Why Coworking Spaces in Sector 62 Are the Best Bet for Bootstrapped Startups
For any entrepreneur, starting a business is a thrilling yet challenging journey. But for bootstrapped startups — those operating without external funding — every rupee counts. Choosing the right workspace becomes one of the most crucial decisions in the early stages of building a business. The right environment can either boost creativity and productivity or drain financial resources before the company even takes off.

Kind of an odd side tangent to argue whether socialism is more white or Christian I guess. I'm just stuck thinking about it though.
I would argue that the utopian socialism predating Marxian socialism is ultimately rooted in feudal criticism of the emerging white capitalism.

Registering my home lab so I can grow my mutant plants for sale later next year! It's so nice working with non-gm plants since you can just go to market immediately. Gonna try to make some revenue to fund the harder projects I have baking.

Elon really wants you to believe he bootstrapped himself to where he is.
He’s just the poor son of an emerald magnate, given millions only to be booted from everywhere he ACTUALLY had to do any work because it was so mind-blowingly shitty.
Without gov $$ he’s broke.

Take money off the table. Whether its a tender offer in a startup or your own bootstrapped company with profit. It's good to get a cushion and you don't have to be perfect. Totally agree.

What are brand/software names that are riffs on prior brands/softwares, and became more known/prolific than their predecessors?
