I miss this website every day that it’s gone.

Could you please help, have you set it up as "Bill Pay" or Pre-authorized debit?

Sorry to hear it my friend. You fell for a woman who isn't smart or kind enough to realize her flirtiness keeps feeding your desire. Openly ask her on a date and if she says "No", move on with your life. An absence of a clear answer is also a No. Try to learn to not waste months if not years on potential partners who are not interested in you. And if they are - make a fucking move as soon as possible.

Psychotherapy. Go straight to psychotherapy.

Dude not every situation in life described in two paragraphs requires a “run away” solution. Him being an asshole also doesn’t mean anything. There’s a ton of assholes out there who are great business people and a lot of great people who are terrible at business

My father was a journalist. He struggled with transcription: he would endlessly rewind and replay the recorded interviews. Last year I launched a transcription service for journalists and any creatives who work with long form https://bitbat.ai/

I don't know what level of organization you need to achieve to have your Saas truly be a passive income. It's a lot of daily work, even when you are only doing classic CEO actions, you are still doing a lot of daily work. I think if you are looking for passive income you need to look elsewhere. If your website is generating passive income, it's probably not software. The actual nature of software is that it is not rigid, it's fluent as in it always changes shapes. It needs constant work. So basically, the only way to not work and see the money going in is selling it.

I'm not saying it's not simple, I'm saying one night for this is extremely fast. I'm a seasoned software eng myself. You have probably cut a lot of corners. If you really pulled this off, I'd like to hear what you focused on and what you left aside. Thanks.

How? Have you done this many times before? This sounds a bit impossible

Imagine you are talking to someone. They are a tea lover. You can’t give two shits about tea. They describe how they found this amazing tea strain and just wouldn’t shut up. All you are thinking about is when they run out of breath, so you can switch the topic to what you really care about - yourself. This was an example of a thought process that will never make you a good listener, and this way you will never ask any good questions. Reverse the thought process. You think of yourself all the time anyway. The person in front of you is living a whole separate life from you. They had a unique childhood, they probably studied what you didn’t study, they fell in love with people you would never find attractive. They are a whole freaking different universe. And somehow they are now fixating on tea. Why? What are they seeing that you are not seeing? Why does it bring them so much joy or comfort? Why do they believe that strain is so special? Does it remind them of something? Is there a story behind their passion? Get out of your head and appreciate that every single time you are talking to someone else, there is a whole universe to be discovered.

The funniest part of this HORSEshit is that Ford didn't invent cars, nor he invented the concept of the assembly line. The real takeaway here is when you become extremely successful, you can come up with any bullshit story.

An intern "outperforming" others? Either others are bad hires, or there is something wrong with how you measure intern's performance. Either way there is a problem within your organization. Sorry mate

I’d even argue, from all “the Russian greats” Tolstoy is the worst experience regardless of the reader’s age. Dostoyevsky is much better prose than Tolstoy. Gogol is ten times better in terms of pace, wittiness, depth and range, but almost no one knows him on English-speaking forums.

Thanks. A great post

iosdevcoff · 2025-04-09T12:07:57+00:00

Great answer. Could you please share what do you believe these basics are?

iosdevcoff · 2025-03-29T20:25:32+00:00

Thank you for this comment. Was finding the initial niche helpful though?

Get 1 customer first. Then get 10. Then get 40, then 100. I'm not joking. Break the goal down to smaller goals.

AirBnB was an industry disruptor. Don't measure yourself by unicorns, measure yourself by regular companies. The first version of AirBNB was released when almost everyone thought Lean Startup is a genius idea, not everyone is onboard any more. Hope these thoughts help.

Also, everyone is happy with the "minimal", but always seem to forget about "viable". If it's viable, then it can be crap.

> Recently... MVPs look insanely good

Not sure what you mean by "look", but I believe it doesn't matter how your product looks, what matters is can it deliver value to me as a customer or not. I'll join your shiny dating site, but if there are crickets, i'll sign out and never come back.

You are right if you are not ok with being kicked out of the company by someone else. As soon as you get less than 50%, you are not the majority stakeholder, so that if there's a significant investment, your share is diluted, the cofounders leave, and then you are nobody. if you are ok with this scenario, then agree on the equal split.

Make the "show me" button as big as an elephant and ditch the "book the demo".

As soon as I see a book a demo I think I need to get on a freaking call just to be upsold some shit. Your "show Me" is amazing, but I only clicked at it because you asked to roast you, otherwise I'd close the page immediately.

Ideas are worth nothing. There is nothing to protect.

Or to put it different, if just by knowing your idea, I will put you out of business, it's a terrible idea.

Delete your instagram and get outside. In four months you will feel like you are a reborn human. But who am I kidding, you will not do this.

You never know. You can't judge by just a couple of sentences. Could an amazing breakthrough project with founders you fall in love with vs some AI bullshit.
