Work ethic: Do you think a 4-day work week will bring efficiency?
... busywork. The move is smashing inefficiencies with smarter tech that helps you work better, not just less. Remote s a start, but it has to be smart working, literally. Comment from D. Ferencha(@d_ferencha): @byalexai  I completely agree, I think six-hour working hours is a much better option. Comment from Borja DR(@borja_diazroig): I haven t tried a 4-day work week myself, but in an ideal scenario, it could boost efficiency: more rest, less burnout ... ... lower costs. I ve seen teams thrive with both remote + 4-day schedules, but the real win comes from rethinking how we work, not just how many days.

✅ POLL: Do you buy the domain first or build the product first?
... domain, not just the primary one, but similar ones too. Brand safety matters, especially when you spot a good deal. Don t risk someone else grabbing it. Comment from Stefan Weiss(@stefan_weiss5): @k_piotr  agreed! especially the email part for early feedback is key. Otherwise people will wonder what you are doing. For prototyping / testing, you will also need a domain imo. Comment from Mike Andrew(@mikeandrew): Start with the end in mind - enjoy finding a domain first ... ... sunny_k_s): I'll first build the product first. Still, some founders grab a domain they like early on and it ends up being the perfect fit later. Comment from Mickey Qiu(@mickeyqiu): @youssef_kacem  Totally agree

Coding with an AI IDE (visual) vs AI CLI (Terminal), what's better?

Why does SEO get all the attention, while paid ad intelligence gets overlooked?
... noticed that in most growth discussions, people tend to focus heavily on SEO optimizing blogs, backlinks, keywords, etc. But very few talk about paid traffic strategies, especially analyzing competitors ad placements, creatives, and media buying patterns. In our experience, paid ad data often gives faster, clearer direction especially when entering a new market or launching a product. Curious to hear from others: Do you analyze competitors

Well, it turns out when you try to make AI a bit too positive and polite, it starts agreeing with everything, even when it shouldn't.
