everyone seems to be building the same thing now. standard sandbox horizontal agent tools imessage/slack feels like the vibe-coding app builder hype phase. no moat. lots of competitors. going deep in an area (e.g interface or use case) is the only way to win.

opening a few more spots in our beta for endstack.com what endstack is not: > yet another agent sandbox chat input -> omg agent computer > a high maintanence, technical agent that you need to babysit what endstack is: > actual cloud desktop that runs endOS(our own web OS - think chrome OS) > access from any browser/device or through our native clients > gpu-accelerated chrome > zero-maintenance agent integrated at the OS level that runs 24/7 > thousands of integrations out of the box > support for realtime collaboration - one desktop, multiple users > built on top of linux, full root access dm me if you're agent-pilled and frustrated with your current agent setup. or even if you just wanna taste of the future. $100/month/desktop we subsidize your agent's tokens while in beta.

Introducing Cosmic Auth. Beautiful, customizable, no-code authentication and user management built right into all your @endstack apps. All vibe coders deserve a tasteful, free, simple-to-use auth.

One of the best ways to tell if your product is truly useful to users is to see how much they are willing to put up with to keep using it. If a user sticks around even after: 1. Being unable to sign in to their account 2. Had some projects accidentally deleted 3. Couldn't deploy their site for 3 days ...and they still pay you AND they use your product actively over 3 months, it's a good sign.

lots of vibe coding tools promise 'tasteful design' but have no taste themselves and suck. we're trying to make one that doesn't look bad and doesn't suck. lots of exciting new things to share over the next few days!

UIs don't have to be flat and boring. Trying something new.

we spent $120,000 to hire a hot Korean actor to tell you about @endstack use AI to build tasteful, functional websites without the hassle of setting up payments, building a backend, or writing code. for every like we have to pay him an additional $10

why is he complaining, 30hr/day of work is nothing. he should be grateful for his job

i overwork and exploit my co founder. i'm allowed to do that because he's my little bro. and he can't do anything about it cause i have all his ugly baby pics

first impressions, gpt-5 is worse than claude 4 opus inside cursor, by a lot. for example, it used 10 tool calls to read irrelevant files only for it to fail its task compared to opus, which only read 3 files and in 1/3 of the time wrote correct code. will keep testing.

finding google's various ai products is so much more confusing than openai's naming problem. flow, ai studio, jules, notebook LM, gemini, firebase studio, etc. why are they separate things? it should just be one platform that has everything.

extremely gratifying to see our users starting to generate revenue and receive payouts on Cosmic for the first time. i love that we're building something that provides tangible value to users!

went to a dinner at a korean restaurant in SF and everybody went to harvard or... oh right there's no korean food in sf

the barrier to entry for writing code is so low now. there is no such thing as a technical moat. the only real moat is how good looking are you and how much can you bench.

don't really agree. 1. given how much more productive ai has made me, if i was scaling a team, the last thing i would do is hire a bunch of junior devs. id rather hire a one or two really cracked engineers and give them claude code cursor. 2. its purely hype to think any form of autonomous ai is gonna fully "replace programmers" anytime soon. humans at some level will at least be reviewing some form of code(maybe even just spec sheets) that ai writes. people need to face reality that ai IS changing how we code and hire. but also... set realistic expectations.

it's sad to hear about early stage founders who are ending entire friendships just because they are competing with each other. you really just sacrificed an entire relationship to go from a 1% to a 1.0001% chance of succeeding... it's not worth it.

we should really stop pretending that the influx of sloppy code is just because of ai. the equivalent pre-llms was just vibe-copying and pasting from stack overflow and random github repos. slop has always been around. ai just increased overall output (good bad code)

a high schooler told me he’s doing “ai cancer research” huh?? what kind of legitimate cancer research are you doing as a high schooler? then proceeds to tell me most students in his high school are doing similar research. something isn’t right.
