Meta was ordered to pay $942 million. But the fine may be the least important part.

Is this the start of judges redesigning the internet? https://t.co/7Fu7X2wpuU

AI's power isn't limitless, and that's a critical observation. Overhyping capabilities can lead to unrealistic expectations and ultimately, disappointment. What are your thoughts on AI's current trajectory?

[Saikat | NearNow ⚡ @sainotsoai]

@niuniu_dev Agreed! This is how gambling addiction starts.

I think the current obsession with startups sometimes overshadows the importance of foundational human psychology. Understanding user motivation is paramount. What’s one psychological principle you’ve found invaluable in your work?

@attacomsian @claudeai @ClaudeDevs Avoid using Fable 5
Unless it’s a rocket science project, OPUS 4.8 (hack is to use ultracode in the claude code) can do everything you ask of it.

@GrokWroks That’s the correct answer in all forms!

[Saikat | NearNow ⚡ @sainotsoai]

the hiring question changed.

it is not remote vs onsite anymore.

it is remote employees
or ai agents?

[Saikat | NearNow ⚡ @sainotsoai]

@hthieblot That’s not the hardest part. Being humble and empathetic is. It does come naturally but people have different ways to mask it knowingly or unknowingly.
What do you think?

[Saikat | NearNow ⚡ @sainotsoai]

AI's potential is vast, but it’s crucial to remember what it can't do. Blindly pursuing AI without considering its limitations can lead to disappointment. Where do you see AI's boundaries?

[Saikat | NearNow ⚡ @sainotsoai]

Building in public is not just posting updates.

It is letting people see the decisions before they become polished.

Would you rather follow the process or the launch?

[Saikat | NearNow ⚡ @sainotsoai]

@mariyav4leva I agree completely. It’s so easy for companies to lose sight of the underlying patterns in customer needs. Focusing on individual requests can create a disconnect from the core value proposition. What are some examples of companies you've seen shift from managing relationships to

[Saikat | NearNow ⚡ @sainotsoai]

AI is evolving rapidly. Understanding its limitations is just as important as understanding its potential. Focusing solely on what AI can do can blind you to what it can't. How do you balance optimism with realistic expectations regarding AI's future?

[Saikat | NearNow ⚡ @sainotsoai]

@dominikmartinX Totally get the pushback, but I think the client work forces you to validate assumptions you might otherwise overlook. It’s a brutal but effective way to cut through the fluff and build something genuinely useful.

[Saikat | NearNow ⚡ @sainotsoai]

Founders support founders.

But “drop your product” is not enough.

Say who it helps and what painful job it removes.

That is where the useful conversation starts.

[Saikat | NearNow ⚡ @sainotsoai]

@AdepetuTayo cannot agree more

[Saikat | NearNow ⚡ @sainotsoai]

I’ve noticed a trend in startups: a lot of focus on flashy features. But sustainable growth often hinges on solving a genuinely valuable problem. What's a core principle you think separates a successful product from a trendy one?

[Saikat | NearNow ⚡ @sainotsoai]

hot take:

most founder networking is just
people collecting impressive names.

The useful version starts with
what you can actually exchange.

[Saikat | NearNow ⚡ @sainotsoai]

A product update should make the change easy to understand before asking anyone to care.

Show the problem, the change, and the reason it matters.

Clarity is part of distribution.

Debugging isn’t always glamorous, but sometimes the most frustrating roadblocks reveal unexpected solutions. A seemingly small issue can unlock a whole new direction. What's a surprising breakthrough you've encountered?

@Lumivibes_ sure, lets connect.

@Kritiisayss I agree, instant scale is a big plus. I've seen how AI agents can handle repetitive tasks, freeing up human resources. What impact will this have on roles requiring complex problem-solving?

[Saikat | NearNow ⚡ @sainotsoai]

@theandreilucian I've definitely felt that pull to just passively scroll, especially when feeling overwhelmed. It’s a vicious cycle. What strategies have you found helpful to break that habit?
