I've been digging into startup ideas that are obvious in hindsight but somehow still unbuilt And I've got a cash-flowing startup idea for you today... 84% of solo female travelers report feeling unsafe, yet every major travel platform still prioritizes thread counts and breakfast reviews over the basic question:...

Mark Zuckerberg’s advice to 19 year olds that want to have an impact Even though Zuckerberg was 19 when he started Facebook, he advises not turning your idea into a company until it’s working: “I always think the most important thing entrepreneurs should do is pick something they care about and work on it, but don’t actually commit to turning it into a company until it’s working. If you look at the data of the very best companies, I think a tremendous percentage of them have been built that way and not from people who decided upfront that they wanted to start a company because you just get locked into a local maxima a lot of the time.” Sam Altman agrees. Facebook didn’t become a formal company until 6 months in when Peter Thiel invested. In fact, Mark and Dustin Moskovitz even told Peter that they were still planning on going back to school for their Fall semester. Paul Graham gives similar advice in his essay “Want to start a startup?”: “So if you want to start a startup one day, what should you do in college? There are only two things you need initially: an idea and cofounders… [and] the way to get startup ideas is not to try to think of startup ideas… if you make a conscious effort to think of startup ideas, the ideas you come up with will not merely be bad, but bad and plausible-sounding, meaning you'll waste a lot of time on them before realizing they're bad. The way to come up with good startup ideas is to take a step back. Instead of making a conscious effort to think of startup ideas, turn your mind into the type that startup ideas form in without any conscious effort. In fact, so unconsciously that you don't even realize at first that they're startup ideas. This is not only possible, it's how Apple, Yahoo, Google, and Facebook all got started. None of these companies were even meant to be companies at first. They were all just side projects. The best startups almost have to start as side projects, because great ideas tend to be such outliers that your conscious mind would reject them as ideas for companies.”

Paul Graham’s advice for future startup founders: “Just learn” “If you make a conscious effort to try and think of startup ideas, you will think of ideas that are not only bad but bad and plausible-sounding—meaning you and everybody else will be fooled by them and you’ll waste a lot of time before realizing they’re no good.” As Paul Graham explains, the way to come up with good startup ideas is to take a step back: “Instead of trying to make a conscious effort to think of startup ideas, turn your brain into the type that has startup ideas unconsciously.” You do this by: 1. Learning a lot about things that matter 2. Working on problems that interest you 3. With people you like and respect (this is incidentally how you get co-founders at the same time as the idea) “The component of entrepreneurship that really matters is domain expertise. Larry Page is Larry Page because he was an expert on search. And he became an expert on search because he was genuinely interested in it, not because of some ulterior motive.” PG continues: “At its best, starting a startup is merely an ulterior motive for curiosity, and you’ll do it best if you introduce the ulterior motive at the end of the process. So here is the ultimate advice for young, would-be startup founders reduced to two words: Just learn.” Video source: Y Combinator (2017)

Harry about why he chose to do residencies in certain cities on Zane Lowe “I think it makes the show better. I think you can build something that doesn't have to travel every night. I think the show itself is better. I think there's something in this that allows me to like stay in my life while I'm doing it and therefore I think allows me to take care of myself better, which I think makes me better at doing the thing. It's not like I'm saying I'll never travel again, but I want to see what it looks like if you do it a different way. And you know, people in my band have like families now and kids and some aspect of that, too. It's really important to me that they're on the road that I would love to like have them and I don't want to make it like near impossible for them to be able to do that with me.”

IANS Exclusive Watch: When asked if she feels anger or frustration that films in 2026 still need to teach society about women’s and children’s issues, actress Rani Mukerji says, "I would like to say that, of course, there is a struggle every day in everybody's life. Every country is going through this problem of women's safety, child safety. But what is important is what we are doing to improve that. You know, today, a Nirbhaya squad or a Damini squad, all the squads, all the helplines that have been introduced for the safety of women and children, those are positive steps towards ensuring that every girl, every child gets the help. So I think we have to look at that and hope for a better future, hope for a better India"

✨ To inspire more people to go build something now that we have AI to help us (especially non-tech people, cause I still know so many who are scared of building something): I added a [ BUILD IT ] button to It's like a mini-Lovable/Replit/v0: Any idea you see you like, you can click [ BUILD IT ], and it will use Opus 4.6 to build a landing page for it And then you can download the code it generated It's not a full startup of course, but a nice preview of what it can be, to give you an idea and inspire you to build it out further The code is live streamed also so you can see it being built 😊 Ironically this itself took me 1 hour to build with AI too Completely free and I pay for the tokens (please don't abuse it :D)

