Built & launched an app using @ZohoCreator to help volunteers find beds for #COVID patients in #Chennai. Idea -> launch in 48 hrs 80 volunteers working in 3 shifts 300+ patients helped so far I am happy to help others build their #techforgood #lowcode app. DM and let's chat.

Claude Design - weekly limit exhausted in just building the design system :( What was interesting is that they used Google Form for feedback!! A company that can easily vibe code a feedback system went with Google Form!! MVP -> Iterate

Vibe code AI could become an Autocide. Trained on OSS could eventually kill OSS business models. After it kills OSS what would AI feed on?

@svembu With great power comes great responsibility. I vibe code but i am afraid of asking my junior devs to. Without strong understanding of code base and fundamentals code what they end up creating is very brittle. Shared memory ans shared context and a new way to train is a must.

AI makes senior architects more productive and reduces the need for junior engineers. The architect needs to understand the requirements as well as the technology stack well, to be able to guide the AI and fine tune its output. But if we don't have junior engineers, we don't get to train the next generation of architects - after all how does someone become a software architect without being a junior engineer first? I am still thinking through how this gets resolved.

@boltdotnew AI hackathon's build session is 🚀 #vibecoding #ai #startups

I thought I hated Gadget Guru. After seeing Tech with TG, Gadget Guru on NDTV was way better. TG on YouTube was good but on NDTV is like a flop masala movie.

Bonus Mistake: Delaying Your Search & Not Negotiating! ⏳ Don't wait till the last minute! Rushed decisions are bad decisions. And ALWAYS negotiate terms, rent, and concessions. You'd be surprised what you can get! #NegotiationSkills #Founders

Mistake 10: Neglecting Amenities & Culture Fit! ☕🛋️ Does the space inspire your team? Are there proper meeting rooms, good lighting, a comfortable break area? The environment impacts morale & productivity. Don't just pick a box! #CompanyCulture #EmployeeExperience

Mistake 9: Underestimating Utility & Maintenance Costs! 💡 Beyond rent, factor in electricity, internet, water, cleaning, and general upkeep. These add up faster than you think! Budget accordingly. #OperatingCosts #HiddenFees

Mistake 8: Skipping Lease Agreement Details! 📑 This is HUGE. Founders often sign without thoroughly reading or understanding clauses. Hidden costs, restrictive terms, unexpected liabilities – they're all lurking in the fine print! Get legal help! #LegalAdvice #LeaseAgreement

🚨 Founders, Listen Up! Your Office Space Search Can Make or Break Your Startup! 🏢 Avoid These 10+ Costly Mistakes! 🧵 #StartupTips #OfficeSpace #FounderLife

Mistake 7: Ignoring SCALABILITY! 📈 What happens when you double your team? Or need to downsize? Don't get locked into a space that can't grow or shrink with you. Future-proof your office decisions! #GrowthStrategy #BusinessPlanning

Mistake 6: Conventional Office in Early Stages (Thinking it's cheaper)! ⚙️ It might seem so, but the hidden overheads of managing a conventional office (utilities, maintenance, admin) are often grossly underestimated. It's a time and money sink! #StartupOperations

Mistake 5: Overprojecting Occupancy in a Hybrid World! 💻 You're hybrid? Awesome! But don't lease space for 100% capacity if only 60% show up. You'll be paying for empty desks! Data, not assumptions, should drive your projections. #HybridWork #FutureOfWork

Mistake 4: Obsessing Over BRAND IMAGE (Prematurely)! ✨ Premium spaces look good, but they demand premium rates. Balance that aspirational image with your current financial reality. Don't let rent eat your runway! #Branding #Bootstrapping

Mistake 3: Founder-Centric Location, NOT Team-Centric! 📍 Yes, you call the shots, but if the commute kills your team, productivity & morale will plummet. Make it convenient for EVERYONE! #TeamFirst #OfficeLocation

Mistake 2: Prioritizing Cost Over FLEXIBILITY! 💰 Long lock-ins seem cheaper upfront but can become a financial nightmare when things get tough. Prioritize monthly outlays & agility! #StartupFinance #Flexibility

Mistake 1: Choosing the WRONG Office Type! 🏡 vs. coworking vs. managed vs. conventional. Each has pros & cons. Don't blindly pick based on cost; assess YOUR startup's unique needs! A misstep here can be VERY costly. #Coworking #ManagedOffice
