I'm doing this with my son. Dcflagproject.com Replit for the website (he did the first 80%), Gemini to make the flyers and he'll be walking the neighborhood and talking to neighbors.

It's called foreplay. Jk. I've seen a glass shower where the glass turned to smoked opaque glass with the push of a button. Maybe this shower had something similar? But this is no excuse, still completely awkward and horrible desi

If you want to make a kids app... Forcing the child to do a number of math problems to continue using the tablet would be an amazing app that I would definitely pay for. My daughter is a second grader. If every 5 minutes of tablet use &#x27

My current 'favorite idea I probably won't build' is an sms chat bot that does exactly this for guys in their 30s & 40s. The hard part is actually organizing the group of friends to pick a weekend and location. So a bot t

Not a great joke. Instapaper was really the first one that was read it later. I thought they just it down, but I just switched to Android and Instapaper is (maybe was) only iPhone. Del.icio.us was just bookmarks, no reader for the phone.

I built a side project during COVID and after. I started recording videos explaining everything that's happening in the world for my kids to watch in 20 years. Then I wanted to capture my parents life story. I thought it might be a goo

I think a penny is about the right price. What are the other options and how are those working? 50 percent of email is spam and Gmail has had to create multiple invoices to segment the emails that are probably not going to be read. Snail ma

How do you track and save these numbers? Manually or programmatically?

I think it's a little overstated to call tcr a cartel. Yes, it's a process, but it's gotten a lot better over the last 18 months. People have been complaining about spam text for a long time. There aren't too many folks

I think things could also 'creep' in the other direction where the group communication becomes overwhelming. The article mentions that someone actually sold an item through the WhatsApp group. My worry would be that the WhatsApp g

I'm sure it's on your list, but I think it would be helpful if I could click into the timeline in order to add an event/period of my life. I think there could be a really cool interface expanding years and drilling into certa

The first book I thought about from this prompt is The Fountainhead. It's fiction and was written in the 1940's, but is very relevant to modern times. Very well written and in my opinion this book is better than Atlas Shrugged.

Aren't they doing a 12 days of Christmas thing where they release new features for 12 days? This would fit into that idea. I was thinking earlier today that an agent listening to my calls would be helpful. I was on the phone with a fin

This book really nails it. If you're selling for any startup or fast-growing company this book will have insights.

You can feel ok about replying STOP to text messages from shortcodes. It's not impossible, but it would be an extremely bad process for an organization to have their OTP and their marketing messages (let alone spammy stuff) on the same

There are cheaper and less risky ways to understand if a number is valid. STOP will legitimately unsubscribe the recipient from messages from this phone number.

Text messages don't have an "open" action. Replying STOP will unsubscribe the recipient from future SMS from this number. I have never seen an organization use an unsubscribe as a positive action in their funnel. There are le

Speaking mostly for the US here. The STOP keyword is mandated as unsubscribe at the carrier level (Verizon, ATT, TMo) not just the vendor level. So if you reply STOP, it's very likely that you will not receive another message from that

How would you drip the assets out in the future? What's the mechanism and how would it trigger (in the event of your unfortunate or unexpected demise)?

During the pandemic I started recording videos for my young kids. I imagine they will watch them when they are 25 years old. I think it will be cool to see the young me (then) and get a first hand, 'historical' account of covid, T

While the hustle is admirable, I think you could use more creativity on the outreach plan. Doctors are likely one of the most harried professions in the world. Cold emails to these folks are not going to work well. You have to find a way to

This is why my startup failed. I will add to this, that when I conceived and built the product myself (with dev help of course) I took product shortcomings more personally. It's always a delicate balance between finding customers that
