shipped apps for 5 yrs, made $2000.
biggest mistake: I dodged distribution the whole time.
now building the fix in public + sharing what I learn.

Moral of the story: we have lost patience for creative thinking. I am not against AI. I use it every day. But if we surrender even to thinking, what's the point of being human

Codex is coming for Rork now! Is this how a monopoly works?

[OpenAI Developers @OpenAIDevs]

More of the iOS app loop, now inside Codex.

The Build iOS Apps plugin lets Codex view and test your iOS app in the in-app browser, open SwiftUI previews, and hot reload edits without leaving Codex.

Feel free to enjoy the rest of your coffee now before the session limit kicks in with Claude code.

[ClaudeDevs @ClaudeDevs]

We've reset 5-hour and weekly rate limits for all users on Pro and Max plans.

We fixed an issue that caused some Claude Code sessions to spawn excessive parallel subagents, burning through usage faster than expected.

@rork @grok which platform would you pick?

[Khalid Sayfullah @xcomkhalid]

Hey @rork, why should I choose you over Claude Code?

@athcanft irony when just upgraded to premium+ 30 minutes ago and seeing this post🥲

@GeorgeLampro20 Great value. although you didn't prepare enough to make the video. it would be awesome if you made a video on how you will generate a non-gooning video with ai that converts better.

[Khalid Sayfullah @xcomkhalid]

I am pleased to see someone has raised their voice. love you bro @GeorgeLampro20

Using AI girl goon bait to market a product is such a loser thing to do.

[Khalid Sayfullah @xcomkhalid]

@tibo_maker Why would someone dispute you in the first place if you aren't scamming, which I believe you aren't?

NEVER forget to put “PLEASE” at the end of every time you chat with Claude

[Will @athcanft]

for new entrepreneurs:

1. don’t be an inventor
find already existing products and improve them - “new” ideas have likely been tested before & there’s a reason they aren’t making money

2. marketing is the moat
building the product is easy - now you have to market, which is the hardest part. try every distribution method possible - reddit, meta, tiktok, youtube, cold emails - at least one of these channels will be high ROI and you can double down on it

3. kill your babies
look at levels, marclou… they’ve built 10-100 startups each and most have failed. ship fast, validate fast, and kill the project when the signals are clear. don’t be emotionally attached, it’s just business

4. failure is valuable
it’s part of the process, overtime you become more efficient in making higher ROI decisions - don’t get beaten down by failure, harvest it for its valuable lessons

5. build a personal brand
once you have some success, you can prove it, and teach others your learnings - a personal brand unlocks many revenue streams (rev share from X/YT, sponsorships, consulting, courses etc) - it makes you bulletproof. if all your businesses disappeared tomorrow, you’d be able to spin up new ones fast and have a huge audience to show it to

if a solo founder stopped doing all marketing tomorrow, how long before each of these breaks down

- word of mouth
- SEO traffic
- email list
- social following

what holds longer than you'd think? what collapses overnight?

[Khalid Sayfullah @xcomkhalid]

@zuess05 100x marketer. No one can stop you if you can market stuff.

[Khalid Sayfullah @xcomkhalid]

"i'd build an AI agent for you" "i'd automate your entire stack for you" okay but would you validate your idea for me? would you talk to 10 customers for me?

@hiarun02 They were probably trying to clone the entire google ecosystem😀

[Khalid Sayfullah @xcomkhalid]

@darshan_gupta17 @TTrimoreau and tell them that I am the person who will double check these responses 😀

[Khalid Sayfullah @xcomkhalid]

Hot take:

ChatGPT: went viral. Everyone is using it. Replaced Google Search.

Google AI: Struggling to get paid as Google has never taken money from its customers before.

Claude: Targeted a wealthy user base and able to make a premium impression on its users.
