“You must never confuse faith that you will prevail in the end—which you can never afford to lose—with the discipline to confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be.” — Admiral James Stockdale.
Marrying you was the best decision ❤️
Love you to the moon and back, my love, @Aizada ❤️
"As a founder, you cannot turn off. And I'm just so glad Chyngyz is a founder as well."
@Aizada, Founder and CEO of @AlmaImmigration, on what it's like to be married to a fellow founder.
The conventional advice is to protect your personal life from the startup. Aizada and her husband and fellow Villager, @cdzhuman, built something different, a partnership where the startup is part of the life.

I hired an ex McKinsey consultant to compile all my sales materials to document how GrowthAssistant company reached $22M in ARR.
He collected:
- Recordings of sales calls
- Sales scripts
- SOPs
- Lead gen systems
- etc
100s of top companies paid me for access to it.
Today I'll give it away for free.

Get that wrong, and your agents won’t just burn out, they’ll be irrelevant.
I really loved this conversation! Tune into Founders & Empanadas wherever you get your podcasts for the full episode.

Kodif’s founder doesn’t think that way anymore. Everything is a test, a shot, forward motion.
He came from a tiny village in Kyrgyzstan.
Now he’s building AI agents for billion-dollar brands in Silicon Valley.
He’s not here to protect his ego.
He’s here to win the 2%.

My favorite part about Stanford is finding random classes that end up having insane speaker lineups

Kafka streaming at scale doesn't have to break the bank! 🚀
Benchmark results show Ursa runs at just $54/hour—95% lower cost than Redpanda ($988/hour) and MSK ($303/hour) is 5.6x more expensive than Ursa.
💰 No inter-zone replication & lakehouse-native storage = lower costs, higher performance.
📉 TCO up to 86% lower than other Kafka vendors!

I’m at Stanford and I research software engineering productivity.
We have data on the performance of >50k engineers from 100s of companies.
Inspired by @deedydas, our research shows:
~9.5% of software engineers do virtually nothing: Ghost Engineers (0.1x-ers)

Looking back and connecting the dots, I’m thankful that the immigration firm I hired messed up my application!
If they would’ve been successful at helping me, I wouldn’t have built @AlmaImmigration!
As a founder, there’s something special about building a company that could’ve solved a problem for yourself in the past.
To everyone searching for a business idea, I recommend thinking about problems you’ve encountered recently.
Can you solve it for others through a streamlined process? If so, go for it.
