Craigslist
AppSumo
Oculus
Gumroad

Keep building projects,
You never know when you will strike gold.
Side projects
Silicon Valley is shaking.
So, Deepseek has now reached No 1 spot on the App Store beating Chatgpt.
A “side-project”, with $6M against a company worth multiple billions. It’s Open Source and 95% cheaper too.
The AI bubble is bursting and the moat
Ok Deepseek is looking cool.
But the question is -
Deepseek is a China based AI service. So is there a threat of personal data compromise? Data, is gold, and our data in their hands... might be something to worry about.
What do you think?
