News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

I believe the market heavily overreacted.

A drop made sense, but I think it may have been the tipping point for most holders that had survived the months of onslaught.

They wanted a reason to get out, and their portfolio dropping by 10% in a day was just that.

As we see by the premarket's resurgance, eg AMD up 7% premarket (as of now), other people may have realized the overreaction aswell.

I'm so fucking tired. I built this tool, it's great, I love it, but its full capabilities are too complex to udnerstand. Because of that I struggle with marketing, as everyone is too lazy to try it out. Because of that I get no feedback, nothing to improve, and I can't make the tool any simpler, as otherwise it defeats the magic behind it.

I think for the meantime you are right, and its been the philosophy i had been applying to my work. However recently I'd been reconsidering this, as AI gets increasingly capable of designing the architecture better than me, ofcourse not yet perfect, but scarily good. I find myself just reading over and approving the architecture it proposed based on the initial idea i gave it. Funnier thing is i had been building a tool that attempts to replace me in my work, maybe it's to blame.

and what did you in between reaching out to people you now and getting 1000 users? also what type of project is it?

1)I own 2x claude, 1x codex and 1x gemini. Whenever i need more AI usage, i buy another claude (smallest plan) and then have a script auto alternate between them. This is because cheapest subscription gives most weekly usage per $.

2)no, you dont need an API key if you know how to use your subscription to replace it

3)I tried many; from opencode, warp, paseo, orca to openclaw, hermes, etc. I always end up returning to the default claude and codex.

4) kinda an orchestration tool, i have one to oversee my entire business (Varyz AI), it constantly makes content, fixes bugs based on feedback and etc (spawning agents to do so).
