Building something unique in a competitive space is hard. After 18mo of building in stealth, we’re excited to share Lumos, the AppStore for companies. Here are 3 principles that let us build something new in a crowded space raise over $30M from @a16z @neo @lachygroom 👇

Your website should build itself. It should adapt to your visitors and competition in real time. Introducing Flint: autonomous websites. We’re already powering pages for @Cognition and @Modal. Today we announce our $5M seed from @Accel and break out of stealth. More below.

We're hiring a content creative to help us prepare the world for humanoid robots in homes. @radbackwards is to viral marketing as what AlphaGo was to Go - working with him has been a truly eye opening experience. Drop what you are doing and apply - this will be the most fun job ever. Unimagineable glory awaits

I'm hiring a Video Producer to help tell stories that will accelerate building a future full of humanoid robots (NEO). Specifically I need someone who can do everything from come up with incredible content for all platforms, shoot/create beautiful videos, produce and direct movies with me. You will get to witness and document the furthest frontiers of technological innovation & even better you get to work closely w/ me :) No degrees or fancy resume required. Just incredible talent. Link below. DM me if interested and reply if you can't DM.

Designs specifically aimed at being unique or ‘not like the rest’ are doomed from the start as comparison has no place in creation

We’ve been using Devin for a few months @lumosidentity and quite impressed with the results, even in a complex dev environment. Key learnings: - Build up “knowledge” snippets like crazy. Don’t expect it to know how to do things you haven’t told it how to do - Bias towards very specific prompts. Spending 15 min on a prompt can save hours of dev work. Think about what context you’d put in a ticket for a junior engineer - Don’t try to get it to “one shot” the work. Prefer tasks where you’d be ok going in after and cleaning some stuff up

I hope everyone has the opportunity to work in an environment characterized by open and affectionate camaraderie. It's a wonderful thing, good for the soul.

most people will stray away from, or complain about, things that are hard it’s better to recognize that the problem you’re trying to solve is inherently hard, and others who have tried to solve the same problem have probably quit or made compromises as a result. which means, if you keep going, you’ll likely be one of the first to do so, creating immense value for others in the process just be mindful of “artificial” hardness, such as internal politics, redoing the work or research of others, or executing on a poor design decision or strategy this will suck the lifeblood out of you and not generate enough value to make it worth it

in startups, when faced with the choice between an easy and a hard path, the hard one tends to be where the value gets created
