We ve worked in two other eco-systems (India & France), and each has clear strengths and trade-offs in terms of talent density, cost of building, access to capital, speed of decision-making, and openness to risk all vary a lot.

Curious to hear from founders and operators who ve built outside the US:

• Which ecosystem punches the most above its weight today?

• Where do you see the best balance between talent, capital, and customer access?

• Are there cities/countries that are especially strong for specific stages (0 1 vs scaling) or specific verticals (AI, fintech, climate, SaaS, deep tech)?

I m convinced the best marketing is just focusing on your users.

Learning from them, and then optimizing the hell out of it, to keep them happy.

This weekend, I went through reviews for @Pretty Prompt, and a few of them made me smile :)

Looks fine to me is one of the most expensive phrases in engineering.

Not because it s careless,
but because it s often said when someone doesn t have time to dig deeper.

Most review shortcuts come from time pressure, not lack of skill.

PRFlow exists to reduce the number of times a reviewer has to rely on gut feel instead of evidence.
