Your risk averse people are limiting your growth. Specifically your rate of growth. If you want to grow you need to weed out your risk averse people. This is how companies stop growing. It’s natural to promote the people who have never done anything wrong. But they are also the ones who have never built anything of substance. Down the road you are going to look back wondering why the company is stagnant. The answer, you surrounded yourself with risk averse yes men.

Facebook won because I used a social graph effectively and had searching capabilities that Myspace didn't. Because of the graph Facebook could suggest friends. Myspace couldn't. Facebook users could connect rapidly. Myspace users couldn't.
In 2006, MySpace had 115M users and was bigger than Google. 5 years later, they sold for close to nothing. Their downfall took everyone by surprise... Except for Mark Zuckerburg, who'd spotted their biggest weakness and orchestrated their downfall. Here's how Zuck did it 🧵

We need svelte to be integrated with LLMs ASAP. The LLMs that I have used are using react sometimes even when you tell them to use sveltekit. Replit only uses react. Claude uses react by default. GPT uses react by default. People will stop using svelte if LLMs aren't trained on it

Based on this podcast these are my 2025 predictions - Grok AI will be overtake the LLM market as the clear winner - Twitter/ X will have a massive influx of new users - ChatGPT and openAI will slowly die, maybe suddenly - Sora won't save openai - The lesson from openai's failure will be that you cannot launch without a moat and everyone will be afraid to launch new stuff. - Elon will again be the times most influential person of the year

Listening to @noahkagan 's book Million dollar weekend. He mentioned being a "problem seeker" instead of a "problem solver"-- so good Then it occured to me that product people are problem solvers and sales people are the problem seekers

@BasedDaedalus The negative emotions are signals of deeper problems that need to be addressed. They are trying to tell you something. Reverse engineer why these negative emotions are coming up and then the solutions will reveal themselves.
