Founders must stop trying to building 2010-era businesses with 2026-era technology.

Don't try to rebuild Foursquare or Yelp.

Don't try to recreate Basecamp by 37 Signals with $10/mo SaaS pricing.

Don't underprice! If it works it's worth a lot more.

Don't be tempted to become "Tech enabled PE" with revenue tricks.

The rules of tech changed with AI. Play the new game.

The cofounder and CTO of Perplexity, @denisyarats just said internally at Perplexity they’re moving away from MCPs and instead using APIs and CLIs 👀

Is it just me or are these new models becoming more unhinged by the day?

Starting a new company:

You pay us $10k/mo and we send your competitors an endless stream of invites to be interviewed on 3 hour-long tech podcasts, speaking engagements, founder dinners, and all-day tech events so they can never get real work done and they fail.

I keep hearing about #vibecoding.

A decade ago I tweeted: "Stack Overflow helped me build my 1st Rails app."

Let's be real—we were always 1 Google or SO search from shipping.

We've always been vibe coding just with worse tools.

Idea: a captcha before you post a political view but instead of finding buses, you have to correctly identify on a blank map where the country you want to tweet about is located

do right by your customers

and enjoy the power of word of mouth.

@Nextiva Can't cancel through your portal. Have to speak to "Customer Retention team" that closes earlier at 3PM PT (of course your sales team is open normal hours). According to the rep I just spoke to this is all to prevent me from "accidentally" cancelling. Unreal. #saas #voip

@AdobeCare Hung up here. Double charged due to a mistake made by your customer care when I first called in 2019 forthe same issue. Now I am on chat, getting nowhere. 2 hours later and this isn’t resolved. Is there a private place for me to speak with support there are credit cards involved.

Salespeople do a lot more than sell things. They're often the de facto project managers of their customers. But it suits both parties to give the job a narrow-sounding name that conceals this aspect of it.

I was once stripped of a committee assignment for voting differently from Paul Ryan on a budget resolution.

[Adam Draper ⏻ @AdamDraper]

The banks held all the money, so people built #Bitcoin

No institution would fund their innovations so people built an ERC-20 smart contract

No government would accept the regulatory framework, so people built decentralized products

I think we undervalue what people can do.

SO helped me code my first rails project! #SOreadytohelp
