    Didn't the price range drop from $600-$700 in an earlier reply to $100-$120? I suppose the expensive beans are special somehow, then?

    ChatGPT / AI / MidJourney Creation Repository: Share Your Useful Creations

    - AI - 
    For people still interested in Midjourney ... hands come out better (most of the time) now. You can select pretty much all the interesting aspect ratios. Web design inspiration is the weakest area in my opinion. There is still an incentive in place that allows you to get bonus "fast hours" if...

    I don't get it. Probably a lot ... no, all of what I am trying to say gets lost in translation to forum post text. I saw this as a thread that asks where people are on their journey towards their first sale and how they feel at the moment. Yeah, I suppose that is not the case. This is just...

    ChatGPT AI is a huge breakthrough, a Google killer

    - AI - 
    Even as a paying customer I can often not log in. This time, at first it said that it is because they are receiving more requests than they are comfortable with. Now it says "There could be a misconfiguration in the system or a service outage.". Has anybody watched the Lex Fridman interview...

    What if we could make Reading a lot smoother?

    MINDSET 
    I have read "Become a SuperLearner: Learn Speed Reading & Advanced Memorization" which touches on both speed reading and how to improve retention - wasn't that impressed with the retention part, back then. I prototyped a little on "playtexts.com" ... I wanted to break down RSS feeds into...

    I get that I need tp figure things out and that I need to do the work. And I am trying things and I have been trying to apply all the advice on this forum for years. Maybe I had the wrong impression that this thread is about figuring out sticking points - and since I have clocked enough time...

    I am not saying they don't mean well. I am saying that the advice is wrong or insufficient. "You make excuses" is not actionable. I still don't see a path to reach escape velocity. If you just want to worship forum vips and can't handle people who don't bow down and instead ask follow up...

    Have not heard of it and would have to see the specifics, but I am trying GoalSumo for habits and the issue is that there is always just complete chaos in my mind and no clarity emerges. Don't feel like I am able to get any closer to a launch, almost as if I am stuck in the mud. I can numb my...

    Can't decide what should i spend my time learning (general programming advice required)

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Agee with most points. I feel what is missing is that getting into desktop software development could be an option too. Electron can be used to build a MVP. But then Python would not be the best choice. In most cases it makes sense to familiarize yourself with Linux and using command line...

    I have been looking at that thread and considered going for it but I have been ping ponging between just getting that first sale projects and going back to working on the SaaS all the time. When I played the thought, I couldn't find a product that I could create. Been through this many times...

    I keep saying I have been trying to apply the advice all these years. I keep coming up with plans. I keep plotting. I keep working on my SaaS. I have worked on the mindset and been enthusiastic and hopefull hundreds of times. I show up for GoalSumo every day. I can't get any closer to a product...

    Yeah, can't get the story in the books about the move to a different location where the sun shines out of my mind. But then again, there is the story about your past being like a tree trunk ... something that can't be changed. Feels like that is the case. Can't talk for JLE, but when it comes...

    I am probably in an emotional state where I should not write such a comment, but the whole JLE vs the world discussion is really getting to me. It is so easy to say the issue are excuses and that it is a mindset issue. My whole experience with mindset is that it is a result of your...

    The SVB (Silicon Valley Bank) Failure, Nothingburger? Or More?

    HOT! INVESTING 
    I keep reading that it is a get woke, go broke story. Does anybody have more info about what exactly they did wrong? Have not read of anything specific that says the greed was off the charts or that there was extreme negligence. Just that startups withdrew a lot of money in a short amount of...

    That is what I have been trying to do and it is not sustainable. Nothing matters when you are 42 and don't have a social life or the prospect of one. My capacity for gratitude is limited. I am allowed to get up at 6 a.m. and work until my eyes hurt like hell every day. Awesome. I have started a...

    Not convinced there is such a thing as "professional help" ... what could they fix? My experience with this is that there is a person facing you that can't relate in the least and tells you that you should not actually want the things you want and that you should take pills that don't help at all.

    I have many ideas that I know could be worth a lot, but I find no way to bootstrap any because I can't find an appealing feature set for an MVP that can be developed on the side. Figuring out payment processing that complies with all the laws is one of the hurdles that makes me want to kill...

    Have not seen huge improvements with the few things I have attempted, but some minor ones. Thought that multimodal would be an interesting aspect, but it seems that will be limited to images in prompts and image modifications ... but since it is still a topic they study, they don't seem to...
