@2001_atharva Kudos, what’s your source of data? Is it a Manual pipeline?

I vibe coded a product which gets public rental listings from Facebook and puts them on a map.
So you can ask questions like-
"Show me 2BHKs close to Embassy Golf Links Business Park, furnished and under 30k. "
And it will put those listings on a map, give you travel times, nearby places and so much more.
I have always wanted something like this, so built it.
Try it out at fastflats.in
No paywall for now.

Open source is dead.
That’s not a statement we ever thought we’d make.
@calcom was built on open source. It shaped our product, our community, and our growth. But the world has changed faster than our principles could keep up.
AI has fundamentally altered the security landscape. What once required time, expertise, and intent can now be automated at scale. Code is no longer just read. It is scanned, mapped, and exploited. Near zero cost.
In that world, transparency becomes exposure. Especially at scale.
After a lot of deliberation, we’ve made the decision to close the core @calcom codebase.
This is not a rejection of what open source gave us. It’s a response to what risks AI is making possible.
We’re still supporting builders, releasing the core code under a new MIT-licensed open source project called cal. diy for hobbyists and tinkerers, but our priority now is simple:
Protecting our customers and community at all costs.
This may not be the most popular call.
But we believe many companies will come to the same conclusion.

@kartiks08 I'd be very happy if this turns out true value like the era when webflow did to designing complex landing pages versus wix/weebly.

Hey, I'm Kartik.
CEO of Creatr.
We just raised $1.2M to bankrupt every vibe-coding tool.
And I want to tell you exactly why they deserve it:
Every day, hundreds of business owners try to build their "next big software" on vibe coding tools:
1) Prompt for 2 months.
2) Demo works great.
3) Test it on 100 people (instead of 2)
4) It breaks.
5) Re-prompt.
> "Fix the errors, make no mistakes"
> (broke two more things)
Six hours later - a half-working product held together by luck and the prayer that nobody touches the wrong button.
So you think about going to an agency, but that takes $20K & 6 month delivery time.
So me and my CTO figured there has to be a better way than this.
Because there was, and is NOTHING in between.
No tool that asked the right questions before building.
No tool that one-shotted a product - with roles, integrations, approval flows - and let you edit instead of rebuild from scratch every time.
So we decided to build it.
Client example we helped with Creatr:
A bike loan company in the Philippines runs nine user roles and a full loan management system on Creatr.
They tried to vibe code a custom system but gave up after 2,5 months of trial and error with no actual outcome.
We built in three days.
And believe it or not:
Despite it being 2026, there are millions of businesses that are stuck on spreadsheets and outdated software they want to upgrade, but can't.
THAT'S why we raised from top VC's in the industry.
And THAT'S why we're coming for ALL vibe coding tools.
Follow along for more.

the internet is filled with everyone teaching everything about every last hour trend. It’s so drastically filled with “you know what I found today” instead of “you know what I did today”. This accompanies everyone into the abyss of fragmented delusions

every major company laid off masses in the name of llms. cut to six months - reality hits harder. rehiring begins. entry level jobs face the price. 5 years from now there's very small count of "filtered" experienced juniors. the job pipeline is broken.

sorry bro opus is dumb. im done with ai slop. i nearly dont want to look into or hear anything that includes ai.
okay, it's an advanced indexing tool to find hidden knowledge in fraction of secs.
okay, it's gonna serve mankind.
apart from that, i like my fellow humans.

@kunalb11 There existed a friction of security pin input, they made pin-less for few small payments. Thus driving user exp smooth.
Now Cred’s team recalled the same friction that caused itch in the ux, made a video on it as if some remarkable feature had been done and called it a day🫠

🚨 Andrej Karpathy just explained the scariest thing happening in software right now..
someone poisoned a Python package that gets 97 million downloads a month.. and a simple pip install was enough to steal everything on your machine..
SSH keys.. AWS credentials.. crypto wallets.. database passwords.. git credentials.. shell history.. SSL private keys.. everything..
and here's the part that should terrify every developer alive..
the attack was only discovered because the attacker wrote sloppy code.. the malware used so much RAM that it crashed someone's computer.. if the attacker had been better at coding.. nobody would have noticed for weeks..
one developer.. using Cursor with an MCP plugin.. had litellm pulled in as a dependency they didn't even know about.. their machine crashed.. and that crash saved thousands of companies from getting their entire infrastructure stolen..
Karpathy's take is the real wake up call.. every time you install any package you're trusting every single dependency in its tree.. and any one of them could be poisoned..
vibe coding saved us this time.. the attacker vibe coded the attack and it was too sloppy to work quietly.. next time they won't make that mistake.

Software horror: litellm PyPI supply chain attack. Simple `pip install litellm` was enough to exfiltrate SSH keys, AWS/GCP/Azure creds, Kubernetes configs, git credentials, env vars (all your API keys), shell history, crypto wallets, SSL private keys, CI/CD secrets, database passwords. LiteLLM itself has 97 million downloads per month which is already terrible, but much worse, the contagion spreads to any project that depends on litellm. For example, if you did `pip install dspy` (which depended on litellm>=1.64.0), you'd also be pwnd. Same for any other large project that depended on litellm. Afaict the poisoned version was up for only less than ~1 hour. The attack had a bug which led to its discovery - Callum McMahon was using an MCP plugin inside Cursor that pulled in litellm as a transitive dependency. When litellm 1.82.8 installed, their machine ran out of RAM and crashed. So if the attacker didn't vibe code this attack it could have been undetected for many days or weeks. Supply chain attacks like this are basically the scariest thing imaginable in modern software. Every time you install any depedency you could be pulling in a poisoned package anywhere deep inside its entire depedency tree. This is especially risky with large projects that might have lots and lots of dependencies. The credentials that do get stolen in each attack can then be used to take over more accounts and compromise more packages. Classical software engineering would have you believe that dependencies are good (we're building pyramids from bricks), but imo this has to be re-evaluated, and it's why I've been so growingly averse to them, preferring to use LLMs to "yoink" functionality when it's simple enough and possible.

He’s not kidding.
Took me HALF AN HOUR to vibe code Gmail with Opus 4.6.

is there any gate keeping mechanism that will prevent model autophagy / model collapsing due to recursive learning that might result in comming 2-3 years since the web is already filled with AI slop.
