Let me start from the creator s perspective:
I personally don t have a product (apart from hiring people for creative work or offering personal consultations).

But as a creator, I constantly share content, insights, and information, value that helps me build trust (for free). Based on that perceived expertise, people eventually decide to work with me (a paid service).

With the advent of clawdbots, it's as if we've all lost our inhibitions and "put our lives completely in their hands."

I'm all for delegating work, but not giving them too much personal/sensitive stuff to handle.

If you re launching today, the leaderboard is about to get a lot more interesting.

We are running a Randomized Day to give products launching more of an opportunity to get seen!

The Mechanics

To level the playing field, we are cycling the homepage layout throughout the day:
The Loop: This cycle repeats every 30 minutes, all day long.

There are so many launches on Product Hunt every day. How do you decide which ones are worth clicking into?

I am a Computer Science student doing research into how solopreneurs and small startups create new apps and what their stack looks like. Particularly, I'm interested in how you handle things like authentication, billing, and permissions/authorization in your apps.

Let me know what you're working on below and how you're going about it -- I'd love to connect for some quick calls to learn about your product and talk about your process in building it!

I was on a call with a founder and they asked me to turn on my camera on Google Meet.

I said no citing that they have brought in the call recorder without my consent. I consent for voice recording and summarizing, not video capture.

Since I haven't been able to meet my work goals very well in the last few quarters, I now plan to approach them more systematically and not push myself too hard on work goals, as that ultimately led to problems that made my plan less sustainable.

So here is my structure and list:

I've noticed a trend where CEOs of well-known companies are investing more in their personal brands on LinkedIn and X.

However, the level is increasing, and they want something similar from employees.

I've been going through hell for the last month. I was banned from LinkedIn for excessive activity.

• For 24 hours

• For 48 hours

• For 72 hours

• For 168 hours - currently waiting until Tuesday, 10 PM CET.

The only useful advice I've received from support is to be less active.

I keep hearing and reading about how programmers are at risk; basically, everything that can be replaced by AI is at risk.

• Yesterday, Lenny Rachitsky shared a post that PM openings are at the highest levels since 2022.

• At the same time, I read how big giants (Meta, Amazon, etc.) are laying off engineers because of AI, and then I read about how they had to hire back again because something managed by AI went wrong.