JD Vance reveals the problem with building a colony on Mars & space travel JD: "One of the things I've talked with Elon about—and Elon is obviously a super smart dude—is that I've never heard a super satisfying answer to this. One of the things that worries me is that I want humans to be a multiplanetary species. I want us to go to Mars and set up a colony. I love humanity, and I want it to continue. The problem with space travel that I have, and again, I've not heard a satisfactory solution to it, is that when we're outside of the Earth's gravity, our genes—our actual DNA—seems to not function as well when it's not in Earth-style gravity. Which makes sense, right? We developed in these conditions with this gravity. Whenever you have somebody who goes to the International Space Station for three months or six months, they come back and they are totally jacked up because, literally, the cells in their body are starting to discombobulate in response to a low-gravity environment. We have to figure out a solution to that problem. That, to me, is sort of the most interesting part of space travel, of going to Mars or setting up a colony on another planet. If you set up a colony on Mars, and it takes you two years to get there and two years to get back, in that time, you've gone from a functioning, healthy adult to dead if you're in space for four years. That part of space travel is very fascinating to me, and I don't know that I've heard any satisfactory solution to it yet."

Sam Altman on why you shouldn’t track absolute user growth in the early days of a startup “Nothing but a great product will save you; you can get everything else right and it still won’t work.” He points out that almost all startup founders get the following wrong: “It is more important to have a small number of users that love you than a lot of users that like you… Eventually what you want of course is a lot of users that really love your product, but that’s almost impossible to do.” In practice, you have two choices: Deep and Narrow: “You have a small number of users that really love you and then find out how to find more and more of those users and broaden the appeal of the product.” Shallow and Wide: “You can have a lot of people that sort of use the product once or twice and kind of like it and try to figure out how to get them more engaged over time.” “With high confidence, I can say that you want to start with a small number of users that really love you. Almost all great companies have products that start this way.” He argues that a good indicator of users loving your product is retention and frequency of use: “In fact, I think this is so important that you actually shouldn’t track absolute growth in number of users in the early days of a startup. You should just track how often they’re using it… That’s a good early indicator of users that love you—better still is them spontaneously telling their friends to buy your product.” Follow Startup Archive for more tactical startup advice!

When I hit 30, I couldn’t fall asleep. I became zombie. But I learned that sleep is something you can get good at. I became a sleep nerd. Cold room. No devices. Smart mattress. Did everything the Hubermans of the world told me to do. Then Jonathan Courtney (marketing legend Jonathan Courtney) walked into my podcast with a secret weapon - deep brown noise. Not white noise—brown. He says it completely changed his sleep game And that there is a $10M startup idea to build an AI-powered deep brown noise machine. What’s brown noise? To be honest, I had no idea. Think of it as white noise's deeper, chiller cousin. Jonathan lives around nightclubs in Berlin. It drowns out even the thumping beats of those nightclubs. Jonathan just hits play on his brown noise Spotify playlist, and boom—silence. Sorry Berghain, not tonight. Recording this episode, I couldn't stop laughing. This was the most fun I've ever had recording a podcast. And I’ve recorded 150+ episodes. If you're a sleep nerd or into cash-flowing free startup ideas, enjoy this episode of The Startup Ideas Podcast (SIP). You can listen on your platform of choice: Apple Spotify YouTube: Love to hear any sleeping tips you have. Or any startup ideas too :). I give startup ideas out every week to get your creative juices flowing. Free for you to sip on.

Travel has a funny way of showing you your real baseline. I was away, crossed time zones, took long flights, stayed busy, ate well, met people, kept moving - and then came back and crashed. That is real life. You can have the best routine at home, but the real test is what happens when the rhythm breaks. Can you sleep when your schedule is off? Can you move after days of travel? Can you enjoy food without guilt? Can you come back and reset without making it dramatic? For me, that is where longevity becomes practical. It is not about being perfect every day. It is about paying your dues, listening to your body, and getting back to rhythm. Travel disrupts you. Recovery teaches you where you really are. What is the first thing that breaks in your routine when you travel?

