Dagens afsnit er en special, da Henrik er syg. Til gengæld får vi selskab af en af Danmarks mest markante tech-profiler: David Heinemeier Hansson, der er vendt hjem efter 20 år i USA. Han er en af de få danskere, der har sat et globalt aftryk i techverdenen med Ruby on Rails, som udgør rygraden i blandt andet Shopify og GitHub. Nu er han tilbage for at give en opsang til Danmark og Europa, som ifølge ham har tæt på intet at byde på, når det gælder tech - og som har gjort sig pinligt afhængige af USA. Vi diskuterer også, om Googles tid som vores allesammens port til internettet er ved at rinde ud. For første gang i 22 år faldt brugen af Google i Safari-browseren sidste måned. I stedet søger flere mod AI-chatbots. Men hvad betyder det for internettet, som vi kender det? Til sidst vender vi Trumps ustoppelige kærlighed til deepfakes og AI-videoer. Verden forarges gang på gang, når han deler billeder af sig selv i pavens klæder - eller Gaza forvandlet til en Trump-riviera med sandslotte og palmer. Men hvorfor forarges, når ingen kan være i tvivl om, at det er satire? Og hvorfor hopper folk i fælden hver gang med forargelse? Værter: Marcel Mirzaei-Fard, techanalytiker, og gæst, David Heinemeier Hansson, techiværksætter og stifter af 37Signals.

Hace unos días la empresa 37Signals publicó una vacante Junior con un salario de $145 mil dólares; muchas personas mencionaban que esto era un engaño incluso algunos Seniors quisieron aplicar, veamos un poco de esto.Enlace de la vacante: https://apply.workable.com/37signals/j/A97E298621/Sígueme en redes sociales:- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CodigoConJuanTuts- X / Twitter: https://www.x.com/codigoconjuan- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/codigoconjuan

Ryan Singer is one of the earliest employees and the former Head of Strategy at 37signals (the makers of Basecamp), where he spent nearly two decades refining a product development approach that helped the company build super-successful products with small teams. Based on these lessons, he wrote "Shape Up: Stop Running in Circles and Ship Work that Matters," and Ryan now works with companies of all sizes to them them escape the cycle of endless sprints, missed deadlines, and dragging projects.What you'll learn:1. Why traditional Agile and Scrum methods often lead teams into endless cycles of work without meaningful shipping milestones.2. The “appetite-driven” approach to product development where teams set fixed timeboxes (usually six weeks maximum) and vary the scope instead of expanding timelines.3. The exact process for running effective “shaping” sessions that collaboratively define projects before committing resources.4. Why most teams struggle with too little detail in their planning, not too much.5. Why a 30-to-50-person team size is the critical breaking point when growing startups need to adopt more structured processes.6. Practical techniques for bridging the engineering-design divide by bringing technical and product perspectives together earlier in the process.7. The powerful “breadboarding” and “fat marker sketching” techniques that help teams align on solutions without getting lost in high-fidelity details.8. The clear warning signs that your current development process is failing before it's too late to change course.9. Proven strategies to implement Shape Up methods, whether you're working in a startup or enterprise environment.10. A step-by-step approach to transitioning from Scrum to Shape Up by piloting the methodology with a single team before broader implementation.11. Why the PM role shifts upstream in Shape Up, focusing more on problem definition than project management.12.

In this greatest hits episode of Confessions of a B2B Entrepreneur, Tom Hunt is joined by David Heinemeier Hansson of 37signals (Makers of Basecamp + HEY). David shares his journey bootstrapping a business in the tech industry, debunking a few audience-building myths for marketers, how he overcame Apple's threat to launch Hey, and how he maximizes their profitability by selling a service rather than monetizing their products.

