Pay for good tools, people. I've been using some startup tools for social media, email, etc, and my goodness they're great. Those people have spent years working on that problem, you haven't - just pay up and benefit from their time. #buildinpublic #indiehackers

Big win for the accuracy of travel time heatmaps in theretowhere.com - they can now be aware of the time of day you want to take trips. Makes a big difference! Here's an example of a 20 minute car ride map in SF starting at chase center. #indiehackers #buildinpublic

I had a dev session recently adding testimonies to my product homepage. It was quite affirming ☺️ #indiedev #buildinpublic #indiehackers #buildingaloneishardlol

Most mapping apps cannot combine bikes with public transportation. Today, theretowhere.com can! Transit + bike is fully supported in city heatmaps and in directions. This was highly requested - give it a whirl! #buildinpublic #indiehackers #cycling #biking

Looking for apartments or Airbnbs close to work but far from sirens (ie ambulances, etc)? theretowhere.com now supports searches like this! Here's an example showing parts of NYC close to WeWorks but far from hospitals. #indiehackers #apartmenthunting #nyc #buildinpublic

Great testimonial I got from a user (over discord) Just going to paste it in word for word "wow this is unreal and DIRECTLY solves a pain point I've had for years (which is not true of 99.9% of software I see)" Made by day ☺️ #buildinpublic #indiehackers

Soon I'm going to make a paid plan for my project so I can offer features that too costly to offer for free. Wondering what I should name it. "Pro" is boring. Maybe Prime? Or something thematic, like Explorer? Any ideas? #buildinpublic #indiehackers #showerthoughts

Its always possible (but difficult) to find good apartments in NYC without paying insultingly expensive rent. Informal rent agreements! Want to write about this in theretowhere.com/blog - anyone have other secrets to share? #apartments #apartmenthunting #nyc #buildinpublic

Has anyone else realized that there doesn't seem to be an existing API that can give you crime data when given a coordinate? Like, it doesn't even need to be super accurate - county wide or precinct wide statistics would be enough. Interesting. #buildinpubic #indiehackers #apis

Looked at my user session analytics for the first time in a while and found a lot of UX improvements I could make for theretowhere.com. Keep paying close attention to your user journeys, folks! You'll always learn from them. #buildinpublic #indiehackers

Had to take theretowhere.com down for the night to stop my wallet from bleeding hundreds of dollars a day 😂 I made some quick changes that should cut costs by quite a bit and just put it back up. #HackerNews #buildinpublic #RealEstate
