What are your top 3 dream companies to work for right now?

If you had to leave your current job and could work at any company, in any role, what would be your top 3 dream companies?

Here are my picks:

  1. Anthropic - Arguably the most important company in history, and trying to build AI responsibly

  2. Cursor - Some of the smartest engineers working across incredibly difficult technical and design problems

  3. Linear - Super product-focused and seems like some of the highest density of talent ever

How do you decide which customer feedback actually becomes a roadmap item?

Every team I talk to has more feature requests than they can act on, and most of it doesn't come with clean data attached, just a support ticket or a Slack message from a customer. For those running product teams here, what's your actual process for turning scattered feedback into a prioritized roadmap? Curious whether people are doing this manually in spreadsheets, using a dedicated PM tool, or something else entirely.

What I learned launching with zero audience

I launched my first product here cold, with no audience and no pre-launch community.

It got real feedback, which I'm grateful for. But once launch day ended, traffic dropped to almost nothing, even though I've kept posting consistently.

My takeaway: solving a problem gets people to try your product, but it doesn't bring them to you. That part is distribution, and I skipped it.

For makers who've launched a second time: what did you do differently before relaunching?

What are the unconventioanl ways you use AI?

I assume that, like most founders and makers, we try to make our work as productive as possible with the help of AI.

So, most commonly, that means creating graphics, writing, coding, and so on.

How (not) to gather first users when you are an unknown brand. May be helpful to new product makers

From testing new products, I've come to several conclusions and possibly also identified mistakes that product creators make when launching them.

Whenever you want to attract your first testers (especially those who are well-known), try first to build up your credibility.

Which cities (in your country) are tech hubs and offer many job or business opportunities?

I remember reading an essay by @rrhoover about how he moved from his native Oregon to San Francisco after university studies, where doors full of networking opportunities opened up for him.

I saw the same thing in my country after graduation. About 80% of my classmates went to the capital, where there are the most opportunities in marketing and tech. (Or they went abroad.)
