Would you lie about your company's performance just to get better opportunities?

I think we all lie every day (even when we say "Good night" to someone, and we don't even have to mean it sincerely).

We also lie on our resumes, we don't fully disclose everything on our tax returns, and we sometimes fake income.

How do you decide which features to add to your product? [building & improvements]

Early-stage founders often try to improve their product as much as possible and tend to take almost any feedback into account.

Sometimes they end up adding every feature users (even non-paying ones) ask for, even when those features are unnecessary. The product then becomes more complicated and harder to use.

And I m not even talking about the stage when the product is already established. At that point, there are more users, and their expectations start to differ.

What are you building, and what does your stack look like?

I am a Computer Science student doing research into how solopreneurs and small startups create new apps and what their stack looks like. Particularly, I'm interested in how you handle things like authentication, billing, and permissions/authorization in your apps.

Let me know what you're working on below and how you're going about it -- I'd love to connect for some quick calls to learn about your product and talk about your process in building it!

What's the best AI model for coding?

New AI models pop up every week. Some developer tools like @Cursor, @Zed, and @Kilo Code let you choose between different models, while more opinionated products like @Amp and @Tonkotsu default to 1 model.

Curious what the community recommends for coding tasks? Any preferences?
