@jessethanley pls just add inbound email processing so I can ditch Postmark 🥹

I try to avoid being a doomer, but I do feel immense pressure to have my product conform to the new way of working in a way I haven’t felt before. Organic traffic is no longer a distribution strategy, customers don’t want to login anymore, you need to have a CLI/MCP or customers will go elsewhere, our AI features need to be updated weekly and one-shot the most random requests… Your company is at risk if you don’t move fast enough. I’m embracing it but I understand why people are anxious. It’s never ending.

@NinoSkopac @limesten @DarrenJSmith @mddanishyusuf It looks like Green Hill Place (I think) maps.app.goo.gl/S5iEiSkiBaMXnQ…

@limesten @DarrenJSmith @mddanishyusuf I’m wondering, which building this is. Looks really nice

Da Nang, Vietnam is unbelievably affordable 🇻🇳 For just $15/night, I get: 🌊 Sea-facing hotel 🍳 Free breakfast buffet ⚡ Fast Wi-Fi 🏋️ Gym & 🏊 Pool access ❄️ 24/7 AC I control myself 🛏️ Well-maintained room with a working desk. I think Vietnam is better than Bali. Move to Vietnam and lock yourself in to build your million-dollar idea.

@patio11 @Wise thank you Patrick for the advice. I'll push and simultaneously hope that the gears are actually turning somewhere.

@perryroper @Wise It gets much more difficult after the window is over so I’d push them to investigate and reverse quickly in your case. (Though sometimes “We are not sure” is cover for a process running more than it is true uncertainty.)

@patio11 maybe one that you can shed some light on: why do US bank account numbers seemingly not use Luhn check digits? Looking like I just lost $1600 via @Wise because I typed a 6 instead of a 7 at the end of an account number. Also no recipient name checks. Seems mad.

@patio11 @Wise makes sense, everything does need to be invented. raised it with my bank (in Thailand) 72 hours after realising the mistake, but they use a 3rd party to actually do the ACH, so they are unsure. looks like it was instantly sent to the wrong account complete with push notification

@perryroper @Wise (Ask their CS if they can reverse the transfer; it’s possible during a window.) Broadly: some banks use them but others don’t, can’t impose/rely on uniformity, everything needs to be invented and some banks accounts in continuous use are older than Luhn, etc.

@JesseSchoberg stuck with math because I use Safari 😅

@perryroper so you're doing the math or using Willo's plugin? :)

In Thailand and having trouble figuring out the dates in Google Search results? My friend @WilloLovesYou spun up a little chrome/ff extension to save the day!

@JesseSchoberg tried this before, but quickly gave up on it. it changes the results to be relevant to that region. made results 100% less useful haha.

Oh wait.. actually you can just change the Region settings from "Current Region" to US (or whatever) in google and it solves this at the root. google.com/preferences?hl…

@JesseSchoberg @WilloLovesYou great name!

@wenbinf sounds like FraudLabs fraudlabspro.com

#startupidea an api to evaluate user risk for website owners. - inputs: ip, email, domain, user agent, payment method, past bad behaviors (e.g., chargeback abuse). - outputs: json with risk score + specific risks website owners could block bad users before it's too late

@KyleScotShank and they've just killed it! 🥲

The hardest part about leaving Meta has been not having access to Workplace. It is - hands down - the best software I have ever used to scale knowledge/technical work vertically and horizontally across an entire organization. It's a shame it's not used more widely.

@dhh @jasonfried New Campfire customers incoming! FB/Meta's business chat that we've paid thousands of dollars for will cease to exist and everything will be deleted. Because reasons.

@lewisking hope all is okay, speedy recovery!

Nothing like waving goodbye to your very pregnant wife as you’re wheeled away into an operating theatre to put life in perspective 😳

@_kejk Liking the app so far! Can you prevent the phone from sleeping when in a workout? Was kinda annoying having to keep unlocking the phone

Update round two. Fixes initial template day setting when you have none set. Shows Completed when you’re done. Calories messaging now only shows if you have data in Health. Summary shows reps you completed for the highest weight, and weight you completed for the highest reps.

@Lukas_Kae @dvassallo @Hetzner_Online No Asia Pacific options

@dvassallo @Hetzner_Online Why? What do you miss? The most feedback we got was exactly the opposite :)

DigitalOcean is how the cloud should have been. You choose a $64/mo server, and at the end of the month you get charged $64. No NAT_GATEWAY_EGRESS_INTER_REGION nonsense fees.

@jasonfried Hey Jason, do you remember which tool you used to make the "static" star graphic in this post? Such a great concept, would love to recreate it. medium.com/signal-v-noise…

@helloitsolly fyi 😅

@Timb03 Gotcha. How about raise the base price keep add-ons where they are/slight bump? Or add a new tier? Free/$19 (at +$4 just raise for everyone, very few will care)/$49

@perryroper True, it's $15/mo per social set though so a agency might have 50 for example.

Pricing is hard. Pallyy's pricing is $15/mo. Increasing it to $20 would get me over $1M ARR. Things are going well though, is it worth it...?

@Timb03 If you want to avoid drama with existing customers, you can always just grandfather them in on the old pricing. Change the price for any new customers to $49/mo. Still incredible value at that price point, especially as you said you’re constantly adding new features.

@Timb03 $15 seems cheap for a business tool. Your pricing page says it’s for “social media agencies with multiple brands”. If that’s who your customers are, that’s a complete steal at $15. You could easily 2/3/4x that price.
