we never hear from "losers". they never show up on podcasts. they don't get the hero treatment from Colossus or the New Yorker. thoughtbois don't write threads about their miraculous journey. I'm talking about the founder who couldn't find PMF and now works in mid-management sales at some Stagnant Series B. the junior VC who was let go after a year at a top-tier fund, and now coaches tennis in Hawaii and is a lovely hang. the CTO who had a toxic fallout with the founding team and never really got over it. i wish we made media about the people who didn't win. their stories have a different texture; their orientation to capitalism and tech isn't always so clear. when we just put the winners up on the pedestal, we lose sight of the beauty below.
i hate the words vibe coding and AI, these words are so commonly used that everyone thinks they can vibe code and use AI. entry barrier is too low thats why people who have actual knowledge about these things have to really stand out.
