My real blocker in launching products is finding more PMs/ceos that can be obsessive in the pre pmf phase. I think of PMs as CEOs.
Nearly everything you build will fail. The only variable under your control is how fast you iterate and keep pushing, and without a lead that can actually do this for 2 cycles, you are order magnitude less likely to succeed.
My advice to startup founders is that post pmf companies look completely different then pre pmf.
Pre pmf CEO/product lead needs to micro manage and get into everyone’s business. Until the people revolt because they are so busy dealing with actual growth problems and know better than the CEO.
I was force pushing code and telling ICs what to code until one by one the demand was breaking things that they knew how to fix better than me.
The best I can say is that all my ideas were directionally right and the ways they were wrong were fixable later.
🥹 i took down my actual frame to set this up in my living room, and I’ve also made it my profile picture on private social media.
I love it!

We believe voice is the most natural way to interact with intelligence, so we created Dessa, the most authentic full-duplex speech model ever built. Talking with it feels like talking with a person…full of emotion, nuance, pauses, and a natural cadence.

I just solved "Robotics Engineering" education with Opus 5.5 + /colorfigures skill
no need to spend $1000+ on a starter kit to learn what a resistor does, just visit my interactive site:
• 13 real boards: Arduino Uno, L298N, Raspberry Pi 5...
• build part by part: pick & place, reflow, solder, plug in
• break them on purpose: reversed caps pop, chips smoke, LEDs burn out
send the skill to your Claude:

VC: impressive growth. are you working on any side projects?
Founder: bro my whole life is a side project. im an artist, really. a tastemaker. a modern day philosopher more than anything. my success is effortless, a product of the foundations of reality and the purest manifestation of the lightcone itself. im whimisical and sophisticated. value creation and shareholder value was never the point, its simply a byproduct of my most basic essence. I can’t help it. me and my friends host dinners. cool dinners, the kind with girls and stuff. i wasn’t cool in middle school, which is my core trauma, but I’ve done the work. im healed, fully. just doing what I love.
but to answer your question no im not working on any side projects
I thought: how can I make reading books as addictive as watching movies on Netflix?
My thought led me to release BookFlix. And I’ve gotten over 400 users in two weeks of launch.
What do you think?