Q: How will I know when it’s the right time to go full-time on a startup idea? Tony Fadell is the co-creator of the iPod, iPhone, and Nest. As he puts it in the clip below: “Great ideas chase you.” He continues: “In this world, there are so many people who have more ideas than they have time to implement… I used to be like that. But the best ideas are the ones that you can really focus on… Now I try to run away from a great idea. And then it stalks me. It hunts you down because you’re like: ‘Ah, that’s going to have this problem, I’m going to put it aside.’ And then a few days later, you’re like: ‘Actually I think I know how to solve that problem.’ At some point it just becomes this black hole that sucks you in and you can’t think about anything else but this.” Mark Zuckerberg gave similar advice in a previous Startup Archive answer: “I always think the most important thing entrepreneurs should do is pick something they care about and work on it, but don’t actually commit to turning it into a company until it’s working. If you look at the data of the very best companies, I think a tremendous percentage of them have been built that way and not from people who decided upfront that they wanted to start a company because you just get locked into a local maxima a lot of the time.” Let great ideas chase you and don’t turn it into a company until it’s working. There’s almost always a ton of work you you can do upfront to de-risk an idea before turning it into a company. And perhaps just as important: you want to make sure you’re still excited about the idea after a few months and the novelty has worn off—it should be all you can think about. Companies are almost always a 10 year project if they work and a 2-3 year project if they fail. It’s worth it to be patient before jumping in with two feet.

From Eric Vishria on how the top AI founders are building products completely opposite of the SaaS era: "One of the things that is really different in the AI world versus the SaaS world, is that in the SaaS world, over and over again, you had people who really understood the customer. And the problem. And then they understood a domain. They understood what the technology was more or less capable of. But it wasn't a real question of if you could build something or not. For example, take Salesforce, Workday, and ServiceNow. CRM existed before Salesforce. HR management existed before Workday. Same thing with ServiceNow. So in every case, Salesforce followed Siebel. Workday followed Peoplesoft. ServiceNow followed Peregrine and Remedy, and others. So they were just kind of, cloud SaaS versions of the prior generation product. They just understood the customers. They understood the problem. And they were just like, here's a better version. And that evolved a little bit over time in SaaS land. But that's what it is. And so product development in that way was done by people who really understood the customer and the problems. And then just took advantage of the next wave. And this is almost diametrically opposite of product development in the AI era. When I look at the teams that are having the most success today, they have intimate knowledge of the models. They are right on the frontier of understanding which models are better at what, and why, and when. And what they're going to be good at and what they're not going to be good at. And what they're spending their time on, is figuring out how do I apply this capability of this model to this domain or to this user. So they're actually working inside out or technology out, versus customer problem in. And of course, they understand the customer problem. And a lot of times they have firsthand knowledge of it. But they're really close to the metal and capability, and they're applying it. And I think this is a really different way to develop products than in SaaS. I started my career as a product manager a long time ago, and it's almost the complete opposite of everything you learned. "Listen to the customer, understand it, then bring it back to the engineering and product teams." If you did that right now, ask a bunch of customers what they want out of AI, and you brought it back, for the most part, it may not be possible today with today's technology. Whereas the teams that are winning right now really understand the technology and are applying it out. And so I think this reversal matters. I think it's a big difference in terms of how companies are getting built. And maybe even the types of entrepreneurs that will be successful. I'm not sure. You're seeing some real change there. Look at the Bret Taylor's at Sierra. That's a super, super technical founder who really gets it. Brett and Clay really get it. You look at Michael and his co-founders at Cursor. They're super technical founders and they get it. They all really understand what these things can and can't do. And that's a pretty different dynamic relative to the way the best SaaS companies got built."

Q: Why are startup ideas worthless? In his essay Ideas for Startups, Paul Graham wrote: “startup ideas are not million dollar ideas, and here's an experiment you can try to prove it: just try to sell one. Nothing evolves faster than markets. The fact that there's no market for startup ideas suggests there's no demand. Which means, in the narrow sense of the word, that startup ideas are worthless.” Steve Jobs expands on this idea further: “There’s a tremendous amount of craftsmanship in between a great idea and a great product” A lot of people think that a really great idea is 90% of the work, but a great product idea will never turn out as originally conceived. You learn a lot from the details of building it and there are always tradeoffs you have to make. In this clip, Jobs tells the story of how a widowed man showed him a rock tumbler when he was little kid. He uses the rock tumbler and process of turning common stones into beautifully polished rocks as a metaphor for a team working really hard on something they're passionate about: "It's through the team--through a group of incredibly talented people--bumping up against each other, having arguments, having fights sometimes, making some noise, and working together... they polish each other and polish the ideas. And what comes out are these really beautiful stones." The key to building a great product is a great team, not a great idea.

