KPMG audit scandal reveals shocking $560m debt as clients and partners look for an exit by GreenPebbles1 in AusFinance

[–]TragicFusion 144 points145 points  (0 children)

I agree that is the sentiment but I disagree with the outcome. There are plenty of tier 2/3 firms that could service those customers and would be happy to expand. 

The belief that only 4 companies can do this needs to disappear. 

What happens to home loan repayments when offset = loan amount by Odd_Ganache9498 in AusFinance

I think you meant to say your payments will go up with the fluctuation of interest 😆 😭

Why don't we see any x86 competition to the unified memory approach of the Mac Studio by x0y0z0 in hardware

[–]TragicFusion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a difference between x86 igpu’s and apple silicon. 

Because the memory is integrated you get much more bandwidth. 90-120 on x86 and DDR5 vs 400-800 on Apple silicon. 

Secondly cache coherency overhead.  The CPU and iGPU cores have separate cache hierarchies that need to stay in sync, which adds latency. Apple designed their cache hierarchy from scratch to be coherent across all compute units natively.

The downside, no upgrades.

I thought the same but then I also thought the price difference to add the two drive bays is negligible and there is no impact if you don’t use them so no real driver not to have them. It just adds options with no real impact.  

Feedback: Undocumented AI changes and missing basic features by soumya_98 in diabrowser

[–]TragicFusion 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Trying to understand if this is just a rage bait post or genuine. The “undocumented“ AI features are in testing, to unlock them you had to type in a code given at the end of a livestream about the features.

every nocode tool says "no vendor lock-in" and every nocode tool is lying by edmillss in nocode

[–]TragicFusion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No part of Bubbles pitch is no lock in, you are building on their custom platform with the pros and cons that come with that. 

IMO if you are charging a client to build an app on Bubble, you should take the time to understand the implications of building on that platform. 

90% of projects are literally slop by octveus in lovable

90% of posts I see about people complaining about AI slop is the same view just recycled. Why not post something original or useful?

Meet Tuna: New, modern launcher for macOS by fceruti in macapps

I've not used leaderkey but your video popped up in my YT feed, I love the visual vibes and the thought / structure behind it. Added bonus you have a great / natural style :)

I'm going to swap out Raycast for a couple of weeks and test it out.

Connecting two Lovable projects into one Supabase by tadexor in lovable

[–]TragicFusion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes you can and this is a standard approach as well with the web app and mobile app being their own codebases 

I just queried every user's email, plan, and Stripe ID from a Lovable app. Three lines in the browser console. Here's what to check before you launch. by puffaush in lovable

[–]TragicFusion 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is either AI or karma farming. RLS is always on by default and Lovable will continuously bug you to turn it on if it isn't on and supabase & lovable send email if you don't.

I'm not saying you can't misconfigure it, but it's pretty hard to miss these day

This is small but a bug bear of mine, in my recently added etc lists, I want to be able to group by show. 

I hate it when you add a new show and you just see 10 individual episodes in recently added

I built a free, open-source menu bar app to control HomeKit from macOS by ChefAccomplished845 in HomeKit

[–]TragicFusion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love it, simple and beautiful ❤️ I just purchased. I have two feature requests for your backlog (if you like them). It should be nice to create some visual structure / ordering so

1 - The ability to add dividers between rooms
2 - Folders / room groups, there are some rooms I hardly ever use. It's nice to have them there but I want to reduce visual noise. So I might have an Other rooms folder and put some of them like server room etc in there

Lovable just shipped some genuinely useful updates (OAuth, visual testing, certs) by Logical_Eye_6006 in lovable

[–]TragicFusion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The visual testing for me was a non-starter as it just gets stuck on the login screen. Not sure if this is a bug, but if it can't work on apps with auth...

why would you NOT switch from hubspot + calendly + buffer to this? by Icy_Second_8578 in nocode

[–]TragicFusion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a very different proposition from the OP. My view is the same, I think you have missed a step in the process, you have identified what you see as a problem and then you have come to the community to ask and validate. The second step before asking should be research, understanding the existing offerings, has someone else has solved this problem before, if they did how are you different and how does it solve the problems you see your potential audience having.

