@douglasqian Roadmaps too. If you know exactly what you're building, it should already be built.

Coconote is one of the best-designed and marketed consumer AI apps out there. The app is packed with delightful and novel AI features and their short-videos are hilarious. A lot of apps have the former, few have the latter. @edenxojay/video/7500759309672828191" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">tiktok.com/@edenxojay/vid…

I got into YC twice. The first time, we got acquired. Runtime (P26) is part of @ycombinator.
 After Mentum's acquisition, I shipped 4 full-stack products at Nuvocargo in 3 months, then enabled the rest of the team to do the same. I obsessed over making it so easy and safe that anyone can spin up an environment in milliseconds, prompt, deploy, and create PRs.
 At Runtime, we give teams guardrails and observability to enable anyone to ship with coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Copilot, etc.) We’re already working with YC scaleups and used in 40 countries with zero ad spend. Some customers are enabling their product, design, marketing, and ops teams to contribute to existing codebases or build production-grade apps from scratch.
 Excited to be working again with @aaron_epstein, and now Charlie Warren, @dessaigne and @collinmathilde For our early customers, we're giving a forward deployed CTO treatment. DM me and I will personally set your sandboxes. Also, we're hiring our founding team. If you want to build at the bleeding edge of sandboxes and background agents, or build content, growth, and community in SF, reach out.

I rebuilt my YC W21 company in 1 hour. Introducing Townies dot AI, a marketplace for AI local experts. Instead of spending months building an app and acquiring human local experts, I used @scott_ai_, Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, and AI for supply side.

Design.md isn't your design system. With design systems in Magic Patterns, AI uses your: - Components (syncs to codebase via MCP) - Typography (can use custom fonts) - Color tokens (import from Figma / tokens.json) - Icons (any library) - Spacing tokens - Rules

Hey, I’m Gus (pronounced goose). My YC company got acquired 6 months ago. Now I’m building Runtime (runtm .com). We give guardrails and visibility so you can enable anyone in your org to ship with coding agents. I turned 27 this weekend and jumped out of a plane at 9,000 feet to kick things off. I’m fairly new to posting on X. Will be building in public here. Stick around and say hi if you’re in SF!

Great men of history had little to no introspection. The personality that builds empires is not the same personality that sits around quietly questioning itself. @pmarca and I discuss what we both noticed but no one talks about: David: You don't have any levels of introspection? Marc: Yes, zero. As little as possible. David: Why? Marc: Move forward. Go! I found people who dwell in the past get stuck in the past. It's a real problem and it's a problem at work and it's a problem at home. David: So I've read 400 biographies of history’s greatest entrepreneurs and someone asked me what the most surprising thing I’ve learned from this was [and I answered] they have little or zero introspection. Sam Walton didn't wake up thinking about his internal self. He just woke up and was like: I like building Walmart. I'm going to keep building Walmart. I'm going to make more Walmarts. And he just kept doing it over and over again. Marc: If you go back 400 years ago it never would've occurred to anybody to be introspective. All of the modern conceptions around introspection and therapy, and all the things that kind of result from that are, a kind of a manufacture of the 1910s, 1920s. Great men of history didn't sit around doing this stuff. The individual runs and does all these things and builds things and builds empires and builds companies and builds technology. And then this kind of this kind of guilt based whammy kind of showed up from Europe. A lot of it from Vienna in 1910, 1920s, Freud and all that entire movement. And kind of turned all that inward and basically said, okay, now we need to basically second guess the individual. We need to criticize the individual. The individual needs to self criticize. The individual needs to feel guilt, needs to look backwards, needs to dwell in the past. It never resonated with me.

Dalton Caldwell@daltonc·
New Dalton + Michael episode released: "How to get unique startup ideas" One of the biggest problems founders and (builders in general) have right now is not "how do I build my MVP?" but instead "what idea should I be working on?" It feels like all of the good ideas are taken, and the competition for those ideas is ruthless. In this episode, we discuss some of the starting conditions for coming up with unique startup ideas, and why it can feel so hard to come up with something that is both: 1) something people want and 2) original. We discuss some tactics you consider trying that are more likely to yield differentiated startup ideas vs derivations of whatever The Current Thing is. 🔗 below

5 minutes ago, @karpathy just dropped karpathy/jobs! he scraped every job in the US economy (342 occupations from BLS), scored each one's AI exposure 0-10 using an LLM, and visualized it as a treemap. if your whole job happens on a screen you're cooked. average score across all jobs is 5.3/10. software devs: 8-9. roofers: 0-1. medical transcriptionists: 10/10 💀 karpathy.ai/jobs
