" doesn't scale" is one of the dumbest things you can say to any new idea. Everything scales. If there are users using it, humans will find ways to scale it.

Scaling issues are always the best problems to have.

Now, if no one uses your thing though.. then it really won't scale. But not because it can't.

scaling issues just means that innovation needs to happen. this is what gets devs dick's hard. they have problems to solve. devs love problems. 🤣

That's why devs like printer software

just like a mountain & a climber

there’s a great concept of extreme pmf introduced by todd jackson.

when you have satisfaction, the growth engine is within reach, but it still needs a good efficiency model. maybe it’s a bit diff with foss, as time is less of a factor than when you’re backed by venture capital, but it still matters.

thanks for the post, we definitely need more product-oriented conversations!

Those "humans* that's other people though, not you is it?

and that's why i'ma try to implement something down the line where people had that reason for it.

“Do things that don’t scale” actually is a good piece of traditional Silicon Valley startup advice k think we should consider more. Nothing is perfect to start. You need to get it out there, see if folks are interested, and iterate based on customer feedback. You have to start somewhere, and can’t wait forever for it to be “perfect”.

So very true

The globalist bankers started the phrase "Bitcoin doesn't scale" because they were trying to destroy Bitcoin. The phrase didn't work so they built their own Bitcoin called "Bitcoin cash" which ended up being Bitcoin trash. It still didn't destroy Bitcoin. They tried building and promoting many shit coins to destroy Bitcoin. They keep trying so much and it's not working.

When the car engine was first invented the horse and cart owners used that phrase. "The stinky metal" would not scale. They said the stinky metal would have to get bigger and bigger in order to pull more and more people.

The smart people said instead of making the engine bigger and bigger. We would build around it and on top of it.

Bitcoin is the same. Bitcoin is the engine and the world will build many different layers on top of Bitcoin and layers around Bitcoin. These layers will completely enclose the Bitcoin engine protecting it.

The Bitcoin engine will power everything on top and around it. You will not even be able to destroy Bitcoin without destroying the layers first.

Satoshi Nakamoto left us the engine. It's up to us to build around it. There is no need to change it. It will power the world for decades to come.

Doomers gonna doom

Scale Issues aren't good only in form of DDOS...

wise words, a product evolves as it grows

Because this socialist can't figure out essential aspects of his ambitions he feels entitled to the outputs of other members of some larger group, in this case "humans".
