@adcock_brett Do you have specific examples of what "centralizing product architecture decisions to a singular person" looks like in real life? And on what decisions would the team have autonomy vs. what decisions should be taken by the CEO?
@dvassallo I disagree. We went through YC. The main thing you learn is to iterate fast and focus mainly on building + selling. We definitely became way better entrepreneurs because of YC. The network and fundraising help was great too.
These early railway carriages are a good illustration of how much old stuff gets dragged along into the first versions of new things. At first even the inventors of trains couldn't think of them as more than sequences of linked horse carriages.
We aren't supposed to talk about making new investments on this site lately given the market conditions... Nevertheless, @max_rimpel and I are thrilled to be partnering with @lindingerju and @kon_geiger to lead their Series A.

@jkostecki_rei @AutistCPA@WeLivetoServe@patrick_oshag That's epic! Did you also do sports during that time? I'm always wondering on how I should continue with my weight lifting routine.
@earnestcapital Having the right idea and timing: we worked couple months on an earlier idea that didn't work but after a pivot we reached $1k MRR within two weeks
