I think this is a good moment to bring up a question I was thinking on earlier today. In a world where agents are searching, building, and signing up for services, how do you adver…

Yes, using it now.

I've been working on Lorcast ( https://lorcast.com/ ) a Scryfall like search for Lorcana. Scryfall offers a powerful search engine and query language to search for Magic: The Gathe…

https://ethanmick.com/ I write about building cloud multi-tenant SaaS products and run a niche newsletter that goes further into detail about building these. My goal is to help eve…

How do people on HN like Row Level Security? Is it a better way to handle multi-tenant in a cloud SaaS app vs `WHERE` clauses in SQL? Worse? Nicer in theory but less maintainable i…

Yep! I answered on another comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35891575 I might expand on this in a blog post.

I think this is a good question. Screenshots are hard on HN, but I could write up a blog post about it all once I have a demo of the game. I've been using ChatGPT and GPT-4 since t…

Thanks for the response! It sounds like (in a good way) there's no shortcut. You build something, make it better, make it great, and talk about it for a long time to establish cred…

TypeScript happens to be my current strongest language. I picked Phaser since I wanted to learn the ins and outs of building the game and not need to worry about the language I was…

I was thinking of building this for Next.js in a very similar way. I love the fact that this exists for a different stack! I think your implementation of the project template is de…

> More importantly, it gives me the courage to dream and attempt things beyond my current abilities. This is one of the small things that GPT has pushed me to do. I'm an experience…

So, currently OpenAI's Dalle-2 gives me: "The server is overloaded right now, please try again later." I guess all their compute power is going to power this. And even now the Bing…

This is very similar to an except in Derek Sivers book on cdbaby.com. (CD Baby let independent artists sell their music CDs on the site long before iTunes). In it, he writes: At a …

Good. I've seen over and over this harm friends in frustrating ways. Tech aside, non-competes in other industries are completely insane. My wife is an optometrist and all local sho…

I want to like this a lot, but it's not quite there for me. A datum says it is "Project Billing" and has a rate of $300. Is that $300 per hour? Is that $300 total? What does that m…

Don't hire until you need to. And then don't hire until you want to. I'm doubtful every business can make it to $14M ARR, but I bet many companies could generate $1M ARR without ne…
