Hot take: No-code tools are a tech debt generator. You're trading engineering cost today for migration cost tomorrow and tomorrow's bill is always bigger

It’s been 2 weeks since we launched A.Cafe (currently Wobbles Cafe). In that time we’ve already hit 85,000+ views on Instagram (52,000+ from a single video about how to get into #YC) and seen real conversion. Many of our customers found us through social media and came to the cafe the same week. We’ve hosted an engaging YC alumni talk on compounding workflows and a sold out morning build session with @AITinkerers. What started as an idea 3 weeks ago is now a running cafe for builders and founders, with a brand that grows stronger every day. Come by one morning, Monday through Friday, 8am to 11am. Follow us on Instagram @ A.CafeNYC #Startup #Brand #Marketing #SocialMedia

@bangerz Yayy!

@jpk0x0 miss you Joe! I’m coming back. See you at the end of the month :D

my friends, i have missed you so deeply every morning, night, fortnight i have suffered in your absence i mourned the death of ct, of our special pocket of abnormal individuals so with great elation i pronounce: we are SO BACK.

Experiment: I want to buy two tickets to England vs. Argentina and give it to a Wobbles holder. See the view and seats below. How should this work? To submit an entry: A) lock 100,000 wobbles in @streamflow_fi for 1yr post and tag me proof B) Hold 10k wobbles inside the jelly app and post proof and tag @jellyvideochats C) Post a jelly and get people to pay that video with wobbles, any amount? D) all of the above 4x entries per person At least 1k people have to do it for the lottery to take place. Leave a comment on if this should or can happen or if there’s any interest.

@renegadegenesis Words of wisdom right there

The older you get, the more you realize: – Alchohol isn’t worth it – Gym is therapy – Sleep is luxury – Startups are peak – Corporate is mid

GLM thinks its Claude?

@leonishuang So the solution is to have the whole team share one login instead of giving each person their own account? That's really bad for security

I got tired of being my team's human authenticator app. 2am codes. Codes during dinner. Codes on vacation. Every login triggers a fresh 2FA to my phone. UniOps ends it. Log in once. Your team uses those sessions in their own browser. Zero codes. Zero interruptions. Forever.

If you missed the Zig/Bun drama, here's a recap.

@Sousinr Wish this was true in real life. Running an actual startup is many times expensive than this

If you want to build a startup: Claude = coding. ($20/mo) Supabase = backend. (Free) Vercel = deploying. (Free) Namecheap = domain. ($12/yr) Stripe = payments. (2.9%/transaction) GitHub = version control. (Free) Resend = emails. (Free) Clerk = auth. (Free) Cloudflare = DNS. (Free) PostHog = analytics. (Free) Sentry = error tracking. (Free) Upstash = Redis. (Free) Pinecone = vector DB. (Free) Total monthly cost to run a startup: ~$21

@nicotwtss It means the opposite. Strong fundamentals means you have the ability to tell when an AI is wrong

why are companies still writing “must have strong fundamentals” when the fundamentals are now just knowing which ai output to trust

@Anas_founder Anas AI

I need a cool startup name that sounds like it just raised $500M.🤔

@pcshipp Wait for them to graduate and get a job?

I have 1200+ active users but 95% are students. How do I convert those users into paying users?

@rihntv Good old times 😭

At my peak, I had: No debt, amazing sleep schedule, ideal weight, no stress, and zero alcohol. I was 9.

@kail_designs There’s a line between inspiration and replication. Recreating an existing product feature for feature, then using greater reach to overshadow the original isn’t innovation. YC companies should be held to a higher standard

Btw this rabbit hole goes deeper and is a lot crazier than just ripping off my one tool. So grab some popcorn🍿 I found out they have stole from a lot of free and paid libraries and directly create a page under the creator's name (without their permission) and start listing components under their name. A lot of creators/profiles don't even know they are listed on the platform. How is this even legal? How are they calling it a community platform when most the profiles are created by their own "team"? (refer video) And what's worse is they even have paid templates listed. Though I'm not sure if they are redistributing them and making money off those without the knowledge of the original creator or not. So folks who have templates (free/paid), those with UI libraries, any components, tools, etc. Please go and check if they have Again I was not planning on making this post, but I literally had many people message me this was happening, so I had to draw attention to it. And for the people who come up saying this is Legally allowed..No it is not. Lot of these folks literally have licenses which prohibit this. And you can just create community profiles of teams/creators by yourself and have the team "claim the profile". More details in the thread👇
