This unique moment when you can download your app from AppStore!

@mil000 I don't like their content probably is for another ICP lol

[Carlos Velasco @Velascode_]

Every builder gets obsessed with their idea.

The only thing worth obsessing over is learning how to make money with your app!

Not because money is everything, but because it’s the simplest signal that you’re crating something ppl really wants!

[Lotanna Ezeike 💳 @lottsnomad]

hot take

your big idea is probably killing your chances of ever making money

most founders want to build something massive

• a platform
• a movement
• a category-defining product

so they spend months overthinking features, branding, vision decks, and edge cases

and never ship anything that actually makes cash

90% of apps that make money look nothing like that

they are small
boring
unsexy

but they solve one very specific problem for one very specific person

and they charge for it immediately

small cashflow apps are easier to build, easier to explain, easier to market, and much easier to sell later

you don’t need a vision big enough to impress VCs

you need something good enough that someone will pull out their card without thinking

start small
make it obvious
make it profitable

you can always make it bigger later

Love how simple and useful is this!

We built an AI that can draw on your screen.

It's a true personal tutor.

Using Claude Opus we're able to draw polygons, point with pixel perfect accuracy, and walk users through complex steps directly on their screen.

Here's me learning Pythagorean Theorem + FL Studio.

@slabdotrip this is genius

@GuntherEagleman we love 24/7 concept of a machine, big but! Machines are still machines. Every system needs maintenance, repairs, energy, and downtime.

@grok What’s the true total cost and downtime for a Optimus robot, including maintenance, charging, battery degradation, repairs, etc

@nalinrajput23 I have the same question last year, ML still live? It's LLM enough to create your custom models for your company or let the AI decide how to improve and predict your metrics?
