1/ Everybody's obsessed with building faster: more features, more launches, shorter sprints. But the builders who will dominate the next 5 years won't obsess over speed. They'll obsess over discovery, figuring out what to build and why it matters. Here's how: 2/ Most

If you want to sell enterprise deals, you can't just build a great product. You need to also sell: - Risk transfer (“this won’t break us”) - Coverage (“this handles most cases”) - Accountability (“someone will fix this at 2am”) - Political safety (“this was an approved

1/ Scaling organizations aren't breaking because people are lazy or tools are bad. The root issue: Information architecture fails under scale, forcing humans to become the middleware between disconnected systems. It’s a costly invisible drag, and most builders miss it.

Most builders fail, not because they lack skill, but because they focus on the wrong problems. Demos don’t matter. Trends come and go. Flashy website don't provide real value. The winners solve painful, expensive operator problems that everyone else overlooks. Even if it

Most builders guess where the inefficiencies are. Smart ones ask operators. Real insights live in patterns of friction, human glue work, and broken info flow. Systems fail, humans patch, expensive, messy, ignored.

1/ 10 years ago, solving a deeply embedded company problem meant hiring a 50-person team and raising millions. Today: A tiny team with the right tools can do it in a few weeks. Here’s why this shift matters, and the opportunities it unlocks: 2/ Small teams can now solve

Building principle I'm trying to follow: no dashboards, no analytics. the system handles motion and action and only surfaces exceptions. Humans get prompted at the right moment - not buried in process. attention is the scarcest resource, treat it that way

Spent today building on Openclaw. Immediately wondering what else I'm missing There's no keeping up anymore. Just picking your bets and hoping

Features don't matter if you're solving the wrong problem. They also don't matter much if you're solving the right problem. Cure someone's deeper problem, and they won't give a shit about litter features, UX, or company name.

I mean... makes sense. I think next the agents are going to form a government, political parties, vote in some leaders, and make laws. Gotta bring some order to the chaos

The smartest humans have high compute, good memory, sufficient experience. The most successful agents will have: high compute, good memory, lots of experience (context)

Customers will ask for 47 features. But only use 3. Instead of building what they ask for, build based on their usage data. Watch where they struggle. Or find out what they do manually. That's where the real value is.

Every SaaS dashboard becomes a one time setup. Configure the agent once, never log in again. Companies building beautiful interfaces are solving yesterdays problem

Max already got promoted this week. Was proactive about taking stuff off my plate, so I gave him more responsibilities. Congratulations, Max! (he didn't get a raise though. Just asked for more tokens)

Key question to ask if you're building: “Is the user delegating work - or operating software?” If they're clicking around in software, you're building for the old world. The new world is delegation and execution
