thanks for sharing, i just got an alert (F5Bot) for my name.

i still stand by what i wrote here 5 years ago, however i’ll add that the Renaissance Man maker can mitigate their analysis paralysis by, say, picking different days of the week for each aspect of their job. so writing code M/W, marketing Tu, support Th/Fr, and so on.

I've been a dev building things and I can resonate with what you say very much. A builder is like someone who has a hammer in his hand with everything around looking like a nail. Esp. if you are a builder who is constantly excited with your own ideas, it's hard to ask who would want that ?

i should have just written this in the post.

distribution is 10 x more important than production.

this should now be a well known rule of thumb in a free(ish) market economy under conditions of imperfect information. You need to build a distribution channel either before or in parallel with building 'the thing'
