@myhiddenvalue Nope, still as healthy as ever. I remember I was being called an “anti-vaxxer” by the most unhealthy people. So much for my body my choice.
Just got Grok voice.
Unhinged is BRUTAL.
So entertaining on our walk. Told my son I am awful parent. Among many other things.
Hey @Signalman23 it was just like talking to your AI.
Feature request? Have it be able to listen to our audio spaces here. Or watch our videos.
Once that happens things will get very weird.
@QwQiao Fascinating to see crypto founders exploring AI beyond crypto! It's like Convo, focusing on voice AI, showing how diverse innovation can be when you blend backgrounds. Really cool trend.

I remember the exact moment I had a panic attack.
Scrolling Product Hunt at 8a, double espresso in hand, when suddenly: there it was. Someone had launched our exact startup idea. They just raised $7M too. They even used the same shade of blue.
My heart sank. Six months of work, countless whiteboard sessions, and endless customer interviews – all seemingly worthless in an instant.
We’ve all been there as entrepreneurs.
Looking back, that moment of panic was completely meaningless.
Think about it:
- Slack launched years after HipChat dominated workplace chat and sold for $27.7B
- Figma appeared when Sketch owned design and became worth billions
- Notion entered when Evernote was worth billions
In 99% of cases, competitors launching doesn't matter at all.
Here's why:
The "same product" is never the same product. It's like thinking two restaurants are identical because they both serve pasta.
Every founder has their own unique insight, their own special sauce. Your journey with customers takes you in directions you never imagined.
The real tragedy isn't competitors launching. It's founders who quit because they think the race is over before it began.
1. Early competition validates your market without you spending a dime
2. Different founders talk to different customers, leading to completely different products
3. The first product is always wrong anyway – might as well learn from competitors' mistakes
4. Your "unique" idea probably has 10 competitors you don't even know about
The more I keep building startups, the more I realize...
While you're panicking about competitors, realistically, they're probably panicking about you.
Keep shipping.
