steve jobs didn't major in computer science/engineering. kanye west didn't major in music. here are 10 more creators that didn't have "formal training" in their fields but still made insane stuff: 1. virgil abloh didn't major in fashion design. he studied civil engineering. 2. james cameron didn't major in film. he was a truck driver. 3. billie eilish didn't major in music. she was homeschooled. 4. da vinci didn't major in art, engineering, biology, or physics. he hung out in nature and read books. 5. hans zimmer didn't major in music composition. he had 2 weeks of piano lessons. 6. ada lovelace didn't major in programming. she invented it. 7. thomas edison didn't major in engineering. he experimented with things until it worked. 8. coco chanel didn't major in fashion. she was a singer/dancer. 9. jk rowling didn't major in creative writing. she studied french. 10. shigeru miyamoto didn't major in programming/game design to create Mario. he learned industrial design instead.

Some of the best things I’ve seen lately were built quietly by 1 person: – A digital scrapbook for people who miss their hometown – A wearable that responds to music frequency – An AI tool that only translates into dialects

You don’t need traction to have taste. You don’t need a team to build culture.

They say build with empathy. But honestly, most of us build from obsession.

translate what they couldn’t fully explain

It starts with taste.

@FreezingColdK Thanks for the support! Really appreciate it

Not every map is made to get you somewhere. Some are just proof that you’ve felt something. It doesn’t “solve a problem.” It’s a demo of what happens when someone builds from feeling, not from pitch decks. a funny product discoverd today-crymaps

for the people who feel like you

where would you add a cry spot?

Some products aren’t scalable. They’re just unreasonably specific to their founder’s life.

YC doesn’t “teach” founders to build companies. It gives them a temporary identity they can borrow until they earn their own. That’s the part most accelerators miss.

Introducing The Garage An industrial design space for tinkerers to wander, be creative and turn ideas to reality. We believe the next set of physical innovations are going to be created here. If you're building in hardware, reply with what you're making

A product isn’t hatched—it’s hyped. Want ideas to go cosmic? VICE guts—shoot the raw, unfiltered adrenaline 88rising translate—turn local weird into global cool Shake well, crank the founder’s taste to 11, and every misfit becomes an amp for the next breakout.
