    421: Why You Should Never Start a Software Business

    The brutal truth about SaaS nobody tells you. Here’s the thing: I’m about to share all the reasons why you should never, ever start a software business.  And yes, I’m fully aware that I’m talking to an audience of software founders. This is somewhat sarcastic, somewhat ironic twist on the great things about entrepreneurship. And the problems you'll face.

    420: AI for the Code-Writing Purist: How to Use AI Without Surrendering Your Keyboard

    I know you're out there. The developer who watches their colleagues enthusiastically embrace Claude Code and Cursor, having AI write entire feature sets while you proudly type every semicolon by hand. The founder who sees AI-generated code as a ticking time bomb of bugs and security vulnerabilities. The software entrepreneur who believes that real code comes from human minds, not language models.

    419: The Missing Piece in Your Validation Strategy

    A lot of early-stage founders have understood—mostly because more and more people are talking about their early-stage strategies—that you need to validate your ideas. You need to make an effort to figure out if the thing you're planning to do is actually reasonable to attempt. Validation is important and absolutely worth doing prior to building. That much, many people have understood. But here's where things get interesting. Often enough, validation looks like checking if people have the problem—checking if people have the challenge that your idea solves. And if you find people complaining about it, if you find people mentioning that they struggle with this, to some founders, that's a sufficient reason to build a software-as-a-service solution. Then they bring it to market and realize something frustrating: even if they directly engage people in their market, even if they directly show this and onboard people into the product, they still don't get a sale. People stick with what they're currently doing, even though it is something that, from your perspective as a founder, is much worse, much more expensive, much more complicated, much less scalable. Why is that?

    418: Why AI-Generated Code Hurts Your Exit

    We're living through a fascinating moment in software development. AI coding tools can build features faster than ever before. They can scan entire codebases, spot things we might miss, and implement changes across dozens of files in seconds. It's incredible. But there's something we need to talk about. Something that's quietly accumulating in our projects while we marvel at how quickly we can ship features. This is called comprehension debt.

    417: The Best Tech Stack in the Age of AI

    A couple of years ago, I tweeted that “the best tech stack is the one you already know.” To this day, this is one of my most resonating tweets.
