SaaS companies from pre-2021 or so that are >not< founder-led I see really struggling right now You have to find the AI-native company in you That's often a full reboot of how and what you build ... along with keeping your existing 1000s of customers happy Not easy Especially…
Sometimes you don’t raise money and your startup dies Sometimes you raise too much money and your startup dies It’s just one more way to die. There are 1001 ways. It’s not the most important question. The most important question is: did you make something people want?
🚀 Just got a DM from the @hackunited_ student crew behind United Hacks V5 and we’re buzzing! The 48-hour, worldwide, virtual hack fest is LIVE right now (12–13 July 2025) and they still have open seats.
Some are born with fire in their eyes.
At @codingal, we’ve fully embraced an AI-first engineering workflow - and it’s transformed how we build. Here’s how we ship faster with tools like Devin and Claude Code: 1️⃣ Every Linear task starts with a detailed technical description - engineering design doc for task…
💻777 code commits this year - and yes, I’m the CEO 🙂 AI-assisted coding (shoutout to Claude Code) has made it easier than ever to go from idea → product. We don’t just teach AI & coding to kids at @codingal - we live it. Now profitable & growing fast. Stay tuned 🚀
The mindset we used at Codingal.com to just keep growing. Whenever it felt like we were stuck, we found new ways! And we will continue to do that, whatever it takes.

Many product managers don't bind their ambitions with humility. They don't work on small things at all. So, small things get worse and they don't learn how to fix problems. They, therefore, fail at fixing big problems and big things also get worse. This is why it is such a…
For many founders, highlight of 2024 was executing in Founder Mode. Many interpreted it in different ways, but smart founders knew what they had to do, or what they were doing already was explained by “Founder Mode”. paulgraham.com/foundermode.ht…
This is false, but it might be a good thing if belief in it became moderately widespread, because then all the remaining programmers would be in it for love and not just for money.

Sometimes I wish I could go back to when I was 19 again and just built stuff I thought was cool without thinking a second thought about whether it'd be a good business.
People just don’t realize how hard early stage startups are.. And by chance you find PMF, you are given EVEN harder problems. Most employees (including founders) don’t scale, burn out, quit - as they deal with larger orgs and hyper growth. Easy to comment on the sidelines,…
This section from the Mr Beast onboarding guide is how every company should handle promotions.
Building a startup feels like fighting a war on N different fronts at the same time! They are always very specific in nature, e.g. lowering the transaction costs, reducing marketing expenses while ensuring leads continue to grow, reducing the expenses, optimizing servers &…
Makes so much sense!
