Day 1: Building PrismCX in public. 🚀 Helpdesks suck for small teams: too pricey or messy. After 10 yrs startups, fixing my pains. PrismCX: Clear ticket owners (no "who's on this?"), real-time team views, minutes to setup, AI for grunt work (humans shine). #BuildInPublic #SaaS

@Yuchenj_UW I hear you, it's really annoying. Fortunately, there's an option to disable this per project or for all projects. You can do it in the project settings.json or user level settings.json. You can even ask Cloud Code to do it for you. But yeah, it was not a fun surprise.

I noticed something interesting: Claude Code auto-adds itself as a co-author on every git commit. Codex doesn’t. That’s why you see Claude everywhere on GitHub, but not Codex. I wonder why OpenAI is not doing that. Feels like an obvious branding strategy OpenAI is skipping.

Just a thought, if you see AI in a product tagline. Are you going to checkout that product because of that or are you more likely to skip it? #BuildInPublic #IndieHacker

Had to upgrade my #ClaudeCode subscription to MAX. It was just too strange orienting your day around it's daily and weekly limits. Though, I'm happy to see we now also have 1M token context as of today. That should really remove some of the bottlenecks. #BuildInPublic

"Are you sure?" is a liability shield. Showing impact is actual protection. How do you handle destructive actions in your products?

For the most critical actions, you type the name to confirm. Not because I don't trust you. Because the friction is the feature.

Every app has a "delete" button somewhere. And most put a generic "Are you sure?" dialog in front of it. That dialog does nothing. People click through it on autopilot. 😅

Barely into using Claude Code for two weeks and already the rate limits are kicking my ass. I can't do my work around some daily and weekly limits. Gonna have to upgrade the plan, aren't I? 🤦‍♂️ How is everyone else managing? Or did y'all upgrade? #BuildInPublic #ClaudeCode

@alexcloudstar I have heard many horror stories like this. That's why I'm starting without a free tier. Though, did you try giving users a trial for your paid plans? That should be enough to give them an idea of what you offer without becoming a burden.

Just had 3 brutal days. Card declines. Subscription cancellations. Free users burning through resources while I pay the bills. The math doesn't work anymore. Makers Page is going back to $5/month. No free tier. Effective immediately. Sometimes you have to choose survival

Well, there went all the tokens I was saving to use over the weekend for my project. Almost 50%! 🤦‍♂️ One week into using Claude Code. And, not enjoying having to manage my work around token limits. Especially if they are going to be changed on a whim.
Thariq@trq212

We've reset rate limits for all Claude Code users. Yesterday we rolled out a bug with prompt caching that caused usage limits to be consumed faster than normal. This is hotfixed in 2.1.62. Make sure you upgrade to the latest and hope you enjoy using Claude Code this weekend!

The hardest thing to come to terms with as a solo founder with a technical background is that building is, believe it or not, the easy part. What's really going to drive you up the wall is marketing, also known as distribution. Have a plan for it, and execute on it from day 1.

While the whole internet seems to be busy dunking on them right now, and for good reason. It couldn't happen to a better bunch of people. Let's not forget what this really is: signaling for the politicians so they can regulatory capture the market.

We’ve identified industrial-scale distillation attacks on our models by DeepSeek, Moonshot AI, and MiniMax. These labs created over 24,000 fraudulent accounts and generated over 16 million exchanges with Claude, extracting its capabilities to train and improve their own models.

@dev_guid Sounds nice! I'm sure I'll hear about it from being on the waitlist when you launch. Since you are building landing pages and more as a product. Would love it if you could give me some feedback for prismcx.com.

Thank you man! The landing as website, link page and ecommerce will be avaiable for all kind of business, from personal trainer to doctors studio. My client will just choose the package, the business, the language, the template and will get already that one with some relative details ready to be replaced with the real one 😎

Had my last tweet kinda really blow up. Did I use it to plug myself or my products as everyone does here? 🤔 No! 😞 Was it smart not too? I don't know. 🤷‍♂️ What would you have done? #BuildingInPublic #indiehackers #SaaS

@dev_guid Will do! Btw, just signed up to the waitlist. Looks interesting. Though, the landing page didn't make it clear who the product is for. What kind of customers are you targeting?

@dev_guid I hear you, but it did not feel right to be forced to mention other people again who were mentioned in the OG post as I plugged something. If it could have been done with it, I would have. But it felt disrespectful.

@ubax honestly would've plugged something subtle in the replies, viral tweets don't happen often. maybe just a soft mention when people ask follow ups

@ETazou @opencode @thdxr It's not about the features; it's about the user experience. Also, having the entire UI glitch on me was a nice effect. Made me feel part of the club.

First time using Claude Code since I wanted to checkout Opus 4.6. But man does it's UX feels so basic compared to @opencode. How is it that a small group of people like @thdxr have been able to beat such giants with almost infinite resources? Boggles the mind!🥴
