who said creative ?

[𐌁𐌉Ᏽ 𐌕𐌉𐌌𐌉 @OrevaZSN]

If AI is supposed to be such a creative tool, why does every AI-generated flyer look exactly the same?

[Dammy @Olu_cook]

I thought i eas the only one that noticed this, I find that the best writing are done by models before sep last year

[Ab. @Abiodun0x]

AI models have degraded rapidly in writing the moment all the frontier labs discovered that coding is the way to make money.

wawu!

Claude Shannon was asked in an interview how is he so carefree.

His reply: “I do what comes naturally to me. I’m not interested in being useful”.

What an absolutely wonderful way to live!

Ambition without action becomes anxiety.

Retention beats acquisition every time.

Yes. It is called finding a family HVAC business with no website or CRM being run by a 65 year old retiring owner

On August 21, I’ll conclude my 12-year tenure as Chairman of UBA; upon the completion of the maximum 12-year tenure prescribed for Non-Executive Directors of Banks by the Central Bank of Nigeria.

I can finally share that base44 passed $100M ARR,
and is growing faster than ever.

This makes us one of the fastest companies to do so.
Definitely the fastest without VC backing :)

I'm taking some time to digest.
This milestone is surprisingly emotional for me, to be honest.
Maybe it's just reflecting on how crazy this past year has been.
I'll probably post some stuff i've learned from powering through it.

But for now -
I want to thank our users, for trusting us to turn their wildest ideas into reality.
For building their businesses on our platform.
And for pushing us to be a better product every day.

Base has by far the wildest,
most valuable community in this market,
and it’s not even close.

And lastly,
It's hard to state how much I'm grateful for the Base44 team.

Thank you for being there with me, in the trenches, on this generational run.

You're the most talented, hard working, sometimes funny people I've worked with.

5 million users later, It's still day 1 for base44

stick to fun actually, because anything can be monetized, and fun can guarantee qualitative depth

[Mark Lou @markproduct]

Don't build for fun

Build for profit.

[DAN KOE @thedankoe]

If you don't wake up excited and go to bed tired, drop everything and think of what your future will look like if you keep repeating the same day for the rest of your life. Sit with that discomfort until a new direction appears.

[Route 2 FI @Route2FI]

Living in a big city is crucial for everything. Better jobs, more high IQ people, more risk takers, prettier people, in general just way more opportunities in every aspect of life. It also increases your probability of luck finding you.

[Dammy @Olu_cook]

reminds me of the CEO of that insuretech start up in the US that requires his staff to work 7 days of the week

[Hussain Ibarra @HussainIbarra]

I'm genuinely convinced that if you want to become successful, you need to bring a psychopathic level of intensity, urgency, and work ethic that most people will think you're crazy.

[Dammy @Olu_cook]

I need more founding communities actually

[Tom Otto @launch_llama]

hot take: most founders spend too much time in founder communities and not enough time talking to actual customers.
