We built an AI that: → Connects to your inbox and loads invoices, orders, etc. → Auto-extracts data from text + attachments → Shows everything for human review → Exports, after approval, to your CRM, etc. This saves us so much time. Built with @vercel.com AI SDK.

There is not a single invoicing app for freelancers out there, offering these things: - no subscription, just pay per invoice - beautiful, professional invoices - just let me time-track and invoice. No bloat So I built my own. I don't know, is this for someone else too? Using @shadcn.com

Just crazy. Anyone saying you can vibe-code yourself to a working SaaS is just lying. Just created this monster. I did not ask for this and used the Opus 4! AI is an awesome tool, but you are making a fool of yourself if you think you can autonomously AI-code a complete app.

I can't comprehend how the US - undisputed world leader in almost any area - simply threw all that away in less than 100 days, making it necessary for companies to basically distance themselves from the US. 200 years of hard work, thrown away in 100 days. blogs.microsoft.com/on-the-issue...

In 2025 (less than 30 days away), PayPal will start selling your transaction history for targeted advertising. I very highly recommend logging into your account and going to Settings > Data & Privacy > Personalized Shopping. If you're reading this, turn that off RIGHT NOW before you forget.

A screenshot of PayPal's terms of service. Big wall of legalese text, which I will be pasting in below. You don't need to read it, here's the important part:

"The key update to the Privacy Statement explains how we will share information with merchants to personalize your shopping experience and recommend our services to you. Personal information we disclose includes, for example, products, preferences, sizes, and styles we think you’ll like. Information gathered about you after the effective date of our updated Privacy Statement, November 27, 2024, will be shared with participating stores where you shop."

Here's the whole paragraph:

We are updating our Privacy Statement to explain how, starting early Summer 2025, we will share information to help improve your shopping experience and make it more personalized for you. The key update to the Privacy Statement explains how we will share information with merchants to personalize your shopping experience and recommend our services to you. Personal information we disclose includes, for example, products, preferences, sizes, and styles we think you’ll like. Information gathered about you after the effective date of our updated Privacy Statement, November 27, 2024, will be shared with participating stores where you shop, unless you live in California, North Dakota, or Vermont. For PayPal customers in California, North Dakota, or Vermont, we’ll only share your information with those merchants if you tell us to do so. No matter where you live, you’ll always be able to exercise your right to opt out of this data sharing by updating your preference settings in your account under “Data and Privacy.”

The worst thing for a company is, if Managers have too little work on their own plate. They'll annoy anyone else and reduce overall productivity in a company.

Please stop uncritically sharing "AI" generated bullshit. You're doing so much harm to yourselves and our overarching ability to create and certify knowledge and understanding as a society. I know that sounds hyperbolic, but it's honestly the stakes here. I'm literally begging you.

Friend consults a company in established industry. The comp had no growth in the last 6 yrs. They introduced a new product which is a slight variation of an existing, 10y old one. A new manager started - predicting 35% total revenue growth yoy each year for the next 5 yrs. What does my friend do?

This is what I'm talking about. If we say we don't want to use bsky data externally - I'm in. Privacy is great. But if we allow it, we can't shitstorm if someone we don't like uses the data according to our own rules. For completeness & related: Huggingface is much more than CO2 jugging LLMs!

I'm astonished how many people on here literally hate "AI" - as in the technology. Not LLMs, but AI. As if almost any of the advancements made in the last 15 years were not assisted by any form of AI... Sad to see this blind hatred.

Can anyone here give me some tips for @bolt.new ? It's good for bootstrapping a project but than it is very stubborn when it comes to changing things. And also I don't get the pricing. 20$ for 10M tokens. 10M tokens per month? This is kinda little, isn't it? But I think I just miss some things.
