Got interviewed by Stripe. We talk about: – why I charge from day one, – why I only build things I personally need, – and how a stranger in Bali once recommended my own product back to me without knowing I built it. Also got into the real stuff:... show more

Jack who makes $40K/month as a solopreneur says: his secret to founder life is working in sprints... "Every week that I work is really completely different and that's kind of the whole reason why I got into being a founder is so I could choose to do that whenever I want." "And also if it's really nice outside, that also revolves in why I only work two hours some days, because maybe I want to go outside and like play sports with my fiancee or just go on a walk, and I want to be able to do that, and that's kind of the whole reason why I got into being a founder is so I could choose to do that whenever I want."

.Thomas Laffont got a job in CAA’s mailroom by calling every day for six months: "There was one agent who had gone to Yale, Sally Wilcox. I called her every day for six months at the same time." "Finally one day I got a call back from her and she says, 'What's it going to take for you to stop calling me?'" "I said, 'I want an interview.'" "She said, 'If you agree to move to LA and you call me after, I'll get you an interview.'" "I moved the first week of June after I graduated. I called her and said, 'Remember you told me if I moved, you would give me the interview?' and she did. I interviewed and was my first day in the CAA mailroom was July 7th, 1997."

Brady Anderson got Trey Mancini back into baseball, now they reunite again with the Angels: "He's the one who got me back into the game in the first place. He texted me 2 summers ago when I wasn't playing in 2024... I was just playing tennis and pickleball twice a day and Brady texted me and basically told me he thinks I need to give it another shot... I went out with him a few months later and that's what got me back into the game"

Jack Friks who makes $40K MRR as a solo founder, says: that some days he only works for 1-2 hours! "Some weeks I will work an hour or two a day, and then other weeks I'll work for, like, 8 or 10 hours a day." "Every week that I work is really completely different, and that's kinda the whole reason why I got into being a founder, is so I could choose to do that whenever I want." "The more money I made, the less I in turn felt like I needed to work a lot. A big turning point for me was seeing my monthly recurring revenue actually be above a few thousand a month. I knew I could live off this."

I spent a week ignoring everyone who said to switch engines. Day 7, I pivot. You were right. Building GTA 6 with a loop of AI agents. I spent the entire day on one thing: Swapping the project out of Godot and onto Unreal. Yesterday I said I'd test Unity and probably skip Unreal. You guys pushed back hard: if you're serious about AAA, get on a real engine. so here we are. What a full day of "just setup" actually looks like: - Installed and configured Unreal - Fought it onto a Mac build (the metal toolchain nearly ended me) - Migrated the project over - Got into a real Map and building assets - Got a scene rendering with real lighting First time this actually looks like GTA instead of a prototype of it. I'm still wiring the agents into the editor and point the loop at a real engine. Feedback is appreciated!

We live in the solo founder era. That's for sure and building with AI has accelerated. I am building software to use for myself and replace the expensive tools I used to use. And partially thanks to AI we can build faster, but not dramatically faster if you want to build a commercial grade product. Before I was using a live chat and customer support tool that costed around 50-100$ a month. This helped me to interact with the customers of my agency or prospects. But I decided a few months ago to build my own and stop paying for these more expensive solutions. I did and turned into a product for everyone to use. The build was not 1-2 hours of work using AI, but it was a several-month process on and off as I needed it. Finally, it has turned into a commercial grade product. I have built several of these and this is when we will see more and more solutions like these. Let's start bootstrapping before showing MRR figures.

My interview with Kanyuk, from Flash Battalion, on how he volunteered to fight for Ukraine, became a drone pilot, got injured... and how he wants to get back in the fight as soon as he recovers. With help from solana:25JUPL6ksapY1iCLWkFcSaXaA6Ar3W7JDCdPjeSApump! "It's just a flesh wound!" 😁 I filmed this about a month ago; for his safety I had to wait until he got out of hospital and left Kyiv to actually publish the video. I didn't know it at the time. But it turns out I actually spoke to Kanyuk and another soldier at his position a few months ago. They had a problem with their generator, and I was helping them debug it. In the end I found a replacement generator small enough to fly into forward positions on a vampire drone, a technique that we used for a different forward position that had also lost its generator.

I don't go into meetings and talk about $50 million or $100 million. We talk billions. The companies I’ve dealt with always talk billions. When they take you to their factories, they show you the industry and what they’ve accomplished. It gives me encouragement as a black man, knowing I can also achieve that. I see it elsewhere, and that’s why I believe in it.

For all the 2+2 fans out there, here is a few pics and short video of my officially finished project... I'm not adding up how much 💵 I got into it or how many hrs I got into it, because I'd probably be sick...but at the end of the day that isn't why I did it.. one of only 272 built, and I've always wanted one.. Enjoy!

“I used to talk to a crack in the ceiling. And then we got into the tunnel and I switched to a small LED light. And then we got to a different tunnel, and then there was only darkness. And this is when I first said the word God. And from that point on, I spoke to God.” —Or Levy

.Chris Bungard reveals that the nickname ‘The Bad Guy’ actually comes from the darkest day of his life: “We got in a fight in a football park, and I threw one punch… he swallowed his tongue and he took a seizure. That was the darkest day of my life. I got taken to a police cell, and I didn’t really know how the boy was or stuff like that... It made me look at life a bit differently, I matured a wee bit.”

When AI took off a few years ago, I launched a podcast (typical VC move) to talk to the people building all the coolest stuff. It was fun, and I learned a lot. But I quickly realized every tech podcast looks the same. Including mine. And I got bored. Then, I got inspired by new formats from shows like TBPN and indievc, and tested a few episodes where I got out of the office (with my dude Semil) and out into the real world and ditched the prep materials. It was a lot more fun, and the viewers seemed to like it, too. So today, we at Lightspeed are launching a new show dedicated to just that: No office, no Zoom, no filter. It's called Out of Office. The first episode, featuring my good friend Casey Neistat, drops on Tuesday. It's a good hang. Subscribe below. K thanks.

.James Talarico: I know how to fight. But what we need in addition to fighting is winning. That’s what we’re missing in our party. And I have a track record of doing that. I got elected by flipping a Trump district. In the legislature, not only did I help kill bad Republican bills — I actually got stuff done too.

Bryan Johnson explains why he started growing his own food instead of buying it from stores “We’ve learned that toxins are in almost every food. One example: I was eating lentils and the test came back high, so we started looking into why these lentils had high levels of heavy metals. We reached out to the company and found out they were using human sludge as fertilizer, and that’s how the heavy metals got into it” “I want to source my own food, test it, and know exactly what I’m putting into my body”
