When can Cursor have smth like Clippy and tell me when I'm doing something dumb Something like: "Hmm, looks like you're trying to do this... that's wrong" πŸ˜‚ #buildinpublic

Could be an idea for someone delivering Christmas Trees or like the AI suggests, landscaping/tree removal #buildinpublic

What's the new best CMS to self host? I need it to be super simple for clients who find Wordpress too complicated. I spun up Ghost which looked good, but not being able to define and configure a homepage within the Admin interface seems like it might be a miss #buildinpublic

Are there any good html to pdf client side libs out there or are people still using libs which converts the html to images? It feels strange that the print -> Save as pdf option isn't accessible as a browser api #buildinpublic

Finished turning this little Christmas Tree today as a break Definitely not too early to be getting festive right? πŸ‘€πŸŽ„πŸ˜…

Was it only me and my friends who used to sing this in PR reviews? πŸ‘€ Did anyone else read it to the tune? πŸ˜‚ #buildinpublic

Managed to get the cost of my AI api calls down by 93.9% πŸ’ͺ Was it so expensive because I was letting the AI do a lot more parsing than it needed to? Sure, but that's not the point! πŸ˜… #buildinpublic

Some nice domains I saw today on hotdomains.co πŸ˜„ Possibly useful for someone on #buildinpublic Haven't filtered through all of the options, but let me know if you see any you like! Maybe I should add an upvoting system...
