The "10K Rule":

If you can organically build something to 10K subscribers, 10K email list, or $10K profit, then you are set for life.

Not for the audience or money specifically, but for the skills you develop on the way & the persistence required to get there.

Knowing you can do it gives you the confidence you can do anything in life.

STOP BUILDING PRODUCTS NO ONE IS SEARCHING FOR

This guy makes $4.5M/year selling B2B Shopify apps.

Not from ads.
Not from TikTok short form.
Not from building endless features.

But instead, he mastered one platform with millions of users.

And built something people were already searching for.

  1. He picked the right keyword (“bundles”)
  2. Optimized for 5-star reviews
  3. And just built something ppl needed

i love the UI/UX of Kimi K2.5 agent when building websites

it really helps understanding the reasoning behind it, you can check in real time when it creates the 3D visuals, the todo lists, websites components...

Kimi K2 was a solid option for a lot of tasks (even better than Claude at writing for specific use cases)

it looks like K2.5 pushed it even further with agents

I was thinking of building a saas product, and the idea is a bit crowded for sure, and recently another huge indie hacker launched a similar product.

The BEST Business Model for Developers in 2026

The video argues that there's no universally 'best' business model for software engineers, but rather the right model depends on individual circumstances like network, location, and experience. The speaker recommends most engineers start with a service-based model like consulting, which allows them to deeply understand a problem before potentially transitioning to a product-based model like SaaS.

This video provides a strategic framework for indie hackers to systematically evaluate their unique advantages and select the most appropriate business model based on their specific constraints and opportunities.
