Caring is the MOAT

Finding a problem you deeply care about is probably the most underrated part of building a business right now.

Here’s what I mean.

Software has become a commodity. Building it is easier than it’s ever been. The bar has genuinely never been lower. So the question is no longer “can you build it” but “do you actually have domain knowledge worth building around”.

And this creates two interesting things.

First, because anyone can build software, most people won’t bother. The motivation just isn’t there anymore. There’s no applause for shipping an app in 2026. It’s boring. It’s table stakes. So the entrepreneur who still shows up and does the boring execution work, simply because they care deeply about the problem, is going to outlast everyone else. Most people will quit. Caring is the actual competitive edge.

Second, people underestimate their own knowledge. If you know something deeply, it feels obvious to you. You assume everyone knows it. They don’t. That blind spot is actually where the opportunity lives. The fact that building feels easy to you doesn’t mean your target customer has the awareness, the clarity, or the critical thinking to solve their own problem. They need you to solve it for them.

And here’s the thing about “easy to build.” Yes, writing code is no longer hard. But figuring out what to build, how the workflow should feel, what the user journey looks like, what value you’re actually adding… that still requires a human brain. You still have to tell the agent what to do, same way you had to tell the computer through code. The bar for creativity has gone up, not down. Generic, mediocre products aren’t going to cut it anymore.

Once you have a real problem and a creative solution, it all comes down to execution. And execution is only sustainable when you genuinely care.

The real challenge right now isn’t building. It’s that you’re drowning in choices. Anything is possible to build, and it’s only getting easier. So you have to ask yourself, what domain do I actually feel pain in? Where do I see people around me struggling every single day? And is someone willing to pay for a solution?

That’s it. That’s the whole game right now.

Spent the afternoon on the [Rheinische Streuobstroute](https://www.naturpark-rheinland.de/streuobstroute) southwest of #Cologne Great #bike route (45 km, mostly flat), even though the number of orchard meadows we actually passed wasn’t that high. But we did crisscross the #Erft and passed a few #castle s, some with #moat s

[Перевод] Почему AI-стартапы растут в 10 раз быстрее, чем привычные SaaS?

AI-стартапы демонстрируют скорость роста выше 10x в год, что заставляет пересмотреть классические подходы к развитию B2B-продуктов. Простые демо создать легко, но превратить их в устойчивый бизнес требует новых стратегий и понимания изменившихся правил игры. 5 важных наблюдений в AI стартапах от Andreessen Horowitz

Мастерство копки. Или как создаются технологические рвы

Вы когда-нибудь хотели построить замок? Не знаю, как с замком, но я, как предприниматель, всегда хотел создать ров, который сможет защитить компанию от конкурентов. Ведь замок без рва и крепкой стены, это не твой замок. С каждым годом создавать продукты становится все проще и проще. Иногда я узнаю о совершенно новой, революционной технологии или стартапе, но чуть стоит копнуть, как оказывается, что еще пять-шесть стартапов делают примерно то же. А в мире, где много компаний делает примерно одинаковый продукт, примерно одинакового качества, и всего несколько месяцев отделяет первопроходца от последователей, компании должны существовать на грани рентабельности, но это не всегда так. И возникает вопрос, что же отделяет победителей от проигравших. Сегодня я попробую разобраться в этом на конкретных примерах технологических компаний и приемов, которые они используют. А именно в том, как создаются “рвы”, которые в мире называются устоявшимся термином moat .
