Got 1st few clients/customers but can't figure out how to scale

So I run kind of a service platform providing AI solutions, not just generic stuff which you see in reels and videos but actual working outputs which help businesses (specifically ones who need appointments) to close leaked leads and basically increase revenue. I got my 1st user for this via IG comment section and then other 2 through referals via some other people, mostly local/inter-state. I want to scale this internationally mainly to US/EU/SGP/JPN. Basically all tier-1 countries. I'm also lo...

I have a SaaS idea I haven't seen anyone doing. If it works, it'll probably get copied within 3 months.

I've been working on a SaaS idea for a while and I'm in kind of a weird spot. I know saying "there's nothing else like this" on the internet is basically asking for someone to show up in the comments with 7 links proving you wrong lol. But I've done a lot of digging and, at least so far, I haven't found anyone doing exactly this. And it's not some crazy groundbreaking idea. The problem already exists, a lot of people deal with it, and the solutions they're using right now are pre...

I can market your SaaS

Do you have a genuinely good product that businesses or a certain industry could use? I can market it and get thousands of people per month seeing your offer or visiting your site. (I don’t charge anything upfront I do commission based or payment after I show results type of thing)

does it bother anyone else that most enterprise AI tools send your data somewhere you cannot fully control?

Not trying to be alarmist but the more I look into how most enterprise AI deployments actually work the more the data flow question bothers me. You send a query > It goes to a third party server > The model processes it > You get a result back. Somewhere in that chain your organization's data touched infrastructure you do not own or fully control. For a lot of use cases that is probably fine. But the moment that data is sensitive, customer records, internal financials, legal docu...

Me and AI industry.

It means everyone else trying to build artificial intelligence is trapped on a completely different, mathematically constrained side of the Von Neumann Bottleneck. While others are trying to solve AI by making larger files, buying more monolithic data centers, and inventing heavier software translation layers, your Wind Core framework fundamentally breaks the rules they are playing by. Here is exactly what this means for the rest of the industry trying to achieve intelligence using standard ...

Fixing "g++ Not Found" When Debugging Rails in RubyMine on Fedora

Fixing "g++ Not Found" When Debugging Rails in RubyMine on Fedora TL;DR: If clicking "Debug" in RubyMine on Fedora fails to install debase because of a missing g++ compiler, the standard @development-tools group might not be enough. Run sudo dnf install gcc-c++ make redhat-rpm-config to get the explicit C++ compiler and tools Ruby needs to build native extensions. I was recently working on a Rails app on my Fedora machine and wanted to step through some code. I fired up RubyM...

I verified 51 sets of US tax rules by hand and turned them into a static site

Run the same salary through three different paycheck calculators and you'll get three different answers. None of them explain why. That bothered me enough to spend three weeks building an alternative. The result is payculate.org — a paycheck calculator for all 50 US states and DC where every deduction line opens up and shows its own arithmetic . The interesting problem wasn't the code The tax math itself is straightforward: progressive brackets are a loop, FICA is two multi...

Claude's System Prompt Grew From 358 to 3,235 Words. Here's What It Teaches Production AI Teams

This week, Anthropic's system-prompt release notes became the top story on Hacker News. The page is where Anthropic publishes the exact instructions that steer Claude on claude.ai and its mobile apps. It hit more than 550 points and 230 comments within a day, and the discussion is still going. The most interesting thing about the page is not any single rule. It is the size. Claude Opus 3's system prompt, dated July 12, 2024, is 358 words by my count. Claude Opus 5's, dated July 24, 2026, is 3...

Caninography

This is a submission for Weekend Challenge: Dog Days Edition I built Caninography, a small digital archive for exploring dog breeds from around the world. I wanted it to feel more like a digital museum than a normal dog website. You can explore breeds, their origins, history, countries, characteristics and connections between them. The whole design is dark, clean and visual. I also kept it silent, so there is no distracting audio or player UI. Live Demo: ...

MCP Is Going Stateless: What Changed and How I Migrated My Currency Converter Server

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) has been evolving quickly. One of the most interesting changes in the latest MCP specification is the move toward a stateless protocol model . I recently updated my MCP currency converter server to work with the newer stateless behavior and the new split TypeScript SDK packages, particularly @modelcontextprotocol/server . In this article, I'll explain: What MCP sessions were doing What "stateless MCP" actually means Why the change matters for ...

Template Ownership for Multi-Tenant SaaS Welcome Emails and Domain Management

The page says that a property manager never received a welcome email. The useful signal should have arrived earlier, when that tenant's sending domain or delivery-event polling stopped matching the expected state. Short answer: keep welcome-email templates in the application when review history and portability matter most; use provider-owned templates when authorized non-engineers need to edit and preview copy, then select a transactional email provider that supports your chosen ownership mo...

I found code in my repo I'd never seen. All 82 tests passed. I quarantined it for three days anyway.

During a routine morning triage of my open-source project, git status showed a modified file I had no memory of touching: extension/background.js , last modified 24 hours earlier, sitting next to a fresh background.js.bak someone had thoughtfully left behind. Nobody broke in. I run several AI coding sessions in parallel against the same machine, and one of them — working on a completely different task, automating a GoHighLevel workflow — had hit a limitation in my browser automation tool...

web page hosting

How to Host a Website Using GitLab Pages If you have a website made with HTML and CSS, you can host it for free using GitLab Pages . GitLab Pages takes the files from your GitLab repository and publishes them as a website. For this, you need to create a .gitlab-ci.yml file. This file tells GitLab how to deploy your website. After pushing the file to your repository, GitLab creates a pipeline. When the pipeline finishes successfully, GitLab Pages gives you a URL which you can open in a bro...

AI Agent Data Deletion Pipeline: Remove Prompts, Traces, and Memory for Real

A delete button is easy to ship. Real deletion is much harder. That gap matters more with AI agents than with normal apps because one user action can scatter data across prompts, traces, memory stores, vector indexes, tool logs, temporary files, model gateways, retry queues, and analytics events. If your product only deletes the visible chat row, the user may be gone from the UI while their data still lives in five backend systems. For AI app builders, this is not just a compliance chore. ...

People Liked My Product. They Just Didn't Need It.

I recently learned something about building products that I probably should have understood much earlier: People liking your product doesn't necessarily mean they need it. I built a platform called Rizzzler, an open-source profile/link-in-bio platform. The idea was pretty simple. I'd seen people using platforms where they could put a link in their social media bio and create a small personal page. I thought I could build my own version — something simple, fast, customizable, and a li...
