Pete Stewart

I'm currently curious to know, for all building in public, are you using Gamification in product? What are your thoughts and feelings about Gamification? Are you aware of the Octalysis Framework by Yu-kai Chou? #buildinpublic #octalysisbook #SaaS

@X Thanks everyone! I managed to zoom past 300! 400 here we come!

I've almost hit 300! 🥳 Anyone on @X want to follow my building in public journey, please follow me now! 🚀 #buildinpublic #SaaS

@gitsouv @X That sounds very cool! I've always wanted to be able to time travel! What's the app called?

@pj_stew @X Fellow builder here. I'm building an iOS app that will allow users to travel in time and see themselves in different eras. Open to connect!

@gezimqaili I'm definitely a before 8am, although I have in the past been the other way around, and coding through the night .

some do their best work at 2am others ship before 8am when do you do your best work?

@CodeAndBusiness @X 🥳 did it! Thanks! 🙏

@pj_stew @X Congratulations 👏🏻

@rahulsinghh__ @X Great! I look forward to seeing what you're building! 🚀

@pj_stew @X Let's connect, Pete. I'm also building in public for the last few months.

@Gelassoldat @X Thanks, still two off unfortunately! Sadly didn't work to get me over the line! 😂

@pj_stew @X Well done :)

@X If you're already following me, you're very welcome to share this instead! 😄

@cviklihamar Thanks! If you want to get early access to Achene, you can join the early access list, and you will get free trial when it starts and huge reduction on the subscription if you decided to use it long-term. achene.app

@pj_stew love that every Achene course starts as just a draft title and cover, that lowest-friction starting point is exactly what gets people to actually begin instead of overthinking. removing the blank-page paralysis is huge. 🙌 following along, lets connect!

Every Achene course starts as a draft: title, description, cover image, price, all editable while nobody but you can see it. Publish only when it's actually ready, no half-finished course landing in front of students by accident. #buildinpublic #indiehackers #SaaS

@CodeWithTamara Jokes aside, it's also pretty creepy! And not great that there are people like this following and approaching women on X... Hope your ok and not too creeped out by this.

@pj_stew 😂

Well then, this is new. Not sure how I feel about this 🤣

@samueljmcd Well done! I'm nearly at 300, but that's a big change from where a was last month! Keep up the good work! 💯

Passed 1300 followers today!! Growing really fast 💨 Such a pleasure to meet all my new connections here. Everyone is so interesting and motivated. Newcomers always welcome! Appreciate the support 🫶

@devops_prashant Cloudflare Workers all the way! I've used all the other, too, but Cloudflare have nailed it.

Which deployment platform is your go-to? :) Vercel :) Netlify :) AWS :) Railway :) Render :) DigitalOcean :) Heroku :) Cloudflare Pages

This seems totally nuts and has already shifted the whole bug bounty world! Do you feel any software is currently safe! It's great seeing genuinely ethical security researchers, such as yourself using these models, but now there's little to no bar for others who may not have the same ethics! 😬 I felt a few years back that the internet was worryingly insecure, and that's before these new models came about! What are your thoughts?

It's so fun just spinning around in my chair, trying to think of funny targets for Fable. I'd asked Opus 4.8 to find an RCE in MobaXterm yesterday, and it did, but things really did just become so accessible so quickly. I could have never written an exploit for this before today.

@CodeWithTamara So true! It's just a fast track to legacy code! The amount of time I've spent over the years refactoring old code, it's a pleasure to work on Greenfield projects, but AI can quickly make new legacy code! 😂

AI coding tools didn’t make software development easier. They made it possible to build the wrong thing much faster. The bottleneck was never typing the code. It was knowing what should exist.

@authorityvortex How did you decide which to clear out, and how did you do it?

I removed 300 followers today, I think two left by themselves. Why? To clean up my profile. I think a bot network followed me and a lot of spam in general. Curious to see how this affects reach and engagement as those spam accounts may have liked plenty. This is it btw, I'm not going to remove more unless I attract new spam.

@stejas809 Let connect. I'm working on achene.app an online teaching platform that has a fairer pricing model. Building in public, so please feed back if this is something you want!

Hey founders ! Looking to connect with people building in: 🍽️ SaaS .. 🚀 Tech .. 📲 Automation.. 🧠 AI tools .. 📱 Product Development .. . 🔥 Web APP .. 💻 Devs.. Drop what you’re working on

This is such a good question! It's not just what turns you away, but what makes you actually sign-up. For example, if there's a free email sign-up or free access, how come few people actually sign up!? I find myself leaving pages where I like the look of the product and there is a free CTA, but for some reason I still don't do it... Not sure what makes me sign up or not, though.

what makes you immediately leave a SaaS landing page? A. unclear headline B. fake testimonials C. too much text D. no visible pricing
