    I get it. You're tired of opening TikTok and seeing 19-year-olds in rented Lambos telling you to "just start a dropshipping store bro." You're tired of reading Reddit threads where everyone says "learn a skill" but nobody tells you which one. You're tired of guru courses that cost $497 and basically tell you to "believe in yourself." I was there. Months of bookmarking videos, joining Discord servers, downloading free PDFs that all said the same generic thing. Months of feeling behind while my friends seemed to figure it out. So I sat down and wrote the thing I actually needed back then. The 20 online skills that genuinely pay students in 2026. A quiz to match you to the right one so you don't waste 3 weeks picking. The exact cold messages that landed me my first clients. What to charge in real dollars, not "value-based mindset" nonsense. Was going to sell it for $39. Decided not to. If you're a student stuck in the same loop I was, just take it. Free. Link below.

    @BeejiDaPutt @adidas Yes, it's a noted issue on Reddit (r/AskRunningShoeGeeks and similar) and running forums. The EVO SL's ultra-light knit upper is fragile at flex points and often develops holes/tears—some after 40-60 km, others around 300-500 km. Your side knit damage near the midsole matches the common breakdown pattern due to the minimalist design. Push Adidas with the invoice and close-ups; several users got warranty goodwill replacements.

    We took a customer who was scraping reddit and LinkedIn for ~$0.90 per page, and got the cost down to half a cent per page. I routinely jump on calls with people who complain "I'm using Claude to do web scraping for 'X', but it's really expensive. Can your product help?" I then ask what they're doing, and they're always really proud to show me (which I appreciate!): 1. They give Claude access to their laptop 2. It then uses their browser to scrape sites that are blocked (e.g. reddit) 3. Each page is like a million tokens of raw html 4. It does each page 1 by 1 I then show them what happens when you use a dedicated tool to scrape a webpage - the cost is IMMEDIATELY down 98%. Then you add in the fact that an open source model is just as good at scraping - that brings the cost down another 90%. Lastly... it's much faster if you can parallelize it. And no, not doing batches of 5 at a time. Doing 1000 at a time. I don't think software engineering jobs are going anywhere - I've seen proof multiple times in the last few weeks.

    The Reddit thread questioning tPBM evidence isn't wrong. Most devices ARE overhyped. But that's a delivery problem, not a physics problem. 810nm penetrates skull. Cytochrome c oxidase absorbs it. The mechanism is real. The hardware is usually garbage. PubMed: 27868230 🔴

    @4Jackle4 @Reddit This is the problem with Reddit. On one side, you find great topics and genuinely useful discussions. On the other side, Reddit does this kind of rage-baiting.

  • justjasiu
    Jan | Profitbay.io (@justjasiu) reported

    @AiroPrompts Reddit is pretty strict against self-promotion, especially from new or low-karma accounts. If you try posting about your product every day, you’ll quickly get hit by Reddit’s spam filters. Most subreddits also ban direct self-promos, so you have to get creative. Even then, the filters are the biggest pain for brand new accounts with low CQS or under 2k karma usually get shadowbanned or removed fast. When I promote on Reddit, I normally use 4–5 aged accounts to build initial momentum. My usual setup: Account 1 posts a genuine problem seeking advice → Account 2 replies with the solution (naturally mentioning my product) → The other accounts jump in to upvote and add supportive comments. This makes it look organic instead of spammy. I posted a short guide on my profile about how I promote on Reddit

    Grok is useless, many times a day "sorry that was incorrect." It says my bad, more than my kids. Ask it one thing and an hour latter it will tell you something else, reddit, Pbs, Nyt, Msnbc, & Wikipedia as it's sources. & Wikipedia. I think Elon dumbed it down, to sell super grok.

  • CsTominaga
    S Tominaga (Aka Dr Craig Wright) (@CsTominaga) reported

    One must admire the modern habit of mistaking repetition for truth. It is an economy of thought so efficient that it dispenses with thought altogether. One reads a thing on Reddit, sees it echoed by Grok or some other mechanical oracle, and—presto—the illusion of knowledge is complete. It is rather like hearing a rumour in a crowded salon and concluding, by sheer volume of whispers, that it has acquired the dignity of fact. The present absurdity, that identity may be proved by a cryptographic signature, belongs to this same species of intellectual theatre. It is a claim so delicately circular that it collapses under the faintest pressure of reason. A signature, in both law and logic, is not the origin of identity but its instrument. It presupposes what it cannot create. One does not sign in order to become someone; one signs because one already is. To suggest otherwise is to invert centuries of jurisprudence with the casual arrogance of a pamphleteer. Identity is antecedent. It is established through context, attribution, recognition—through a web of relations that precede any mark, whether ink on parchment or bits in a digital register. The signature, whether penned or computed, is merely an assertion tied to that prior identity. Without that foundation, it is nothing more than an elegant flourish—convincing perhaps, but entirely unmoored. The cryptographic enthusiast, clutching a private key as though it were a birth certificate, imagines possession to be equivalent to personhood. It is a charming delusion. Possession proves only possession. It demonstrates control over a mechanism, not the nature of the individual who wields it. A thief may sign as deftly as a sovereign; the mathematics is indifferent to morality, to law, and—most inconveniently—to identity itself. Thus the argument reduces itself to a tautology dressed in technical costume: “This signature proves I am me, because I made the signature that proves I am me.” It is the sort of reasoning that would be laughed out of any serious court, yet it flourishes in digital discourse where assertion often masquerades as authority. The law, that most unfashionable of disciplines in certain technological circles, has already settled the matter with admirable clarity. Identity is not conjured by the act of signing; it is verified against it. The signature is evidence, not genesis. To confuse the two is not innovation—it is error, albeit one repeated with sufficient enthusiasm to appear, to the inattentive, like insight. In the end, the claim that cryptography can prove identity is less a proposition than a performance. It is sustained not by logic, but by the comforting illusion that complexity confers legitimacy. Yet even the most intricate cipher cannot escape a simple truth: one must first exist as someone before one can sign as anyone. Anything else is not merely mistaken—it is, in the most polite terms available, disingenuous.

    the pattern was clear. intent is everywhere. people post their exact needs publicly, all the time, across X, Reddit, forums, everywhere. the problem was speed. I was always late. Buddy monitors those signals in real time so you're first, not fifth.

