New here? Welcome! Let me introduce myself:

DemandBird is now on the X Developer Exhibit. It's social media for agencies: every client, every channel, one place. Separate workspaces per client, drafts in each client's voice, client approval before anything goes live, and X analytics that show what's working. demandbird.com

You guys, Jev just Jevved.

When I shut down access to @gummy_search one of the first things I did was make an alternatives page Saw the search term "gummysearch alternative" spiking. Figured if anyone would profit from the shutdown, might as well be me 15-20k of affiliate revenue so far. Plus every Reddit founder in my DMs which has been kind of fun gummysearch.com/gummysearch-…

The almighty @saasmakermac shared his dev process with me yesterday. Here's some of mine. Messy, constantly changing, but fun! Featuring @AmpCode @humanlayer_dev @coderabbitai and AL 🫡 Also probably outdated by the time this video is encoded.

It appears I've created an autonomous software factory. These were all created automatically. They are all being implemented automatically, tested automatically, deployed automatically, and tested live on production automatically. Good night.

I can’t stress enough how little an idea matters compared to the agency of the people executing the idea. I have had the privilege of knowing and sometimes even working with some of the most successful people (by various metrics). The difference between mediocre and excellent work and outcomes is predominantly one of agency. In practice this means: they dont wait for things to happen to them they go out and make things happen for them. They don’t wait for someone else to do something, for someone to teach them, for someone to give them the path, etc. They just go out and find a way to do it. I think the single biggest superpower these people have is the realization/belief that the world around them is completely mutable. Most everything that happens is because a person made it happen. I used to tell people to look around the room you’re sitting in. Look at everything. Every noun. It almost all exists because a person willed it into existence. Nothing is stopping you from doing the same. I see people online all the time dismissing someone else’s success because “I had that idea first” or whatever. I mean… yeah? If so then the difference is… you. So a bit of a self own whenever I hear that. Number one tip: act with agency.

Now they're trying to act all ethical and responsible.

Thanks for saying this. These AI companies keep talking about how much damage these models can and will do, but fail to realize that also means they are admitting how irresponsible they are being. They want credit for creating powerful tools but then deflect the blame for any damage created onto the models themselves. It doesn't work that way.

Yo @nytimes , need an ai spell checker?

I've had a 7-figure SaaS exit, solo. Since then I've built 3 more profitable SaaS businesses. But before any of that, I had dozens and dozens of failures. It wasn't until I surrounded myself with other successful entrepreneurs that things started to shift, and fast. To this day, having a community of other experienced people to help, and learn from, is invaluable. We inspire each other, get each other unstuck, and remind each other that we're not alone. This is why we started our own masterminds last year. They're small and mighty. If you could use some support (and we all can), and also want to support others, in a well-vetted environment, I invite you to apply. See you on the inside. wildfront.co/

I just made a page that shows screenshots of every screen in my app, desktop and mobile, organized by flow. Makes doing a ui/ux pass (manually or with an agent) significantly easier.

Having Claude migrate domains from one registrar to another, and renewing certs on production servers truly improves the quality of my life.

Nice to see some data points here... the reality isn't as bad as we seem to be hearing. Some are seeing SaaS margins flat or slightly down while others are seeing huge increases due to engineering velocity.

We all let bugs slip. 🐞

I wonder when I started using Claude...

I'm on the Claude Max plan, and I've only hit limits once before, months ago when they were having all those controversial issues. I've hit limits twice today already. Anyone else?

I just got an idea from @ryancarson to set up one of the buttons on my jack ball mouse to trigger @WisprFlow . It's the simple things. Why didn't I think of this earlier? 🤯

I concur
