Traveling around Europe for a few months, and filling out those long personal data forms every time I check into a new Airbnb or hotel is so annoying Every place has different glitchy providers and different forms every time. Why isn't there one centralized place for this?

Claude: "You are absolutely right!" Gemini 3 Pro: "You are absolutely right, but at the same time wrong!" Good progress

Just sold one of my side projects on @acquiredotcom 4x ARR 0 calls 3 weeks to get buyer agreement since listing @agazdecki you built a truly exceptional company - the whole experience was top notch from beginning to end

Stablecoin yields right now: ❌ Coinbase: 5% ❌ Your bank: 3-4% ✅ DeFi protocols: 8-20% Problem: Finding them is a nightmare I built an aggregator that updates in real-time and ranks by risk Link in the comments

ChatGPT 3.5 launch in 2022: "AI will replace all jobs!" PhD-level models in 2025: "This AI is stupid! It can't read my mind when I type 'fix the thing in the stuff'" We have normalized magic and now we're mad it's not telepathic 😅

A month later no signs of recovery at all 🤷‍♂️
Google AI Overview nuked one of my info websites. At this rate, info websites will not survive the next couple years

Called it a year ago Every team I know that went heavy on AI coding 2 years ago without a proper code/architecture review process is now either: - Spend more time desperately refactoring that building features - Completely rewriting everything from scratch
Prediction: Companies heavily relying on AI coding (like Cursor Composer mode) will face significant tech debt in 1-2 years. Blindly implementing AI-generated code without thorough review will inevitably lead to exponentially increasing maintenance difficulty

So, 3 years ago I built an AI host for live streams with GPT-3.5 It was cool but didn’t catch on... too early, I guess. Now, with LLMs and TTS leveling up, maybe it’s time to revisit and relaunch it. Could be a hit this time.
🚀 I built this AI product with the help of some amazing AI tools in just 10 days. Here's how I did it and why I think AI is the best copilot (not replacement) for me: 👇

I could've saved $30k+ over the last few years if I'd noticed my servers and Google Cloud storage bucket were in different regions 🤦‍♂️

Last week I slashed my server costs by 85% 💸 I bought a dedicated Hetzner server for just $112/mo and got: ✅ 32 vCPU (AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D) ✅ 128 DDR5 ✅ 4 TB SSD ✅ Unlimited bandwidth This beast replaced 4 Google Cloud Platform servers ($580/mo + $200/mo bandwidth) 🤯 Migrating took only 30 minutes! I can't believe I spent hundreds of thousands on GCP in the last 5 years when Hetzner could have saved me a fortune! Moving more non-critical services to Hetzner soon, keeping GCP for autoscaling during peak times only

Any ideas on how to monetize it? One of the blog posts on our company blog brings a massive amount of traffic. But that audience is not relevant to our product, and we can not convert them well. Should I put Google Adsense banners?

People and companies run 250,000 live streams every day. Most of them suck. Here are 3 actionable techniques to make your stream stand out: 👇

2. Add a warm-up experience at the beginning so people stick and won’t leave your broadcast while you are waiting for everyone to join. Include an interactive wordle game with a countdown, or at least play a video clip.

3. Add interactive components. You must show excellent user engagement to prove to the algorithm that your broadcast deserves higher rankings. A simple solution is adding interactive games, such as trivia and word searches.
