Heading to Minneapolis for my first political conference - who’s in town??
“Hey Stripe, make me some money”.
Stripe rolling out their own AI - fraud detection cost way too much so this is a great development.

What was your favorite part of Farcon, if you could attend?
A few of my highlights...
1. An excellent conference organized by @esteez.eth and countless others
2. Catching up with the tireless @nounishprof + @adrienne for all their extra programming, context, and more
3. Great chat between @dwr.eth + @fredwilson.eth - especially the stroll down memory lane of internet history and how everything repeats
4. Late night drinks with @arek @matthewfox and the crew post karaoke
5. Seeing so many of the folks I've been lucky enough to meet before and for the first time IRL
6. Fartlet confirmed by @v
Can't wait for next year's!

Came across this quote the other day and reminded me of how much I love being a founder.
Founders have to constantly build, but when we're not we feel like we're wasting time. Of course, that's not remotely true but it's an undeniable feeling (at least for me).
When building, there's an inevitable happiness I can say I feel in seeing something come to life - even before anyone's ever used it or had a chance to shit all over it.
When "burning", I try to imagine how it will make me a better builder. Talking to customers, resetting a product, scrapping a codebase, or just taking time away from work and spending it with family and friends pay much, much bigger dividends.
Anyone else feel this way or am I just a weirdo, lol.

Saw these posted couple weeks back, pretty good but I find sometimes asking explicitly for a potential style it gets copyright blocked.. but using "like" or "style" sometimes evades it

NfX has an "Upgraded GTM Playbook". Should sound familiar to everyone here:

1. Build in Public
2. Community-Centric Growth
3. Self-Service Viral Products
4. Prosumer-Targeted Products
5. Open-Source Foundation
6. Influencer Marketing
Much of what's cited here concerns how AI is transforming business models and approaches to markets.

o3 is coming today, anyone expecting much here?
The releases always feel a little disappointing - though I was happy to see 4.1 and the images release of late.
