If I look at the last 15 years of knowing people in startups, and then seeing who became successful and who didn't, I'm starting to see some general patterns The people I know who became successful (and very rich) regularly asked for help and feedback, and then applied that feedback very quickly (think minutes) and shipped fast while maintaining their own vision The people who didn't become successful are the ones who worked on stuff for months/years without asking for help or feedback, or when they did took weeks/months to apply it So I think the feedback -> implement loop and speed of it is possibly very important

Stripe offered to acquire us for $1.2 billion when we had $2M in revenue. Today, we've raised $330M at an $8B valuation and reached $1B ARR. We could've died three times during this journey. This is the story I've never told anyone before:

AI coding model update: I'm loving Gemini 3 ❤️ It's really feeling like a step up from the other models (my favourite before was Sonnet Opus 4.5). Gets me 95% there and then actually takes me that last 5% (instead of just breaking things constantly).

@rorvswild Heya. Just got rolling and the app works great! Strangely, the deployments aren't appearing. I'm using a simple kamal deploy (kamal v2).

Finally made it to @euruko! After 7 days on the road, 1,807 km, and 20 towns, I’m exhausted but super happy and excited to be here. Anyone around for a drink?
