agree, with this its a balance. If its been 6+ months since you wanted to hire someone and you haven't you're probably not refining enough

Perfect is the enemy of great. I’ve watched companies spend 3–6 months interviewing 50+ candidates while their competitors ship and win. If you’re optimizing for a flawless candidates, you’re playing the wrong game.

A lot of people look at US-based engineers and immediately think “way too expensive” And yeah, on paper, that’s often true. But something I’ve noticed after working with devs across Europe, LatAm, APAC, and the US — the biggest difference isn’t just salary, it’s mindset. There’s a higher % of US-based engineers who just understand startup. They’re more comfortable with uncertainty. They ask the right questions. They don’t wait around for someone to tell them what to do. You can find people like that anywhere — but for whatever reason, there’s more of them here. And if you’re building something from zero, that mentality goes a long way.

Pro tip: If you want founders to really connect, just add a surprise evacuation to your event

Caught up with @worthalter from /poap and walked away with a new appreciation for what they’re building. I used to think of POAPs as digital stickers. But they’re more like memory anchors, little onchain time capsules.

Reminds me of when 2 of our investors made a bet in 2021 about whether the SF tech scene would lose its dominance. Instead of writing it down, they minted a POAP. The bet: https://collectors.poap.xyz/token/3466717

At an early-stage, the difference between a good hire and a great one often comes down to: Are they willing to argue with you? I mean, the best ones don’t just take direction, they question it. They show up with opinions, ask hard questions, and still drive things forward. It’s not about being combative, but being invested. Blind agreement is comfortable. But it rarely leads to the best outcomes.
