In the beginning of a company, there is no management and this actually works really well.

You need this sort of a tailwind to make a startup successful.

Here's a good rule of thumb: don't worry about a competitor at all, until they're actually beating you with a real shipped product.

People that are really smart and that can learn new things can almost always find a role in the company as time goes on.

In the early stage of a startup, hiring senior people is usually a mistake. You just want people that get stuff done.

One thing I tell startups all the time is that the best way to grow is to make their product better.

What being a founder means, is signing up for this years long grind on execution - and you can't outsource this.
