"The point isn't that grants are bad. The point is that comfort can be dangerous when your goal is to build something that changes the world. " View quoted note →

Business insight INSIGHT #2: GOVERNMENT GRANTS MIGHT BE MAKING YOUR STARTUP WEAKER Korea's government has invested heavily in its startup ecosystem through non-dilutive grants, and a lot of founders in the room had taken them. Ethan wasn't here to shame anyone for that -- but he was willing to name the downside that most people won't. "I think that kind of dilutes the desperation that some startups should have." His argument: desperation, when channeled correctly, is rocket fuel. When a startup has enough runway from a government grant to survive mediocrity, some of them do exactly that. They settle. They don't make the hard pivots. They don't push hard enough on distribution. They optimize for survival instead of breakout. Eric echoed this with a passage from the book, Same as Ever , by Morgan Housel: a tree planted in an open field with all the sunshine and space it needs grows quickly -- but its wood is weak and porous. A tree in a dense forest, competing for light and nutrients, grows slowly -- but its wood is dense, hard, and can last a thousand years. The point isn't that grants are bad. The point is that comfort can be dangerous when your goal is to build something that changes the world. Real startups run on urgency.

I feel like I did 3 months worth of work in the last 5 days. The winds are a-changing

While I have extra capacity, Lets see how many releases we can pull off before the end of summer 😂

And special congrats to @ButtercupRoberts for making her first few pull requests to the hivetalk team. I'm really proud of her! Going from zero to code and merge!

Every week, we're going to do a new @HiveTalk release. Gonna try a little experiment here for a few weeks. @ButtercupRoberts will be running a testing room at the end of every week so feel free to hop in if you want to try the latest features and please give Feedback!!!!!!!

GM, 100 agents on the wall, take one down, pass'm around, 99 agents on the wall....

I feel more sane and calmer when I'm not looking at social media everyday but sometimes I'll just post my thoughts randomly and occasionally from a no-feed client, and come back later to view comments. Does anyone else do this?

Private AI on your mac.

June: The private way to use AI on your desktop

Chat, dictation, meeting notes, and an agent in one desktop app, designed so you never have to wonder where your words went.

It used to be a 1 person automation could easily eliminate 100s of people, today it really feels like AI easily replacing 1000s in a matter of days or weeks. Feels like the 2027 forecast is still on track... not sure the 2040 plan is within our possibility anymore, but you can read it if you want.
