Recently I have been doing a modern Lotus Agenda clone as a native iOS app. I have been implementing a custom CRM using that platform.

Also, Arch Ascent, which is a tool for evolveing microservice-heavy architectures.

Are you guys interested in some ideas?

It seems to me that I am getting much more good ideas than I can carry on.

Sure fire away maybe this time something clicks for someone :)

Well for example this is very unique idea and even in the current state it has been very useful at a customer. Almost completely vibe coded but idea is fully mine.

It depends on how many non-10K MRR projects you have. Making it possible to try out many ideas cheaply may be a good idea.

The author says he wants funding to grow the businesses. Presumably he wants funding and the help from investors to enable quicker growth than what is possible organically.

Yes, "presumably." That's exactly the problem..

No disgreement from me.

He does not say what kind of funding he has been trying to get, but if my presumption is right, then some kind of Y-Combinator style hypergrowth.

I think the response he got is sensible if he was approaching "Excel investors" who are risk averse, not targeting hypergrowth.

The biggest innovation from Google regarding hardware was understanding that the dropping memory prices had made it feasible to serve most data directly from memory. Even as memory was more expensive, you could serve requests faster, meaning less server capacity, meaning reduced cost. In addition to serving requests faster.

I find it believable that this could potentially happen, although I am not sure the difference is so huge to existing models.

I used Opus 4.6 to find security vulnerabilities in couple of my own projects, it found 33 vulnerabilities in one largeish django project.

The prompt wasn't even that impressive, just telling it to find vulnerabilities from certain files, and referring to OWASP. Then looping that.

So interesting to read from other's hobbies!

I believe we all have three major parts: emotional, intellectual, and physical.

I have been very intellectually oriented, meaning I used my intellectual part even when it was not so useful for the thing I was doing. For example, thinking about emotions or how to do something when it is better than just feel or do.

My aim has been to become more balanced human being, meaning choosing pursuits that activate those other parts as well.

What has stayed with me over the years has been couples' dancing, which fits nicely with physical/emotional side. You just need to find a teacher whose apporach is not intellectual, i.e. based on steps and sequences! I am still doing it 2-5 times per week.

I am also doing regularly: - yin yoga - tai chi - winterswimming

I have had several other niche hobbies throughout the years, like: - fencing - improv theatre - leather works -- I ended up on a very demanding leather shoe course and made my own dancing shoes - wood crafting -- wooden spoons - traditional survival skills -- various kinds of traditional fire making skills, making traditional traps, making emergency tents, making emergency drafts, learning about plants, learning to skin/handle game etc.

Something I wanted to try but did not yet: - flint knapping

I have two modes. Mostly what you describe (phase 1), but followed by "project management" (phase 2), where I iterate through the impementing the plan done in phase 1.

I am just running multiple agents to work on different projects. Once in a while I have a feature that splits nicely into multiple threads that can be developed concurrently, and I use several concurrent agents to do it. But that is rare.

I built my own platform for what I call ethical ads that is serving ads for my own site. No profiling of users allowed, but I allow very specific targeting for content.
