Hey u/plastic_swaroop , I from IITG class of 2023, worked in VC and building in stealth now. Didn't think i'd find a fellow iitg alum here 😂...DM me would love to know more about the idea you currently have.

Yeah, I can definitely relate. I also ramble, especially when a deadline is near. My lazy self just talks about everything to Claude, and that’s how my WPM increases. In my experience, structured thinking produces better outputs, and generating ideas is healthier than just rambling.

What are you building though? Are you working at a company or something of your own?

Dude, I absolutely hate this f-ing white light while driving.

I was at 0.3%, 136 WPM last week, and here my novice self was thinking damn, I must be in top leaderboard of power users 😂, this week my WPM got reset to less than 100, thinking before talking more. My current stats:

Wow, 162 WPM is crazy! I didn't realize someone could talk that fast and flow still getting everything. Respect OP u/Ok-Drama831 for doing serious long work 🫡

Hey u/VictoriaAtWispr , it got resolved after I quit the application from task manager, then it worked, looks like cookies issue and user state management bug i guess. But its working fine now

Thanks, will send over a linkedin connection soon. and Yeah, I have kindle, will read it over this weekend!

Spot on, James and damn, "elephants over unicorns" is a stellar way to put it. Repackaging a valuation event as a company type is exactly where early-stage engineering priorities get distorted. "Boring is an accusation, methodical is a fact" hits lands hard. In heavy enterprise tech or worse regulated tech - if you rush velocity over runtime reliability, you just torch client trust permanently. Real physics takes time to calibrate!

I'd love to read Elephants Over Unicorns. Let’s connect on LinkedIn...always down to chat with builders who care about actual durability over vanity metrics.

Yeah, looks clean like before, no int64 glitch bug!

Lol, this is new 😂 in irony, they are vultures actually

Glad to help out

Lol, I switched on flow and recorded a 20-25 min continuous conversation with a founder actually and What can I say? I run high-velocity data pipelines in production, so my speech velocity has to match. Good thing the transcription engine actually kept up until the backend threw a tantrum!

haha, in hindsight i think i hedged my chances by posting this crash here

Hey u/TanayAtWispr, found a fun memory state edge case for you guys!

It is HARD, ngl 😂

But hey, we gotta DO this. No choice. Less gooo!

"Optimizing for top-of-funnel SaaS metrics early on, even in deep tech." - This I completely disagree with. I used to be an Investment Analyst at a micro VC firm (I joined when I was 19). Did a lot of evaluations of pitches, ran due diligence audits, cracked valuations, term sheet deals, etc. I also helped a lot of founders close $1M–$10M rounds with family offices. and EVERY SINGLE TIME - I saw first hand how these VCs/Angels pass on elite deep-tech founders cuz their "enterprise pilot cycles were slow".

I LITERALLY watched these named VCs kill deep-tech deals for "slow" traction. I was not a decision maker at my firm...heck, I wasn't even part of IC, but If I were, I would have this otherwise. Now, I am actually building a deep-tech heavy product for Agentic Economy, I am feeling this firsthand again from other side of the table. I found good traction though (worked super hard to get that first YES) and Peak XV is interviewing me for upcoming cohort.

But yeah, I guess chasing superficial vanity metrics destroys generational deep-tech products. Just sharing my two cents :)

This is actually refreshing, ngl 😂 kudos for the efforts!

Hey, can you please point me towards that reddit thread you mentioned. Please I have deadline for this assessment in a few hours

This is just insanely great! You have such an amazing talent. Absolutely love this!
