How am I doing? Can't believe I use Opus 5.5 that much more than GPT-6.1 Sol. Its crazy how good Opus has felt.
Apple rejected Parley!
Parley's AI could block your distracting apps using Screen Time. Tell it, "Keep me off TikTok till 5pm", and it did.
App Review flagged it under Guideline 2.5.1: those APIs are for parental control apps, and Parley isn't one 馃У
The annoying part is that I'd already been approved for the Screen Time entitlement.
They still rejected it. Approval isn't enough on its own; Apple wants blocking to be the app's main purpose, as it is for Opal. Parley is an AI assistant that happened to block apps, so it didn't count.
One week into clipping. About 4,000 views, 3 Instagram followers and $0 lol. Most of my YouTube Shorts are getting single digit views
Frankie used to ask before every single change. Great until you're on a voice call with it and theres no Approve button. Now it just does it. Finding pain points to the customer experience while testing is key. People who vibe code and then launch without testing will fail quickly!
So I have somewhat fixed my Grok Bot usage to a degree still burned 21% and it鈥檚 only Wednesday and I didn鈥檛 use it at all yesterday aside from routines. But that has involved basically offloading coding to my vps and video editing to my vps. So Grok Bot is basically just an orchestrator at this point still good though.
Revelo+ started as a 3D puzzle game. Binned it after 22 days and made Season One a bottle flip game instead 馃槀 Free practice at reveloplus.com/play
Starting 3 open source projects and 2 of them are for Aussies 馃嚘馃嚭
> An open Australian property data toolkit. NSW sales, council planning apps and ABS stats in one place, with an MCP server so your AI can actually query it
> A free rental application kit built for the new VIC and NSW rules. No fees, standard form, renter privacy sorted
> Plus a dashboard for your whole team's AI spend with budget caps
Built here, free for everyone. Repos going up as they land
Building anything with Aussie property data is a nightmare. It's scattered across a dozen government sites and nothing talks to each other.
So I'm building an open Australian property data toolkit. NSW sales, council planning apps and ABS stats in one place, with an MCP server so your AI can actually query it. Free
Full time job, run a real estate agency, and every night I'm building:
> Frankie, a CRM with an AI colleague you just talk to. Rebuilt from scratch, v2 is 4,793 commits in 77 days
> Parley, my AI chat app. Built for iPhone, iPad, Mac and web in 28 days
> Revelo+, puzzle game, live 4 days after the first commit. Season One is FLIP! with a $500 prize
> Clipping on the side. 1 week in, ~4,000 views, $0 made 馃槀
Posting the real numbers, fuckups and money from here on
Swearing Inbound I apologise in advance. Dear @awscloud @awsdevelopers your products are the biggest pile of shits in the whole fucken Industry. It鈥檚 so fucken hard to do anything relatively simple or basic let alone your console home. @JeffBezos how about instead of fucking dating woman 50 years younger than your bald billionaire ass you make at least a half decent product for the people that put you in your bitch ass position in the first place. Sincerely a paying customer that can鈥檛 even do something basic like logon to you aws mobile app.
Turns out nobody wants a long clip lol. Cut them way tighter and my Reels finally started getting plays. Going to be posting more content on how I am using grokbot to "hopefully make some money" so follow I guess lmao
I'm trying to make money clipping podcasts without doing any of the clipping myself. $0 so far lol. Gonna document the whole thing. I am using Grokbot for the whole thing.
Bruh as soon as I started using GPT a6.1 - Terra to do my computer use I don鈥檛 know wtf is going on but it leaves it鈥檚 grubby little hands all over my Mac and fucks everything up. It doesn鈥檛 properly disconnect, is probably the biggest issue I have. @sama @thsottiaux is this a bug?
