What hosting do you use for your projects? - Vercel - Cloudflare - Netlify

@floriandarroman Docker images, docker cache, docker builds, etc., also all go in there.

Can someone explains me WTF is System Data on Mac? 588 GB. It eats all my storage and this is not my cache, I checked and I have max 40GB of cache in my Library.

Are you a founder or indie builder? Describe yourself in 5 words 👇 Let’s connect 🤝

@mariyav4leva @Guronnimo "Are you a founder or a builder?" Neither of those. "Hi, im a founder of... "

None of those but I believe I can build some valuable connections here so here we go Hey founders, Mariya Valeva here fractional CFO and founder of FounderFirst I've spent 13 years inside startups helping founders own the financial logic I've lasted: - 2 hypergrowth journeys, 4 pivots - 3 near-bankruptcies, 1 exit - 70+ founders in the portfolio since I write about building, founder journey, cash, growth, the messy middle, and the conversations founders avoid until they're too expensive to ignore My goal is to sprint to 10k by end of year if you're building and posting about it on X you're welcome to connect.

@thearslaniqbal "Shipping". Ok. So you build an app, a product. Then what? You think users magically appear?

@pgerrits Validation takes a weekend too. Then you've done nothing. Shipping teaches faster.

I think people should start validating first and then start shipping. At least I think I should do that before spending a weekend building something. What do you think?

@sudoingX Just because you use it like that does not make it true. So what is the exact thing that cursor brings? Because you can run Opus and ChatGPT 5.5 in there as well.

saying this out loud again. codex and claude code are for vibe coding. cursor is for actual software development. i've used all three across real workloads. right now i'm spending most of my cursor credits REWORKING things codex and claude code shipped that didn't hold up. vibe coding feels productive in the moment. then someone has to maintain the code. that's where the gap shows up. cursor's harness catches material misses the other two ship as "done."

@vaaselene I'm experimenting with it on one of my products, not too found of it right now. But it has only been a week.

anyone tried 'vibe marketing'? How does it work? does it even work?

@jturntdev I'm getting errors as well. Also, I run Hermes using Codex, no longer working. 500 errors (could also be something else)

Codex continues to degrade in real time. ChatGPT 5.5 is either been nerfed or under compute capacity constraints. Responses are taking forever, it feels like Claude Code all over again. That magic that 5.5 had, has gone. Just me?

@DavidOndrej1 Does $0.0005 count?

if you're not spending 5+ figures on OpenRouter... you're not gonna make it

@DanielSmidstrup 🫡

If you're under 1,000 followers on X: - Post every single day - Professional profile picture - Clear bio: who you are - Daily replies: 50+ per day - Make new connections daily Show up, bring value, work hard, and then do it again. Why do this? Simple, compounds and builds opportunity.

@tibo_maker Tibo, never sell shares in your personal holding company. Your holding is 100% yours. When you want to sell shares, sell them in a company below it, or you should place something above. You 100%-> holding -> 80% business, and the 20% is hold by someone else.

who would be interested in buying share of my holding company? not just a single product but the entire portfolio collectively they do $1m / month with very decent margin you should not look for a quick exit more for growth and dividends

@tech__unicorn @atmoio Didn't I react to you yesterday that it's becoming a religion?

quitting my job at Palantir to join Anthropic as a spiritual alignment researcher

@supabase Sorry, Codex/Claude doesn't understand this. Can you please post in Markdown format from now on?

If you are using getUser() in your codebase, in most cases you can replace them with getClaims() to speed up your app and reduce DB loads.

@floriandarroman What if your customers stand close to the baggage belt at the airport, not giving room to others? Do you still talk to them?

Every $100K+/mo founders I met did this one thing:

@bengold @OpenAI What did you watch.....

UM EXCUSE ME!?!?! WTF @OpenAI

@sudobunni Oh it isnt just me?

I'll never forgive whoever broke spotlight search

@ThePrimeagen Yeah, that left pinky is gross! Gotta trim that pinky bro!

I think I have too much hair

@kapilansh_twt Where is the MacBook? Honest reaction: I think you are missing a keyboard, mouse, monitor, and coffee machine.

hey devs and founders is this enough to build a $10k/month SaaS ?

@pcshipp You are kidding, right? No, for real...

I launched my SaaS 3 days ago and it’s still stuck at $0 revenue Huge respect to this guy he didn’t even complete 1 full day after launch and already made $20K Honestly, I was depressed about my own revenue. but this gave me a little boost Ship or die is booming ...
