beehiiv just crossed $2M MRR

but most founders are still stuck trying to generate their first $100K

to celebrate the milestone I’m going to try something new…

I’m sharing the exact playbook we used in the early days (10 simple tactics)

hope this helps someone:

[Tyler Denk 🐝 @denk_tweets]

we just unveiled the biggest product updates in @beehiiv history at our first ever winter release event

this isn’t just another platform update — it’s an entirely new operating system for the content economy

I can’t wait to see what you build next 😈

[Tyler Denk 🐝 @denk_tweets]

new @beehiiv website just dropped 👀

TIL that GPT-4o sucks at date comparisons.

I'm working on a contract building AI tools in Commercial Real Estate and OpenAI's gpt-4o cannot gauge the date correctly.

It keeps saying things like, "Today is 01/15/2025, which is after February 1, 2025"

Anyone know a fix?

@VivekGRamaswamy I guess all these wildly successful STEM graduates only go into endeavors that improve humanity. Surely they aren't wasting their immense talents in Silicon Valley or Wall Street to just make money while contributing little to nothing to society, right?

This sounds like it's straight out of Idiocracy

This was the lamest thing I have seen in a long time. I figured they would just put on a show but dude where is the show?? #PaulTyson

@AndreiHudovich I enjoy lifting and running so much more since I started doing hot yoga.

[Atilla Tuna Sogut @ats237]

Can't wait!

@ChanningAllen So you're saying you feel like this

[Atilla Tuna Sogut @ats237]

@AlphaSignalAI I read about this method in a random reddit comment months ago and implemented/tested the same day. Really did boost performance and only took a couple hours to code using pgvector/supabase/openai embedding models

[Atilla Tuna Sogut @ats237]

@wilsun007 @nyc_founders Hey Will! Sorry just saw this. We'll catch you next time!

[Atilla Tuna Sogut @ats237]

Framing exercise in terms of ROI makes it so much easier to stay disciplined.

8 months ago I started to think of working out as 1 minute of cardio = 1 hour of not being ill or in hospitals.

It just makes it way easier to get off of the couch, and making it easier to stay disciplined is a more reliable approach than toughing it out every time or waiting for motivation.

We have 7 people coming for the founders walk on Sunday in Prospect Park. I like keeping these walks smaller so only a few spots left! Come on down!

@thegrowthcoder We'll do the ~3.5 mile loop. I think last time it took a bit over an hour. Not out of breath pace but faster than a stroll. The last mile is all uphill though.

[Atilla Tuna Sogut @ats237]

I'm hosting a founders walk in Prospect Park on Sunday September 22nd. Come join us to meet other founders and indiehackers! #nyc #indiehackers

@TK_HelpDesk My girlfriend and I have a Bodrum-Istanbul-JFK trip in 5 days. Tried to change the origin to Ankara and was told there is a 210 USD fine per person. Even cancelling the first leg (Bodrum-Istanbul) would incur the same fine.

And the absurd part is that if we don't board the first leg, you will cancel our Istanbul-JFK flight entirely, so we can't even buy a separate Ankara-Istanbul flight.

I have consistently flown with Turkish Airlines for 13 years and I can't believe this is how you treat your long time customers. Had to change my plans due to a family emergency and it feels you're doing everything you can to make things more difficult. Very disappointed in @TurkishAirlines
