Jev→ Laya → Laya-MLX → Kev in 3 days is wild guys.
Jev brought attentions to decision models.
Laya made the idea open-weight + multilingual.
Laya-MLX made it run locally on your Mac in ~7–14ms.
Kev basically said “what if we just build this on Qwen?” — and did.
Closed → open → local → built on existing models.
All happened in 3 days lmao.
first came jev. then laya. then laya-mlx. and now kev.
all system one decision models. all within a span of 3 days. never seen a race this fierce before.
let us breathe, folks. let us breathe.
@suraj_sharma14@perplexity_ai Day 2 of building my X account to 1K.
Already learning that thoughtful replies to the right people > endless shitposting.
@Sandro7ge My trigger is when research stops creating new insight and starts creating more tabs.
If AI keeps giving me versions of the same answer, I go find someone who’s actually done it.
Solo founder lesson:
Spent 3 days researching something.
Asked someone who actually knew what they were doing.
Got the answer in 20 minutes.
New strategy:
AI for what AI knows.
Experts for what experts know.
Me for what I know.
Turns out “solo founder” doesn’t mean “personally reinvent every wheel.”
Exactly. Human attention still runs on the same hardware. Meanwhile, the growth stack is still 10 different tools you have to stitch together yourself.
@Pranto39 Depends on what you’re launching and who your users are. I’d use Reddit/X to talk to potential users before launch, then share what worked, what didn’t, and what you learned along the way. People on X love following the journey when there’s something useful to learn from it.
@frederickjames Curious — once the stack is set up, what’s the biggest bottleneck for you now to growth: understanding what’s happening, or deciding what to actually change next?
