Here's YC's official advice about being truthful and precise about what is pilot, bookings, revenue and recurring revenue. Founders, particularly first time founders, need to sear this into their brains. Don't mistake one tier for another. Be precise, and always be truthful.

We're launching the Anthropic STEM Fellows Program. AI will accelerate progress in science and engineering. We're looking for experts across these fields to work alongside our research teams on specific projects over a few months. Learn more and apply: job-boards.greenhouse.io/anthropic/jobs…

@paulg Paul please elaborate on your definition of “Hard the founder is”.

Someone asked what's the most underappreciated quality in startup founders. I realized I could answer this by asking what's the most underappreciated aspect of startups. That's easy: how hard they are. So the most underappreciated quality in founders is sheer toughness.

@garrytan Unfortunately many engineers either dont rely on these tools even when encouraged in the team nor do they want to use them because they feel that they are loosing their authenticity.

I was on a plane yesterday vibe coding and the 20 something engineer sitting next to me asked me what I was doing. He had heard about these tools but don’t use them. I was blown away. These tools are like the holy grail for engineers! It’s Feb 2026 and you haven’t tried it yet?

@KimFigma Thanks Kim, your the best. I have tried Opus, much better! Although it takes 2x longer to execute but what a difference. I did have some ne issue with the “Excessive code..” so had to restart the process, didnt have any other issues. Keep it up!

Quick update: I checked in with our AI engineering team — can you try switching your model to Claude Opus 4.6 and see if you still get stuck in the loop? Want to confirm whether it persists in a different one. Also, for future reference, here’s a Figma Make troubleshooting guide: help.figma.com/hc/en-us/artic… ^ The suggestions on that page aren't applicable in this particular case, but wanted to give it to you for future reference!

@figma is everything okay? I had this going on a loop for an hour, and thats not the best of it. I had “I”ll Examine” for a consecutive 30 minutes”. Hope this entertaining part will get fixed !

@KimFigma Amazing, thank you for prompt reply!

@SimpleeAIO Thanks! I just forwarded this internally - I'll update when I get more info.

@KimFigma Default, I believe its Claude Sonnet

@SimpleeAIO Hey! Kim from Figma here. I'll check in with the Make team. Can you tell me what model you're using when you see this?

If you were happy when you were poor, you will be insanely happy if you get rich. If you were miserable, you will stay miserable, just with a lot less financial stress

Why not focus on fixing the game it self first before releasing any new features ? 1. Game FPS performance 2. Sound. Majority of players still face 35-55 fos on Streets, avg. fps on every map is 70-80, sound is just bad… Announce your game fix, you will have double the players coming back. Than work on new features.

Interactive mechanics on locations. #EscapefromTarkov

Epic. So good!
