Disappointment fuels creativity.

In an age of permissionless leverage, judgement, not work, determines success and failure.

Good judgement is the product of a calm and curious mind, reasoning without motivation and attachment.

Whatever strengthens your ego weakens your judgement, and ultimately, your success.

“Painstaking” to fit this to an avatar - take it a bit further and fit these for anyone who’d like to try/buy

Colleges have to convince students for the next year that a remote education is worth every bit as much as an in-person one, and then pivot back before students actually start believing it.

It’s like only being able to sell your competitor’s product for a year.

Most roadmaps are setting up their product teams to fail.

That's because, even today, most roadmaps still follow the dreaded *timeline roadmap* format 😱

Ways to get funded (least fair to most fair)

🤑 Hot round/who else is investing
💼 Right school or resume
👣 Prior successful startup
👩🏻‍🔬 Actually novel breakthrough
🚀 Traction

The less you have of the first few, the more you have to get of the last two. It is what it is.

I’m not religious about many things in engineering — seen too many exceptions to “rules” — but firmly believe in having a single repo for all code. Affords so much leverage, and separate repos just optimized for short term. Microservices ≠ Microrepos https://t.co/aRp1fznDIo
