This is excellent, just what I needed from a barebones SEO tool as a total newb.

Simple, clear, gets the data right from my Google Console setup and shows a simple graph and a list of keywords.

Would love to connect on Twitter and offer more feedback/support if you're there.

Hi zoozla,

Thanks for your feedback!

Would be great to chat, my Twitter is @den_volkhonskiy.

Sounds like bad codebase compounded by a toxic team. A lethal combo.

Bad management who dont understand programming, which is sadly replicated across many companies, and then people wonder why its so easy to get hacked. eyesroll

That sounds aweful. I didn't think there were still shops that don't even have source control and just edit code in prod.

Mine was huge Java monolith that ran (and maybe still runs) part of the foreign exchange system that banks use to trade currency.

There were 8 layers of abstract classes with only one concrete class at the bottom.

There was a whole half-assed quasi-functional almost-but-not-quite-turing-complete language in XML for parsing legacy binary files.

There were unit tests, but they modified the dev DB so you needed to manually reseed it after every run (defintely no CI).

I spent months trying to refactor some of the more afwul bits. Not sure I actually made things any better.

I still shudder.

> almost-but-not-quite-turing-complete language

Not to detract from the obvious nightmare, but at least they dodged the "accidentally Turing complete" bullet... entirely inadvertently, I'm sure.

I removed the worst of the cringy ones (e.g. AnalConnect for business analysts) and the "Inspiration" bit in each app can sometimes ring a little off, but I'm pretty happy with the result overall.

AnalConnect may have been the only one that could be financially viable. I'd make a separate list for the "cringy" ones.

Might need a little tweaking. GPT3 skews to 5 y/o humour without deeper guidance.

...

Generate a list of 5 cringy app names and descriptions.

1. "PooPee!" - A game where you must help a little brown turd make its way through a maze to the toilet.

2. "Bathroom Break!" - A game where you must help a person take a dump in as little time as possible.

3. "Pimple Popper!" - A game where you must pop as many pimples as possible in a set amount of time.

4. "Hangman With a Twist!" - A game where you must guess a word or phrase, but with a hangman twist!

5. "Who Can Pee the furthest?" - A game where you must see how far you can make your pee go.

These are brilliant! I can imagine each of these taking off as Telegram Bots or TikTok games/fads. I wonder if you can automatically generate bots out of these and track the engagement as some kind of a feedback loop.

I can imagine a bot that posts a "Show HN" for each of those ideas that points to a landing page generated with GPT3 and DALL-E and tracks traffic to figure out the best one to build.

Heard it a million times before but it's a nice reminder.

You're right, that's what the article is about, because that's easier. Finding paying customers and product market fit for an existing product is harder, and that's what I teach at growthlab.so.

People seem to be enjoying this over on IndieHackers, thought you guys might be interested in this too.

Potion is an awesome project and Noah is a great guy. Been paying him for a while with https://softdiscipline.com, not planning to stop any time soon.

Very off topic but you live in Nelson!!?? Whitewater is such an awesome hill and Baldface is all time! What a great playground you have!

I do and it is!

Ping me on Twitter @finereli, let's connect!

Awesome! Glad to hear it.

I switched from super.so and I absolute love the instant update. Used to smash the refresh button quite a bit to get things to update!

Glad to hear it!