I hear so often from the Dommes I work with that they struggle with people online fetichizing them and simply seeing them for how sexy and beautiful they are. They project their fantasies and their desires onto you. That stops immediately once you move the attention from you to them. From 'look at me' to 'I see you'. What does that look like? When you create content, think of them and what this scene or that narrative is evoking. What will they learn from you? What they want is not to passively watch how sexy you are, but for you to train them, to give them instructions, to teach them, to guide them, to be in charge, to command them. This is not being an object but the main subject. The Authority figure. How is your content already doing that. The sexy photos can still be there, they are important to already capture des attention. But what you do with that attention once you have it, is where the power dynamic is established. Positioning yourself as more than a stunning Goddess, but actually a woman who has a voice, opinions, perspective, a philosophy, a way to doing things, teaching them what you like, how you like it, why you like it, already makes them want to be that for you. You hold the attention, you hold the power, so you direct it. And for that, you want them to know you get them and you know what lives within them... that creates the desire for you to be the one exposing it. You instantly build trust. Not because you demanded it, but because you earned it: you showed them you know what you are doing. You have experience, you understand them. They are not told to come see you, they are seduced into it. They desire it. And they will work for it. This will attract better clients (real subs) and instead of you trying to get their attention, they will work to earn yours. If you want to learn more about power dynamics, building a brand as a Pro or the psychology behind BDSM, you can now access all my trainings and classes in one place for a fraction of the cost of The Dominatrix Academy. And you can reinvest the total amount towards the Program. Message me [SECRET] for the details. This offer is not available on my website.

What you're looking at started as something that most people drive past without a second thought. - Industrial - boring - overlooked And someone looked at it and saw something no one else was seeing. That's the whole game here. You don't have to invent something brand new to make serious money. You just have to see potential where everyone else sees limitations. You have to look at what already exists and imagine it just a little differently. So when you turn something familiar into something unexpected, it becomes shareable and memorable. It becomes the thing that people can't stop talking about because it's different in a world where everything feels the same. People will literally travel hours just to stay somewhere like this because different is the experience now. Nobody cares about another cookie cutter hotel room that they've seen a thousand times, but this gets filmed and posted and sent to friends with the caption "you have to see this place" And suddenly you're booked out months in advance because you gave something people can't get anywhere else. I love that the raw materials here aren't special, it's just space that was sitting there unused and cheap to acquire The success of this is found in the willingness to look at what everyone else ignored and ask "what could this become?" Instead of just accepting what currently is. That's where the opportunity is. There are thousands of: - shipping containers rotting in fields - old grain silos sitting empty - warehouses no one's using - barns that haven't been touched in decades And every single one of them could become something people would pay to experience if someone just had the vision to see it through. You don't need to build it from scratch. You just need to reimagine what's already sitting in front of you. Because the world is full of overlooked things waiting for someone to look at them differently. And I don't care if AI generated the video because the inspiration you get from it is still the same.

Shayne Coplan, CEO of Polymarket, on why dogfooding your own product is the single best shortcut to building something people want: Shayne is asked what he thinks it takes for a founder to build a successful company. He starts by dismantling the fantasy he once had as a teenager: "When I was in high school, I was always like, man, I'm going to build this side project. It's going to get traction. People are going to give me money, and then I'm going to drop out. And it's going to be like this perfect clean break where I take no risk. Completely did not happen." Shayne dropped out of college at 18, but what followed was nothing like the smooth ride he'd imagined. "There were almost 3 years of like complete brutality of things not working and me trying things and me learning different things and running out of money, stressed about rent, like the whole 9 yards." That stretch taught him the first non-negotiable for any founder: full commitment. "If you really want to do this, if you really feel like it's your calling, don't half-ass it. Go all in. Don't hedge your bets." Shayne Coplan 🦅 continues: "If you're hedging your bets and you kind of haven't cut the rope and you're like, 'Well, I'm still at this, but I'm trying this on the side, whatever.' That's not how great, durable businesses and products start in this day and age. You got to go all in. You got to give it every ounce you got." But going all in is only half the equation. The other half, and the part Shayne believes is the real shortcut, is being one of your own users: "You have to obsess over your customers and people who are using your product. And just the easiest thing to do to build a product company is to use the product yourself and to talk to your own users all the time and triage between what you learn from your users, what you learn from dogfooding your own product, and your product development cycles." He ends with a dose of humility: "It's all I got. I'm still learning honestly."
