Oooh yes just one long connected sandwich would be amazing. You could do that with outpainting in theory but there would be some load time. Maybe for v2 lol.

I wasn't expecting this level of critique, but dammit you're right. I removed the puppy one. I'm keeping Biden though: tallsandwiches.com/biden

People keep mentioning that one.. he's just nestled snugly back in the toppings! I'll probably remove it.

The value is the network and it's hard to get a person's entire network to move over at once. You're right that most people don't care about "decentralization", but they really care about not losing access to their account, avoiding hate/bullying, and many other things. A Mastodon type decentralized platform where you join the server that best aligns best with your interests/needs is one way to solve this. More friction though, so not sure on what will win out.

Brilliant! I spent so long looking for a screen recording app that could simply follow the mouse and zoom automatically. Thought of building this myself. Good job executing on it so well. Will probably be a customer soon :)

I built something that I wanted and knew I would have paid for: https://divjoy.com ($5-10k/month)

If I was looking for a side hustle now I'd 100% be playing with GPT-3/ChatGPT and building small tools. There's a good chance your first few experiments won't catch on, but that you'll end up being in the right place at the right time, see an opportunity, and already have the code/knowledge to get an MVP out quickly.

A few years ago I was frustrated with how difficult it was to setup a solid React.js stack with auth, payments, etc so I built a codebase generator at https://divjoy.com

It does around $5-10k a month. Fairly passive. A few hours of support a week. Was full-time on it for the first few years, but decided to join a company recently and keep growing this on the side.

Using the phone analogy, Siri is a string with two cups on either end.

Doesn't imply any task, just a wide variety of tasks. 10 years at most.