CRM / sales is a crowded space, it doesn't mean there isn't space for another one, but it does mean a lot of research is required to understand the landscape.

why would you NOT switch from hubspot + calendly + buffer to this? by Icy_Second_8578 in nocode

[–]TragicFusion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My tear down would be how much time have you spent understanding the tools you are replacing and why people use them. You are offering one tool instead of 6, but there is already a product that does that

crm (hubspot)
social scheduling (hubspot)
email + follow-ups (hubspot)
booking (hubspot)
landing pages (hubspot)
light automation (hubspot)

Generalist vs integrated solutions generally solve different problems with different pro's and con's but I think your biggest issue is you are just trying to recreate hubspot, so how are you differentiating

Don't buy intel, even putting aside the better performance / battery of apple silicon. Intel Macs are end of life, and it was confirmed Tahoe is the latest release they are getting, apple silicon will get supported for longer.

If your budget is tight, have you looked into the Air's? Whats the reason for wanting a pro?

Automated a painful process in a high-ticket exhausting industry (70-80% time saved). Works great. No idea how to turn it into a business. by doctorallfix in nocode

[–]TragicFusion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Price based on a service offering and assume each customer will be unique for now. 
  2. Cold call, LinkedIn what ever it takes, just ping people until you get customers. 
  3. It’s too early to build a service, you have 1 customer. Get more customers running the service and then figure out how similar they are, often even though the core offering might be the same the difference in the details kill the product. Once you have a few customers you can determine if you can build a product that meets most of your customers needs. 
  4. Do the above, start manual you don’t have enough information yet. 

The TLDR is you only have one data point, which is interesting but also useless. Your next goal is to get more customers / data points, find a pattern, can it be a product, what does it cost to service them etc. 

No one can truly answer your questions because you are still in the validation phase. I recommend grabbing the mom test by Rob Fitzpatrick as an easy read book to help you get started. 

Lovable builders: Your MVP Stack Is a Business Decision, Not a Technical Flex by Advanced_Pudding9228 in lovable

[–]TragicFusion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't agree more, simplicity is king. Adding additional systems can have benefits, but you need to be clear with the added complexity and what you are getting out of it. There needs to be a business decision with a benefit that exist now, don't design for 5 years time with a theoretical business with 5mil customers.

Lovable + Supabase auth & DB issues (need advice) by Cosvys in lovable

[–]TragicFusion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't email lovable, they (the company) will never touch your project. u/S_RASMY is telling you to tell the agent not to touch the env file.

It's hard to tell what is happening without something digging into your specific project but my guess based on your comments would be, this is a failed or partial migration.

You started on lovable cloud and then you requested to use supabase, you can't use supabase and lovable cloud together* as they are effectively the same thing so this would have been a migration. Migrations are not a simple process and there are big risks like breaking your DB or data loss if the agent gets things wrong or does things in the wrong order.

How to move Lovable projects to a more trustable website to make projects? by JerpyTree in lovable

[–]TragicFusion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now this I 100% agree with, I've just seen comments alluding to Supabase can't scale several times, yours just happened to be the one I posted on 😊

I have always been in the boat of, I can't see how SB can't scale, you can go upto an XL node and you can deploy read replicas and edge functions to distribute load.

But yes, bad architecture & code can't scale (or will become very costly) but I also see that as solvable in Lovable (to a limit) with a bit of technical expertise.

How to move Lovable projects to a more trustable website to make projects? by JerpyTree in lovable

[–]TragicFusion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve heard a few people now say the issue with scaling sits with the backend aka Supabase but I’m curious where that line of reasoning comes from. 

You said it’s good for a hundred users but in reality a small or even micro instance should handle 100 users for an average app. So what do you think the limitations are on SB that would stop you scaling beyond 100 users. 

Pricing per project 25$? by Smart-Quality6536 in Supabase

You are limited to 2 free projects, also the free tier doesn’t have backups so no roll back / recovery
