progress on @maybe today: - new landing page (maybe.co) - refunded all maybe & synth customers - shut down detangle - shut down synth - audited expenses and cancelled all the things - built first pass at quickbooks docs scraper and threw my computer out a window
current solution: have claude code use playwright to browse each page and extract the contents into .md files locally. absurd.
why are so many developer docs completely anti-developer? @QuickBooks could not POSSIBLY make it harder to use their docs, especially with LLMs.

final release of @maybe personal finance. incredible work from @zg_dev and @justinmfarrugia + 100's of contributors. excited to see what the community does with it going forward. github.com/maybe-finance/…
just dropped a temporary landing page for the new @maybe! maybe.co

want to do a one-time purge of all the @maybe tweets since we're completely changing our market. ...what do i use to do that?
OCD organizational question about @stripe: since we're shutting down the @maybe B2C personal finance app, should we create a new account in Stripe for the B2B app? the b2c one has thousands of past customers/subscriptions/etc, most of whom will never touch the b2b app.
@grok auto-block anyone with an anonymous username who is insufferable in every interaction they have here
doing a podcast tomorrow with @gregisenberg about building (and selling) namesnag! what would make the episode interesting? what would you want us to cover?
progress on @maybe today: built out foundation (@rails + @inertiajs) with multi-tenancy support plus got initial quickbooks oauth connection and data import done. also built a rudimentary runway forecaster with the data just to sanity check that we got the *right* data. 🎉
to be clear, i'm not saying it isn't worth that or that the price is absurd. i AM saying we don't have $300k to spend on that right now.

parts from china just cleared customs for the @SuperFanToys FolderDrive! fingers crossed we'll take possession this week and can drop the first 100! superfantastictoys.com/products/folde…
switched back to slack from discord for the next incarnation of @maybe. feels better (note, not "good"...just "better").
names we considered for v3 of @maybe (before ultimately deciding to just stick with "maybe").
