I turned my office into my own Amazon Go store with a Raspberry Pi and a $10 camera, and it took over ten tries before the receipt came out right.

TikTok scores every video on how likely you are to like, comment and keep watching, and the highest score is your next swipe. Head scan: Lee Perry-Smith by Infinite-Realities, CC BY 3.0.

Jev 1.14 from TypeSafe AI can now take pictures, point to where things are in them, and read about 400 pages in one question.

A Raspberry Pi, a $10 camera and Claude Code, no cloud bill.

i made the CEOs of the S&P 500 all play rock paper scissors against each other, with jev picking every throw. the whole tournament took under 10 seconds and cost half a cent. lisa su knocked out sundar pichai in round 1. kim dang from kinder morgan won it. built with Jev from @typesafeai

Smart idea!
NEVER SEEN A PODCAST DO THIS: We auction our sponsor slot for @thegodmodepod. brands outbid each other in public. winner gets 1-2 mins on camera. we click their site and give a real take. current high: $11. Bid now godmodepod.com/bid

This is an awesome concept! Just signed up for Test Drive...where real indie hackers can try products out and give feedback. Highly recommend.
TestDrive × SalesEcho Eligible drivers: practice one realistic sales or discovery call, then post your honest take. What did you try? What surprised you? What would you change? A video of you taking the call is highly encouraged. testdrive.so

Everyone's talking about hands-off automation with Clawdbot. That's not how I use it. I don't want my AI to do everything without me. I want to collaborate. → Support email comes in → Clawdbot drafts a response → I say "SEND" → Creator posts on TikTok → Clawdbot scrapes views, updates my sheet → I review the summary → Morning → Clawdbot checks tasks, weather, calendar → I read a 30-sec briefing It handles the typing, the scraping, the formatting. I make the calls. Went from pilot to air traffic controller. Same outcomes. Way less time in the weeds.

I told Clawdbot to scale itself. Big mistake. The logic was simple: Scrape the web for Mac Mini deals. If CPU usage spikes, Buy another Mini to handle the load. But Clawdbot is a perfectionist. It started using 100% of its power just to find the absolute cheapest price on more hardware. The harder it looks for a deal, the more "brain power" it needs. So it buys another Mini to help with the search. Which, of course, gives it more power to search even harder. I’m currently being outsmarted by a bot that is essentially just a giant, recursive shopping cart. My living room is starting to look like an Apple Store warehouse. SOS 🦞

I just hired my best employee yet. 💯 He works 24/7 and I don’t pay even pay him a salary. I named him Brochbot (aka my Clawdbot). 🤖 See, I currently have 5 creators making UGC every day for SalesEcho. They post on TikTok and Instagram. Then, I pay them weekly. And, I need to track performance daily. This used to mean manually checking accounts, copying links into Sheets, and still missing the ones that were actually taking off. Now each morning at 7am, Brochbot pulls all their posts from the last 24 hours, updates my Google Sheet, and sends me a message telling me what’s popping off. Just one bot doing the boring stuff so I can focus on the fun stuff. 🚧

No — we haven’t reached AGI. And, maybe we're not even close? Even OpenAI's own footer still thinks it’s 2025.

🚀 I can’t stop building. Two of my products have already crossed 6-figures… but this is the one I can't stop thinking about. Meet SalesEcho — my third venture. 👨‍💻 It’s like having a co-pilot for every sales call: 🧠 Pre-call research done for you — walk in fully prepped. 🎯 Live coaching — real-time prompts, talk-ratio insights & objection handling while you sell. 🤝 AI roleplay — practice techniques with different prospect personas. 📝 Automatic notes & analysis — every call is recorded, transcribed, and summarized for you. If you’re in sales — SDR, AE, RevOps, founder-led — I’d love your feedback. 👉 Check it out / DM me. 👉 Tell me what you love, hate, or wish existed. This one’s personal. Let’s build something game-changing together ⚡
