Hey @jasonlk thanks for the shout out on 20Vc... ‘"Everyone wants to be a seed investor now, it's not just the Chainsmokers"’

Introducing the sonic collaboration you've been waiting for. "Beep Boop", by @TheChainsmokers (ft. Droid) Droids now notify you with sound when they have completed their task.

I spent $1.5M building our office after raising a seed round. My co-founder thought I was crazy. Here's what changed his mind... 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐱𝐭: After our seed round, I looked at our team. Mostly immigrants. Working 6-day weeks. Building something incredibly hard. The office wasn't just where they worked. It was becoming their home. So I made a bet, what if we actually designed for that? The requirements I gave our real estate agent: - Shower (for ocean swims between meetings) - as close to the beach as possible, ability to quickly go surfing/kiting etc. - Big enough kitchen for a chef - Room for an actual sauna People thought I was building a vacation house, I thought: I am building a place worth the sacrifice. 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞'𝐬 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐈 𝐦𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤: - Found one of SF's best real estate lawyers. Negotiated hard. - Negotiated Tenant Improvements + First year for free - Effective cost: $250k (not $1.5M) Then I was extremely prescriptive with design and construction. No endless back-and-forth. I drew what I wanted. Told them to build it. Cut iteration time by 80%. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐞 𝐛𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐭: - Nordic vibes (keeping our European souls) - Industrial kitchen - Sauna room (yes, like our product: sauna.ai) - Ocean access - Space that feels like home Conclusions: - This "expensive" decision already paid for itself. - In SF, recruiters charge $100k per engineer. We've closed multiple hires -because candidates walked in and said: "I want to work here." But the real ROI isn't only financial. It's this: - We do Friday AMA as a BBQs on the beach. - People actually use the surfboards. - The team's lifestyle supports the intensity of the work. EVERYONE WANTS IN, doesnt matter if events, hiring or using the space as coworking (@bertie_ai and I open it up for our portfolio companies) My co-founder's response after 3 months: "You were right." Some founders optimize for low burn rate. I optimize for: Can great people sustain this pace for years? Because great companies aren't built in one sprint. They're built by people who can go the distance. We're hiring: wordware.ai/careers (Comment if you want intros to our real estate agent, lawyers or construction team - happy to connect)

gonna ask how to refactor everything into rust (then rewrite to golang until i get removed from the repo)

"I don't use @cursor_ai anymore. I haven't opened it in months." @DannyAziz97 rebuilt @TrySpiral running 70% of his work in @FactoryAI’s Droid CLI instead. His approach: Use GPT-5 Codex for big builds, then switch to @AnthropicAI models to nail down details and catch second-order consequences before they become problems. His full AI workflow: x.every.to/47LY2v5

having a gf is insane because it's literally an ai agent with feelings

Thank you, @FactoryAI pleasure 🤝

Try @FactoryAI, way better

Managing a context window in the age of ai seems like we are going backwards. I love the Cursor 2.0 plan experience, but the execution with Sonnet 4.5 (Max) gets exhausting. I have to constantly create new chats at various phases of my plan and reload the context for my next task. I easily planned, built, debugged, and shipped features in a single 7M token session with Factory’s Droid. In Cursor, I constantly have to remind the agent to follow the AGENTS md files or tell it about cursor rules. It’s really annoying and it’s a big reason why a lot of my context window gets nuked due to having the extra cycle of outputting code that didn’t follow the guidelines. (I will attach my prompt to generate these files for Claude or any platform in the next post. The instructions are focused on token efficiency and JIT references as the agent is crawling through folders) I stay more in flow with Droid. One chat session and I don’t need to worry about purging context or creating new chats for different phases of implementing my app. This agent harness/scaffold actually brings out the best of Sonnet 4.5 and I can see how the claim for best coding agent in the world could live up to the hype. I’m planning to go live today and compare the two. Stop by and hang out. I love both platforms and I truly love using these agents to ship software. What has been your experience?
