shipping lesson from selling dog beds across the EU: read the courier packing rules before the first parcel, not after. i taped two boxes together into one parcel to Lithuania. DPD counts that as an atypical parcel, so 453 Kc shipping came with a 990 Kc extra fee.

Elon made everyone start making EVs now they will have to start making flying cars. Good luck with that.

Marc is a living proof distribution is EVERYTHING, at this point WHATEVER he ships will bring money. There is so much we all can learn from him.

My new startup is profitable from day 1 🥳🎉 I have no investors to please, so I won't raise prices every few months. → trustmrr.com/startup/mailche…

My best career advice: At every job you should either learn or earn. Either is fine. Both is best. But if it's neither, quit.

Juggling 10 AI agents isn't leverage. It's just a new way to be the bottleneck.

90% of founders on here have never sold anything to a stranger. Including me until last year.

I run Pawloor, a small Czech dog-bed brand. This week I designed our first bed with bolsters and Opus 5.5 did the geometry with me. Here's what we built 🧵

And a layer-by-layer animation of our flagship bed: memory foam on HR foam, an inner cover with hollow-fibre tunnels, the top cover. The bolster version has no fibre under the sides, so they sit firm.

It caught things I'd have missed: the left and right arms are mirror images, not two copies of one part. Last step: a one-page drawing in Czech for our foam supplier. Samples next.

Lifting past 40 isn't about the program. It's about sleep.

Designing Pawloor's first dog bed with bolsters, with Cursor and Opus 5.5 as my CAD assistant. From a few phone photos of foam prototypes to exact 45° cut lengths for every size, a 3D model I can add or remove parts on a layer animation of the bed and a drawing for our foam supplier.
