@pumfleet @calcom This is long-term the wrong answer, short term exactly the right answer. And I guess you also know this, and that's why it's a genuinely tough decision to make, that's easy to critique. Survive long enough to make it to the other side. Best of luck! 👍

Open source is dead. That’s not a statement we ever thought we’d make. @calcom was built on open source. It shaped our product, our community, and our growth. But the world has changed faster than our principles could keep up. AI has fundamentally altered the security landscape. What once required time, expertise, and intent can now be automated at scale. Code is no longer just read. It is scanned, mapped, and exploited. Near zero cost. In that world, transparency becomes exposure. Especially at scale. After a lot of deliberation, we’ve made the decision to close the core @calcom codebase. This is not a rejection of what open source gave us. It’s a response to what risks AI is making possible. We’re still supporting builders, releasing the core code under a new MIT-licensed open source project called cal. diy for hobbyists and tinkerers, but our priority now is simple: Protecting our customers and community at all costs. This may not be the most popular call. But we believe many companies will come to the same conclusion. My full explanation below ↓

When I posted OverType.dev to HN yesterday, I was thrilled to hit top 10. What I was NOT expecting...??! Getting to #1 on HN with Hyperclay.com today. Someone noticed the note in the footer on OverType and posted it!!! 42 early access signups so far 😲❤️

@damengchen C-corp can defer distributions, and look into FTC for what isn't covered by FEIE. Unless you pay no taxes outside the US you can minimize any impact of this. You have a Delaware C-Corp. You're going to have to file US returns. No reason to be "double taxed" though.

I'm a green card holder living in China. If I make any money in China, I still need to pay US federal and state taxes. Does that make sense?

I love it when people gives me product feedback. Here are the 3 reasons why: 1. As a solo guy, I have no team members to discuss things. When customers provide feedback, it's like having a team telling me what I'm not seeing. 2. Focus. Whenever I get feedback, I know what I need to focus on. Immediately, I know what matters more and what's next on the priority list. 3. Saves time. I get more done after I get feedback b/c of #1 and #2. If you're working on your product alone, how you spend your cycles matters.

@ChristianSelig I was fired from @apple today. I was the designer tasked with replacing that icon with the Reddit app icon and thought "I could do the funniest thing ever"...

Warner Bros. Discovery just re-branded it’s steaming service “Max” back to “HBO Max”. This caps off probably the funniest series of inexplicable logo changes in corporate history.

@VicVijayakumar @davidfowl This is the kind of project I build with .csv import and a calendar reminder to do the .csv export/import, and then what do you know I got emotional one day and figured out how to automate it.

@thekitze I make fun of it but never said that. Although there are definitely more bad electron apps than bad swift apps.

Lol, no. Customer finance team request rejected 🙅 I'm not submitting references to get you to pay an upcoming invoice for a 4-year-old account, for $nnn per year. If the subscription lapses, the account locks when you don't pay the invoice, just like everyone else. Too harsh?

For a chat room? This is just (Ab)using the CDN. But if you considered scaling something like a video livestream using an HLS manifest, things get interesting, right? You could just shove the manifest on the CDN for a majority of users and keep overwriting it.

pmn.blue/chat.html Each response has a Last-Modified header, so it's pretty lean. R2 just seems to be engineered properly so that it seamlessly invalidates in what seems sub-second, round trip, from POST -> Upload -> Invalidation -> CDN responds that the file was modified

Noticing that @Cloudflare R2 is more performant than it needs to be. Might be some uses for that. Built a little chat room to demonstrate. Seems real-time enough, but the current room messages are just a json file behind a CDN in R2. It polls with If-Modified-Since headers.
