- make sure every engineer has the ability to ship code to production. - ship code every day to production, hopefully multiple times a day. - demo features to someone every week. we do every friday demo's to the company of what we built that week.

- Continuous deployment: every push to main should be released (make sure to have proper testing and feature flagging in place to accomplish that) - Single piece flow. It's tempting but trying to do several things in parallel in a small team kills efficiency - Pair programming first (at least for complex tasks): don't require a third person to review (pair programming should contain the review already). Then it's the fastest way to ship.

1. Start validating without development to test copy and value prop (landing page and outreach) 2. Focus 1 core feature and set the strict deadline to build MVP (1 month is ideal) 3. Ask your product team to show demos regularly, at least once a week PS I have a video based on my viral post on Reddit r/startups that goes over these questions in details. Would love to hear your thoughts!
