Bootstrapper and investor. Founder of TinySeed and MicroConf, host of the Startups for the Rest of Us podcast, and author of several books on self-funded software startups.
One of the biggest copes I hear from solo technical founders: “I don’t need to validate it. I’m building it for myself, so even if nobody else uses it, it’s still a success.” No. If you want to build something for yourself, great. That’s a project. If you want to build a product, you should do the work: talk to customers, validate demand, think about positioning and marketing, and work to build something people will actually pay for. You don’t get to skip all the hard, boring, uncomfortable parts of building a business and then redefine success as “well, I use it.” Build for yourself or build… startups Related

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
