CS graduates realizing they spent $30k to compete with a $20 monthly AI subscription.



✨ To inspire more people to go build something now that we have AI to help us (especially non-tech people, cause I still know so many who are scared of building something): I added a [ BUILD IT ] button to IdeasAI.com It's like a mini-Lovable/Replit/v0: Any idea you see you like, you can click [ BUILD IT ], and it will use Opus 4.6 to build a landing page for it And then you can download the code it generated It's not a full startup of course, but a nice preview of what it can be, to give you an idea and inspire you to build it out further The code is live streamed also so you can see it being built 😊 Ironically this itself took me 1 hour to build with AI too Completely free and I pay for the tokens (please don't abuse it :D)





✨ To prove my friend @StevieZollo (who's visiting me in Brazil) you don't need an idea, or even a lot of time these days to ship a little app that might make money I took the top idea from IdeasAI.com: "A startup that uses AI to generate personalized bedtime stories for kids based on their interests, family photos, and daily activities, delivered via a voice app. (❤️ 110 likes, 3 days ago)" So I copy pasted it into Claude Code and asked it to build it The first version of course didn't work, and I had to tell it some endpoints didn't work properly but then it fixed it The bedtime stories are generated by @xAI Grok 4.1, then sent to TTS with @GoogleAI Gemini and payment with @Stripe Checkout Total time from start to live: 24 minutes



7 days ago I shipped SoloSlack v1.0. It was scrappy. It worked. Barely. Today I'm shipping v2.0. Here's what changed 👇 BEFORE → a notes editor and a kanban board. NOW → 🗒️ Notes that link to each other [[wiki-style]] 📋 Kanban with templates, checklists & WIP limits 📅 Calendar view for cards by due date 🔍 Full-text search across notes + boards (⌘K) 📊 Dashboard — stats, activity feed, due-soon cards 🌗 Light/dark mode, focus mode, keyboard shortcuts 🔗 Notes linked directly to kanban cards Same promise as v1.0: Open source. Self-hosted. Free forever. No subscriptions. No logins. Your data stays yours. If you starred v1 — thank you. This one's for you. ⭐ github.com/imshreekumarOP… #BuildInPublic #OpenSource #IndieHacker #SoloMaker





AI writes your code in 30 seconds. You spend 3 hours debugging what it wrote. You could have written it yourself in 45 minutes. But that would require thinking and we don't do that anymore apparently.
