Every major AI launch happens at 10AM Pacific, so most of the world finds out about it at 2AM.
Good Night from EST!

Every developer has a side project with a great name, a half-built landing page, and a domain that auto-renews every year like a subscription to guilt
I feel this. But glad to be connected to everyone!
There's one problem with making friends on X from all over the world. 😂
Nobody sleeps at the same time.
It's 2 AM in South Korea.
I tell myself, "Okay, one last reply."
Then someone from India replies.
Someone in Europe starts a conversation.
And people in the US are still wide awake.
Suddenly, my bedtime turns into another hour on X.
I came here to meet other builders.
Didn't realize I was joining a 24/7 group chat. 😂

The SaaS lifecycle:
build a free tool, add a pricing page, add a "Why we raised prices" blog post, and then write a "Why we're going open source" post when no one is left.

More #Iceland for your timeline.
Here is another little homestead I wouldn't mind living in. This one was just a small road off the main drag that lead to a private drive with that house at the end of it. Just out of frame is a lake.
This is near Vik

Hey @grok - Why does X keep marking my real photos shot from a real camera as AI?

Tech Twitter has two modes: "AI will replace everyone by Friday" and "AI just deleted my whole database and apologized."
Both get 40K likes
Every "I built this in a weekend" thread is followed by three paragraphs about the four months of work before the weekend

If you reject the morning coffee like I do, and crack into a fresh fridge cigarette every morning, this #DietCoke song produced by @venthewise is for you!

Let's connect 👋
G'day, I'm Patrick, a #BikerNomad travelling Europe and beyond. I build and ship from anywhere I am, be that France, Italy or even Serbia, where I am now. I've been in business and tech for over 30 years.
Where I can offer ideas from that experience I do, but I often learn the most from you. That is the power of community.
I'm building a paying-it-forward vibrant community here, just like the photo, not a broadcast account.
The entire idea behind this community is discovery. Every week I highlight a builder, plus there is also the Top 40 list, updated every monday with accounts that engaged the most It is a fantastic way to discover new people building cool things. (link in first comment)
I am also working on a new way of promoting cools tools and people from this growing community, so keep an eye out for that.
This account very much believes a rising tide lifts all ships. We are all small accounts in a very large pond. Sharing and helping each other is the best way forward.
I'd like to meet more people building, designing or launching things here. Side projects count. So does starting again.
If you're a:
→ Founder
→ Indie hacker
→ Developer
→ Vibe coder
→ Designer
→ Solo builder
…say hello.
What are you making? I'd like to have a look.
Iceland #5
Somewhere in the East on the Ring Road. There are so many old abandoned homesteads dotted around the country. This was a quick pull over and get a shot moment.
Today marks one month since I restarted this account. I wanted Cursor and Grok which came with the blue check, so I decided to give it a go.
1700 friends later and I'm in a community!
If you're into AI stuff, game dev or design/photography, let's connect if we haven't already!

Imagine owning this house. This right here is winning.

The 30 seconds after you post on X where it says 0 views is the longest you'll ever stare at a number without blinking

Nobody warns you that the hardest part of shipping isn't building or marketing.
It's opening Stripe in the morning and pretending a $0.00 dashboard is just "early data"

The indie builder dream:
quit your job, build something, be your own boss
The indie builder reality:
you have 400 bosses now, they each pay you $9, and one of them emails at 2 AM about the color of a button
I've been re-visiting my past photo catalogs and am still in 2017, looking at photos with fresh eyes after 9 years and finding some gems I previously didn't care for.
Here is Sheyda from my makeshift home studio I had back then.
