Great product teams know that design versus function should never be an either/or question. #prodmgmt

So, no moat, except for all the things that make it a moat.
I’ve heard many argue that in the AI era, the “time to impact” at a startup is now less than 3-4 years That is mostly incorrect It is certainly possible to ramp and start shipping impact faster now. “Time to first value” is down from perhaps 1-2 months to 1-2 weeks But to have a lasting impact requires scaling products, building teams, improving the way the company operates. That stuff still takes years, and this take from Gokul is still very good advice (Recently wrote about when the right time is to quit: open.substack.com/pub/danhoc…)

Best make-up for the digital presence, fast, effective, cheap and no synthetic chemicals.

Nobody watched the videos they recorded in a concert.
Nobody has ever finished a book they downloaded as a PDF.

Good job, Gemini.

When everyone can build almost anything, the advantage shifts from execution to judgment. As intelligence makes building cheaper and more accessible, the products people desire most will be the ones shaped by people who know what to add, what to leave out, and how to make every detail feel intentional. taste, not capability, will separate the forgettable from the iconic.

The new word for 'event' seems to be 'takeover'.

Finally ditched my Mac for a Framework laptop! I installed Omarchy Linux, and now I'm using Grokbot alongside a local instance of GLM-5.3-Flash. 🚀 Just kidding, keeping my good ol' stack. 🤣

Switching to fable just for cursing, then back to Opus.

70%! Based on my testing of dark chocolates with cacao ratios ranging from 55% to 100%, I've found that 70% offers the most balanced flavor.

Data doesn't replace intuition. It legitimizes it and makes it easier to communicate.

Life hack: Say you're a VC. You don't need to invest. People and friends will swarm you. Socializing and dating have never been so easy.

Adopt a lifestyle where your body requires more water. It's simply a natural way of "drinking more water."

I built something I've wanted for years. It's called STFU - Standard Fundament. The problem: YouTube is full of 20-30 minute videos where the actual useful content is 2 minutes. Clickbait titles, long intros, sponsor breaks, padded conclusions... All eating up your time. So I built a Chrome extension that fixes it. STFU adds a button directly below every YouTube video. One click opens the summary on stfu.cc. 3-5 bullets of what the video actually says. No fluff, just the substance. The name is intentional. Sometimes you just want the content to the STandard FUndament. Install it at stfu.cc — would love your feedback 🙏
