“How does your team do dev estimates?”

(long post - feel free to skip) The Hidden Costs of Slow Growth in B2B SaaS I've been talking to a lot of B2B SaaS founders lately. Many are running 7+ year old companies, just now raising their A or B rounds. They're facing a common challenge: massive technical and product

Thesis: OpenAI needs to work their way "up" the value chain inside organizations to where the work happens to fulfill their potential as a product and business. They can't scale the business of just being an AI endpoint. Prediction: Coda would be a very logical acquisition

The Psychology of Your Users Matters Product managers often miss the big picture. They focus too much on what users do, not why they do it. This is a mistake. Take Toast, a restaurant management system. It's easy to think your customers are just "restaurants". But that's too

So unbelievably excited for gil 🌍 & Torus. The technology they've built solves such a massive problem for climate change, literally saving the world. They couldn't deserve this award more. In awe of what they're doing torus.co/blog/torus-nov…

Find and secure money after a death. Use Sunset (YC F24) to fund a retirement account after losing a loved one. Finding and closing the accounts of a loved one can take months—often years—and hundreds of hours of work. Most people have to do that while grieving, but

I don’t mean to lean on my last name like this, but yall I think this UnitedHealthcare assassin might not be American: 1. Rode a bus for 20+ hours from Atlanta instead of flying 2. Stayed at a hostel 3. Rode a bike as his getaway

I'll claim half credit here. Ben Rimmasch got acquired (merged?) by @Grammarly and the driving force is likely 3 things in rank order from Coda's PoV: 1. Out-executed by Notion for the broad appeal b2b use cases, but also not quite robust enough to compete with Jira/Atlassian for

I wish I wanted anything in life as much as GLG wants a 30 minute phone call with me.

Spending my Saturday going through the FY26 Salt Lake City Government budget. The doc is 300+ pages long! Here are some highlights, so you don't have to read it.

It’s truly bewildering to build with tools like Cursor as a product person. I can now create a working prototype in 1/10th the time it used to take just to get alignment on an idea. The long-term impact on how PMs operate is going to be enormous.

DoAnything is one of the more interesting AI products I've used in the last year. Really acts like a complete "assistant". Very fun and powerful.

What's wrong babe? You've barely touched your vibe coded CRM this week.

The irony of this SaaS reset is that it’s a long term gift to the survivors. Low multiples will dry up the incentive and capital for new competitors, ensuring that incumbent revenue remains sticky. In two years, we’ll look back at this as the moment the market accidentally

me at 11pm: yes Amazon I need this by 7am me at 7am: wtf are all these packages? I wonder what's in them and who ordered them

Wild that the command line is now a primary UI for products. You could've given me 100 guesses five years ago and I wouldn't have called that.
