Building THE startup scenius in CEE based in Oradea 🇷🇴 I ponder about 1st time founder tactics, busy life hacks and the European startup ecosystem mechanics

Its not POWER

Only LIGHT
Can overcome darkness!

And darkness never overcomes light!

@zanehengsperger "pain is the moat" is good startup advice in general

@marclou Get a kid bro. Until u can…
It will change your definition of a good life like you cannot fathom

[David Achim @DavidAchim]

@PalmerLuckey @chrisdscherer @Daedalus_Sy @PalmerLuckey why do u bother?!

[David Achim @DavidAchim]

Not enough bro… by far. We are talking about the next generation of infrastructure for the critical economy and Europe replies basically on a bottleneck company in the manufacturing chain. Yes, it is a great company don’t get me wrong. But still, we are talking about a huge discrepancy here…

[David Achim @DavidAchim]

@marclou random thoughts are the most ordered actually.
How often did you change the sector (or did you build multiple ideas for the same sector?) in the 2 years before making the 1st $$?

@claudeai Could you please just stop for a weekend?!

[David Achim @DavidAchim]

Why @AnthropicAI?! Just why not wait 'till Monday...

Introducing Claude Opus 5.

It's a thoughtful and proactive model that comes close to the frontier intelligence of Fable 5 at half the price.

I don’t know why and I don’t know how to explain it (for now) but I also believe this from the bottom of my heart.
And a belief is not a belief if not act upon.
Let’s build!

@romanbuildsaas Loved it @romanbuildsaas
I also believe the 3rd category of founders is the one that, in the long run, is recruiting all the others. And it's why YC brings you all together. To give you access to the best future employees :D

@naval and then we will start rebuilding platforms for humans only.

AI is not an Artificial Intelligence
AI is an Artificial Imitation

That is how Allan Turing called it from the beginning - The Imitation Game - and he did it for a reason:
it still is, an imitation of the output of thought — not the underlying process of it.

What we have is a very advanced mirror that reflects human intelligence back at us — shaped by all human knowledge but originating none of its own. Turing himself never claimed the machine would think — only that it could successfully imitate thinking.

"We now find ourselves in a world
where we understand how almost everything works
but we know the meaning of nothing"

- The Matter With Things: Our Brains, Our Delusions, and the Unmaking of the World
by Iain McGilchrist

[David Achim @DavidAchim]

when everything becomes permissible, nothing has value anymore.
value is the result of effort, of exclusivity, of unavailability.

you have to pay a price.

if you don't, you will not consider it valuable.

that's the story behind our lost cultural VALUEs today... we killed them by making everything permissible and instantly available: love, truth, honor, wisdom, courage...

Capitalism in it purest form

@eurofounder EU official accounts are best EU parody accounts

“The Man in the middle Cross said I can come” - the one line on the basis of which everything we believe stands upon!!!

[Josh Howerton @howertonjosh]

"The man on the middle cross said I could come..."

This might be the best 3-minutes of preaching I've *EVER* seen. If you don't feel this in your soul, you need to check your pulse 😭🙌

@AlpacaAurelius Forgot smth bro
I fixed it for u

[David Achim @DavidAchim]

I lo(i)ve this quote!!!
“The people I look up to the most are not necessarily the richest or most successful. Almost always, they’re the freest. The most in control of their own lives”
