I spent a year buying books I couldn't finish. Not because they were bad. Because my brain would drift at sentence 3, snap back at page 5, and I'd realized I'd read nothing. So I built FocusReader. A reading app for brains that drift. Page-flip mode. Anchor emphasis. Read-aloud with sentence sync. 15-min pomodoros. Launching on @ProductHunt Tuesday June 2. focusreader.xyz #ADHD #Dyslexia #ProductHunt #IndieHacker #BuildInPublic #Reading #Productivity #SideProject

I'm so pissed off with my current job that I just want to quit and start a startup but the addiction of the salary and fear of future makes me stay here. I don't know how other entrepreneurs have come out of it

I built 50 apps. Here's how every single one died: Day 1: "This idea is genius. Nobody's doing this." Day 2: I build it. Ship it. Feel unstoppable. Day 3: Zero users. My brain whispers "this isn't worth it. Nobody's going to buy this." Day 4: A shiny new idea shows up. Feels way better than the last one. Day 5: I start building that instead. The first app goes into the graveyard. Repeat 50 times. The problem was never the ideas. The problem is I never validated a single one. Never asked one real person "would you pay for this?" If I had, I'd probably still be working on idea #1. And it might actually be making money.

I've built 50 apps in the last few years. Yoga studio software. Travel journals. Podcast tools. Invoice generators. KDP books. Chrome extensions. Total monthly revenue from all of it: about $20. I'm not saying this for pity. I'm saying it because I know there are thousands of builders like me, shipping into the void, refreshing analytics, seeing zeros. The problem was never my code. It was building things nobody asked for. Starting today, I'm documenting this honestly. No fake MRR screenshots. No "I cracked the code" threads. Just a guy with 50 repos and a lot of lessons. Follow if you want the real version.

Anthropic's head of safety research just said publicly he feels pressured to set aside "what matters most" and that the world is "in peril." That's not a random critic. That's the person whose job it is to make sure this goes right. Hard to scroll past that one.

Introducing Lyria 3, our new music generation model in Gemini that lets you turn any idea, photo, or video into a high-fidelity track with custom lyrics. From funny jingles to lo-fi beats, you can create custom 30-second soundtracks for any moment. See how it works. 🧵

Built this over the weekend: Idea Collision Cards 80 prompts across 3 decks. Draw 2. Combine them. Watch ideas happen. Perfect for solo brainstorms or team workshops. DM me for a free printable kit.

Made my first $10,000 on the internet not with digital products but by selling a service. This is the quickest way to monetize online. Here's why:

Raja Yoga = Training the witness to stay. Karma Yoga = Acting with the witness present. Bhakti Yoga = Loving with the witness present. Jnana Yoga = Knowing you ARE the witness. All yoga is this: The witness, fully here.

I'm building a tool that records your screen and replaces your voice with a professional AI voice - same words, different voice. Made it because I was insecure about my accent when making tutorials. Would anyone use this?

How I Made Progress Addictive (No More Discipline Struggle!) Yesterday, I tried something wild: instead of focusing on one giant scary task, I built momentum using the "breadcrumb method". Here's what I did (and you can too): - Pick 4–6 things you want to work on today—anything you usually put off or overthink. (For me: drafting a thread, reading, clearing my inbox, micro-learning, quick workout.) - Set a 5-minute timer for each—yes, just 5! - Dive in and ONLY focus for those 5 minutes. When the timer's up, stop. Mark your progress with a bold tick in a notebook or app. - Move to the next activity, repeat. Every tick is a micro-win—a dopamine hit for your brain! - Watch what happens: I hit the end of my "breadcrumb trail" and suddenly *wanted* to keep going. The sense of progress was addictive. - Result: What started as "just 5 minutes" turned into a flow state—and bitesized wins stacked up faster than slogging away at a big task. TL;DR: Make your day a treasure hunt for micro-wins. Don't force discipline, build addictive momentum with breadcrumbs. Give this a try today and share what micro-win you nailed first! 👇