Jason Fried is the co-founder and CEO of 37signals, makers of the popular Basecamp project management software, which is still growing and very profitable after 20 years. He is going long and still having fun as an engaged CEO, building great products with great marketing that stands out. Jason has long advocated for software founders to avoid VC funding and build sustainable businesses that are great for customers and generate healthy profits for the owners. His best-selling book, Rework, shared his practical approach for entrepreneurs. In this wide-ranging interview, Jason discusses these important topics: How the core principles of Basecamp remain focused on simplicity and essential tools for project management after 20 years. Why Basecamp targets small businesses, avoiding the enterprise market that many competitors chase. Why software should fit the needs of the user, rather than forcing users to adapt to complex tools for big companies How profitability, not growth, provides the freedom to innovate and explore new ideas. Why competing against your costs is more important than competing against other companies. How small teams have the agility to win against big companies. Quote from Jason Fried, co-founder and CEO of 37signals “My sense of independence has always been important to me. That's why I became an entrepreneur: to do things the way I wanted to do them. Otherwise, why be an entrepreneur? It's true when you work, you're working for your customers. That's always going to be true. But you still have a sense of independence. You get to make your own decisions. “What people don't realize is when you raise money, you don't really work for yourself anymore. You really don't. You work for someone else's schedule, for someone else's fulfillment, for someone else's return. That never appealed to me. “I want our products to explain themselves. I want our success to explain ourselves. I don't want to have to explain myself on a quarterly basis to somebody who's trying to get a return out of me. I'm not interested. So for all those reasons, it just wasn't right to raise big funding.” Links Jason Fried on LinkedIn Jason Fried on Twitter 37Signals on LinkedIn 37Signals website Basecamp website  HEY website Ruby on Rails website Podcast Sponsor – Full Scale This week's podcast is sponsored by Full Scale, one of the fastest-growing software development companies in any region.

Guest: David Heinemeier Hansson, CTO & co-owner of 37signals and creator of Ruby on Rails 37signals CTO David Heinemeier Hansson has organized his life around his passions: Writing, racing sports cars, and coding. “ Why aren't we all doing that?” he wonders. “Why aren't we all trying to optimize our life in such a way that much of it is enjoyable?”Part of the problem, David argues, is that it's impossible to find a creative or productive flow inside of mainstream work culture. Open offices, managerial over-hiring, and sloppy scheduling prevents people from reaching a flow state.“40 hours a week is plenty than most people,” he says. “... So many people today are focused on just adding more and more hours. They're not thinking about how those hours are spent.” Chapters:(01:19) - 24 Hours of Le Mans (06:48) - Amateurs in sports car racing (10:54) - Flow and meditation (15:25) - Mundane bulls**t (18:14) - Optimizing for flow (21:09) - Calendars and open offices (24:30) - Full-time managers (29:06) - Small companies (32:20) - Selfishness and work (40:21) - Taking other people's money (45:43) - Temptation (49:49) - Moderately rich (55:19) - “The day I became a millionaire” (58:56) - The hassle (01:03:58) - Achieving the dream (01:08:34) - Shopify and Tobias Lütke (01:14:50) - Trade-offs and downsides (01:18:43) - The impact of Ruby on Rails (01:22:02) - “I love being wrong” (01:25:37) - DEI and illegal drugs (01:29:49) - Not hiring (01:30:35) - What “grit” means to David Mentioned in this episode: TikTok, Minecraft, Mario Kart, Formula One, NASCAR, Lewis Hamilton, the NBA, Tesla Model S, Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Steve McQueen, Jason Fried, Tetris, Bullshit Jobs: A Theory by David Graeber, Elon Musk and Twitter, the Dunbar number, Zappos, Google, Adam Smith, Stripe, Meta, Jeff Bezos, Basecamp, Zapier, 1Password, GitHub, SpaceX, private jets, Aesop, the Pagani Zonda, the Porsche Boxster, Lamborghini, Coco Chanel, LeBron James, Hey, Steve Jobs, Michael Arrington and TechCrunch, Y Combinator, Dr. Thomas Sowell,Punished by Rewards by Alfie Kohn, Grit by Angela Duckworth, and LEGO. Links:Connect with DavidTwitterLinkedInConnect with JoubinTwitterLinkedInEmail: grit@kleinerperkins.com Learn more about Kleiner PerkinsThis episode was edited by Eric Johnson from LightningPod.fm

