No, I am not ex-Meta ex-Netflix ex-Google or any other ex's. I was born in Iran, Tehran. I had no friends because we had to travel every 3 months due to my dad's work. My unfair advantage? Sheer will! I once told my uncle, "I'm going to make $6,000/month" one day, and he laughed at me. He said, "It's good to have dreams, but they're just dreams." Now I'm making between $12-$15k/month every month. I bought a house and an SUV for my mom, helped my brother get into Webflow boot camp, and invested in real estate in multiple countries. I've launched more than 10 businesses and generated over $10m+ dollars for my clients over the past 10 years. If I can do it, you can do it. If you believe, you, like me, have 2 hands. You can do it!

@flornkm This is why I pay my internet for

Radiation Counter, but it detects AI slop instead (Sound on)

@ky__zo at least you didn't miss the plane

oh no no no no... 1 - me on an airplane 2 - my ipad left at the airport 3 - my iphone left at the hotel

@yacineMTB you can use polybar

macos could never

@yacineMTB i am shoving so many books/papers/materials into notebookllm/claude/chatgpt and understanding so many things and learning best time to learn/understand ngl.

you can outsource your thinking but you cannot outsource your understanding

gpt-5.5 pro is genuinely good at css view transitions. opus 4.6 too. neither could make it work in safari though. burned $50 in tokens. design engineers are safe for now.

@owen_venter try to create a game in three.js or animations and you'll get back into flow state asap lol.

Programming used to put me into FLOW state often. That’s a big part of why I fell in love with it. Late night missions building games, apps, whatever, it felt great. Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi has a great quote on this: “The best moments in our lives… occur when a person’s body or mind is stretched to its limits in a voluntary effort to accomplish something difficult or worthwhile.” AI has kind of nuked the personal challenge part of that. I don’t fall into those same FLOW states nearly as often anymore. It’s a strange position to be in because I’m undeniably more productive, but some of the joy is gone. I still love building software, but now the enjoyment comes more from seeing products come to life and have real-world impact than from the actual process of writing the code. I’ll miss the deep flow states that came from fighting code for hours into the night, but I feel like I do need to find new areas that still offer that same sense of challenge.

Oh god Safari sucks at CSS view transitions!

@emmajo ideabro

need a slur for idea guys who are unemployed yet somehow also too busy to execute on any of their ideas

You should monetize your hobbies.

ok bangkok founders — if you have a product making actual money and you live here, lmk. trying to start a monthly thing

You can just do tings. (SEO I mean)

I've been having the same experience. Tasks like "go through this entire module and pedantically make it match my preferred styleguide exactly" were not worth a couple dollars with frontier models. It's nice to be able to put deepseek flash on stupid, unnecessary or highly speculative tasks without thinking about the cost.

@jbhuang0604 Is it as good as Opus 4.7?

Keep getting rate-limited by Claude, so I tried out DeepSeek V4 for the first time. After 10M+ tokens, holy crap the cost is ... 🤯

@ky__zo made it easy for you.

@al3rez i'm in this bro, i love it.

clicky hit 1k MRR only 6 days after launching. our conversion flow is heavily unoptimised and we’re still losing money on most of the paying users so the growth from now on should only accelerate. also feels soo good to look at the growing graph 💆‍♂️

@timbo_xyz How's the TrueYou wifi there?

The Bhiraj Tower (EmQuartier) in Phrom Phong, Bangkok has lots of comfortable workspace 🇹🇭 The comfiest seats are right in front of the Roots cafe (super cushion) Anyone know if the coffee at Roots is good? Haven't tried it and this location is closed on weekends Seating is limited but easy access to outlets from any spot Lots of other seating options away from Roots, some comfier than others Lots of background noise from passerbys and chatter during the week Wifi available but I didn't get to test it Easy access via BTS Phrom Phong, accessible inside EmQuartier Aircon blasting during the workweek, super hot on weekends (don't recommend)

@GeorgeLampro20 does rork support end to end publish to App Store yet?

In the Rork era of app building, The people who understand how user experience and how consumers think will blow past any developer.

@Jmoon_174 yup you have to enable the streeing in pi/settings.json though otherwise it'll stop after each session

@al3rez the session id resumption is the useful part. most people restart from scratch every time which kills accumulated context. anything that preserves the thread across invocations is worth the setup cost.

if you're on claude pro or max and want to use pi harness, try rchern/pi-claude-cli it's basically claude -p + claude --resume <session-id> wrapped up
