True story Rise and grind
Maurits says he always thought he was a hard worker until he joined fomo and realized that no matter how early he gets to the office or how late he leaves, half the team is still there working. Maurits: “I always thought I was a hard worker, and I really put in long shifts. But I like to arrive at the office a little bit later, and I’ll leave at like 8 or 9 p.m., and half the team is still there. Right now the office is too small, so you have people sitting on the ground with their laptops. The environment is electric. Everyone is working hard, everyone is super competent, and it’s very founder-led. Even the founders are sitting right next to the rest of the team. They don’t have their own corner suite or anything. The energy is very much unmatched.”

Can anyone also tell me why it’s the slowest app in existence? Each page takes like 2-3 seconds to load
I wish I owned Goodreads. It has SO MUCH potential. Yet, sucks in so many basic ways. Has the hardest part: tons of great reviews and a good community. Everything else...horrible. Search, list making, claude integration, so many more.

It’s not about the launch, it’s about how you iterate Stay lean
Se Yong admits @fomo 's launch day was so dead that 8 of the 10 traders were @fomo employees "It was so anticlimactic that, you know, I just don't remember the day at all." "Nobody joined. It was this very slow thing where we had 10 traders and maybe eight of them were FOMO employees." "Something is telling the market that the product is not good enough. So how do you get it to be good enough? And we just obsessively focus on making the product better time and time again."

We've come a long way from the proof of concept I came up with a year ago. Thankfully we have much better frontend engineers than me at fomo

Elizabeth Holmes inviting Nathan Fielder to live in her house 34 days before going to federal prison is the most insane psychological standoff in modern history She spent a decade faking a deep voice and wearing black turtlenecks to scam Silicon Valley out of $900 million. Then she invited the ONE guy whose entire career is dedicated to catching people acting fake on camera to document her life. She tricked Henry Kissinger and Walgreens, but thought she could out-smart the creator of The Rehearsal.
