we spent the last four years reimagining what finance can be, unburdened by what has been. runway makes clear the significance of the passage of time in the context of all in which your business lives and what came before you. this is the result 👇

you think all you need is the next productivity hack, the next clever tactic, the next morning routine. what you actually need is the recognition and dissolution of the shame that is invisibly self sabotaging you in every moment.

If I can teach you one thing; it's to never ever doubt your instinct. If your instinct tells you something, it's right. Your gut, your instinct is god's gift. If you ignore it, you disrespect him. Follow. Your. Instinct.

excited to welcome soham parekh (ex synesthesia, lindy, antimetal) to @runwayco. we've never seen stronger performance on our engineering interviews so we decided to offer him the roles of staff engineer, principal engineer, and principal staff engineer, and he's accepted all 3.

in retrospect it's remarkable how much of my growth boils down to learning how to feel less shame about myself.

i personally believe billionaires should not exist - only people who organize the proletariat to seize the means of production so they can live the lifestyle of a billionaire as a member of the politburo should exist.

for the elite level vibe coders: what are the tools / workflows you are using to run multiple instances of claude code / codex agents in parallel in a containerized environment?. is there something like a productized version of claude-squad in the cloud?.

“Fun” is my favorite adjective to hear from customers about Runway. “the product has been so easy to learn, and has somehow actually made a software implementation fun. I have never enjoyed learning a new platform this much.”. thank you @fieldguide!

what does it look like when your product is working?. sometimes it’s obvious — like a spike in usage. sometimes it’s subtle — like a customer saying “this is the first time I’ve actually enjoyed planning headcount.” and sometimes the signal comes from somewhere you don’t control.

i used to think i’m pretty good at figuring out the right thing to do eventually but then i saw this buffett quote: . “what the wise man does in the beginning, the fool does in the end” . and now it lives rent free in my head. 🤦‍♂️.
