Building businesses & muscles

@NalinisKitchen But isn’t that case with every guy? No man ever changes the way he dresses or his routines or anything for marriage. He doesn’t cook for the wife of her family. Why is this revolutionary? so many women posting - omg not all of us! 2nd hand cringe! Also it’s just rage bait. Moveon

@BeingPractical I feel you. One point. Not being from Ivy League - it’s still a thing. It’s prolly more of a thing now, than ever.

[Jayashree S @jayagotnerve]

@tejeshwi_sharma Look, I agree! The category kings of even 2030 haven’t been defined yet. But, honestly I’m tired of ppl talking about category definers and then ask you to go build for a narrow b2b requirement. What moat? How would there even be any ‘Indian tech’?

[Jayashree S @jayagotnerve]

@sonofalli A lot of things men take for granted, we have to work really hard to get. Like agency & decision making. You slog your a$$ off for years and you get hit on, she got it cuz she woman, prolly slept with the boss.

You gotta be more man, than a man, to even exist here!

[Jayashree S @jayagotnerve]

I wasn't even allowed to stay in a city where either of my parents were not there. Even when i got into good schools. I had to get into consulting & sales just to travel. Women have to work way harder to get things that are a given for men. And then this happens!

i love how the guy VC horror stories are like “the vc didn’t like me and tell me im special :(“ and the women are like “this guy sent me dick pics and told me to be a mother instead”

[Jayashree S @jayagotnerve]

@Vineeth_Ganji @kunalb11 agreed agreed. i made this point cuz you can make bad music and walk away. but you can't make software and walk away. good or bad. the other things are huge.

@sajithpai @davideoks @oliverwkim The China model won’t work here. I don’t want it to. It involved building a homogenous Chinese identity by essentially erasing a lot others. India is a continent masquerading as a country. Part of why India has always required its own playbook

@adadithya Y is everyone obsessed with founders’ age? I’m in deeptech. Taking strange, bold, new bets. And idk what’s bolder than leaving a few lacs pm, zero romantic life & everything else for a conviction!

[Jayashree S @jayagotnerve]

@BrianMRey yc has some interesting stuff on this. But the best way is to live the problem. Then go talk to others who have faced the same.

[Jayashree S @jayagotnerve]

@waitin4agi_ I like the work you are doing, but "just make money" is honestly..how do i put it politely.. not great advice. It's not even an option for many..

[Jayashree S @jayagotnerve]

@177pc @deedydas Maybe we all recognize the data problem & do Nation-scale data-collection drives (something like CommonCrawl-IN) - Already doing it, not open though.

[Jayashree S @jayagotnerve]

@nbobba I’m like 4 meetings old. Sometimes the meeting was terrible and the feedback was still useful.
Sometimes the meeting was good and the feedback, not so much. When people keep asking for 1 clear icp and usecase when I say it’s deep tech, i just get a beer

@AnjneyMidha

[Jayashree S @jayagotnerve]

@177pc I agree with this thesis. We're already seeing products built around the bottlenecks you list here. As models cross competence thresholds, opportunities shift to the systems around intelligence - data, reliability, memory.

[Jayashree S @jayagotnerve]

@177pc The more interesting question is why India isn't making a similar bet.

Even when there is some push, founders are often encouraged to build for overseas markets from day one. 😏

[Jayashree S @jayagotnerve]

@177pc Once a certain quality bar is achieved, that's enough for 80% of use cases. The ones who need the remaining 20% can pay more anyway.

With or without subsidies, most customers care about cost economics.

@AnjneyMidha If you feel? It is moving fast! Hail scaling laws!
