@ricoboost noticed random traffic coming from ChatGPT but couldn’t figure out why.

Instead of guessing, he started prompting it himself. Saved the outputs. Built a small database around the patterns.

3 weeks for the MVP.
8 weeks to ship v1 with real feedback.
First paying customer came from organic Reddit.

He listed it on TrustMRR.
28 days later, it got acquired for $3,500.

Built from curiosity.
Shipped fast.
Exited in under a month.

The Olympics are a painful reminder that even if I'm good at plenty of things, I'll never be excellent at anything

I noticed that OpenAi TTS sucked with foreign languages, but if you use the phonetic transcription it actually does it quite well. Super useful

this year I will:
- make my first $ online
- become jacked
- learn how to see beauty in simple things

Spent 6 months on one project.
I knew I should’ve shipped faster.
I was scared.
If it flops, good. Next one will be better.

Just left an AI conference where most speakers were VPs from major EU AI firms. Consensus? ‘More control, more guardrails, more limitations.’

Meanwhile, the EU’s regulatory push feels like it’s playing catch-up with a moving train. If even the architects of AI want tighter reins, how does Europe stay competitive *and* ethical?

Genuinely worried we’re outsourcing our future. 🚨

Building a language learning app 🛠️ and hitting a wall: generating consistent, high-quality content.

Thought LLMs would make it easy, but… nope. 😅 Struggling with irregular quality, awkward phrases, and cultural nuances.

So far, @grok‘s been the most reliable.

@levelsio and is that enough to rank on Google?

@yongfook super true, they're just telling you their needs, you have to find the proper technical solution

@yoavhacohen this is super impressive, even when you closely pay attention to it, you can't tell it's ai

@tibo_maker Where do you even start? Do you build SEO around the core pages of your website, do you create a lot of content?

[Solo Bloom @solobl00m]

How do you validate startup ideas?

Do you:
1. Code a quick MVP first?
2. Test demand (landing page, surveys, etc.) with *zero* code?
3. Just wing it and build the whole thing? 😅

I’ve done all three, curious what works best for you!

@levelsio if they're able to stay there for 5 years, they can claim the Irish citizenship and then live anywhere in the EU or the UK

@BenGeskin is it better than watching it on a good quality screen?

@BBCWorld Is he even allowed to run for a third one anyway?

Big lesson: If I don’t understand the code AI writes, I’m not saving time —I’m borrowing trouble.
Now I break requests into bite-sized pieces.
It’s slower… but I’m no longer drowning in mysterious bugs. Progress > shortcuts.