The findings of a recent report highlight the challenges faced by C-suite executives regarding aging IT systems amidst a surge in AI adoption. While 90% of executives believe their technology is top-notch, nearly two-thirds acknowledge that outdated infrastructure poses significant issues, with many critical IT systems nearing the end of their life cycle. The report also reveals that although 75% of organizations are investing in AI and machine learning, less than half report a positive return on investment, raising concerns about cyber attack preparedness among executives.The episode also delves into a growing trend of cloud repatriation, as organizations grapple with unexpected costs and performance issues in cloud environments. A recent IDC report indicates that 50% of companies spent more on cloud services than anticipated, prompting some to transition specific workloads back in-house. The case of SaaS company 37Signals, which plans to save $10 million over five years by moving away from cloud services, exemplifies this trend. Sobel emphasizes the importance of differentiating between various levels of AI adoption, noting that many organizations may only be conducting small-scale experiments rather than full-scale implementations.Host Dave Sobel highlights the rising threat of voice-based AI scams, referencing a study from the University of Illinois that demonstrates how OpenAI's ChatGPT-4 can be exploited for financial scams with success rates between 20% to 60%. Additionally, he discusses a new threat campaign where hackers impersonate IT support on Microsoft Teams, urging organizations to implement training programs to raise awareness of evolving social engineering threats. The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has also issued warnings about a large-scale spear-phishing campaign targeting federal executives, emphasizing the need for protective measures.Finally, the episode covers significant developments in automation and AI within the managed services sector, particularly at DattoCon, where Kaseya projected that up to 70% of repetitive tasks performed by managed service providers will be automated by 2026. Sobel also discusses Runway's innovative AI tool that customizes outreach to potential clients, reflecting a broader trend of leveraging AI to optimize sales processes. The episode concludes with a discussion on the general availability of Windows Server 2025, which introduces significant advancements and is positioned as a robust solution for on-premises and hybrid cloud deployments. Four things to know today00:00 Kyndryl Report Reveals Struggle with Aging IT as AI Adoption Soars but ROI Falls Short, Fueling Demand for Service Support04:18 Voice-Based AI Scams Rise as Study Shows ChatGPT Vulnerability; New Tactics on Microsoft Teams and Spear Phishing Surge06:20 At DattoCon, Kaseya Emphasizes Automation as Core to MSP Efficiency, Parallel to Runway's AI-Enhanced Sales Tactics08:50 Microsoft Launches Windows Server 2025 with Hybrid Enhancements as KnowBe4 Unveils New Security Training Post-Breach  Supported by:  https://www.huntress.com/mspradio/https://mspradio.com/engage/    All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

Neste episódio do Product Guru's, Paulo Chiodi e seus convidados, Rodrigo Yoshima e Pablo Silva, exploram temas profundos sobre o mercado de tecnologia, gestão ágil e produtos no Brasil. Rodrigo Yoshima, uma das maiores referências em agilidade, compartilha sua visão sobre o cenário atual, discutindo a crise da agilidade, a falta de objetividade nas métricas e a necessidade de as empresas apresentarem resultados claros. Ele aborda também a mudança no mercado global, desde a abundância econômica dos últimos anos até o recente enxugamento de liquidez, destacando como a transformação ágil se tornou uma despesa "cortável" nas empresas. O episódio também analisa a importância de uma gestão orientada a resultados e a cultura empresarial que pode ser essencial para a sobrevivência em tempos de crise. /// Onde encontrar os convidados: Rodrigo Yoshima | CEO, Trainer & Coach @ Aspercom https://www.linkedin.com/in/rodrigoy/ Pablo Silva | Head de Produto e Engenharia - Plataformas de E-Commerce e Fraude @ Ifood https://www.linkedin.com/in/souopablosilva //// Conteúdos mencionados no episódio: Cursos de Produtos da Aspercom: DCV: https://aspercom.com.br/treinamentos/dcv/ MCV: https://aspercom.com.br/treinamentos/mcv/ Livro: https://aspercom.com.br/gpia Don Reinertsen: https://www.amazon.com.br/Principles-Product-Development-Flow-Generation-ebook/dp/B00K7OWG7O Livro da 37Signals: https://basecamp.com/gettingreal Steve Blank: https://www.amazon.com.br/Do-Sonho-Realiza%C3%A7%C3%A3o-Passos-Estrat%C3%A9gias/dp/8550810770/ /// Nesse episódio abordamos: • Rodrigo Yoshima critica a falta de objetividade nas métricas ágeis. • A crise de liquidez global impactou diretamente o mercado de agilidade. • Muitas empresas reduziram cargos ágeis por considerarem-nos despesas não essenciais. • Rodrigo acredita que a agilidade precisa demonstrar resultados mais palpáveis. • O excesso de modelos ágeis pode se tornar uma barreira ao sucesso organizacional. • A maturidade organizacional é fundamental para a implementação eficaz da agilidade. • O mercado atual exige uma abordagem mais pragmática para metodologias ágeis. • A cultura do "oba-oba" em agilidade está sendo desafiada por demandas de resultados reais. • Soluções locais e inovadoras podem ser mais eficazes do que copiar modelos globais. • O futuro da agilidade depende da sua capacidade de se adaptar às novas condições econômicas. /// Capítulos 00:00 Introdução 01:02 Apresentação dos convidados 02:53 Recados 03:41 Agilidade no mercado 06:36 O impacto da abundância econômica na agilidade 07:49 Crise na agilidade e transformação digital 10:22 A mudança de perspectiva dos executivos sobre agilidade 13:02 O futuro da agilidade e cenários possíveis 15:03 Discussão sobre a relevância da agilidade nas empresas 17:29 Relato de executivos sobre resultados insuficientes 19:58 Desafios da comunicação entre times ágeis e executivos 21:26 Dogmas e excessos na cultura ágil 24:24 Caso prático: Produto de sucesso no Brasil sem adoção de modelos globais 29:02 Comparação com empresas de grande porte como Google e Apple 32:01 Gestão de produtos e expectativas em tempos de crise 36:02 O papel da agilidade no crescimento sustentável 41:27 Reflexões finais sobre a evolução da agilidade 46:00 Crítica ao uso excessivo de metodologias ágeis sem resultados claros 52:59 Considerações sobre o futuro da gestão ágil e tendências emergentes 1:03:12 Maturidade organizacional e impacto na agilidade 1:12:02 Perguntas da audiência sobre agilidade 1:24:08 Encerramento /// Oferecimento Tera — Um novo futuro para sua carreira.

