I just wrote my first book 📚
I talk about failing for 7 years, depression, and negative thoughts. It's not really sexy, but I want to share the things that don't go viral on social media.
It's free. Please let me know if you enjoy it, that means a lot to me 😊

I'm selling my body.
On September 19th, I'm competing in my first HYROX race in Turkey.
You can advertise your startup on 10 of my muscles:
- Your website is listed on https://t.co/49RnsFBVzP
- Your logo will be tattooed on my body on race day
- I'll share it on my YouTube and X accounts
Bidding starts at $1,000.
Each takeover doubles the price: $1,000 → $2,000 → $4,000.
If outbid, you’re refunded minus the Stripe fee.
Bidding closes on Thursday the 10th at midnight UTC (in 2 days), so I have enough time to print the winning tattoos.

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down

Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
Thanks for reading. We will do a global reset of the usage for all paid subscriptions so that you can keep enjoying Astra after burning through all of it doing fun 3D modeling in blender. The work week is about to start.
Lands around 6pm PST today.
Origin, our code hosting platform, is now live.
It's fast, easy to use, and deeply integrated with Cursor.
Get started by syncing your repos from GitHub.
T3 Code is now available on iOS and Android.
Run “npx t3 connect” in your terminal, install the app, and now you can control Claude and Codex fully remotely.
Still 100% free. Still 100% open source. Enjoy 🫡

making an app with a buy button is super easy nowadays, the hard part is marketing it...
so me and my best french friend @marclou built an app that feeds you to the sharks if you don't do marketing
introducing: MARKETING OR DIE
4 ways to do marketing, each with a 30 day guided roadmap to actually get you to do it.
- short form content (by me)
- SEO (by @illyism)
- paid Ads (by @nico_jeannen)
- viral launching (by marc)
pick your marketing channel and try it for your product, keep marketing until you find what works. if you fail to give a valid effort? you will be kicked forever and publicly called out.
each marketing mission has its own set of milestones so we can verify if you did the work, or if you procrastinated on doing marketing (again).
P.S. this whole thing started cause 2 months ago we launched @shipordie_ where 293 people shipped, 36 got thrown overboard, and 57 earned their first $1
however me and marc felt something was missing, a very KEY PART after shipping... getting people aware that you exist (by doing marketing).
P.P.S we also have some HUGE AWESOME NEWS: ship or die is now sponsored by @stripe !!! :D so cool

Hey Nico,
It looks like you didn't vibe code your data room but stole it from Papermark's open source and enterprise-licensed code.
We demand you take this copyright and license infringing product down immediately.
It's not moving fast and breaking things, it's fraud.
It makes the rest of your business questionable and the YC community look terrible.

I documented my SaaS journey to $20K MRR.
It took 512 days.
I got excited, I cried, I laughed, I lost hope. I got literally every moment on camera.
This video is the raw story of what building a startup actually feels like.
I made an app to fix my terrible posture.
It uses my MacBook Pro camera to watch me work.
When AI detects that I’m sitting like a shrimp 🦐, it sends me a notification with a preview of my posture so I can reposition myself.
Everything stays local. It works offline too.

And because apparently my brain only responds to fake rewards, I added XP: good posture makes my shrimp evolve (currently level 7).
483 days ago, I built my own web analytics out of frustration.
I was using Plausible and loved its simplicity, but I felt stuck. Pageviews are nice, but they don’t tell you what makes money.
So I built my dream tool: connect Stripe to traffic, and see where revenue actually comes from, so I can double down.
Almost nobody cared.
It took 120 days to reach $1k MRR.
But I didn't mind. I was having fun.
I shipped 117,869 lines of code to build features I needed myself.
My only KPI was (and still is) features shipped.
Slowly, word of mouth kicked in, and the SaaS started growing on its own.
16 months later:
- $17K MRR
- 983 paying customers
- 1.2B pageviews tracked
I wanted to quit many times. I’m competing with giants and VC-backed startups, in an overcrowded market, for a vitamin product.
What changed everything was niching down: building ultra-specific features for my own problems and hoping others had the same ones.
I don’t really do marketing. Most users come from word of mouth.
But today is special. I never truly launched @DataFast_, so I made this video to finally do it. Hope you like it!
