      Doing payments first is the way to avoid the rapid growth problem entirely (and depending on your service, spam problems). I charged a tiny signup fee for Pinboard purely as an anti-spam measure, but it ended up getting me endless free publicity. 2009 was a different time.https://twitter.com/RoamResearch/status/1257849892434669571 …

      We planned on turning on payments in February, but didn't want to put engineering effort on payments when we had critical issues coming up due to rapid growth (which started in feb) But each fix brought more users, and new problems. Now thinking this may have been wrong call. https://twitter.com/jmow/status/1257842549529571328 …

      Online is still such a different mindset. No one opens a pizza restaurant giving away slices for free hoping they'll grow quickly enough to become a large chain. But that's still the default business model in VC-saturated computerworld.

      Here's a nice summary of how the process works. You create something with enough buzz to attract the magpie attention span of a VC, who then gives you a fortune. It's a peculiar high-touch luxury sales model, one even more specialized than enterprise https://medium.com/@jmj/investing-in-roam-research-d8038971e871 …pic.twitter.com/Vq5ZHL1rI8

      This is the part people misunderstand about the tech economy. The Juicebro was laughable as a mechanism for extracting juice from chopped vegetables, but as a mechanism for extracting money from flattery-prone investors, it has rarely been excelled. The product was a side effectpic.twitter.com/v0wa7PruWe

      To understand the startup economy, you need to look at it as a form of performance art, targeted at a very small market of idiosyncratic art collectors. Part of the culture of this art market is not breaking kayfabe, and pretending that everything has a real world growth story.

      Because you're targeting art collectors, the important thing is to tell them stories about the world that *they* find credible, whether or not they're real. And they want to live in an exciting sci-fi world of tomorrow, or at the very least, be admired for their mental daring
