3 weeks into a16z speedrun and it’s not at all what I expected.
I thought there would be a lot more “accelerator stuff.” sessions, frameworks, advice, etc.
instead, most of the time we’re just building. very fast 😂
I think the biggest surprise for me is the other founders. Someone is almost always a few steps ahead on a problem you’re trying to solve, has tried the thing you’re about to try, or knows someone you should talk to.
and the speedrun team is much more hands-on than I expected too. sometimes you don’t need advice, you just need the right intro or someone to tell you “yeah, this makes no sense” before you waste 2 weeks on it.
only 3 weeks in though. ask me again in October 😂
