Been quietly building something for weeks.

A game. In the browser. No downloads.

Can't say more yet, but follow along. Launching soon 👀

@liamreckziegel the survivorship part is so real. $400/mo still climbing at month 4 and $400/mo flat at year 2 are completely different businesses, but they look identical in a screenshot. would love to see the median curve from that 4k set

@JadhavAjay01 @X London Rush, a tiny browser driving game. Super early, a couple of Grok @Bot agents are helping me build it and I'm after honest feedback from anyone who plays. Happy Friday building

@hardikpakhale pointing people to the nearest dark sky with direction and distance is such a thoughtful touch. a forecast alone just tells you what you're missing, this tells you where to go

[Atul @sudoaptaj]

@Tesla from a Roadster floating in orbit to one with cold-gas thrusters is a ridiculous full circle. the wings running on Optimus actuators is the part i keep thinking about, hardware from one project quietly powering another

[Atul @sudoaptaj]

@MdrBwl the invisible bug fix followed by the unused feature launch is the indie tax. i keep a shipped-but-unused list now so i stop polishing ghosts

[Atul @sudoaptaj]

@BullBSE removing the post-and-pray guesswork is the real product. once curious vs needs-attention is visible the whole thing becomes way more useful

[Atul @sudoaptaj]

We literally got flying cars before GTA 6 😭

Rockstar, you've got some catching up to do

#Tesla #TeslaRoadster

[Atul @sudoaptaj]

@0xMas0n yeah! a browser driving game called London Rush. still very early, looking for people to try the rough build and tell me what's broken. multiplayer and more cities come once the core loop feels right

[Atul @sudoaptaj]

@Sandip_Lawate overnight wiring for scans, pdfs and the pricing click is a solid day. once that first funnel report lands you'll finally see where curious turns into ready instead of guessing from page views

[Atul @sudoaptaj]

"The future promised us flying cars, but instead we got 140 characters. Well, not anymore." 🤯

@elonmusk's new @Tesla Roadster just drove up a vertical wall, launched on thrusters and landed.

I'm building a driving game where the wildest thing is a police chase. Roadmap just got a lot bigger 😅

Would you buy one? #Roadster

@j_brissonneau running the eval suite in CI the day a model drops is such a clean loop. silent most days, and when something shifts you've already got the evidence before anyone starts debating

[Atul @sudoaptaj]

@ToniRMCardoso agents that can't publish or spend without sign-off is exactly the right setup. curious how the friday numbers posts go, that's usually the part people actually come back for

[Atul @sudoaptaj]

@JulieFrench_ stripe done on day 32 is a real milestone. the account/login flow is the boring stuff nobody sees but everyone notices when it breaks, nice work getting it solid

[Atul @sudoaptaj]

@otoclip one flop and one that worked is still data. shipping shorts daily at 0 users is the hard part and you're doing it anyway

[Atul @sudoaptaj]

yesterday morning this account had 33 followers. tonight it's 81.

no ads, no threads, just shipping stuff and actually talking to other builders in the replies.

if you're building something late tonight, drop it below. I'll check it out

@b4dgerr Gaming + Advertising 👀 (launching soon…)

[Atul @sudoaptaj]

@ed_ui_design @metmuseum @ClevelandArt keeping the light fixed while the painting tilts is such a nice touch, that's what makes it feel like a real object on a wall. are you doing the lighting in shaders or baking it per painting?

[Atul @sudoaptaj]

@j_brissonneau thin layer plus an eval suite is the bit most people skip, and it's what turns a model swap into a config change instead of a rewrite. do you rerun the evals on every new release or only when you're actually thinking of switching?
