My first job taught me discipline.
It taught me how to listen.
How to take feedback.
How to grow.
And how to cry silently in a bathroom stall.
It taught me how to listen.

Real leaders respect weekends.
We value rest.
We believe in boundaries.
There’s no pressure to be online after hours.
That’s why we keep standup short on weekends.

Weekends are your edge.
While others rest, you build.
No distractions.
No meetings.
Pure execution.
By Sunday night, you’ll be three days ahead of the rest.
And four years behind on your personal relationships.

In today's fast-paced world, we find ourselves at the precipice of mistrust.
Will 'Is it AI?' be the newest phrase to enter the zeitgeist?
Or can we trust in our wives' boyfriends?

We started with an idea.
And we hired one person to build it.
Two to make it look nice.
Ten to tell us how to grow it.
Now we have no product, a Notion workspace and a podcast.

Hot takes from a podcast:
"AI allows anyone to build complex apps with no code"
You say complex, I say cookie cutter.
"AI is evolving like a new, uncontrollable species"
A species born of reddit quips and parroted conspiracies.
"AGI is just around the corner."
There's always another corner.

My computer science degree did not prepare me for a career in tech.
I wasn’t taught how to build, scale or maintain.
I wasn’t taught how to delegate, collaborate or communicate.
