Ideas are really a dime a dozen. It doesn’t mean they’re not important. It means to get to one great idea, you probably should kill 100s of em.

Founder market fit is important. You should find problems that you uniquely would be incredible at solving.

thing about Elon products is you’re never wondering why something common sense isn’t in an app. Eg. How Gemini isn’t in google home in 2025 🤯. ani is a good example, they could’ve second guessed, but it was cool so it’s shipped, same with a lot of useful Tesla features.

sad Google is still fumbling the bag, they went full founder mode til Gemini caught up and wasn’t a joke and back to complacency. They have Android, chrome, google home, gmail, Chromebooks, docs. No memory, bare minimum ai feature across the stack, home still zero Gemini.
I simply do not understand why no company other than openAI is very seriously focusing on memory/personalization . it’s the main reason I use openAI. what shocks me is that barring grok (which has context of my tweets now) there’s no other AI company that is even trying to.

Most people have no idea how far 2 months of completely autistic level obsession can get you in any domain.

"negativity sells" is close to it's limit imho. I'm tired of movies/tv shows/news/games about depressing/stressful shit. pretty much only watching Apple TV, where there are great, feel good / inspiring shows. the world isn't all storm clouds and gloom.

2 types of ppl: ppl who chase and ppl who don't. my dad hustled his way out of poverty. more like @tomsiwik should speak out, it's bad when ppl virtue signal about others they have no idea about. if my dad spent all day worried about how unfair it is, i would've never existed.
I did not start privileged. I'm from Lituania and my parents busted off their asses to survive in Germany and I'm thankful for that. They taught me the same values when I went to study. no money for me. I hacked the neighbors wifi just to have internet. It's easy to find.

PESSIMISM naturally ends up at complaints and inaction. You just can't see a way out. OPTIMISM leads to getting stuff done, because you have hope you can change things for the better. Stay Optimistic, there’s absolutely zero advantages to pessimism.

A little motivation today: Solo (mostly) startup sells for $80M in cash. Lots of big tech startups willing to pay for your saas that takes off.
techcrunch.com
In Base44's six months as a stand-alone company, it reportedly grew to 250,000 users and was making nearly $200,000 in monthly profits.

Should you prioritize consistency, or prioritize only posting banger posts? It’s not like I have a banger thought every 2 hours though.

Is there an app you learned from #buildinpublic from a sub 100k follower builder that you actually paid for?. And what got you over the hump?.

Anyone else think it’s not really worth the effort and time to do distribution yourself?. It might be way more efficient to just partner with micro influencers who already spent countless hours grinding?.

There’s a world of difference between “driven”, and absolutely obsessed. IYKYK.

Great products are built on 1 or 2 must have features. Everything else merely revolves around it.

That accountants and bottom rung office jobs is more aspiring than building a house is a huge problem. Pushing spreadsheets is easily automate able, and thus unrewarding, and actually brings very little to society versus building a house. Completely backwards.
@zachweinberg As someone who helps build houses, it’s simply not going to happen without a massive change in the social structure of society. Home building is seen as a job for low skilled people, but the reality is it requires incredible skills that only come with experience.

after watching Cluey's product video, i'm going to take the other side here. attention with great product = win.attention with a brand people can love = win. just cracking the algo doesn't make me wanna buy.
