My TickerTown portfolio is up 1%. Think you can do better?
Join me: tickertown.ai/r/WILLISWEE
New players who sign up through my link get ⚡$10,000, and so do I.
1) Cheaper access to space: Startups built for a world where Starship makes launches 100x cheaper.
2) The $15/hour expert: AI that helps ordinary workers do specialist jobs like tax, M&A, and medical billing. "Anywhere a credential is the bottleneck, this model works."
3) Robots made in America: Build the hardware and supply chain behind domestic robotics.
4) LLMs that write well: AI models focused on natural voice and great writing.
5) Plaid for government benefits: One-click verification for income, tax, residency, and public benefits.
6) Finance for the physical AI boom: Financing and leasing for robots, GPU clusters, and data centers.
7) AI models for specific industries: Efficient models built for manufacturing, energy, biology, and other verticals.
8) AI for city hall: Automate permits, zoning, licensing, inspections, and resident requests.
9) Data center supply chain: Fix bottlenecks in transformers, switchgear, cooling, electrical steel, and other critical hardware.
10) AI for secure, offline industries: On-prem AI for defense, banks, hospitals, nuclear plants, and other sensitive environments.
11) Own your AI: Help companies train, test, and own models built on their own data.
The bottlenecks in AI are moving beyond the models.
We’re excited about startups building the hardware, infra, financial systems, and specialized software to bring AI into the real economy, from factories and data centers to government and space.

"how many entrepreneurs you know who became successful (and rich) and then made a second project that also became as successful. It's fairly rare. And it's because success changes people's life.
They are no longer (financially) dependent on the success of a project. They already have had money and success. Often the "chip on their shoulder" of "I'm going to show the world I can do it" is gone. Also having money gives them TOO MANY resources. They'll overengineer a product and since they're now in a small minority of successful people, they're not the target customer anymore either.
That's why the position you're probably in now, where you're heavily bound by resources is a competitive advantage. You can much more easily compete with big entrepreneurs than you think. You're pure and real. Probably more than I am now. I'm jaded already. Your limited resources make you creative. It gives you a very clear goal and a strong focus."

Two patterns emerged with some beta testers on tickertown.ai/:
1) too much info, don’t know where to start. keep it simple!
2) the info is great and I learned so many strategies. Easy onboarding!
fixing the last batch of UI/UX issues with @iantanwx .
Join the waitlist. i’ll give you ⚡$1 million to start! ☺️
Crazy inspiring that this robotics company is made in singapore. Against the odds
Stop vibe investing.
@iantanwx and I build TickerTown to help us practice building trading strategies, backtest them, and paper trade with real market data and fake money.
You learn what works, what doesn’t, and how you behave as an investor.
Launching soon.
You can join the beta waitlist (tickertown.ai). Or if you want in now and don’t mind a slightly buggy product, reply “TickerTown” and I’ll DM you an invite with an extra ⚡ $1,000 in game cash.
Gorgeous.
I designed all of these landing pages in the last two months, using @higgsfield , Claude, and Cursor with my custom AI designer skill.
The skill is open source: github.com/elayadesign/ai-de…
Here's a small silly game to whack together: williswee.com/whack-together…
I wanted to see what I could build with Dot, the AI assistant from @OpenAI. So I made a game.
It’s called Whack Together. A silly multiplayer survival game where you run around with oversized weapons, fight monsters and try to keep each other alive.
An early inspiration was this video by @rewind02. We borrowed ideas from its movement and camera, then gradually turned the experiment into a game.
I wanted something I could play with my girls, my wife or some friends. Just send a link and jump in. No download. There’s one public room, with up to six people playing at once.
The slow part was me finding time to play and give feedback. This is a side project, and I wanted to try each version before deciding what to change. Bigger weapons. More monsters. Scarier bosses. Then play again.
Dot handled the coding, testing and deployment (no other harnesses). tyvm, @thsottiaux . I gave it direction and kept asking for changes.
I wanted the whole thing to feel comical. Ridiculously large weapons, a bit of chaos, and hopefully some laughter with the people you’re playing with.
But now I’m slightly worried about letting my girls play. What if they like it a little too much?
Anyway, grab a few friends and give it a go. If the room is full, there’s a waiting line.
I hope it gives you a little fun and laughter, even if only for a few minutes!

Foursquare was acquired last month. The outcome was disappointing. It's taken me a while to write this, but I think I'm finally done grieving it. Here are some thoughts on our final years, an effort to honor the team who helped build & maintain FSQ's legacy, and my attempt to finally get some closure. teendrama.substack.com/p/som…
Made in Singapore too 🇸🇬
