I made $1,665.42 in October 2025. 🪙 Pingcoin — $1,655.42 Still can't believe it. It was still 0 in September.

UI upgrade for Pingcoin hitting the App stores in the next days. What do you think?

Peter Thiel might be onto something here… aleximas.substack.com/p/what… FWIW I think he’s missing important dimensions like desire for human connection, empathy, shared understanding, which will be important for the future of jobs in healthcare, education, etc.
Walter Isaacson asks Peter Thiel what humans can uniquely do in the AI era. Thiel: "We're very relational… these relational dimensions will become more important." When knowledge is worth $0, the only career skills that matter: - networking / social calibration - persuasion (sales) - curiosity (harnessing AI) - taste (curation) - storytelling - grit - golfing with clients (or equivalent) We'll get so sick of a fake world that we'll go back to doing business like it's the 1800s. A handshake at the local saloon.

Really pleased with the Pingcoin infrastructure right now. I receive a review from a Japanese user, who's happy with the app, but is missing the 1 Yen coin. I add the coin literally in less than 5 minutes using the coin resonance model and reply to them. Loving it.

I admit a year or two I had difficulty understanding how AI could get away from us and cause damage. With Claude sometimes ignoring instructions, or using non-sensible defaults, it's become much easier to understand.

About a year ago AI assisted coding started to become powerful. I was able to swoop into a dormant spaghetti coded side project and introduce a paywall. My first paying customers soon followed. Today, a year later, I got my first renewal!

We've got a little USB-C chargeable white noise device to help our newborn go to sleep. Works really well. Today I woke up from a delicious afternoon nap. I turn around to find the device buzzing next to me. Wifey must have put it there. 😳

I've been cooking 🧑‍🍳🚀 Big update going out for Pingcoin iOS and Android today. Big improvements to the ping detection logic and a smoother render of the realtime spectrum. Also bringing the radial spectrum to Android as well now.

Sooo incredible. I feel like we’re reliving the early Internet all over again. But juiced 10000x
Лучшее, что я видел за последнее время — чел пилит ASCII MMORPG, в которой вся графика состоит из букв и символов. Да, буквально весь мир, персонажи, окружение и спецэффекты нарисованы разноцветным текстом. Автор сейчас экспериментирует с магией, визуалом и боссами. Я прям залип на то, как из нескольких десятков символов получается такая красота. Буквально сны при температуре 37,2. Via: tiktok.com/@Ansenjeo

Visual exploration of a radial 3d spectrogram for Pingcoin. Might make it into the app some day.

Pingcoin Android has been out for years. I made it free the first couple of years. I implemented some very basic analytics back in the day: every ping would get logged to firebase. Today I used CC to analyze some of the data. My jaw is on the floor. Here are some insights.

This opens up a new playbook for me to add more coins to my app, while getting accurate tolerance intervals. - Offer the coin test based solely on the model, with relatively wide tolerances - Collect data - Recalibrate the coin test with the data and tighten the tolerances

One more pic to close off the thread. Kind of reminds me of NASA pics of far-away galaxies.
