The domain is BIN at Afternic, and only shows price and Buy now button on the Afternic's landing page. Reg path also have Buy Now button only.
And yet, there is a fresh brokered lead with $0 offer in Lead Center (Qualifying).
Anyone knows HOW?

I am done with this shit. It is over. The state of engineering right now is horrible. It has been half a month since I started a new role at a big company. Nobody knows anything here. The specs, code, tests, PRDs, tickets, resolution of those tickets, reports, etc., everything is made by Claude Code. Nobody on my team likes this. They are being forced to ship as much as they can. I have heard multiple times from higher management that pushing code is not a bottleneck, so why are we slow? People are working 12 to 13 hours a day just to press enter. Nobody is reading anything. Humans in corporate are doing nothing on their own. Everyone, literally everyone, from an L1 to an L7 engineer here is doing the same thing. Talk to Claude. There is no sense of victory. Nobody is resolving bugs. In reality, nobody is thinking anymore. Everything is done by LLMs. It is so soul-sucking. I would not mind it, to be honest, if we were at least given the time to check out the code and see what is going where. But no, the goal is to just ship. No matter what happens.
Not many outlets reported but this change could have big impact on backlinks from third party articles...
Google confirmed.

We just bought the domain Stan.Com for $750,000 😳
When I first started Stan, I was so broke that the best domain I could afford was StanWith.Me 🫠
Eventually we got Stan.Store and that was a huge win.
Stan.Com tried to charge us hundreds of thousands of dollar. But we were a tiny company barely making $500k.
I still remember thinking, "lol I will never pay that for a domain".
So there's something really special about this moment.
The most special part though is that Alyssa Williams, our first ever business hire, got the deal done.
Alyssa's been with us in the trenches since day one, back before we had anything.
It's a beautiful full circle moment for all of us.
It might sound silly, but I'm realizing buying Stan.Com is a beautiful symbol of grinding for years, and then seeing the fruits of your labor manifest into the real world.
So this is your reminder that you can start with a shitty domain like StanWith.Me, no money, and tons of people doubting you.
And one day - you can have an incredible team, incredible mission, and a 4 letter .com domain ;)
Onwards and upwards Stan team!
Exactly this; stating "it's just..." is the recipe to grow it up. Zero tolerance or you're OK with it.
The issue @Fricoben is that it's how it started everywhere in Europe.
"Oh it's just one area"
"Oh it's just a city"
"Oh it's just the region"
"This is a no-go zone, no one knows how it happened"
This is an unacceptable plague everyone progressively accepts as normal
I thought we're in the age of "I like this SaaS but not gonna pay for it, I'll vibecode it myself" but "We don't like your Google we're gonna build our own" is wild.
Meta staff DM'd me secretly

Meta is ALLEGEDLY building their own Google search engine, so that if their AI does a web search it doesn't end up at Google, as Google could then use it for THEIR training, so they want their own web index that they will then use as their own Meta search engine for their AI
Interesting 🤔
Anyone around to confirm?
We're rolling out a small tweak to boost visibility of your posts to your mutuals (people who you follow back).
We noticed this data was missing from the algo and it made your friends appear less in your replies. This resulted in the reply section feeling more like a battleground with people you don't recognize.
This should also help clusters form around interests more easily, which many people have asked for.
