Tons of great products that we know and use everyday are the result of pivots. You know, sometimes the original idea just isn't working and you have to find a new niche and quick, other times you stumble on a use case that changes the whole game.

Have you ever pivoted? What's the story behind it? How successful was the pivot? I'd love to hear your stories, and potentially feature them in our newsletters!

I may be wrong, but a few years ago, job opportunities were promoted here by companies when they wanted to find someone to join their team.

This is also a question for founders or companies:

Would it make sense to onboard tech-savvy or business-oriented people from here?

ICYMI: 1x launched the NEO Gamma, a new generation of humanoid robots that are designed to help out with things at the home like doing the laundry, cleaning, putting up photos, etc. This is the kind of stuff I used to dream about as a kid but now as an adult I'm not sure if I want a robot walking around my house. Would you let one in and what do you think about home robots? Think they have a future or is it going to be a hype train before fizzling out?

@rajiv_ayyangar and I have talked a lot about what applications, devices, and codebases have most influenced our thinking and careers. Photoshop is high on that list for me.
For many years it was the most reliable application I used regularly, bar none. In a world where we just expected the Windows blue screen and the little Mac unhappy icon to happen regularly, Photoshop never crashed. Even though both its feature set complexity and working data set size were much larger than most other apps of the time.
Photoshop was also truly cross platform. It worked the same way on Windows and Mac. This is hard!
It had a plugin system. Indie developers built great extensions for Photoshop.
And it had a credits screen that you saw every time the app loaded, with the names of all the programmers who worked on it!

I ve been playing around with it, and it s wild how fast it spins up a full-stack app from a prompt. But I m wondering:

• How well does it generate code for real-world use?

• Any prompting tips to get better results?

• How does it compare to others like Lovable?

Also, do you think tools like Bolt (full app generation) are the future, or will the Cursor-style coding assistant approach win out?

Would love to hear from anyone who's pushed this beyond a test project!

One of the biggest pain points in AI chatbots has been their forgetfulness having to repeat the same context over and over again. AI memory aims to solve this by allowing models like ChatGPT and the newly launched Gemini to retain past interactions.

But how well do these memory features work? Which AI ChatGPT or Gemini handles memory better? And more importantly, does AI memory provide more value in personal use or enterprise settings?

Hi PHers, happy Monday!

HEAR THIS - A few days ago, I was coding some stuff on my desk, and then as usual, I went on Youtube :P I was getting a brain fog from all the random stuff there, lol, but then I came across this nerdy dude from Europe with a psychedelic tshirt on, saying he got story telling figured out. I was like, FINALLY im gonna be able to get potential users to engage with my stuff. I took a coffee sip, ate my peanut butter and started watching the video. I need to admit...the things that guy said, and the examples he gave got me HOOKED.

I hate to say it and I don't want to sound pessimistic (but it's probably happening already :D)...

with all the conveniences we have, we are so fast and unfortunately also comfortable.
