Only someone without kids can think like this. Once you have kids you realize that in order to get anything done you have to stop putting an emphasis on how you feel most of the time and just get on with it.

The true, existential risk of this sort of thinking is you can hyper-optimize every waking minute and then suddenly you wake up at 40 and realize you haven’t truly lived a single day of your entire life

@YairDev @Baconbrix This sounds like a skill issue. I’ve been developing with Expo for 5 years and I’ve never seen and issue/bug that would happen in TestFlight only but not locally/on simulator or vice versa.

Appreciate the comment I just had so many different bugs, crashes, that were hard to reproduce, only happened locally and not in testflight, or opposite, I felt like I was fighting with it all the time Overall it just felt very unreliable compared to Swift, and the build times where really long too compared to it For example last app I built I had this weird issue where showing the paywall had this weird flashing and crashes and I tried to solve it for like a day with no success And weird thing is sometimes it happened, sometimes didn't, sometimes removing ios folders and reinstalling helped, but the whole process just felt so brittle I couldn't deal with it anymore 🤷‍♂️ And this happened to me multiple times throughout the years in different occasions

best decision I've done building mobile apps is to use Swift instead of Expo can't even begin to describe how better the experience is

@shersheial @Baconbrix @YairDev Never been that hard and now there is a skill for it. Never been easier with the Expo Claude Skill

@Baconbrix @YairDev I don’t mean to hijack this thread, but for me, it’s updating expo versions

@ProjectGokuu Seems like weak science, and weak anecdotal conclusions drawn. Some countries in the north have long life expectancy without being sunny st all, I dont think Japan is particularly sunny either, also has long life expectancy.

Dorian Yates says people who move from England to sunny Spain live years longer, and it's the sunlight. Yates is a six-time Mr. Olympia who left pale, cloudy England for Spain. He says there is a six to seven year gap in life expectancy between the two countries, and he believes the sun is the reason. On the same podcast, Andrew Huberman backed the mechanism with science. He said sunlight passes deep into your body and charges your mitochondria, the engines inside your cells. Huberman cited research showing that sunlight on your skin can improve your blood sugar control by close to 30%. Yates says we have been sold a lie that the sun, the giver of all life, is bad for us. His rule is simple: get sun, just don't let yourself burn. — Dorian Yates (@Dorian_Yates) on the Huberman Lab (@hubermanlab) podcast.

@recap_david ZERO

I spent 6 months building a zero-person AI newsletter business that is now making $2,000 per month (and I have the receipts to prove it). The business: Spokane Pulse, a local newsletter for the city of Spokane. The team: 4 AI agents. The numbers: 6,000+ subscribers, $2,000+ in ad revenue last month, less than 4 hours of my time per week. I packaged the entire process into a 6 hour course walking you through my exact playbook that can be cloned for any local city of your choosing. Here's what the course actually covers: → How to build the 4-agent team (CEO, Content Director, Growth Engineer, Sales Director) — every prompt, every skill → How to set up the local data scraping pipeline that feeds your newsletter → How to run Facebook ads to grow your subscriber base → How to use Reddit to pull in even more subscribers → How to turn your Instagram into a local events page → How to build the inbound advertising funnel so your agents can close ad deals without you → The exact playbook my Sales Director used to close a $750 deal last week — without me ever picking up the phone This isn't a get-rich-quick thing. You're building a real local media business. But it's a compounding wins business. More subscribers → more valuable list → more ad deals → more reputation in your city. If you're interested, comment "ZERO" below (must be following so I can DM). I'll send you the full curriculum + early-bird link.

@recap_david PULSE

I built a zero-person AI newsletter business that did $2,000+ in revenue last month. No team. No payroll. No freelancers. Just 4 AI agents running the entire operation (and I spend less than 4 hours a week on it). Here's how the system works: → A CEO agent sets the vision and orchestrates every hire → A Growth Engineer scrapes local news, Reddit, and event venues into a daily JSON database → A Content Director reads that database, curates the best events, and writes every Thursday newsletter in my voice → A Sales Director fields every ad lead, generates ad creative with nano banana, and closes deals over email → All orchestrated through Paperclip AI & powered by Claude Code Spokane Pulse (my local newsletter) now has 6,662 subscribers and a 47.5% open rate, almost double the industry average. Local newsletters are quietly printing money. Naptown Scoop does $320K/year. Wichita Life clears six figures. The model is wide open in almost every city, especially when building it in an AI-native way. If you want the full blueprint and step-by-step walkthrough video, Like, RT, and comment "PULSE" (must be following so I can dm you) I'll send you the exact Paperclip AI company export I use to run Spokane Pulse. You can clone it, swap in your city, and ship.

Normal people eating 150-200 grams of protein daily will go down as as big of a disaster as the lead pipes that took down the Roman Empire.

The @theallinpod is the most influential podcast in the tech world. They are obsessed with talking about government grift & corruption. Utterly obsessed. All 4 of them: @chamath, @jason, @davidsacks & @friedberg Their blood boils talking about how California state employees abuse the state pension system. Hardly a show goes by without a rant on how corrupt California's and San Francisco's governments are. Yet they worship at the feet of the most corrupt president in US American history by an order of magnitude. Yet they are true Trump sycophants. How do they manage the cognitive dissonance?

@signulll @Skye Looks great! I would love to beta!

excited to share what we have been up to. your iphone’s home screen hasn’t changed in ~20 years. it’s the same static grid of icons since launch with zero awareness of your actual life. @skye is a new agentic home screen for iphone. no telegram. no mac mini. & no claws required. skye is ambient intelligence that just works. it continuously listens to your context & acts on it. it builds your reading lists, gives you personalized weather, drafts email replies, prepares you for meetings & trips, flags suspicious charges, works through your reminders, tracks your health, & gives you one tap intel on wherever you are (restaurants, museums, neighborhoods, etc). all surfaced on your home screen. over the next few posts i’ll break down how it works, why we built it, & why we think it deserves to exist in the world. beta starts today. if you’re on the list, you’ll get access very soon. app store shortly after. deeply appreciate you all following along on this fun little journey. also please join our discord !

@alexolim_ Followed

@thomas_nylund your inbox is closed, please follow us so that we can DM you the hooks!

After taking dozens of apps to #1 in the App Store, our team went back and analyzed over 100,000 social media posts to trace back what worked We found 34 hooks that brought in 100's of millions of views and more than 300 others proven to go viral.. and turned all of that into templates you can steal for free If you run a consumer app and want: - more installs - higher App Store rankings - content that lands with Gen Z Comment “HOOKS” and I’ll DM you the file.

@faraz_r_khan @waqasali Awair is shit for VOCs

@waqasali How does it do chemicals? Is it a Voc sensor? I have one too but have since found out it’s completely unreliable- is yours somehow reliable?

I’m convinced that something in my house is causing me to get sick. Is there someone I can hire who specializes in finding this out? It’s not black mold or common vocs. Every time I leave for a few days my nose and throat get instantly fixed - only to be scratchy and blocked when I return home. The pattern is too hard to ignore. House is a new construction made in 2019.