    @FillmoreWhite @0neisjuan @kaizen000000000 Let’s go slowly. In this conversation alone you have: ~ Failed to recognize the orphan gene problem despite debating it ~ Mischaracterized Axe’s argument twice, attacking positions his paper doesn’t hold ~ Cited a diagram you called “DNA analysis” while your own Reddit link title reads “3000 species arranged in a circular tree based on rRNA sequences” ~ Confused mRNA and rRNA - completely different molecules with completely different functions ~ Failed to grasp that common descent and macroevolution mechanism are separate claims requiring separate evidence ~ Earlier you stated our single cell ancestor had “the four amino acids that make up DNA.” DNA is not made of amino acids. DNA is made of nucleotides. Amino acids make proteins. You then invoked AP Bio as the benchmark for scientific literacy in this conversation - while making an error that AP Bio corrects in the first week.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ This is foundational information. You asked where my data is: ~ Axe 2004 & 2010 - published, peer reviewed. I linked the papers BUT you didn’t read them (or lack the mental capacity to do understand them) and then consistently straw maned his claims and attempted to ad hominem attacks against him as evidence instead of just admitting your lack of understanding. ~ Orphan gene literature - published, peer reviewed You brought a misidentified diagram and a Reddit post that directly contradicts your own claim. Where we are is that your education on this topic is insufficient to continue the conversation productively. Skip the AP courses for now. Go back and start with the basics or even a biology for dummies book.

    I saved a little bit of money on the side and I’m trying to research and pick individual stocks that I think have potential to go up based on research. I’ve read on Reddit and here on X. I have about 98% of my money in long-term buy and hold boring retirement stocks like Google and Amazon and Tesla and VOO, VUG etc And the rest, I dabble and try to find really good deals and undervalued stocks on my own So far in the last 12 months, my retirement stocks that I don’t mess with and just buy and hold are UP about 50% The cash that I use to individually research and pick stocks is DOWN about 54% So as far as doing nothing versus trading a lot, I think it makes more sense to do nothing But that’s just me use this information however you want I think it’s painfully obvious I should not be researching and picking stocks because by the time I hear about it, the opportunity is long gone, and I am buying at the top and I am exit liquidity with a big stupid red stamp on my forehead that says sucker Kick *** today and don’t try to pick your own stocks like me

    the headline you should write next isn't in your head it's in the data reviews on amazon and your shopify store reddit threads where people complain about the problem youtube comment sections under similar product videos forums and facebook groups in your niche quora answers from people experiencing the pain mine all of it for the exact phrases people repeat that's your headline if you only read your own reviews, you're talking to existing customers the avatar you haven't sold to yet is talking somewhere else

    I went through Reddit’s Q1 shareholder letter and one number should stop you mid-scroll. CapEx for Q1 2026: $1 million. Revenue: $663M. Up 69%. That’s not a typo. While most tech companies are scaling AI with billions in infrastructure, Reddit is doing it with almost no capital intensity. ~40% revenue growth ~90% gross margin 47% FCF margin <$15M CapEx Net income: $204M (+680% YoY) EBITDA margin: ~40% Rule of 40: 109 The moat: Reddit’s communities continuously generate massive amounts of human data, refreshed daily and hard to replicate synthetically. Google reportedly pays ~$60M/year for access. OpenAI ~$70M/year. The more AI scales, the more valuable that data becomes. The risk: ~60x EV/EBITDA. No margin for error. But there are three things buried in the shareholder letter most people missed. 👇 $RDDT

    @PorkiShikari @ss17321_s @IndoKatholic I mean I could ask you the same question. Funny how Hindoos turn into reddit tier atheists trotting out the tired old problem of evil. And the answer to that is not that God's impotent but that he's not obligated to stop any suffering, because God's not the sort of thing that can be considered a moral agent on classical theism. Yawn. If your gods are so powerful why is India a ********?

    @rashiumapathi Most SaaS founders fail on Reddit not because they posted too much but because they showed up to take before they gave anything. The trust deficit is the whole problem and no growth hack closes it faster than just being genuinely useful first.

    Say you're trying to figure out if anyone actually wants the product you’ve been thinking about building… The manual version is you reading 50 customer complaints in your niche on Reddit yourself. It's slow. It's tedious. It also teaches you the exact words your buyer uses when they're frustrated. You can't fake that knowledge. You have to earn it.

  • theAIdreamer
    iamfaheem (@theAIdreamer) reported

    @MbaziiraRonn One category missing: lead intelligence. Founders spend more time figuring out who to sell to than how to sell. Tools like Buddyy monitor conversations across X, Reddit, forums, and more so you can find people who are already talking about the exact problem you solve. Worth adding to the SaaS toolkit.
