Tom here. A founder, who had an exit and refuses to let the world pass him by. Interested in ideas from those who have thought them through.

This is the part Replit, Lovable, and Bolt should be losing sleep over. Google AI Studio now ships with the Antigravity coding agent built in, Firebase for auth and databases, and one-click Cloud Run deployment. The entire pipeline from “describe your app” to “it’s live on the internet with a working backend” runs inside one browser tab. Free tier. No credit card. The vibe coding startups charge $15-39/month and still require you to stitch together Supabase, Netlify, and two or three other services before anything actually works in production. Users on Bolt have reported burning $1,000+ on a single project when debugging cycles eat through token budgets. Lovable and Bolt both hit a complexity wall around 15-20 components where the AI starts losing context and making destructive changes. Google just bundled the entire backend those companies never built. This is the same playbook Google ran on email, maps, and cloud storage. Give it away free, make it the default, wait for the market to reorganize around your infrastructure. The vibe coding startups built better creation experiences. Google built the deployment layer those prototypes always needed. The gap Google is exploiting: every startup in this space built a great front door and a mediocre production experience. Google built a mediocre front door sitting on top of the best production infrastructure in the world. They paid $2.4 billion for the Windsurf team to fix the front door. The startups are still trying to build their own backend. One of those problems is easier to solve. And the company with 20+ million developers already on its platform gets to solve it with distribution the startups will never match.

first serious iran statement by core us allies, committing to “contribute to appropriate efforts to ensure safe passage through the strait.” very welcome. let’s see what it amounts to.
UK Prime Minister@10DowningStreet

Together with our allies, we condemn in the strongest terms recent attacks by Iran on unarmed commercial vessels in the Gulf, attacks on civilian infrastructure including oil and gas installations, and the de facto closure of the Strait of Hormuz by Iranian forces.

Asked why he didn't coordinate with allies before going to war with Iran, Trump says, "We didn't tell anyone about it. Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor, OK?"

This is the most troublesome sign I've seen for Trump & the GOP. Trump's now a record low 41 pts underwater on the cost of living per Yahoo/YouGov. He's 60 pts underwater on the issue with indies!! Wave adios to the House & maybe Senate cause you can't win with these numbers.

Warming people up is a science. In their research, Google discovered that people typically consume 11 pieces of content before making a purchase. They call this moment of online decision-making 'Zero Moments of Truth', or ZMOT. Psychology professor Robin Dunbar found that time and quality interactions determined how much trust and connection people experienced. His research showed that spending several hours with someone across multiple interactions in a week significantly sped up the time it took to bond. Grab my free 20-minute Masterclass and I'll show you how to build a system that warms up your leads automatically - so by the time they speak to you, they're already sold: bit.ly/4pgoGUB

I'm going to make some obvious points. (1) Blowing up all the oil infrastructure in the Middle East is an insane idea, and may well result in a global economic crash and humanitarian crisis unrivaled in the lives of those now living. We're talking about the price of everything everywhere rising, from food to gas, at a moment when inflation was already high. All of that will be laid at the feet of the authors of this war. (2) The antebellum status quo of Feb 27, 2026 was just not that bad, but we're unlikely to return to it. Expect indefinite, long-term, ongoing disruptions to everything out of the Middle East. (3) Also assume tech financing crashes for the indefinite future. The genius plan to get the Gulf states caught in the crossfire has incinerated much of the funding for LPs, for datacenters, and for IPOs. Anyone in tech who supported this war may soon learn the meaning of "force majeure" as funding gets yanked. (4) Many capital allocators will instead be allocating much further down Maslow's hierarchy of needs, towards useful basic things like food and energy. (5) It's fortunate that all those progressives yelled about the "climate crisis." Yes, their reasoning about timelines was wrong, and much of the money was wasted in graft, but the result was right: we all need energy independence from the Middle East, pronto. It's also fortunate that Elon and China autistically took climate seriously. Now they're going to need to ship a billion solar panels, electric vehicles, batteries, nuclear power plants, and the like to get everyone off oil, immediately. (6) It's not just an oil and gas problem, of course. It's also a fertilizer problem, and a chemical precursor problem. Maybe some new sources will come online at the new prices, but it takes time to dial stuff up, particularly at this scale, so shortages are almost a certainty. That said, China has actually scaled up coal-to-chemicals[a,c] (C2C), and there's also something more sci-fi called Power-to-X[b] which turns arbitrary power + water + air into hydrocarbons. But all of that will need to get accelerated. I have a background in chemical engineering so may start funding things in this area. (7) Ultimately, this war is going to result in tremendous blame for anyone associated with it. It's a no-win scenario to blow up this much infrastructure for so many people. Simply not worth it for whatever objective they thought they were going to attain. But unless you're actually in a position to stop the madness, the pragmatic thing to do is: scramble to mitigate the fallout to yourself, your business, and your people.

