Two weeks ago, @SahilBloom came up with this brilliant idea to have a single point-of-contact for all homeowner needs, like a landlord for your home. So I built a prototype. Plenty of work to go, but this is just the start. Like I said—million-dollar idea with a 'b'
There’s a huge opportunity in solving this problem: The friction of home ownership vs. renting. When you rent, you have a single point-of-contact for all problems. When you own, you have to somehow stay on top of the long list of recurring and one-off maintenance things. I’d

Nate Silver nailed this one. "If you choose to walk through the hallway where there are more doors, it's more likely you'll find an open one." Optionality is always +EV.

Krav Maga teaches the concept of "mushin," meaning mindless. If you have to think about the punch, you’re already hit. Coding in the age of AI is similar. When you're in the flow state, you aren't looking up syntax. You're just translating logic into reality. Practice doesn't

Told myself I’d clean up the logging for my OneHome app. Ended up adding: - notification reminders - subscription tiers - cleaner UI This is the best part of solo building. There's no Product Manager to change your priorities or tell you "no." What did you build this week?

French historian René Girard coined the term mimetic desire—our need to mirror what others want. It's why envy-based economies like NFTs, Pokémon cards, and priceless art flourish. I dive into more detail about why envy-based economies work in my upcoming blog. Don't miss it.

If I've learned one thing about going viral on this app, it's this: People will sh*t on your idea and say they can do better, and then they won't do better. Stay focused and you'll stand out.

"I want to learn AI" usually means "I want to learn how to prompt ChatGPT." That's not engineering. To actually build something, you need to get your hands dirty... And that's exactly what I teach—how to build out your idea into a working product. https://t.co/sNCspzbmml
