Failed in Public - Day 4: The Punch. I was supposed to be sharing my launch link today. Instead, I'm sharing this. A few hours ago, a critical, show-stopper bug appeared out of nowhere. The core of my app just... broke. My first instinct was to panic. My second was to give up and delay the launch indefinitely. But that's not what this 'Failed in Public' journey is about. It's not about avoiding punches; it's about learning to take them and get back up. So, the launch is on hold. Not cancelled. On hold. Today is not about marketing. Today is about engineering. Today is about a solo founder going to war against a single, ugly, miserable bug. I don't know if it will take a day or a week to fix. But I will fix it. And then, we will launch. The fight is on.

Me: I’ll fix that bug in 5 minutes. Also me, 6 hours later: I’ve rewritten half the app, questioned my life choices, and the bug is now a feature. #DeveloperHumor #CodingLife #SendHelp

Failed in Public - Day 5: Back from the Dead. On Thursday, I was at my lowest. A critical bug appeared just hours before my big launch, and I had to make the painful decision to postpone everything. It felt like a knockout punch. But the community (e

Freshworks announced a layoff. Stock up 30%. This is a feature of capitalism. Not a bug.

We pursue entrepreneurship not for wealth or power, but to fix what we know is missing. Until it’s solved, we can’t let go—and if it remains unfixed, we hold ourselves accountable.

The Crazzy Grind - Day 2: From 'Launch' to 'Listen'. The launch-day adrenaline is gone. Today was about the real, quiet work that nobody sees. My only goal today was to talk to my first users. I sent out 30 personal emails, not as a founder, but as a
