Ok so when u have a gf/wife she will get random hunger attacks that are very specific

"I want Mexican food now"

And it'll be 11pm

So you can't always make the most rational decisions w/ gf

@levelsio @thepericulum no…

Nooooo, I really enjoy 🇦🇷 Buenos Aires, nice temperature and windy here, nice people, good food

Will tweet more about the good parts

@levelsio So at the moment, you are having a bad experience in Argentina (Uber and this) lol

Women are responsible for 70-80% of consumer spending

@levelsio Makes sense. I can eat the same meal everyday, but my gf won’t let me

Just learnt "Brazilification" is a word

It roughly means "islands of wealth surrounded by oceans of poverty"

Trying GPT-4 generated summaries of ALL the reviews of cities on Nomad List and putting them on top

Then regularly re-generating them if new reviews are added

Working really well

And me as a dev/designer/frontend/backend/marketing/everything

The server guy keeps the VPS running and updated and secure but barely works, only when necessary but gets paid a monthly SLA rate…

EU now forces you to d0x your home address if you have an app in the App Store

Wrote up a quick thing about this new “Europe wants you to publish your home address” thing.

The point here is not that it's unsolvable, it is

But it's another weird EU law making it harder for people to do business

One of these laws doesn't make a difference

But all of them stacked together: VATMOSS, GDPR, AI act, etc. it becomes thousands of…

Problem with EU regulation is that they target giant companies like Apple, Facebook and Google

But in the crossfire they mow down startups because those cannot afford to follow the regulation (with time or money)

Easy fix? Revenue minimum for regulation…

Parents are running out of money

@levelsio Western Europe (UK included) is that kid living off their rich parents money, no ambition to do anything innovative or impactful

Google now removed my and everyone else's reviews 🤯

If you ever thought you could trust Google Maps ratings, think again

Worst is they show your own review on top but only for you, while they hide it for everyone else

I think this is a great idea

Reviews everywhere on the internet are now fake

Community notes seem to work really well on X to find truth

Could X use that same algorithm for reviews of restaurants, cafes, hotels?

X Maps @elonmusk

I invite everyone to at least try for a week to make your free app/site paid only and see what happens

Usually the simple answer is: you will start making money

It's difficult for many people to charge money for their products as they feel some shame for…

Glassdoor reviews are also fake

Trustpilot's too

Booking .com's too

Why even show reviews when we know they mean nothing and are all manipulated?

Crazy nobody talks about this

People who say this never built businesses themselves

They're right that the technical part might not be the hardest in AI because models are trained already for you to use

But the difficulty lies in distribution (getting users), user experience/interface…

Payment problems in Argentina continued...

No food delivery app will accept any of our cards, not Revolut, not Wise, not even Brazilian cards

Weirdly the main delivery app of Argentina seems to only allow other LatAm countries to order (not even Brazil)…

Cash has other problems in Argentina though
