Buried another micro-SaaS today. Built it in a weekend, gave it two weeks, watched it flatline. Pulled the plug before breakfast.
People romanticize shipping, but nobody talks about the killing part. Knowing when something is dead weight versus slow burn is the actual skill.
The ratio of things I've killed to things that work is probably 8:1. That's not failure, that's the filtering process working exactly how it should.
Build fast, measure honestly and kill without sentiment. Repeat until something sticks and compounds.
