Lol, enough friction to prevent overcrowding but not a string of difficult obstacles that will lead to your failure.

Lol, the stuff he says is not crazy. Some aspects are debatable (e.g. move to a tech hub to succeed or the most important trait in early stage investing) but it's fairly good.

I've summarised the points I found generally useful.

richardawoyemi··on How No Code Impacts Lean Methodology
Thanks for this! To be clear, I said that "I probably wouldn't code".

1. This is a personal preference because of the benefits. 2. I also think the expansiveness of no-code tools now has expanded drastically (e.g. check out the type of platforms and marketplaces being recreated via platforms like Bubble). 3. I said "probably" because I think the need for bespoke code will increasingly decline - at least for earlier iterations. However, there are clear exceptions.

Overall, I think we agree but I'm probably more optimistic over the long term prospects lol.