A company is essentially two things: a group of people and a collection of decisions. How those people make these decisions is the art of running a business (37signals). We make decisions every single day, it's what often dictates the direction of a business. Some decisions work out and some don't. Some are quick to make and some tough to call. You'll never be able to consider every single piece of data, analysis or consequence when making a decision - sometimes a decision has to be made from the gut. Legendary founder, Jason Fried is joined by SaaStock's CEO, Alex Theuma, to share his decision making philosophy and answer some of the biggest questions founders face today.Check out the other ways SaaStock is serving SaaS founders

In this episode, Kelli and special guest co-host Colleen McCreary go from 0 to 100 with David Heinemeier Hansson (DHH), creator of Ruby on Rails and co-founder of 37signals (Basecamp). The discussion covers 37signals' radical policies and the “no politics at work” policy that got them canceled on Twitter after corporate America “went woke”. They also discuss the no managers rule that embraces more efficiency in a limited 40 hour work week and why overworking is a dated mindset. David also talks about his love of programming and the development of Ruby on Rails through his unique approach, and how it went on to impact other programmers.Share this with your friends, forward to your enemies.

Jason Fried (37Signals) recently published an open challenge to the software subscription model—their stance is that customers should once again be able to buy and own software products. To pay for them once and own the source code.We discuss both models' pros and cons and speculate why Jason and the 37Signals teams introduced this strategy and manifesto. Here are some of our key takeaways:In the last few years, many software companies were able to get away with neglecting the second “s” in SaaS (service). But given the state of the tech industry, that's now sometimes a determinant factor in whether or not someone continues using a product. We talk more about this in episode 44.Whether you sell software in a subscription model or through one-time version purchases or pay-per-update, there will almost always be a need for product innovation and support—to help customers succeed with the product and to maintain compatibility with hardware and browser changes. That can be paid for in service subscription fees (hence, the term, SaaS), or in other ways: for example, you could buy and own a software product, but the tradeoff is that you may need to coordinate and pay for server space, technical expertise to maintain it, and you're stuck with a single version. The software world has trended toward the first model the last 10 years, but now people are starting to challenge this concept. For many products that aren't consistently improving (or, in some cases, becoming bloated or harder to use)—customers often wonder, “What am I paying a continuous subscription for?” Supporting a pay-once model is an interesting positioning and differentiation play—and could be one of the underlying components of 37Signals' strategy. For customers who've ever felt burned by the traditional SaaS model, a product that supports a pay-once philosophy could help you stand out from the competition.___Links shared in this episode:37Signals manifesto: once.comT2D3 CMO Masterclass: t2d3.pro/masterclassSubmit and vote on our podcast topics: kalungi.com/podcast

Last year 37 Signals (makers of Basecamp and Hey)  announced they were leaving the cloud. I wrote about the decision, and wondered if they'd look back at this as a great decision or one they'd regret and backtrack to the cloud again. They planned to build their own tooling, buy a bunch of servers, and run their own data center (or rather, rent space in someone's data center). Recently there was an update, in an FAQ, about how the transition has gone. In short, very well. One of the founders, David Heinemeier Hansson answered several questions about the move and the financial status. They didn't hire more people, so their payroll is the same. They used a service to unpack and rack their servers, so they could just connect to them remotely and not deal with hardware. They built their own redundancy across two data centers where they rent space, and they think they will save well over $7 million in the next 5 years. They had a $3.2million cloud budget per year, so that appears to be halved (3x5=15 - 7 = 8ish) with their move. Read the rest of Re-Evaluating the Cloud
