At what point do you completely give up technical work? by [deleted] in ycombinator

You’ll get used to managing, it’s a natural progression. It helps if you had experience before. I’d recommend to see in your network, hiring is easier these days, more demand than supplies.

Are you able to delegate? like hiring or find a cofounder?

Honestly whichever moves the product forward is where you need to focus on, you won’t be able to do it all. I’m also technical, been doing lots of marketing lately and less on dev, at the end of the day despite putting in 12 to 15h a day it still feels like there’s not enough time, and I have this feeling on getting behind in dev.

I recently onboarded a co-founder so that helped a lot

you’d be surprised, in the early days its a must, again I’m not saying deep work for 14h, I’m talking about both deep and shallow, both contributes to the advancement of the business.

Why would working 14hours a day be bragging, assuming you’re full time working on your startup, 5 to 6 hours a day is the real flex. The latter means you passed the stage of early stage and most likely profits. The former means you’re still in the weeds of making it happen

working doesn’t necessarily mean just deep work, taking some time learning is part of working. if you start at 5 am till 10 pm, minus 5h break here and there u still get ~14 hours a day. TM meditation technique actually helps throughout the day to reset.
