done some things
It's only natural that the rise of authoritarianism spawned a resurgence in tech-bro hustle culture. These two ideologies are virtually identical & equally harmful. Vibe coding 😆

Next time a tech-bro shames you for 9-5 hours, ask if they're willing to offer 10% equity + cash comp for your hustle 💅😎

You know how people called women hysterical for predicting the right wing would take down Roe v. Wade (which they've done) and then attack access to birth control (which they're doing)?

Hear me when I say that women's very right to vote is next.

Most people are narcissistic in one way or another, and will usually invalidate your feelings if your feedback makes them the least bit uncomfortable.

Imagine how fast they’ll invalidate you when the hero they’ve been defending for years suddenly does a Na$I salute twice on live television.

Its true. We are about a month away from relaunching our acquiring company’s product with light social tools (Post comments). Within 90-120 days it will shift hard into many of the community features you loved about Post News. Follow me on Instagram (noelbaron) or Facebook (noelbaroncom) for updates
Same same same. @noelbaron.bsky.social is currently cooking something up... a new platform. A merger of #PostNews and something else. 👀

Today we’re discussing over-hiring. Relevant for #startup #founders and the #recruiters who support them. open.substack.com/pub/noelbaro...

Over-hiring is common, but in most cases unnecessary.

In early-stage startups, experience and expertise almost always provide better decision-making insights than raw data.

Don’t make the mistake of becoming a data-driven company too soon.

Intuition vs data-driven product flow
Because you needed more gray areas in your startup life.

It’s a delicate dance for sure. It’s also the reason why Google and other large orgs operate from extremely defensive positions. At a certain point, everything’s a threat. 👋🏻

Hi Noel. Ex-postie here. I'm an indy software developer who has gigged for a few startups -- never a successful one BTW. Your post highlights the challenges facing startups from the POV of tech, investor confidence, branding, etc.. Few people recognize how many things have to go right. All the best!

Your pitch deck is trash
Sorry for being toxic, but it probably needs work.
