I’ve spent most of my career as a quiet, behind-the-scenes operator, so sharing this feels particularly vulnerable. But here we go...

I will be AFK and probably crying in front of the TV on May 4, 2027. Who wants to join me for a watch party?
From behind the scenes to 50 years on-screen, witness the beginnings of Star Wars in a brand new documentary directed by R.J. Cutler featuring archival footage and audio captured during the making of the historic film.
The Hero Awakens debuts May 4, 2027, only on @DisneyPlus.

It’s Product Hunt’s 13th bday.
Today, it’s used by more makers and founders than ever before.
• 3x as many makers are launching as a year ago
• ~25% of all unicorn founders are on the site
• $1B+ startups in this AI era launched early on PH, including Cursor, Lovable, ro1, & many others
But tbh, it delights me more to see high-agency young builders use it to introduce their first product to the world.
Now kids younger than Product Hunt launch on Product Hunt.
From the beginning, I wanted it to be a welcoming place for people to be a little vulnerable and inspire others to build.
Appreciate @rajivayyangar and team for all the hard work to maintain that. And shoutout to @jakecrump for pulling this data. :)

Entering a new industry and building new skills after 15+ years working in my “zone of genius” has been humbling.
On being a beginner again, the discomfort of starting over, and a couple of suspiciously timely reminders.

Theory: Asian founders succeed because they’ve been taking VC questions from their parents for years.
“What’s your revenue model?” = how will you pay the bills
“What’s your moat?” = doesn’t this already exist
“Why you?” = why can’t you just get a job

My current form of exposure therapy: creating content, posting said content, and broadcasting how much I hate watching it back.

I wrote this yesterday while flying to and from Georgia to visit my R&D team.
After working in software for so long, seeing a physical product come to life feels uniquely satisfying (and... delicious 😋).

I didn't see Jensen pull his phone out once in this video, and he runs a $5.5T company.
Focus + presence, or an elite agent stack? Spill the tea, Mr. Huang.

I've been traveling the world a bit. One of the most incredible experiences was getting to visit Taiwan w/ @JensenHuang. It was wild 🤯.. huge crowds of engineers, insanely good street food at night markets, and of course a lot of good conversations across many days. I caught e below. Alright, that's it from me, love you all ❤️

Thank you all for the love after my announcement a few weeks ago. I’m happy to report that a lot has happened since then, and some of it was even on my to-do list 😅
