TanStack DB 1.0 RC1 is out! Backend data that feels local: typed collections, live queries, and edits that show up instantly, then sync. Start with your REST API. Add persistence, offline writes, and real-time sync later. Your queries stay the same.

Still figuring out where to more share Hearof. Where do you post your side projects besides X? Reddit, Indie Hackers, somewhere else?

I gave all my Grok Bots a name that fits in the Alien universe, my @poteto dr. eggbot is called Mother for example.

My Hearof launch post got 2 views. Building it was the easy part haha. Now figuring out how to actually get it in front of people.

Building the thing is the easy part now. Getting the first person to care is the real work. Spending more of this week on that side for Hearof. Fixing distribution.

Shipped Hearof yesterday. A few people actually replied, and two ideas were better than my own roadmap: - let users follow a roadmap item, then ping them when it ships - a weekly digest for people who never open the app Both are going on the list. If you ship often and customers miss updates: hearof.dev

Shipped Hearof — public changelog + in-app unread badge so customers actually notice updates. Free + Pro ($19.99/mo). First users welcome: hearof.dev IH: indiehackers.com/post/hearof…

Congrats! CEOs & execs posting to the public directly on 𝕏 is the best way to get your message out and drive product sales. Vastly more powerful and effective than a press release.
Gemini 4 Argon is here. It’s available globally today for developers and enterprises in the paid tier of the Gemini API and the Gemini platform, for Ultra subscribers in Google Antigravity, and Ultra and Pro subscribers in the Gemini app and Search. Hope you all enjoy it!

FIA president Ben Sulayem confirms F1 will return to V8 engines in 2030. The new engines will be around 80kg lighter, with at least 50% lower R&D and engine costs. Turn up the volume and enjoy the sound of 24 V8-powered F1 cars from the 2011 European GP. #F1

Holy shit! Science fiction is real now
Constant communication is what makes autonomy like this safe. Early contact lets us take maneuvering responsibility, publish ephemeris faster than ground radar can catalog the object, and deorbit and keep commanding through demise if needed We treat early communications as a requirement, not a nice-to-have
