What is actually a “complex problem” for LLMs?

I keep seeing advice like use this model for the easy stuff and that one for complex problems. But it makes me wonder what really counts as a complex problem for an LLM?

For us, complex usually means lots of steps, deep reasoning, or tricky knowledge. But for AI, the definition might be different. Some things that feel easy for us can be surprisingly hard for models, while things that seem tough for us (like scanning huge datasets quickly) might be trivial for them.

What’s the easiest no-code tool for handling subscriptions + payments?

Hey Makers I m exploring options for managing subscriptions, payments, and authentication in a super simple way. Ideally, something that s: 1. No-code / low-code friendly 2. Easy to integrate without a ton of setup 3. Handles the boring stuff like billing, invoicing, cancellations, and user access automatically I ve looked at a few tools, but many feel too heavy for a small MVP. Curious to know: What are you using right now? Any lightweight tools that worked really well for your early-stage product? Bonus if it has a generous free tier or is affordable for indie founders. Would love to hear what s working for this community before I commit to something!

How to build relationships with influencers when you want to promote your product?

This is more of a feedback for marketers who are trying to establish contact with bigger influencers.

Thanks to my experience from "both sides", I noticed certain patterns that could work better and satisfaction would be on both sides. :)

Why do most landing pages fail — is it design, speed, or messaging?

I ve been diving deep into how founders launch their first products, and one thing stands out:

Most landing pages don t work.

  • Some look good, but load slow.

  • Some are fast, but the message doesn t connect.

  • Others nail the copy, but the design feels off and doesn t build trust.

As someone building my own startup right now, I ve been obsessed with this question:

The psychology of second launches - anyone else terrified? 😅

Hey PH community!

Random thought while I'm overthinking everything: second launches hit different than first ones.

If code is easier to generate, what roles become the real bottleneck now?

Being an engineer myself, I see that many people are outputting more code than ever. Some of it being generated vs. written, the volume of code being outputted has definitely risen. 
There seems to be a shift from "is this something we can build?" to "should we build this and ship it?"
For people who have been recruiting or looking to recruit recently, what roles are you hiring for? 

  1. Role title (I've seen a rise in PM's and Designers personally)

  2. What exactly can they do that AI can't (yet)

  3. Specific signal that you look for when hiring

Are you moving headcount from one type of role to another? 
Would be interested to hear from other growing teams!
