Car-buying lesson from my recent experience:

Get pre-approved before visiting a dealership.

Negotiate the out-the-door price, not just the vehicle price.

Do not reveal your approved rate too early.

Get the cash deal agreed first, then arrange financing independently.

My dealership advertised one price, added fees and protection products, then tried to move me into higher-rate dealer financing after learning about my direct approval.

I contacted about five banks. Most only offered auto loans through dealerships.

@Coast_Capital was the exception. Their direct process, low fees and clear communication stood out. Radica was patient, transparent and genuinely helpful throughout two applications.

Even though dealer complications prevented the original loan from going through, Coast Capital earned my trust.

Dealerships make money from more than the car. Always review:

OTD price
financing rate
loan type
prepayment terms
documentation fees
protection products
deposit conditions

Pre-approval gives you leverage. Keeping it private gives you more.

@michalmalewicz Hi @michalmalewicz, I love the animations. Can you help describe that animation to an AI? I've been trying to achieve similar effects but can't find the right words to explain it to AI.

@AxisBank is one of the worst banks for NRIs. They don’t care about their customers.

Once you open NRO and NRE accounts with them and go abroad, their mobile app won’t recognise the mobile number you are sending SMS from. If you try to log in via net banking, it asks for a mobile app code.

At this point, you are in a deadlock. All your funds are stuck in the bank but you can’t access them, and none of their customer support numbers work.

Even with multiple people commenting on their videos since one year, they didn’t fix it. This shows they don’t care about their customers.

spent the weekend designing Jordon \u2014 a single home for your docs, memories, contacts, and AI agents.

started from "I'm tired of hunting for files across 10 apps" and ended up here. an early peek at the Knowledge view.

Every hero section I've ever built:

1. Write font-size for desktop
2. Add @media query for tablet
3. Add @media query for mobile
4. Change the copy → redo all 3
5. Change the font → redo all 3
6. Client wants Japanese → cry

I replaced all of that with 5 lines using @chenglou/pretext.

It binary-searches the largest font size that fits your container. Pure math. Zero DOM reflows. Content-aware.

Change the text → it just works.
Resize → it just works.
Any language → it just works.

No more breakpoint font-size whack-a-mole.

The people who have this kind of obsession for providing / building great user experience will survive any era.

The learnings from this product will eventually become founding stone for people who are building with AI as the expectations for better quality will rise in a few years.

I really appreciate for building Mintlify so passionately.

I built Agent Monitor — an open source desktop app that lets you run 20 Claude Code or Codex agents on one screen.

The wild part: any agent can spawn, message, and coordinate other agents through MCP.

Tell one agent "split this across 3 agents" and it actually does it. New nodes appear. They start working.

Browser-style tabs per project. Full markdown chat. Session persistence. Drag-to-reorder grid.

Built with Electron + React + Zustand.

Most companies think AI training = teaching ChatGPT prompts.

The real skill gap? Knowing which business process to automate first.

After training 100+ professionals, the #1 mistake is starting with the flashy use case instead of the painful one.