@Bencera This is awesome. I had six years of 14-16 hour solo days before I had an exit. What i learned. Please give yourself enough sunlight, fresh air, exercise, solid food and sound sleep as well. All the work can wait for that to get done also. Best wishes.

About to hit $4.5M run rate. Still 1 founder + AI. Zero employees. Honest moment: this past week almost broke me. No one prepares you for what PMF actually feels like. Every infra partner hitting rate limits. Every bug that could happen, happened. Investors throwing big numbers at me. Customers flooding every channel. All at once. I went silent. Stopped tweeting, stopped LinkedIn, stopped podcasts, stopped growth. Just me and my AI agents, fixing things one by one. Here's what I learned: everything is solvable with AI. Every single thing. I'm building Polsia so every solopreneur gets access to the same tools keeping me alive right now. If I can survive this alone, I can package it for everyone. The future is solopreneur + AI. I'm living at the edge so you don't have to.

If you can solve a big problem, you can build a big business. I took ONE, just one simple idea in 2013, slash 401k fees by 50% to 70%. Built americasbest401k.com from scratch, to over $2 Billion in assets, which led to an exit. Having Tony Robbins as a partner was life changing. But it was ONE simple change, one idea, that did it.

Nobody tells you this: You can win by just embracing what most people avoid. Wake up early. Focus. Move your body. Eat real foods. Obsess over one thing. Read old books. Be present. Listen intently. Change your mind. Have difficult conversations. The recipe for a good life.

I spent 14-16 hours a day in my casita office for nearly 6 years building a company, growing it to over $2 billion in assets, then had an exit. It was a quite solitary existence. I was mere feet away from my family, but might as well have been miles away at time. The grind was worth it. But, the world needs all kinds though. Being with people day to day is a very precious thing as well for the majority.

Everyone wants to be an entrepreneur until they realize nobody cares about them. There's no orientation. No performance reviews. No one is checking to see if you showed up. Most people can't handle that. They need the structure more than they'll ever admit.

Let me explain exactly why your phone seems to read your thoughts, because the real answer is more invasive than telepathy. Every time you open a website or app, a real-time bidding auction fires in under 100 milliseconds. Your GPS coordinates, browsing history, device fingerprint, age, gender, income bracket, and hundreds of inferred interest categories get packaged into a “bid request” and broadcast to hundreds of companies simultaneously. One company wins the ad slot. All of them keep the data. This happens thousands of times per day per person. A 2018 New York Times investigation found 75 companies pulling precise location data from apps, with some users tracked up to 14,000 times in 24 hours. In 2012, a Target statistician identified 25 products that, purchased in combination, could predict a customer was pregnant and estimate her due date. A teenager’s father discovered she was pregnant because Target sent baby coupons to the house before she told anyone. That was one retailer. Store receipts only. Fourteen years ago. Now scale that. Your phone pings GPS while you sleep. Data brokers link your phone, laptop, and tablet through probabilistic matching of IP addresses, WiFi networks, and behavioral patterns without you ever logging in. The FTC caught two brokers in 2024 categorizing people by visits to reproductive health clinics, political protests, and religious services, then selling those profiles to law enforcement. The algorithm doesn’t hear your thoughts. It compares your behavioral fingerprint against millions of similar profiles and predicts your next interest before you’re consciously aware of it. It makes hundreds of predictions per day. You ignore the misses. The five hits feel like telepathy. You paid for the phone. You pay for the data plan. You generate the signal. And every time a page loads, your identity gets auctioned to the highest bidder before the content even renders. They called it “personalized advertising” because “real-time mass surveillance funded by the people being surveilled” doesn’t fit on a consent banner.

I get how the phone can target ads by hearing and seeing me, but how is it showing me ads based on my thoughts? I can't be the only one noticing this.

I heard an incredible analogy from a VC friend that I can’t stop thinking about. “The moat in software was the cost of building software. And Claude Code just mass produced a bridge.” It’s wild when you think about the impact of this. The SaaS boom produced a few dozen billionaires and a bunch of zero sum winners. But the AI SaaS era will mass produce millionaires. There will be fewer ServiceTitans hitting $5B valuations, and instead there will be 50,000 companies doing $500K-$5M each, run by 1-3 people with deep expertise and huge margins. To be clear, I believe that the total value of software goes up, and the number of companies created goes up exponentially. But the number of people who capture the value also goes up 100x. I don’t believe in the “SaaS is dying” headline, I think it’s missing the point. It’s simply that the power of SaaS is changing hands.
