PM exploring how AI is rewriting work. From a job seeker to after hour founder.
are my own opinion

[Mike K @MamazMike]

Everyone's talking about jobs AI will kill. Nobody's talking about what AI can do for YOU, get better at your job, land a better one, and build your own. That's the journey I built Joberney for.

The most anxious people in tech I know right now are the ones who look safe on paper, senior title, good salary, a resume that is awesome.
it doesn't seem to be a protection anymore..

[Mike K @MamazMike]

Subscriptions are becoming a dead concept because they don’t let companies grow as expected. Tokens are the new unit of the digital economy. soon, you’ll pay for everything with tokens, even to watch a TV show.

You can take a resume from a 61 percent match to an 82 in about ten minutes. Add the words the scanner wants, swap a couple verbs, done. And not one true thing has changed about whether you can do the work.

[Mike K @MamazMike]

the hard part is seeing which roles your background already reaches. that's what the role-matching tool at joberney is for: https://t.co/1MXptqlzqS

Most people think changing careers means going back to zero.
The ones who pull it off usually just move sideways.

Gen Z made reptiles America's fastest-growing pet (households +38% since 2016, APPA) and treats terrariums like living art. But most first reptiles die of bad UVB or heat.
Basken: a design-object terrarium that runs the husbandry for you.

Built the cost and runway fields in first. Not to make the ideas look more credible, but so I could cross out the ones I was about to burn a quarter on. Saying no fast is most of the skill.

[Joberney @Joberneyapp]

Side hustle listicles give everyone the same 30 ideas. a chatbot only knows what you typed into it.
Joberney starts from your background and the roles you have targeted, then researches what actually worked for people with your background.

Social sauna went institutional: Bathhouse raised $35M for 10 locations.
The boom is all $10M urban flagships. But hotels have idle rooftops + guests who now expect a cold plunge.
Cindershore: turnkey sauna + plunge dropped into hotels, revenue-shared, zero capex.

100M+ Americans are under wildfire-smoke alerts, and the expert fix is taping a box fan to furnace filters. It works, it just looks like a science project.
Plumewell productizes it: 600 CFM of smoke-grade clean air in one quiet appliance.

[Mike K @MamazMike]

The reframe that took me too long to see: at 40 your experience is the asset, not the sunk cost. "Start over" throws it away.
The lower-risk move is one seat sideways plus a small lane you build on your own time. Change without the bonfire.

[Mike K @MamazMike]

Nobody's getting promoted. Nobody's getting fired either. The ladder didn't collapse, it just froze with everyone standing on it.
when the path you were handed stops moving, the only lane still under your control is the one you build yourself. that used to be optional.

[Mike K @MamazMike]

125M+ Americans under heat alerts, and AC repair calls are up 300% with multi-day waits for a tech.
Coolspare: a monthly membership that drops a backup cooling unit at your door in hours when your AC dies, and jumps you to the front of the line.

The solo-economy stat everyone keeps reposting hides the real problem. Millions of people starting something on the side. Almost none of them checking whether anyone wants it before they build it.

[Mike K @MamazMike]

the market-research generator I work on at Joberney runs that first pass for you: who the buyer is, what they already use, what would make them switch. link below if it helps.

[Mike K @MamazMike]

Half the time the thing you were sure about is not the thing they care about. Way better to learn that in a week of conversations than in six months of code you have to throw out.
