I really appreciate how consistently thoughtful Karri has been in posting. It shows in linear.

In grindmaxxing there are a couple of questions inside it. First question is that whether you should do it or not, and to what level. I don’t think there is one right answer because it is situational and plays into the dynamics of the market. Most startups the mode is either

Opus 4.8 is a very strange model. Clearly Anthropic tried to improve honesty, which is commendable. However, the model's curiosity (already worse in 4.7) degraded further. Result is a judgmental personality + sycophancy + sooo much hedging. Basically the opposite of Opus 3.

Gone through exact same pattern at Nia. Usually we use something off the shelf to ship fast, run into annoying problems, "k I'll make it myself" Only time we've been burnt bad is when we were convinced of the need to build in-house before the 'hack it together and get signal' phase Different scales and industry ofc, but same pattern! Almost have to "earn the right" to diy

This is brilliant. 'I write a paragraph about why I should take a meeting.' If you should take the meeting it's easy to do, but if you start writing and you're like “I don’t want to do this,” then the meeting is a waste of time. "For the things that I think are really

@scottastevenson I struggle with this one as an amateur builder. Assuming ypu don't have taste, the best thing you can do is ship more and observe. Which means you need to ship faster if you can sustainably do so. What am I missing?

Many people just give up when their context window gets overwhelmed. If you can handle large amounts of information coming at you from many directions, it’s actually very rare to be able to deal with that well. You need to wire your brain to do one of two things: 1. Compress context to fit in your window constantly (lossless) 2. Filter and use lossy compression constantly, enabling you to discard a lot of information These are skills that impact the core of how you think and process information. They can be learned but it takes a lot of practice.

This advice is generally right, but for any individual founder the timing of a launch depends on their market: its maturity, dynamics, risk tolerance, and frankly, noise. Today it’s easy to make a professional-looking MVP quickly with AI. That also means people have less time, interest or patience for trying 100 different half-formed products. You need to launch with a point of view. Something that resonates. Then build enough product to prove that point. Where that bar is depends entirely on the company and category. When it’s the last time you’re seen Snap type company being crated? Snap was founded in 2011 when mobile was really taking off. I’d wager most of consumer apps are form that era and we actually hav seen very many attempts but very few breakthroughs.
