@mikeassad77 @itsolelehmann I have a coding subagent in my OpenClaw which uses Minimax M2.7 to orchestrate Claude Code which then uses Opus and Sonnet. I think that's best setup.

@akhsaas @itsolelehmann It’s crazy what you get for the $10 MiniMax plan. I sprinkle in Opus and Sonnet where needed and Qwen local for really basic stuff. For me it’s gold and I only pay around $250/mo for everything.

@ItsAllonzOver @itsolelehmann Yep. It works great with OpenClaw. It used to called Coding Plan before and they renamed it to Token Plan now.

@akhsaas @itsolelehmann Token Plan? Works with OpenClaw?

@onlinedopamine Yo Vik, if you're still in Bangkok, I'd love to meet up. A round of your favourite drink is on me.

one of the reasons why i love bangkok is that it allows me to have these pockets of productivity wherever i go for example, working in the grab and not taking train adds about 1-2h of available work time to my day

@jackfriks @marclou Get a room you two

@marclou your face is the most beautiful rainbow ive ever seen

This is the most beautiful rainbow I've ever seen 🌈 No AI, no filter. 📍 Hossegor, France

@chrissyinspace Drop the name, Chris Any indies from BKK wanna hangout working from a cafe this Sunday?

first coffee shop I stumbled into in bangkok

@SimonHoiberg Who said I'm paying?

With AI, everyone can now be a DevOps engineer and run their own infra. Why are you still paying Vercel and Supabase a premium to host? That's just stupid-money.

This is currently powering my coding sessions youtube.com/watch?v=qH6kN2…

@onlinedopamine It's chatgpt for me but llms do bring good amount of revenue

llm conversion rates are insane

@onlinedopamine If it has a gym, I'm in

the number one question i get about the founder house i hosted was whether i would do it again the answer is YES - but with a caveat: with the next one i organize, every participant will have to pay for their share of the accommodation sooooooo.... i am thinking of doing the next one, again for a month, in koh phangan, thailand spent 5 days there recently, thought it was super dope has all the perks of bali (big nomad community, serene beaches, island life, etc) without the downsides (largely around traffic and trash burning) would love to rent a villa that can house between four to six people you should be willing to spend between $1k - $2k for the rent would probably do this towards the end of this or beginning of next year if anyone is down to join, please comment here and/or DM me i'll organize a whatsapp group with everyone who is interested, then we can search together to find something suitable

@manoj_ahi Use DND by TRAI. I can't remember the last time I got a spam call.

How the fk do I turn these off?? The last 2 months were really peaceful because my sim was inactive.

I finally listed MakePDF.ai on TrustMRR. Thank you for making this happen @marclou !

@SingularityRes @metapreston Then I'd use something like Opencode.

@metapreston Anthropic is good today - what if Gemini is better, what if ChatGPT is better after that. Companies don’t care about money but giving the best tool. Also, if Anthropic is supply chain risk by US Govt, can they still allow Claude to its employees and risk getting banned?

Cursor really is cooked. They don't have the capital to train their own models. They don't have the capital to subsidize usage. This is a big boy game now

@themkmaker @steipete I'm building a similar app just for Claude Code.

If you are using multiple AI models this mac app by @steipete is pretty helpful

@NithurM My experience in Malaysia also closer to Bangkok. Their digital payment infrastructure is pretty rad. I didn't really need to use case anywhere except at some hawker centres. I could use my Indian credit card (tap to pay) almost everywhere including the metro.

for real I partly understand the people in the comments on my post claiming otherwise. If you spend more time in a place as a permanent resident or as a someone in a work visa, you tend to get blindspots for certain stuff. But a new visitor can easily spot the odd parts out. Also, when we talk about Bangkok, I think Bangkok has one of the top notch MRT experience, you just get in, easily navigate the ticket process, and get on boarded. In Singapore, I had the exact opposite experience yesterday. I just walk around trying to figure out how it works for some period - no mention of how to get started anywhere in the underpass. So, I walked to the counter, the guy simply said they don't accept cards. So, I had to walk to a 7-eleven to get the ez-link card (they accepted card payments) Then had to come out again to figure out which way to go, Google maps suggested the exact opposite entrance of what I actually wanted. 🤷‍♂️
