I have one of these and I really enjoy it.

No it’s not FSD. There is no navigation at all, you’re correct that it’s “just lane assist”. But the lane assist is next level.

I take a few 1,000 mile plus road trips every year and the comma pays for itself every time. Using the stock lane assist, I’m constantly correcting it. The stock assist tries to take an exit, doesn’t handle curves well at all, and any construction or unusual road conditions it won’t work at all.

With the Comma, on the highway it’s basically FSD. On my last 1000 mile trip I never had to disengage, only to pass and make turns.

The biggest advantage is Comma allows you to be completely hands off the wheel. Where lane assist forces you to hold the wheel at all times.


I still use old comma branch running with OnePlus phone on Subaru. It works really really well, even on snowy northern roads. The code, from firmware C to python is very well written as well, makes it easy to tune it to your driving habits.

FYI for others, if you are in Washington, you are breaking the law: https://dol.wa.gov/vehicles-and-boats/vehicles/vehicle-regis...

Founding Sales by Pete Kazanjy is hands down the best book I’ve read on sales. It has a step by step guide on how to implement a sales process in your business.

I keep it on my desk at all times. Whenever I have a sales question I thumb through and it always has the answer.


I enjoy Patio11’s Bits About Money Essays. You’ll frequently see his posts make the front page of HN.

Don’t forget that Azure was down two weeks ago as well.


I own a small SaaS and the numbers you presented are similar to my situation in 2023. I owed over $100k in Taxes and I’ve literally never had over $100k in my business or personal bank account.


No that’s not a law. Typically when DJing the venue is responsible for paying the ASCAP and other licensing fees. As long as the DJ didn’t pirate the music they are free to use whatever source of the music they want.

The fun part is paying ASCAP and BMI doesn’t guarantee you have the rights to play any song, just most songs. So you’d have to look up if the song you want to play is in the ASCAP library before you play every song. And if they don’t have the song you must contact the artist/label and get permission before playing it. Obviously this isn’t practical. But it illustrates just how difficult it is to be compliant with copyright law.


This is me! I have bootstrapped two SaaS companies, and used to hang out on Indie Hackers all the time from 2016-2021. Then the vibe completely shifted, and the self promotion and influencers took over.

I had a modest following on Indie Hackers, and my posts always did well. But after 2021 none of my posts ever could cut through the “7 tweets you need to make right now to generate signups”. I just stopped posting and that’s when I came over to Hacker News.

I hope something pops up like Indie Hackers again, because there are a few of us who build small products and don’t want to be Twitter influencers.


I decided to try Porkbun last week, had a minor issue and opened up a support chat. Instantly I was connected with a guy named Richard who I could tell was a real person, who had deep knowledge of domains and DNS, and he was empowered to solve my issue. I was blown away. I haven’t had support like that in years.


The best part of Google domains being purchased by square space was finding porkbun. I’ve moved all my domains and have been very happy.


Congrats to Comma! I’ve had a Comma 2 and then upgraded to Comma 3. It really is a game changer on long trips. It’s also fun trying out all of the different forks, and experimental features.


We’re already here. Check out Cline or Roocode. The technology is incredible.

I wrote a custom MCP to grab tickets from my Kanban board, Roo will pull down the tickets and start implementing them. I then have another agent that QAs, and either kicks the ticket back, or moves the ticket to human review.

I’m doing this on a real world micro SaaS. It has about 50 paying customers, and I’m the sole developer. I did a complete rewrite and the AI was able to complete about 90% of the project. I estimate I can get about a week’s worth of coding done in a day with this setup. I haven’t even scratched the surface of optimizing this workflow.

I’m also just one guy working nights and weekends, I’m sure there are many startups solving this same problem. It’s amazing to be shipping features this quick, but as a developer I’m terrified of what this is going to do to our careers.
