tested @beachclubsUAE's mcp server in claude (nov 4, claude code): 5/5 tasks passed, but one data bug hides a family beach from family searches. what works: - connects with no auth, 4 tools exactly as listed - prices and hours match their own website - fake club names get a clean "not found", nothing made up - events come back in dubai time what broke: - jumeirah al qasr is tagged adults-only, but its own page calls it "the ultimate family beach destination". family searches skip it - searching "waterpark" only matches club names. it found 1 club and missed centara mirage, whose own listing says waterpark - the "typo tolerant" lookup only suggests the right club, so claude needs a second call who should care: anyone planning a uae beach day with claude, and anyone building a directory-style mcp (make search read your descriptions, not just names) want your MCP server tested in claude, with a fix list and listings on the main MCP directories? $19, done in 48h, DM me

Small accounts grow faster together. I went from 100 to 3000 followers just by connecting in posts like this. Building with AI? Let's connect. → Devs → Designers → Indie hackers → Vibe coders → Founders Say hi and tell me what you're building 👋

Don’t forget the golden rule If it’s working don’t touch it
last week i pushed an update to my couples app with 1,000+ monthly active users i have been SO HYPE about it, i think its 100x better but some of the reviews from active users say otherwise, so far...

It replaced so much in me that i don’t know what the codesbase atp
claude code has replaced my standup, my code reviews, and most of my personality.

Question for devs: what was the last thing you Googled before AI made Googling optional?

i honestly didn't expect this. someone ranked 259 indie hacker october income posts & i made the top 10. after i posted yesterday, so many people asked me the same thing: "how do i build something of my own?" here's the exact stack i'd use if i was starting from zero today 👇 1. learn claude and get good at prompting 2. build one tiny app with claude code 3. use supabase for your database & logins 4. put it live on vercel 5. add posthog to see what users actually do 6. charge from day one with stripe 7. build in public on x, every single day 8. set up an ai agent for support replies 9. build another one to fix the bugs users report 10. get to your first $10k in 3 months, then double down none of this needs funding or a team. most of it is free to start. tbh i started with zero, a year from now you could be on this list. save this and go build
I read 259 October income posts from indie makers. The numbers nobody screenshots: - Median: $400 - 45% made under $100 from products - Top 10 makers took 52% of all the money - Sponsorships paid more people than X payouts (40 vs 36) Charts 👇

Replying to @trikcode
"build only what's important" is how you end up shipping one button and calling it a platform

The first chatbot, ELIZA, came out in 1966. It mostly rephrased your sentences as questions, and people still confided in it.

i stopped posting threads and my reach went up. one sharp line beats a ten-post thread nobody finishes.

Stack Overflow taught us to copy code we didn't fully understand. AI just made it faster. Same energy, new era.

It’s quite terrifying that you sell our data to DOJ and we don’t say a word
NEW: Sam Altman says it’s “quite terrible” for everyday people to own RAM, arguing it belongs in data centers.
