99% still don’t get it:
2025 wasn’t about better models.
It was about better DATA.
Every killer demo I’ve seen this month that actually works in production = someone who spent 100+ hrs curating a tiny perfect dataset.
Small clean data + cheap small model > frontier models.
After months of work, my app is sitting in Apple review right now. Could go live any day.
It's called Protocol @useprotocol. It turns any health claim — "magnesium helps sleep," "cold plunges boost recovery" into a 21-day experiment you run on yourself. Reads your wearable data, learns your baseline, tells you if the thing actually worked for YOU. Keep, drop, or test longer.
I built it because I was tired of guessing whether my own stack did anything.
Solo founder. Launching in public. I'll post the wins, the App Store rejections if they come, and the experiments I'm running on myself — one at a time, because that's the only way you actually know which thing worked.
The waiting-on-Apple part is its own kind of pain. Follow for the launch.

I have a secret to share
After your first $2–$3 million, a paid off home and a good car, there is no difference in quality of life between you and Jeff Bezos. Both of you have limited amount of time on earth; you have twice if not more than Jeff, so you are richer than him. A cheeseburger is a cheeseburger whether a billionaire eats or you do.
Money is nothing but a piece of paper or a number in your app. Real life is outdoors.
Become financially independent; that’s usually 2–3mil. Have good food. Enjoy the relations. Workout. Sleep well. Call your parents. That’s all there is to life. Greed has no end.
Repeat after me: Time is the currency of life. Money is not.
Sooner you figure this out, happier you will be.
