@pbteja1998 Thanks. It will be preferable to use the claude pro or max plan instead of the api key. But is that really possible? Can't understand how

Calendly is a $3B call scheduling app, but it didn't start that way:

Attempt 1: Dating app [FAILED ❌]
Attempt 2: Selling projectors [FAILED ❌]
Attempt 3: Selling grills [FAILED ❌]
Attempt 4: Calendar app [SUCCESS ✅]

Lesson: Stay true to your startup journey, not the idea.

That big business secret you're looking for is to simply create value, NOT chase valuations.

In a world of constant showmanship, focusing on building a sustainable business is a lost art.

Atlassian, a $50B tech giant with $4B in revenue, bootstrapped for the first 8 yrs without raising a single penny.

They only turned to VCs when acquisitions became necessary for growth.

Bootstrapping should be the default. VC funding should be a deliberate choice, not the norm.

About 7 years back, my biggest professional goal was to:

- Work on something I love
- With people I enjoy working with

Seems to be going well :)

💫 Memoization Simplified 💫

Memoization is an optimization technique used in computer programming to speed up the execution of a function by caching the results of expensive function calls and returning the cached result when the same inputs occur again.

How does it work?

1. It checks if the result for those inputs already exists in the cache.

2. If the result is found, the cached value returns without re-executing the function's primary logic.

3. If the result is not in the cache, the function computes it as usual, stores it in the cache, and returns it.

This way, subsequent calls with the same inputs can use the cached result, avoiding redundant computations.
