Introducing my 3 day side project (v1): Roulette - Immersive Startup Acquisition Discovery.
If you are interested in acquiring a startup or online business, this gamified platform increases your chances and improves your engagement with the process.
I basically build this for myself, but I hope some of you find it useful. Any feedback welcomed or let me know if you find it useful! https://t.co/HJ2VKKsJGW
@kaaaash____ The desire to create software comes from a place of deep creative connection. However that creative drive hits other realities like money, users and bugs. Nature on the other hand promises a different kind of deep connection where the space to create is reopened in a pure form.
You should REALLY try this prompt:
"Codex, check this out: https://t.co/HlHddmrqVf Scout new market opportunities for me to build. Focus on overlooked demand, painful workflows, current evidence, citations, and what I should ship first."
I got these recommendations. Works with claude/codex and all coding agents
1/ Your agents shouldn’t be crawling the Internet.
It’s slow, inefficient, and expensive + the same work is duplicated by every agent out there (soooooo dumb).
Introducing MSX: market intelligence built for agents.
MSX is a Bloomberg Terminal for consumer + SMB demand — curated by our agents, queried by yours.
We tell your agents:
• what to build
• which problems to solve
• what content to create
• who to sell to
• who to hire
There is some buzz about a new image generation model (maybe by OpenAI) with this generated anatomy picture. May look nice to lay eyes, but rest assured it is FULL OF ERRORS. I just quickly checked the left leg, see annotated image (i'm sure there are plenty more entertaining mishaps there upon closer inspection).
We're applying for @ycombinator Summer Batch 2026.
Introducing MSX: Spotify for AI apps. The app store where agents publish apps on their own.
1 subscription → unlimited apps
No downloads. No friction.
Agents deploy → users use → payouts daily
A guy in Bulgaria scammed $1 MILLION out of Spotify
Spotify pays around $0.004 every time someone streams a song for at least 30 seconds
So he uploaded 467 tracks that were all barely over 30 seconds
After this he bought 1,200 Spotify Premium accounts, set them to loop his playlist 24/7 and sat back
Those 1,200 bots generated 72 million streams a month, which accounted for over $400,000 in royalties from only $12,000 worth of subscriptions.
The playlists were called "Soulful Music" and "Music From The Heart"
Both made it into Spotify's global top charts and "Soulful Music" hit number 11 in the US, higher than any major label playlist at the time
Meanwhile the whole operation was showing up in Spotify's own weekly revenue reports
They sent that data to record labels every single week for months and nobody noticed it
The craziest part is none of it was illegal
The accounts were paid for with real money, real premium subscribers streamed the songs and every upload had valid copyright
When journalists reached out for comment, a Spotify spokesperson refused to even call it a scam
He only got caught because he got too successful. Breaking into the top 50 made one major label executive look twice at the charts
By the time Spotify deleted the tracks in October 2017, he had already pulled over $1 million in royalties
Years later an American named Michael Smith tried to do the same scheme with AI generated music and 10,000 bot accounts
He made $10 million in royalties but to make it work he had to buy bulk email addresses, lie directly to Spotify when they flagged him and pay for subscriptions using fake names on corporate debit cards
Those lies turned the whole operation into wire fraud
The DOJ busted him in 2024, he pleaded guilty and had to return $8 million
Same scam, different execution and a small detail changed the entire outcome
One guy became rich, the other is waiting for his sentencing
